  • This has song (the live version) has always been my favorite Johnny cAsh song. This is the first time I see video of it. Just as I suspected based on the audience's cheers on cd, I somehow felt that the audience, convicted cons as they were, were made to feel Human and free, even if for only a short while.

    Cash won that crowd over.

    I guess what I'm getting at is , even though imprisoned and whatever their crime, a part of them can still be human; even if just for a moment.

  • "only the slaves and the imprisoned ones knew how to sing about the freedom. "
