I don’t know what Reznor and Cash’s relationship was, but that has to feel so surreal for Reznor. You never see older artists cover newer ones in general, let alone such a legendary country artist cover a young alternative rock artist. If I were Reznor, that would be the thing that lets me die happy.
Johnny Cash’s version of Hurt
Trent Reznor even said it’s no longer his (Trent’s) song

I’ve heard both versions probably a hundred times each and only hear Johnny Cash’s voice anymore.
Yeah he really brings feeling to this song
I had never heard Trent Reznor’s original or Johnny Cash’s cover so thank you for mentioning it. What an incredible music video!
