Hurt

Dude, I first heard that song/music video at an Athletes In Action training camp I went to in June of 2003 in Colorado. It was part of the videos they showed us during group time. As soon as I got home from the camp I downloaded that song. I was never a Johnny Cash music guy nor am now, but something about that song has made me like it.

I have seen "Walk the Line" but never knew the latest story of Johnny Cash's conversion. And after watching the movie, Hollywood didn't come within a ten-foot pole of mentioning he was a Christian.

I remember stumbling across this video on TV in college and was mesmerized. I don't know how you can watch it without getting choked up.

I liked "Walk the Line", but I'd be far more interested in what happened just after that movie ended. You're right that Hollywood didn't want to tell that story. I'll admit though, after watching the movie I do like some Cash, i.e. "Big River".

You're right, the movie kinda made me a fan of some of his music, probably because when I heard those songs before I had no idea who sang the song or who Cash was.
