Johnny Cash’s "American V"

I’ve been listening to Johnny Cash’s American V: A Hundred Highways, and all I can say is “wow”.

From now on, if I ever meet up with anyone from an emo rock band, I’m making him or her listen to any of its tracks — perhaps the cover of Gordon Lightfoot’s If You Could Read My Mind — and say “Hear that, poseur? That is what heartbreak really sounds like.”

Here’s a CNN piece on the making of the album.
