They play Johnny's recorded version of "I've Been Everywhere" on one of the commercials on TV and radio now. In fact, I heard it today I think.
J. Phoenix sounded nothing like Cash...
I mean... no one ever has...

I thought the same thing about Reese... She sang a lot better than June Carter ever did.
If you had told me a year ago that I would own an album of Johnny Cash songs as sung by Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon I would have laughed, but the soundtrack is fantastic. Well deserved Oscar for Reese.
I prefer Brian Burns' version.
He could not sing worth . I have heard coyotes howling at night that sound better than Johnny Cash. I'm not denying that he was influential in field of music, but his vocal quality sucked ass.
That's funny. This is exactly how I feel about Bob Dylan.

Actually I feel that way about Bob Dylan too.
Dylan could sing decent when he wanted to (see the "Nashville Skyline" album), but in my opinion part of being a great vocalist is being distinctive, which Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan were.
Coyotes dont make noise. They just fist pump and make backwards seated shots from the free throw line
Johnny Cash's brilliance was in being a songwriter and styling his vocals to fit the mood of the song, not to be pop sing-songy.
I think Phoenix did a good job. I enjoyed the singing.
It's not like Cash was that great of a singer.
Funny stuff - critiquing the voice of JC, and his imitators.
DUDE, you are now the Weatherman, movie Critic and music Guru of this forum.
I'll give you the wether but music and movies, not to sure about that.
I liked the music from Walk the Line so much I bought the soundtrack and listen to it daily.
The songs are great I feel much better when Cash sings them.
OHHHHH, no doubt! JC was the man, both of them!![]()
Who gets that? If you need an explanation let me know.
I thought Walk the Line was a very good movie and i thought Joaquin and Reese did an excellent job portraying Johnny and June, respectively
I have a copy of it too.
It's good.![]()
Why do you think I changed my sig with Johnny on it. But I still think Terrence Howard did a better job with Hustle.
