Ambition

Well, this wins the weird album of the week award: Johnny Cash's "American IV: the Man Comes Around." Along with the usual stuff (finding dying men by the railroad tracks, accidentally killing folks with your brother's rifle, etc), Johnny covers The Righteous Brothers, Simon and Garfunkel, the Beatles, U2 and Depeche Mode. 'Reach out and touch faith!'

Ah, yes. One of my favorite albums ever. I especially like his cover of "Hurt" by Trent Reznor. Nifty.

Yeah, I guess when you have an amazing voice you can get away with mixing your genres!
