Johnny Cash Personal Jesus: Spiritual Influence
Johnny Cash eminated a rustic, earthly, and humble spiritual presence. This aura made him an eduring-as-platinum popular and country singer and a deeply respected person in his own right. Johnny successfully batted his own demons by the spiritual power and presence of Jesus Christ and the unconditional love of his wife June.
This spiritual awakening culminated in 1968 at Nickajack Cave in Marion County, Tennesee. He entered the cave with intentions of suicide. He passed out, awoke, and had a deep change of heart. Thankfully, as a follower of Jesus Christ he would become more like himself, strengthening and purifying the everyman quality that made him such an endearing person.
Johnny Personal Jesus the Single
Johnny covered Personal Jesus (originally recorded by Depeche Mode) on American iV: The Man Comes around.
His textured voice and earthly style fits the cover suitably and continued his legacy of songs that included themes of loss, sorrow, and redemption in the human experience.
Of interest is to compare the great depth of character and unique tonal quality that makes this song much more compelling than, say, Marilyn Manson's Personal Jesus.
One might well say that in addition to Jesus himself, the song might fittingly be applied to second wife June, whose unconditional, redemptive love played a signifcant role in his recovery from drug and alcohol abuse.
Knowing the full meaning of 'Personal Jesus' I can't quite say that I fully love the song, but Johnny Cash Personal Jesus cover is my favorite of all who have attempted it.
By it, we're reminded that a man's credibiltiy in his work is linked to his character as much as his performance and product.
