His best song since the Unchained record in my opinion.

    I had my doubts about the record but it is great, now that Johnny Cash mania is over it is only the real fans that will check out his newest music which is ashame because his last few have been some of his best work in my opinion, I would take the Unchained album over his greatest hits even.

    yes, it is a great song, but I would not say it's better than "The Man Comes Around". that song, "Hurt", "Sam Hall", "Delia's Gone" and "I Hung My Head" made that album probably the best he'd done since the 60s. and I love the cover of "Streets of Loredo" on that album too.

    here is "The Man Comes Around" for anybody who's not heard it. the way the volume builds up louder and louder is awesome if you're listening to it through headphones....... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUbCeRuhMvU

    Every time I hear this song I'm reminded of the Moby song 'Run On'

    Seeing as how it has a sample of the chorus. At least its pretty close, but no surprise that this 'folk' classic has different version of lyrics out there.
