I've never gotten the appeal of Johnny Cash. I guess I'm just not one for Texican yeehaw mumblecore.
The fact that you pinned Johnny Cash down to some made-up and obviously very narrow genre shows you really don't know anything about Johnny Cash.
You don't sing duets with everyone from Bob Dylan to Tom Petty if you stick to a very narrow music genre.
I've heard enough Johnny Cash to know I don't want to hear anymore, or take any recommendations from his fans.
Have you? Because you described him in a way that sounds like you've only heard one or two songs he sang.
Probably closer to eight or ten. And that is absolutely enough.
I have my doubts considering how you describe his music. Would you call his cover of Nirvana's Hurt "Texican yeehaw mumblecore?"
I couldn't give the first two half-flaccid thrusts of a reluctant pity fuck.
Seems like you could since you're still talking about this. But it also seems like you know that the answer is that it isn't "Texican yeehaw mumblecore" and you'd have to say "okay, I guess I was wrong about that" or something of the like and admitting you're wrong in the internet is not something that can be allowed.
