Good pick. American IV is about Cash picking cover songs where he has accepted he will not win the battle with cancer. The album is somber, exposes a sensitive side of Cash, has tones of confessing sins, asking for forgiveness, and accepting father time is undefeated. Underrated.
I listened to these songs so far. I had to take a break because it's too early to sniff glue...
Kashmir by Led Zeppelin …..Certainly a dramatic song @Merlin
Paint a Rumor by the Eurythmics….Love Annie Lennox. I’m not high listening to it and so it’s not scaring me, but I can see how it might. Same with Kashmir. @XXXIVwin
Nothing Compares 2 U by Sinead O’Connor…. This one is a bit disturbing. She has a haunting voice and seems to be one step from choking a bunny like Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction.
Bloodrock by D.O.A…..This one is haunting to me. I’ve never heard it before even though it was made in 1971? Prolly a little dark for Casey Casem’s Top 100? @Force16X
Jeremy by Pearl Jam…. This is from my lost decade, the 90’s, and so I’ve never heard it before. A lot of teenage angst, for sure. @Neil039
Indifference by Pearl Jam….. More angst with certainly darker lyrics. @Neil039
He Stopped Loving Her Today by George Jones. I’ve heard this one before but never really listened to the lyrics closely. It is a very sad song for sure. @Selassie I
This one has always gotten me deep. I had always heard both ways that it was and wasn't about his son's tragic fall from 53 stories up. But, reading just now it seems it is in fact about his boy. He actually wrote two songs but this one is the one that broke big.
Warning: This is almost two songs in one. I am guessing most of you won't make it past the first minute or so, because... Heavy. But the lyrics crazy. Second part of it is like a nice balm for the first parts burns.
