Dead Souls

Nope, Cash's version is objectively superior. It made it listenable rather than the original shitty song which is pure Hot Topic drivel.

reread the op

>there are people who still think this

retard

This. The original is frentic and anxious, vaguely sinister. The cover is just over the top maudlin for the retards who populate Sup Forums

You can't really be this retarded, can you?
Cash's last few albums were mostly covers of more recent artists.

NIN's cover was better I think.

But that does assert that the original is better.

This is the most extreme example of this ever:

This is the best version of Hurt, this is how it's supposed to sound, this is how it's supposed to feel.

heartbeats
no sad guy with a guitar will ever get close to the original

This is accurate. Trent's version (as well as his music in general) is cheesy, moody shit for cheesy, moody teens.

Johnny Cash disagrees. He literally called Hurt the greatest song about addiction that he'd ever heard.

He's just being humble. It would be in poor taste for him to honestly tell people how much better his rendition is.

You're silly.

I like Marvin Gaye but this version is just so much better

Most originals are better because artists usually aren't trying to one-up the original when they do a cover.

Holy shit I never thought I'd see this posted here. RIP Charles.
