Aw hell, here we go (popping knuckles)

I Walk the Line (beautiful tempo)
Sunday Morning Coming Down (Kris wrote it, Johnny made it great)
Ring of Fire (has this been mentioned yet?)
Ragged Old Flag (makes a brother's chest heavy)
I Still Miss Someone (ditto)

Hell the entire Murder album, I'd cut off Folsom Prison Blues (over played) and Mr. Garfield.
i love the murder album, favorite song though is
dont take your guns to town
And super heroes come to feast. To taste the flesh not yet deceased and all I know is still the beast is feeding.

Can't believe I forgot that one on my list!
But the opening to I See a Darkness is "Well you're my frind, and can you see. Many times we've been out drinkin', many times we've shared our thoughts..."

I played 'Hurt' on the jukebox Monday night and and two pegged pantsed hiptsers whispered, "Isn't that a NIN song, blah blah blah". They received a mini-grip lecture about Cash and music in general. Yooths. Sometimes they need a little shove into great music. They were swayed I believe. Then again, kids don't always understand Bourbonese.
