Does anyone else think that the original Hurt is much better than Johnny Cash's?
Not that I don't like his version, I just think the original is better.

We covered this before, can't find it tho...If the the guy who wrote it prefers Johnny Cash's version, who are we to argue

Here's the legendary Christy Moore doing his take on Hurt.

I am a big fan of Christy's,been to see him a few times,but no way does his version compare to J.C.'s

Here's Christy doing Shane McGowan's classic composition Aisling.

christy moore is just a man singing a song, johnny cash's version stops you in your tracks and you can hear the emphasis in every single word and phrase, you can actually feel cash's hurt as he sings it.

aye i know, complete p!sh, i just prefer cash's voice singing it, usually i would favour the writer, with the exceptions of dylan and willie nelson, everybody sings their songs better, now i can add moore, tho i do like his voice, its as good as its always been
