REVIEWS
Average points: 4.6 (Reviews: 10)
*****
uhh, die stimme!<br>DAS ist einer seiner echten klassiker..
******
I'd like to dedicate this to John and June, who helped show me how to beat the devil<br><br>Vielleicht deshalb so tief gesungen
*****
Über weite Strecken eher ein Sprechgesang als ein Song,<br>nicht mehr allzuweit von einem Johnny Cash entfernt....<br><br>Knappe 5.
******
Great
******
***
mehr gesprochen als gesungen…Country-Stück, das dem bisherigen Schnitt von 5.6 in keinster Weise gerecht wird, 2.75…<br><br>Soll ich das Stück sanremo weiterreichen?...
***
Ik hou ook niet zo van die opzegversjes.
***
▒ Persoonlijk vind ik de vrolijke, swingende: "Kris Kristofferson" versie uit januari 1970 door de op 12 september 2003 (71 jaar) overleden Amerikaanse countryzanger, gitarist, singer-songwriter, acteur en auteur: "Johnny (J.R.) Cash", net iets beter dan zijn eigen versie die hij enkele maanden later uitbracht ☺!!!

****
Wer bereits einmal durch Nashvilles Music Row schlendern konnte, wird dieser über weite Strecken sprechgesangsbasierten Hommage an Johnny Cash mit besonderer Aufmerksamkeit begegnen. Rein musikalisch ist Kristoffersons Reise an die Geburtsstätte der Countrymusik nicht imposant, aber allemal von Grund auf sympathisch.
