    Yes. I got that one as well. But you don't have to be so fucking patronising about it.

    And MY point was, asking whether you live in the USA, if you ask people in this country who were old enough to remember (as apparantly I wasn't, but I remember just fine), they wouldn't know what the fuck you were talking about.

    Hmm.. good point. :cool:

    So why is everyone argueing here? It's a great song, the whole album is great..'In my Life' is also wonderful on it.
    And FYI, I'm not keen on NIN, I saw them in 1991 supporting Guns and Roses, I sat bemused...I thought they'd mic'ed up some builders back stage at Wembley stadium...sorry for being such a philistine.
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    'Mic'ed up some builders?' LOL sounds like a good description of Industrial music.

    Heh. Trent's a builder alright. Of an interesting universe of sound. I *really hope* people are checking out http://remix.nin.com I've mentioned it a couple of times, but don't know if anyone's spending time there. It is really cool. He has released INSTRUMENTAL versions of TDS songs. I am serious. (Wouldn't you like to hear vocal stripped off of The Becoming? off MOTP?) And you can download 'em for free. You can download any remix of any of the songs there. People are posting remixes of everything. You can upload remixes yourself for people to listen to and rate.

    On topic though, while Cash does a good job with Hurt, NIN Hurt will always be my favorite.

    Cash's version is great. I find a lot of his covers to be hit and miss though. When they work, they work but sometimes they fall flat, like Rusty Cage or Further On Up The Road.

    This might be the saddest song I've ever heard.

    Cash's version was on a college radio station I listen to today, and I thought of this discussion and realized I liked it better than I remembered. TR's is still no.1 though.
