Johnny Cash - Hurt
- I like Reznor's version of the song better, but Cash's video is the where it's at.

NiN ruined that song.

NiN (Reznor) wrote the song. Cash covered it.

I heard Cash's cover well before I heard NiN's version...

Then in that case Cash made it classic. Another song I never skip on my iPod.

Can you post the artists and songs? Don't have access to youtube at work. If I haven't seen the videos, I'll check them out when I get home later.

I'm not a huge fan of Cash's cover. Love the NIN version though.

I do like this quote from Reznor about the cover though.

Reznor said that when Rubin first asked if Cash could cover his song, 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."

Speaking of NIN, "Closer" and "The Perfect Drug" are tremendous videos.

Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice
Genesis - Land of Confusion

Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice

I was just about to post this one. Walken is my hero.

All of the TOOL videos are incredible... Sober and Prison Sex warped my fragile little mind when I was a kid!

And that Jamaraqui "Virtual Insanity" video will always be a classic.

More recently, I really like that video with the guys who dance all over the treadmills. That is cool.

Michael jackson - Thriller

the muic video that shaped more videos than any other.
