Living after 00's:Johnny Cash-God's gonna cut you down

Johnny Cash este,pentru mine,singurul artist de dimensiunea si cu istoricul sau care face cover-uri net superioare originalului facandu-l pe ascultator sa uite de artistul care a compus initial melodia.Posesorul unor succese ca "Hurt" sau "God's gonna cut you down",Johnny Cash se poate mandri cu o abilitate muzicala in plus,pe langa vocea si talentul evidente cu care a fost inzestrat.
Extrasa de pe albumul American V:A Hundred Highways,lansat in 2003,"God's gonna cut you down" este un cover dupa un cantec folk traditional in America cunoscut si sub denumirea de "Run on" sau "Run on for a long time".

Fiind un cantec extras din discografia lui Johnny Cash,comentariile se pot opri la "genial" sau "superb",dar,in cazul de fata,videoclipul este punctul principal de atractie,in nici 3 minute de filmare vazand peste 20 de legende muzicale si,actrite si modele.Regizat de Tony Kaye si castigator al unui premiu Grammy,in "scurtul metraj" pe fundalul caruia vocea lui Cash aranjeaza imaginile alb-ngeru intr-un colaj perfect,regasim nume ca Iggy Pop,Keith Richards,Bono,Johnny Depp,Amy Lee,Anthony Kiedis,Adam Levine,Lisa Marie Presley,Patti Smith,Rick Rubin,Kid Rock,Sharon Stone,Brian Wilson,The Dixie Chicks,Kate Moss,Flea sau Billy Gibbons.

Versuri:

 You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Well my goodness gracious let me tell you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee talkin' to the man from Galilee
He spoke to me in the voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet
He called my name and my heart stood still
When he said, "John go do My will!"
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
