once johnny cash covers a song, it becomes a johnny cash song...
Yeah hes great but I never thought of that song for him. Even if he did it in the last heyday of variety shows when country guys might be on tv and my folks were watching them all the time.
He owns Hurt, too, even though it was originally written and performed by some whiny rock star. He sang it with more genuine feeling. But I can’t agree that he took possession of Blowin’ In The Wind or It Ain’t Me, Babe. Those remain Dylan’s.
