Slayer en Pantera geweldig!!!! Megadeth ook soms ok hoewel Dave Mustaine wel een beetje een zure zeurpiet blijft dat hij Metallica uitgeflikkerd is.
Ook Carmina Burana geweldig, niet alleen Oh Fortna luisteren maar van begin tot einde!
Hier een mooie cover van Johnny Cash fan fantastische Industrial band Nine Inch Nails
En het origineel
Trent Reznor,frontman van NIN's commentaar op de cover
When Trent Reznor was asked if Cash could cover his song, Reznor said he was "flattered" but worried that "the idea sounded a bit gimmicky." He became a fan of Cash's version, however, once he saw the music video.
I pop the video in, and wow... Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps... Wow. I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine anymore... It really made me think about how powerful music is as a medium and art form. I wrote some words and music in my bedroom as a way of staying sane, about a bleak and desperate place I was in, totally isolated and alone. [Somehow] that winds up reinterpreted by a music legend from a radically different era/genre and still retains sincerity and meaning — different, but every bit as pure.
En dan hier nog een verhaaltje over Mark Romanek die de Johnny Cash video heeft gemaakt, kippenvel!!!!
Romanek filmed both Johnny and his wife June at their Nashville home for the singer's last video. They both died within a few months of its completion.
"Johnny's producer, Rick Rubin, played me this track long before its release and I was so struck by it I said, 'We have to film something to go with this.' I'm a massive Johnny Cash fan and had been lined up to shoot a video for him a few years before which Anton Corbijn ended up doing instead. So this time I made Rick promise me I could make it. He called me on a Tuesday and said, 'Johnny's going on holiday to his ranch in Jamaica on Saturday so if you want to make this you better make it quick.'
I'm someone who usually takes a minimum of two weeks to prep a video but this was Johnny Cash. So I jumped on a redeye to Nashville with my producer and a cameraman and arrived on Friday with no idea of what I was going to make. I looked around the house and made a few suggestions of where we might film Johnny performing. I was making it up off the top of my head. Then I went to the House of Cash Museum and found it in total disrepair.
There was no time to clean it up so I decided that I'd just film it, and Johnny, exactly as they were. He was no longer in his prime - he was fading and that was what I wanted to show. While I was filming the opening segment of Johnny playing guitar in his living room, his wife, June, came down the stairs and watched. The look on her face was so complex: full of love and pride and concern for her husband. So I asked her if I could film her too and she agreed. But the most important element was when we discovered a film archive in the museum. When we looked back at the rushes we'd filmed at the house we thought they were good but not great. But once we dropped in the archive footage of Johnny we realised that was the soul of the video. The whole thing was so spontaneous. It's made me realise that sometimes you can be too prepared and that there's some value to urgency."
