wfuckinga Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Mine is NIN's "Hurt" as covered by Johnny Cash, from Unearthed. It was the last recording Johnny Cash did before passing away. What's yours? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketan Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 (edited) i was gonna say the exact same thing. Love that cover. Apart from that, The Wallflowers doing Beatles' Looking Through You. Edited October 13, 2013 by Ketan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wfuckinga Posted October 13, 2013 Author Share Posted October 13, 2013 Hendrix did a great cover of that song, but Hurt sounds so great, it actually sounds like it was written by Johnny Cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
