Every man could relate to him.  But nobody could be him.  To be that extraordinary and that ordinary was a real gift.  That, and his humor and his bare-boned honesty.  When I visited him at home one time, he said the most beautiful, poetic grace.  He said, “Shall we bow our heads?”  We all bowed our heads.  Then, when he was done, he looked at me and said, “Sure miss the drugs, though.”  It was just to say, “I haven’t become a holy Joe.”  He just couldn’t be self-righteous.  I think he was a very godly man, but you had the sense that he had spent his time in the desert.  And that just made you like him more.  It gave his songs some dust. And that voice was definitely locusts and honey.  As for “Hurt,” it’s perhaps the best video ever made.  I was telling somebody the other day, “We’re all sissies in comparison to Johnny Cash.”  And he was a zookeeper, too.  Did you know he was nearly killed by an emu on his property?  He told em, “That emu damn near killed me.  I defended myself with a post.”  But he was laughing as he told the story.  So Johnny Cash passed away after seeing off the love of his life. That’s such a different outcome than death by emu.  We should be grateful.  —Bono
