NIN: probably the angriest thing I've ever heard. A masterpiece
JC: probably the saddest thing I've ever heard. A masterpiece

Ok that's actually an excellent description of both songs!

Sure but hurt isn't angry at all. It's mournful and regretful.
The meaning of the song didn't really change with the artist, just the specifics of the loss and regret

The anger of the original is aimed internally. It isn't a loud blaze, but old embers. It's still hot, it's just not flashy.

You don't have to be screaming to be angry. Hurt is a different anger, more mature

Fair enough .
The language/tone/ message of the song ( as I understand it ) Lacks anything I would attribute to anger in that sense though. Subjective to a degree I suppose.

NIN, looking forward
Cash, looking back

Only music video I cried like a baby to. It's absolutely heartbreaking.

Wanna have a good cry, listen to My Immortal while applying its message to someone you love

Someone will disagree but I think JC's "Hurt" cover and his cover of "If You Could Read My Mind" by Gordon Lightfoot are on equal...... footing ...
That was not planned. I just kinda backed myself into it.
