Neil Young - Needle And The Damage Done

There's space in everyone's music collection for a little Neil Young. One of the greatest song writers to ever grace this little world of ours, who's never scared to write songs about political bullshit and stupid wars, and of course drugs.

This tune is about the nasty effects of heroin, as Neil says at the start "a lot of great artists get effected by it, and a lot of great art does down the drain because of it.

I also love the Johnny Cash intro...
"These young minds will be our leaders in the future, they will be our science, our arts, our crafts, our politics, our music. And now our music comes form such a brilliant mind such as singer/songwriter Neil Young".

Johnny Cash - Hurt

This has to be one of the greatest covers of all time. Johnny Cash doing Nine Inch Nails song Hurt.

It's such a powerful film clip of an old and tired Cash looking back at his long and crazy career. The retrospective clip is made even more haunting by the fact that this was recorded by Cash less than a year before he passed away and the song became one of his final hits.

Mr Cash you were one crazily awesome man.
