Crickets / Music I hear that twain a-comin'
Posted by Miles Raymer on Tue, Jul 28, 2009 at 3:10 PM
You know how some cover versions are so good that they effectively steal the song from the original artist? Like when Jimmy Hendrix did "All Along the Watchtower" or Duran Duran did "911 Is a Joke"? (Kidding.) Well Johnny Cash just got his legend-of-country-music ass pwned by an androgynous five-year-old boy named Wesley. I will never again be able to hear "Folsom Prison Blues" without being reminded of this:
If you don't "AWW" at least once during this video you're a monster.
