I Hung My Head was written by Sting, not Johnny Cash. And Hurt was written by Trent Reznor. But his cover outperforms Reznor's by a highway mile.

I honestly prefer the American recordings to almost all of his earlier works. America V - A Hundred Highways was easily his best album ever, and Rick Rubin is scheduled to produce another two posthumous albums.
