Johnny Cash died just a few months after recording this, and his wife shortly after. When his daughter heard the song, she told him that it sounded like he was saying goodbye through the song. He said, "I was."

[@simonsayla6267]

His wife died first. Then a month or so later he passed.

[@uwescholer8791]

This was his farewell song to the world, it hits you straight into the guts. 😢

[@SarahDengler]

It’s gut wrenching

[@magic8ball1982]

When his daughter Rosanne first heard this song, she told him it sounded like he was saying goodbye. He told her he was.

[@p.j.morris]

it was his goodbye and his epitaph @@magic8ball1982

[@bradenconway9066]

Yup, he definitely one upped nine inch nails and Trent Reznor said it was Johnny’s song after this

[@fedupwithem6208]

I'm a 47 year old man and it sends tears down my face every time I watch this video. I miss Jonny Cash.

[@simonsayla6267]

So do I

[@LemonSquezzed85]

As it should. I'm 38 and it tears me down too.

[@MattJocks]

To me, the most impactful moment is seeing his wife watching him from the stairs, and the pain on her face reflecting Johnny's pain. As it turned out, she died before he did, but not by much.

[@michaelhayes7471]

It's hard getting old all my friends are dead most of my family it's real hard

[@fedupwithem6208]

Trent Reznor wrote that song in 1994 but said it was Jonny Cash's song and always will be.

[@pamagnolia]

This is such an awesome song full of so much pain, regret and loneliness. Gets me every time. Your reaction was beautiful and touching.

[@SarahDengler]

Thanks so much Pa, it’s too powerful

[@michaelgarden6554]

To end a legendary career with such a perfect song is a beautiful thing. The last thing he recorded was as memorable as any of his hits. A story teller through and through.

[@ChuckRagland]

It's so amazing! EVERY SINGLE person who has reacted to this video, Rock, hip Hop, country, Young, old, male, female, White, black, it doesn't matter, Tears!! THAT'S the GOAT!! Of Music videos!!

[@Jessedog11]

One of the best things i personally loved about Johnny Cash was is honesty of who he was. a deeply Flawed man- who didnt try and hide it- from his time serving in Prison to his drug problems- he didnt run from it- he shared his struggles. he owned them. RIP Johnny- I love you!

[@eversolooney]

he never served prison time

[@danieldickson8591]

@@eversolooney True. But everything else Jessedog said is true.

[@TanukiSC]

It’s ok to cry. I do every time I hear this song and see the video. Johnny said goodbye through this song. And it connects with me so much. Addicts and those who seek peace through the pain understand. Thank you for doing this.

[@recabitejehonadab2654]

Quite a song, I’m glad you watched it to the conclusion when he closes the piano. Very impactful.

[@michaelwalker5257]

As powerful as it gets. One of the best covers of any song, ever. I cry most every time I watch it. And this may be my favorite of your reactions. Thank you.

[@b.war.8651]

Always brings a flood of tears to my eyes when I hear and see this song... a man sharing such raw naked truth.

[@simonsayla6267]

Exactly

[@caroljshepherd3848]

Lovely, empathetic reaction. It's a hard one to watch, isn't it? ❤

[@SarahDengler]

Absolutely, thank you

[@zippymacadoo6336]

Yep, right in the feels. This was written originally by Trent Reznor for Nine Inch Nails. Trent says the song now belongs to Johnny.

[@NiF617]

his version of this song makes me cry every time i hear it. It hits me so closely, and personally. I have said these words myself a few times. God bless Johnny Cash. A true rebel

[@bradjenkins932]

Johnny Cash is a CLASSIC!!

[@jdw9397]

Incredible reaction to a an incredibly powerful performance. I tear up every time I watch it. ❤️

[@SarahDengler]

It’s so powerful

[@alonzocoyethea6148]

This song hits close to home..Lost 3 people, ( Including a woman I loved) to drug overdoses and had to watch them go from good people to hard-core junkies who wound up dying alone. Ironically thier passing gave me even more incentive to leave drugs and people that use 'em alone..Like Cash sang, You can't get close to them--They'll bring you down with them.

[@garynoslen1980]

Wow😢 men cry too❤

[@simonsayla6267]

That was his farewell song. A few months after this video was filmed, June Carter Cash passed away and just a couple of months later Johnny followed her home.

[@SarahDengler]

So sad

[@peteford2434]

I've watched some other reaction videos to this and you seem to be the only one that really really gets it. I reached that level of understanding of what really matters too, awhile ago. I'm surrounded by so many people that haven't reached that stage in their lives to see and feel and know what truly matters. A lot of the things people worry about and what they think they want, isn't truly what they need. It's much deeper than that. Anyways... good thoughts sent your way from Toronto, Canada. Keep doing what you are doing.

[@DazzleMonroe]

I inherited a few Cash albums from my blind Aunt in the early 70s. They had Braille stickers on so she knew what the record was. I grew up knowing all his songs, then he made a comeback in the 2000s with several amazing albums. I was absolutely overjoyed. Then, he was gone. I was drinking coffee in a café when the news came over the radio. What a genius we lost that day.

[@user-ox4ss2wv1c]

Thanks for showing us your heart.

[@dagmar.6954]

This song was originally written & performed by "Nine Inch Nails". It was written about drugs & depression. But Johnny Cash's version is considered the best. His version is more about regret for past mistakes in life & realizing material things & fame mean nothing in the end. When the video was filmed in February 2003, Cash was 71 years old & had serious health problems. His frailty is clearly evident in the video. He died seven months later, on September 12 & his wife, June Carter Cash, who is shown gazing at her husband in two sequences of the video, had died on May 15 of the same year.

[@SarahDengler]

🥲

[@Fergie74]

I never knew this was a Nine Inch Nails song-thanks for the info

Thanks Brad

Us who have battled addiction feel abd live every word of this song. Mine was alcohol but you realize the loss when you finally are free but you remember everything.

[@piergiorgiosartoni1506]

Grazie Sarah.... 😊 Thanks from Italy

[@dianasheart]

You are so sweet. Thank you for sharing this and talking about it. I grew up listening to Johnny Cash.

[@TedHuppert]

For this song and for your reaction, I wish there were something two or three notches above LIKE (THUMBS UP.) I enjoy and respect all your reactions. I hope you keep going until I die--I'm 74, so maybe fifteen or twenty more years. I always look forward to your notifications. Thanks!

[@SarahDengler]

This is so nice 😊 thank you so much 😊🙏

[@rescuetweak]

Ultimately his version of the song revolves around the ageless truth that “Only one life, it will soon be passed, only what’s done for Christ will last.“ Johnny Cash and his wife believed that entirely and saying about it often through their lives. The part of the song where he shows his greatest anguish is along with the images of Christ being nailed to the cross, salvaging the lives of all of those who would believe. Johnny Cash was one of those. Thanks for the wonderful reaction. And remember that only Jesus, who existed long before the Universe that he created, along with the God the Father and the Holy Spirit hold the Keys to life and death and eternity. Even in his struggling with regrets and sin Cash knew this redemptive truth and his life has now been salvaged as anyone’s can be if they are willing to humble themselves in the sight of the Lord and call on His his name.

[@allanjolley]

your reaction sarah is why i watch these reactions

[@JuandeFucaU]

I grew up in the 60's and Johnny Cash was the Elvis of country music back then..... funny how the only time I ever hear his name now is because of this song.

[@richardhargrave6082]

Trent Reznor wrote it and they say he was annoyed that it was covered by a country singer. He saw the video and said that its Johnny's song now.

[@federalist46]

"My empire of dirt", says it all.

[@johntiggleman4686]

There is nothing new under the sun. Everything is just chasing the wind.

[@Halfnhalf76]

Makes me hurt so much for him!!

[@Richieb1774]

I wonder if when he sings the line what have I become my sweetest friend , He is kind of like asking Jesus.

[@craigmcallister2310]

You are very perceptive. Thank you for the video.

[@tonydelapa1911]

I have seen many reactors interpret and discuss it in fine detail. Yours was rhe finest, Sarah. Thank you for your impassioned discussion of it. I am adding this to my folder of Exceptional Reaction Videos. Such a thought provoking and emotional song.

[@SarahDengler]

Thanks so much Tony 🙏

[@patcow9999]

Song gets me in the same way as you did just now, every time I watch this video. It's a great song as is the original by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails.

[@1STlilone]

You should watch the movie about Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash. It helps to understand his life and how it changed when he met June Carter.

[@robertberger5639]

I love your reactions.

[@SarahDengler]

Thanks Robert

[@FiremanSam60]

It's such an incredible overpowering song (cover version of a Nine Inch Nails song). Cash's interpretation utterly pulls you in, but the video is just unbelievable. It's the coolest thing I've ever seen.

Sarah! Long time! Good to see you're still posting. Loved the reaction. You're gorgeous! :)

Thank you for breaking down.. i broke down with you..macho man crying here.. lots of hugs, wish i could give you real hugs.. mucho love sent your way.. 👍

[@keith6485]

"He doesn't recognize himself". You hit on something I have not gotten from any of the other dozens of reactions I have watched to this performance. As we get older, and I am not all that many years younger than Johnny was when he recorded this, it does seem that we no longer know who we are. Looking back on our hopes from so many years ago, and looking at who and what we were in the past, it doesn't seem to match up anymore with who we are now. That old worn down guy I see in the mirror is not someone I ever imagined I would become. But here we are. And what have we really accomplished along the way. Building our empire of dirt? What a waste of the time we have been given. One of the saddest aspects of life is that, for too many of us, wisdom comes too late to put it to use.

[@LemonSquezzed85]

Ohhhhh.... It's a hard song to listen to.but its a reality check to me.makes me cry once in a while. I brace myself a lot after this song. It's needed. Thanks John

[@kathiyow6801]

Johnny cash was one of the greatest ❤. Love this song so beautiful ❤.....and sad..but so true..

[@cornpope1832]

This made me cry too. Your videos!

[@Paskaloth]

It's a hard lesson to learn at the end, to not lose who you are chasing the dreams of others because by the time you do, that's time you never get back!

[@randyjohnson6960]

Was singing from his sole😢

[@BahamaWynters]

From his feet and all the way up then out to us.

[@jefflaclair62]

I'm pretty sure he wrote this song for his true love, most of us can only hope and dream to love as much, I'm 90% sure this was a homage to June Carter which he hurt and regretted to his actions and the consequences we can only hope to love as much

[@SonnyBarnhart-ec7qn]

This song always strikes me through the heart. I feel his pain, as do so many others even if they cannot admit or realize it. In the end only compassion for others matters, everything else is fading dust

[@garcemac]

Trent Reznor wrote this song. You might want to compare the versions. Even though Trent wrote this - and it was a great song - He always said that Johnny Cash's version was better. A great song will always be a great song. Love from Ontario Canada.

[@garcemac]

What have become My dearest friend Everything I loved goes away in the end And you can have it all. My empire of dirt. I will bring you down. I will make you HURT. Love you. Go bless.

[@garcemac]

That is his wife. June Carter Cash. Sarah all love from Ontario Canada. I despise "reaction" videos. They are all contrived. But you are honest. I will shut up and go away now.

[@wiseblood90]

It's originally a nine inch nails song.when trent heard this version he said it's his song now not mine

[@peterbland7227]

He didn’t write the song The composer wrote this song about addiction. After he heard this version said that it is now Johnny Cash’s song.

[@brucelyon7524]

Speaking of Dust in the Wind check out the song Dust in the Wind by Kansas. Every bit the toe tapping good time that Hurt is, ok less crying than hurt but still.😢

[@wls1020]

It's a very sad song and very emotional 😢 nine inch nails did a cover of this

[@gisobo]

Kind of. The Cash Version feels like an original, while it is the cover.

[@carolsakaguchi3739]

Sarah, I think he was mourning the loss of his beloved wife. Our loved ones are the most important but we tend to take them for granted.

[@dstrong86bluecoffee]

There is a HAPPY ending to Johnny's life. Johnny Cash became a Christian (was born again see JOHN 3:3) in the second half of his life, which is why we see Jesus at the end of this video. -- Johnny's headstone reads: Meet Me in Heaven. Johnny and his wife June would perform at Billy Graham Crusades -- Read the article Johnny Cash’s Faith and Friendship With Billy Graham by Joy Allmond --- Jesus bless you

[@djgrant8761]

Have a listen to Johnny Cash singing “Man in White”.

[@Svendsor]

I'll give you a great reaction video tip. Watch Disturbed - Sound of Silence (Either the studio version or the live one on the Conan talk show). Many reactors have done it and I think it'll be a boost to your channel :)

[@TheItoogami]

Johnny Cash left us, the human race, a simple truth. You may gain and acquire great wealth, fame and fortune - but you must also realize it's not worth squat if you are not cognizant of your personal impact on the world. Not just your immediate surroundings but the WORLD AS A WHOLE! The natural flora and fauna. The world as a whole depends on how we humans treat and utilize the natural resources of "Spaceship Earth!" And we humans depend on what our planet can provide. As far as "WE" know the nearest planet that may sustain life, "as we know it," is approximately 125 million light years away. You think you can survive the trip eating your billions? The TRUE question is: Are you brazen and willing enough to pass on a decrepted world/planet to those that shall inherit this "Empire of Dirt?"
