Just Because. . .

Just Because:

This is the most powerful music video ever made and probably validates the genre in the last 10 years. (can't think of many more redeeming examples recently)

Just Because:

Rick Rubin makes you feel the truth and grit in Cash's vocals with this production. Also, if anyone can let me in on how he recorded the piano and cellos on this track. . . . I'd love to know, it's amazing.

Just Because:

The cut backs to Cash's career are chilling,. . . his t.v. show, his rugged good looks, his vanity. And, then the imagery of a man months away from death.

Just Because:

You don't often get a song stolen from you. . . but sorry, Trent Reznor, you (unwittingly) wrote that song for Johnny Cash. It's his.

Just Because:

Psalm 90:12 "Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom."
