He changed some of the lyrics I thought and I realize it's a cover.
Think again, the lyrics are the same.
However, in the context that Johnny sang it, it certainly was a country song.
This is incorrect as well. The thread is for COUNTRY SONGS and "Hurt" is not a country song simply because Johnny Cash covered it. Even if there was some validity to the argument that since a country singer covered it, it made it country, it falls apart because Johnny Cash wasn't only a country singer.
Oh, and blah Taylor Swift.
Nice. Why do you have to denigrate my choice? Pissed off because I brought up that "Hurt" isn't a Country song? Or just a hater and can't stop yourself?
