Oh, that's an excellent selection, and I'd not seen the video - although I've listened to the song numerous times. The song - much like Pavlov's Bell is kind of subtle on being about drugs or alcohol. It's the best music video by far of any of the above.
Also agree - it sends a chill up the spine, and pulls at the emotions in a way that not many songs do, because of who is singing it and how honest he is with the video. That's what I adore about Cash - he's honest in his performances. You know he lived those songs and feels them in his gut. My difficulty with some other performers, such as Aimee Mann, is I'm not sure I feel that same pathos and raw honesty.

I love that song. Forgot about it.
Thanks for sharing!
