Cash's American series of albums are the best work of his career.

Maybe also the hands represent the two sides of himself. He has an evil side-- as we all do-- and this lead him to kill and he did not resist the temptation (maybe a moment of temporary insanity) so though he's responisble, he's in some ways not. Just a thought.

I liked the video, the minimalism enhances the effect of the brilliant song quite well, the way it ambiguously turned mundane things like stretching and lighting a cigarette into praying and suicide was done superbly.

That's Johnny Cash? Not Nick Cave :S

MI TEMA FAVORITO DE NICK CAVE

Do you mean Dirt in the Ground? A great song definitely, right now my favourite Cold Cold Ground from Frank's Wild Years-particularly the Bridge School Benefit version with the Kronos Quartet (on youtube, and in my favourites if you're lazy)

You're absolutely right, I meant Nick Cave! But I suspect that subliminally I had the unperformed Waits version going through my head. That WOULD be something! My favourite Waits song ever was dust on the ground.

Umm...Waits didn't write the Mercy Seat-Nick Cave did, and I didn't know he'd ever played it either?!? But he's certainly a great writer, they all are.

I find Wait's version is so creepy that I wouldn't watch it after dark. Seriously, it could give you nightmares. I must say, the man's a great writer, even if this is the only thing he ever wrote.
