Music - Johnny Cash


OK, so he didn't shoot a man in Reno just to watch him die. He did sing about it though. His music was written by a man for men and not in the way that "It's Rainin' Men" or "In the Navy" was written for men. He likened falling in love with a woman to falling into a burning ring of fire. Amen, Johnny. Also, how many artists can lay claim to a more manly nickname than "The Man in Black"?

I concur whole heartedly. Haunting voice, real life pain.
