And I wouldn't mind the cover if I didn't feel NIN's version was disrespected as a result of it/mixed up as being the cover itself.... I mean, hell....it was a HUGE pat on the back for Trent, from Johnny that he wanted to cover that song...who would have guessed Johnny Cash was merely familiar with NIN tunes?!?!?!

Really like NIN and not much of a Johnny Cash fan but his cover is really damn good as is the original. Hardly ruined the song for me and just amused when people don't realized the source. Similar amusement from Reznor being an Academy Award winner.
