You're joking, right? MJ did the orig...
Johnny Cash's cover of 'hurt' is totally overrated IMO. I just don't understand how it's better than the orig.
Muse's cover of House of the Rising Sun, or Feeling Good, they both fucking rock

Johnny Cash sings it well with passion rather than mumbling all over the place.
Full credit to the original though.

Lol, it's funny because I think the exact opposite; just an old man rambling. And I don't dislike Cash particularly, he's had some good stuff
