Its strange that he did this and the other covers.. I wonder how that came about...Just odd to thing that Johnny Cash would be sitting around listing to this song...
IIRC, it was his producer (Rick Rubin?) that would suggest these things to him.
"Vince, have you ever tried playing an expensive bass?" - Polarbear.
"And isn't that the finest acoustic bass guitar feedback solo you've ever heard?" - Billy Moose.

Hurdy Gurdy.... some how... and I'm not entirely certain how mind you, an instrument that sounds like someone has shoved a nest of angry hornets into a goose with a kazoo bill and is randomly slapping the poor creature with an accordion.... Sounds amazing.

Heartbeats - Jose Gonzales (The Knife)

Teardrops - Jose Gonzales (Massive Attack)

Richard Hung Himself - Slayer (D.I.)

Dissident Aggressor - Slayer (Judas Priest)

Astronomy - Metallica (Blue Oyster Cult)

Remember Tomorrow - Metallica (Iron Maiden)

Massacre - Iron Maiden (Thin Lizzy)

Evil Women - Black Sabbath (Crow)

Warning - Black Sabbath (Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation)

Eat It - Weird Al Yankovich (Micheal Jackson) Except for the solo. Van Halen's one is tasty on the Jacko original.
