resurrectionsongAugust 25, 2003CNN PollRight now, at this very moment, CNN is running a poll asking people which of four songs is Johnny Cash's best. Out of the nearly 15,000 votes that have thus far been cast, 44% of them have been for "Ring of Fire", 26% for "I Walk the Line", 18% for "A Boy Named Sue", and only 12% for "Folsom Prison Blues." This is a travesty. "Folsom" should be winning hands down. I can understand "Ring of Fire" being right up there, but to be beat out by "Sue" is just plain wrong and "I Walk the Line" might be better than "Sue", but that's not saying much. Damned, evil, non-correctly voting people. Go vote for your favorite. But please don't vote for "Sue." Posted by zombyboy at August 25, 2003 11:37 AM | TrackBackComments
My vote would be for 'Ring of Fire", but what about the much newer "Delia's Gone"? Golly, I think that's a good one. Posted by: Jo at August 25, 2003 11:40 AMAnd yes, I'm twisted, I know. Posted by: Jo at August 25, 2003 11:41 AMI wouldn't vote for "Delia's Gone", but it's a damned good song. And twisted in a nice way, but definitely twisted. Posted by: zombyboy at August 25, 2003 11:44 AMI know Cash songs only because 120 Minutes played a few of them (including "Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone") back when he toured with Lollapalooza of all things. I found the tunes pleasingly off-kilter and inviting. Of the four in the poll, I've only heard the the two that have the most votes. Hmm... Posted by: Kevin White at August 25, 2003 11:47 AMI had to vote for "Ring of Fire." Not only is it my favorite of the ones listed, it's the one that Social D covered. I've gotta agree with Mike Ness on this one. Posted by: StumpJumper at August 25, 2003 12:19 PMWhile I still think "Folsom" is the best of the songs, "Ring of Fire" isn't far behind. And that happens to be one extremely kick ass cover by Social D. Posted by: zombyboy at August 25, 2003 12:22 PMPost a comment
