and when they covered Bowies, The Man Who wold the world.. but hey thats just me lol

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: New York | | | i disagree with teh johny cash version of hurt being better.
the nine inch nails version has so much more feelign put into it. the johny cash version was only good when paired with the music video showing hsi life, imo.
i find that i prefer most beatles songs when covered by other artists.
