[1960-1964 Best Songs]
Billboard Top 100, 1963: #80
You know that guy in the Dos Equis commercials - "The Most Interesting Man in the World?" He's a Johnny Cash fan. That's because The Man In Black is just cool. He's really too cool for country music.
Likewise, Ring of Fire is almost too cool a song to be a country song. Johnny says, "Yes, those are mariachi trumpets behind me. Is there a problem?"
"No sir."
His voice is like aged scotch. You may not be a whiskey drinker, but if somebody offers it to you, you don't turn it down.
