day 225: Thirteen

Thirteen, by Johnny Cash.

Um, I think this is the first post in this project to really require a disambiguation section, maybe? Because this song is one Johnny Cash recorded, after (I assume Rick Rubin?) asked Danzig to write one for him. So it’s a Danzig song, but not really a #cover-of-a-cover? Says a lot of good things about Danzig that it sounds like an old standard, and obviously the kind of thing Johnny Cash would sing.

But also, I think it might be the first song in this project to repeat a title from a previous song? I haven’t been keeping track.

And, yes, it’s Friday the 13th, which I didn’t (consciously) notice when picking this from a list of songs on American Recordings (vol. 1), or playing it.

Also, yes, back home with the black hat, and resolving to switch back to the real microphone and whatnot. Tomorrow. Probably.
