Reach out and touch faith. Cash could sing the phonebook and make it work. [3]

I love Depeche Mode and the original song. I grew up loving Depeche Mode. I'm a DM fan. However I always go back listening to Personal Jesus cover by Jonny Cash. It's so soulful, deep and personally feels spiritually. Love it, thank you Johnny.

"Regardless of which cover(s) or version(s) you prefer, Johnny was the original, and a valuable pioneer of music in his own right." Umm, no. Depeche Mode wrote this song.

I've never understood people who feel the need to publicly rank songs they are familiar with in order of popularity.

Regardless of which cover(s) or version(s) you prefer, Johnny was the original, and a valuable pioneer of music in his own right. Honestly, sometimes his voice is the mooing of a morose cow to me (depending on my mood), but the man was a visionary, and legendary. His songs are pure art and storytelling, and he proves that raw simplicity and emotion move people. He continues to do it after all these years :)

DM treats the song with cool electro rock. Another good cover is [artist]Fielfraz[/artist]s [track artist=Fielfraz]Personal Jesus[/track], which treats the song as a straightforward rock song. Cash treats the song as a deathbed hymn. All great´and Kudos to Martin Gore for the composition

Agreed with everyone here. I love Depeche Mode...but come on. This cover blows the original out of the water.
