a really warm hearted and positive documentary about the power of music.
Made me cry several times.
And wasn't the Coldplay song (Fix You) great?

Both of those have the added poignantcy of Cash's cover of hurt.

I'd missed this (Being one of those odd non-telly owners) but those two clips are remarkable.

Cheers for the linky Kev.

THe nature of the group added a dimension to 'Fix you' that was wholly absent from the original.

Not an easy watch for me, since it put me in mind of my desperate attempts to find a 'cure' for my dad during his last illness... In the end all I could do was get them undertake to put the morphine up and sign off to withdraw feeding and on a DNR notice.

On a less maudlin note... it's amazing how age of performer can add depth to a song.

Trent Reznor refers to 'Hurt' as a song that "isn't mine any more"... the Cash version took it from him..

From Wiki

"[...]In an interview with Alternative Press, Reznor admitted that when Rubin first asked if Cash could cover his song, he was "flattered" but worried that "the idea sounded a bit gimmicky." The power of Cash's cover didn't fully hit Reznor until he saw the video:

I pop the video in, and wow
