Perhaps Tent Reznor thought the same.
I agree, kind of annoying that the person that wrote the song doesn't get credited for what was said.
In fairness I do believe Johnny somehow managed to do it better, but credit where credit is due.
Said this before on this platform, opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. It's your opinion that you think Johnny's version is better.
I like both versions of the song. They have a different delivery.
For what it's worth, Trent Reznor likes Johnny's version better
Not until he saw the video. He originally said after listening
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurt_(Nine_Inch_Nails_song)
Some people are into that. Who's to say Reznor wasn't?
Trent liking a cover version more doesn't mean Trent didn't write the original lyrics.
When did I say anything about who wrote the lyrics?
I too like both versions, and actually writing such a powerful song is something Trent deserves huge credit for. Talent all round.
I don't know how to speak music, but I'll try. I think the dissonant notes together with i believe micro tonal pitch bending (maybe I don't know i have bad pitch) in the original better illustrate the discomfort of Trent very poetically.
Also Cash sensoring the original lyrics is okay, but it doesn't deliver has hard.
Don't get me wrong, both versions are beautiful, and this is just nit picking
I think that Cash's slow delivery, acoustic guitar, and deep, raspy voice, better delivers the despair and loneliness of the song.
the best cover of any song ever
I still prefer Kermit's version.

Wow
Even putting aside the music, that video is incredible.
Darth Kermit?
That’s only because the US version of Further Down does not contain the live version, which is the best version.
There's a lot of those. Patti Smith's "Because the Night" is better than Bruce Springsteen's performance of the same. Leonard Cohen has a voice that's something of an acquired taste, so most people prefer Jeff Buckley's version of "Hallelujah".
Patti Smith also had an excellent version of "Teen Spirit", but it's more of a different take than better, I'd say.
*Trent Reznor's camp brother.
I have been in an all out war with autocorrect over the last 24 hours. Appear to have lost that particular skirmish without even realising it.
