They are both great. Johnny’s is definitely more than ok. Even subjectively speaking. You can say you dont like it, or it’s not for you, but objectively, it hits many nails on many heads and is an excellent version. Im not a fan of either band/artist. NiN has some great songs that i have heard. Johnny cash does, too. Hurt is definitely one of the best from both (of what i have heard)
I’m willing to say definitely that if you like the original, you have to like the remake. The only exception is if you’re trying really hard to show your NIN Fandom. But if you relax that instinct for 1 minute, you will like the Johnny Cash version.
We all know it’s Johnny Cashs song now though.
Trent Reznor even said so.
Trent is wrong, the original is better. Johnny’s is ok.

im not really a huge fan, ive listened to some of their stuff and liked it, and the original much better.
would you say it hits the nine inch nail on the head?
His version is better yeah
And I am a NIN fan through and through, this isn’t even a competition when Trent changes his version’s lyrics to match Johnny’s
