what I found so far....
Johnny Cash delves into an eclectic collection of songs for
American IV: The Man Comes Around, his new album for
American Recordings/Island Def Jam. Set for Nov. 5 release,
the 15-track album includes Cash's versions of Hank Williams'
"I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry," Simon & Garfunkel's "Bridge
Over Troubled Water" and the Beatles' "In My Life." Cash
also covers Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus," Nine Inch Nails'
"Hurt" and Sting's "I Hung My Head." Eagles founding member
Don Henley makes a guest appearance on Cash's version of
"Desperado." The project features other guest appearances
from Marty Stuart, Randy Scruggs, Fiona Apple, Nick Cave,
Billy Preston, John Frusciante (of the Hot Chili Peppers)
and Benmont Tench and Mike Campbell (of Tom Petty & The
Heartbreakers). Cash also recorded three of his own songs
-- "The Man Comes Around," "Tear Stained Letter" and "Give
My Love to Rose."

Ha ha!

"Tear Stained Letter" is a Johnny Cash song?
Cool!
I've heard it done by Jo-el Sonnier(sohn-yay) and Richard Thompson.....separately, of course.

Here's a refresher:

PERSONAL JESUS

Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who cares
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who's there

Feeling unknown
And you're all alone
Flesh and bone
By the telephone
Lift up the receiver
I'll make you a believer

Take second best
Put me to the test
Things on your chest
You need to confess
I will deliver
You know I'm a forgiver

Reach out and touch faith
Reach out and touch faith

Your own personal Jesus...

Feeling unknown
And you're all alone
Flesh and bone
By the telephone
Lift up the receiver
I'll make you a believer

I will deliver
You know I'm a forgiver

Reach out and touch faith

Your own personal Jesus...

Reach out and touch faith

I heard the man in Black's version of "Your own personal Jesus" yesterday. It wasn't my favorite Johnny tune, but it's pretty good. Kinda made me laugh alittle.

Johnny Cash has been covering so called "alternative" songs for several years now. His album "Unchained" has a Beck cover, "Rowboat", and a Soundgarden cover, "Rusty Cage", among others. Cash does a good job of making the song his own, as opposed to simply replaying someone else's song.
