Johnny Cash's version of NIN's hurt is. I always liked the song but it gives me shivers when Mr. Cash sings it, especially watching the video.

When the original is a piece of garbage then it's not hard to beat it with an acoustic twist on a cover.

OP, that was terrible, sorry but I couldn't get through much. The original is only successful because of the catchy tune and I suppose uplifting beat. This version has none of it, focuses on the lyrics which were terrible to begin with.
Johnny Cash one, can't stop watching it.*Knee Draggers Crew*

Yes.
It'd be like staying fat while running marathons because it's more impressive to finish a marathon when you're overweight. It might be impressive in the short run, but in the long run it just doesn't make any sense. ~breathinglife

Spiderbait's cover of "black Betty" I can't post the video on my iPod.

And, while I like Johnny Cash, I'll go against popular sentiment and declare that I prefer Reznor's original version:
