| + | [[Category:Disambiguation]] |
− | Hurt has been covered by a variety of artists, such as Matthew Good, [[Peter Murphy]], and Sevendust. The song gained popularity in 2002 when it was famously covered by Johnny Cash, at the recommendation of producer Rick Rubin. This caused a lot of confusion for the audiences of Johnny Cash, who generally weren't familiar with the work of Nine Inch Nails, often resulting in miscrediting the song to Cash. In Cash's version, the line "crown of shit" is changed to "crown of thorns", but is otherwise unchanged.
