Maully Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 [color=darkblue]Johnny Cash, one of my favorite musicians EVER, died last night/this morning. I think he was very influential, in many music genres. I just wanted to know if my admiration was shared, tell me what you guys think of the man in black.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 This is news to me. At least he got one last album out before he passed away. I never heard anything off of it, other than that Hurt cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satan665 Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 he was really great. His last cover album was really depressing though, I think after his death its going tobe hard to listen to. Cash is just great because he always wrote songs about killing and death back in the days where people were even more conservative than they are now. One of my all time favorites of his was his cover of Rusty cage by Soundgarden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NashvilleDream Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 Johnny Cash. I remember, about a year or two ago when I first got into country music, he was one of the first names i ever knew, and one of my favorites. Early this year, when his wife died, I began to really get into him. He's one of those peole that no one can forget once they've heard him. I don't believe there's a name in country music that dosen't know his name. He truly was a legend in his time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PiroMunkie Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 [size=1]I heard about this earlier today along with the death of tat one guy from [i]Three's Company[/i] or whatever show he was on. People kept saying that this other guy's death was more tragic than Johnny Cash, but I would not believe them. Sure the other guy was younger, but I doubt he had anywhere near the credibility that Johnny Cash had.[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pagan Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 I wasn't a Johnny Cash fan myself, but my parents loved him. They were going to name me Johnny Cash but thought I wasn't worthy of the name. He was a great artist I really liked his new song. My mom cried today when they gave him a memorial today on TV. I'm suppose to be going to his funeral; to pay my respects to the man who made my parents conceive me. They met at his concert. I will miss him dearly.

Maully Posted September 13, 2003 Author Share Posted September 13, 2003 He died from complications due to Diabetes (sp). He was sick for a long time before he died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snufkin Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 I actually have an online friend who was distant cousins with him. It was really saddening when she found out that he had passed away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I, Colossus Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 Man, that presentation on his life on VH1 followed by the "Hurt" video was tear jerking. I personally didn't cry, but I wanted too. Johnny Cash is the original bad *** who wasn't afraid to push the limits. He will be sorely missed.

Semjaza Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 Think what you want about John Ritter... but he rocked in Three's Company as well as that really cool animated movie, Flight of Dragons. Has anyone else seen that? Ritter was only like 54. I believe he had a heart attack on stage for his new, apparently successful sitcom (although I didn't care for it). It was almost like a comeback for him. It's more tragic in the sense that it was very unexpected compared to Cash. On top of this, I believe his best friend had died in close proximity to his death. That's a bit much, I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved his new album, and now I think it's about the perfect way to go out, for the man in black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
