What is The Man Comes Around about?
🎶 The Man Comes Around song analysis
The song is about a man who takes names and decides who should be blamed or released. Not everyone will be treated the same when he comes. There will be trumpets, angels singing and many people walking when he comes. He who is unjust will remain so, and he who is just will remain so when he comes.

Johnny Cash - Short Biography

John R. Cash was a famous American country singer-songwriter who often incorporated themes such as heartbreak, moral tribulation, and redemption into his music. Known for his deep, calm bass-baritone voice and his band Tennessee Three who accompanied him with frenzied guitar rhythms, Cash was a dynamic performer who stood out for his all-black stage attire, which earned him the nickname of "the man in black".
