Stevie Wonder

now...johnny cash wrote the song as he has done for many artists. he had also performed it in 91, though its not on any cd i could find.
In high school music i did a 10 page essay on him...
i dont want to start a fight. NiN is a great band, and im not doubting their talent but the song was sold to them by cash...

Well seeing as you have no proof, I'm inclined to believe that Trent Reznor wrote it.

Also, if you look in the NIN CD cover, it should give credit to Cash if he wrote it. You may have to read all the fine print, but It should be there somewhere...
Either that or on Cash's album cover.

Nine Inch Nails (trent resnor being the only definite member of the band) wrote the song Hurt, which was then covered by Johny Cash a year or so before his death.

I'am positive.
