Frodo and I often wonder if the celebrities in the video recognize themselves as the ones who Cash was talking about... spiritual poverty just as devastating as physical poverty. There are a couple there I am pretty sure know who the song is about (Bono, for one, and I think Courtney Love, for another... she's the one crying), but I wonder if the others completely grasp the symbolism of the shots they are part of... like Woody Harrelson in a scene which seems to be screaming "baptism." (We all "get it", the message, on some level.) The imagery in this video makes it one of my favorites of all time. I also like his video to "Hurt", but I can't watch it often 'cause it always makes me cry.<BR/><BR/>I also forgot the irony of Secondo's choice... it's actually a Cash cover of a SoundGarden song. I'll have to play the original for her and see if she still likes it. :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11249055928245806106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12593028.post-21107961583977672292008-07-12T11:00:00.000-05:002008-07-12T11:00:00.000-05:00P.S.

He is singing right to them, LOL!<BR/><BR/>This is one of Kyle and my favorite renditions of this song, but the video gets on my nerves. I bet Johnny Cash would grimace if he saw it.Angel at Aduladi'https://www.blogger.com/profile/13008952584983502510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12593028.post-18262321688507872662008-07-12T00:00:00.000-05:002008-07-12T00:00:00.000-05:00We are big Johnny Cash fans here too!AND..."Jackso...We are big Johnny Cash fans here too!<BR/><BR/>AND..."Jackson" just happens to be MY favorite as well! :0)<BR/><BR/>Magnus loves "Ring of Fire" and the <BR/>"rusty cage" one.<BR/><BR/>Thane loves "I've Been Everywhere".<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the videos!Brittneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15947360705474886266noreply@blogger.com
