      Whoops. I believe this was in the Coachella coverage by the Press-Enterprise.

      Funny they don't know (or bother to check?) that Trent wrote the song, and it made it into the mainstream in an amazing cover by Johnny Cash. :)

      dutchboy: "hurt" was nominated for a grammy. i think that counts as "mainstream media".

      A grammy? C'mon.. unless it's top 40, most people (obviously) don't remember! Plus, the radio play Cash's version got way exceeded trents.. I love both versions.. picked up "With Teeth" today too. :)

      I don't know what everyone is so upset about. I'm sure Johnny would have loved to have known NIN was doing a cover of his song.

      is it so hard to believe that johnny might have been inspired by trent. It's a great song even johnny had to admit that. It's not like NIN is all just noise for younger listeners. He is the next great musician of our time, whether or not he focuses his attention on the youth or not. Sorry to burst your bubble.

      @dragai: if that was meant for me, I know. I was being sarcastic. :-)

      Actually, I fell in love w/ Johnny Cash when I saw an interview w/ him on the Today show several years ago. He was asked what was his favorite musical influences today, and tops on his list was metal group "Iron Maiden" as well as a few other things you'd never expect. I've respected the man deeply ever since.

      Cash does a KILLER version of Danzig's "Thirteen" too.
