You do not defeat terrorism by rewarding terrorists, regardless of how many bleeding heart liberals argue otherwise. Want to know where that flawed approach leads to? Read UNIONISM DECAYED 1997-2007 - It's my first book and it explains what happens when you seeek to appease terrorists and call it peace. It's available right now for ATW readers so make sure you get your copy by emailing the editor! This is the book that dissents from the herd mentality that doing wrong can lead to being right. It doesn't and this book spells out WHY.
"I do remember... the corridors of Broadcasting House were strewn with empty champagne bottles. I'll always remember that", Jane Garvey, BBC Five Live, May 10th, 2007, recalling May 2nd, 1997.

This song and the video are haunting. Cash was literally on his last legs when he recorded the record and it was amazing.
Oh David, thank you. I loved that so much.
Just beautiful David. I prefer late Johnny - the more mature he got, the more emotion his voice contained. Reminds me of late Billie Holiday oddly enough
It's a great song, great images and his voice is full of emotion. I agree with Sara that the older he got, the better he got. I'm working on the same philosophy...!
A very moving and most excellent song (and video) from a most excellent artist. Of course, one of his greatest contributions to music was writing Big River which was then covered (and infinitely improved upon in my opinion) by the Grateful Dead.
You posted this video a while back?
Not that there's ever enough Johnny Cash. I've always liked his music and respected the man.
When he died, I remember Dolly Parton saying that his influence would only grow.
Christian. American, Citizen of the world. Man.
Claimed by liberals and conservatives but vastly beyond both.
Years ago, as a boy I visited by aunt in Brooklyn, I remember hearing "Ring of Fire" playing on the "hi fi' system.
Last year, when I visited my buddy Doyle in Dublin, he had a biography of Johnny Cash on the table.
Tomorrow, I may stop at the "Raccoon Lodge" bar in Manhattan, where Johnny Cash songs are some of the most often played on the MP3 juke box.
I tip my glass to Mr. Johnny Cash.
Phantom,
Yes, sometimes I will re-post the really great songs as they can all stand it. Also, what I post tends to be what I am listening to, and I have my own eclectic musical repetoire to indulge!!
