Cash's cover of "Personal Jesus" is good, but a bit weird. What do you call something that subverts something subversive into its mundane or square meaning? The Depeche Mode song was subverting the trope away from its religious meaning, and Johnny Cash reversed that.

Ironically enough, I'm listening to Marilyn Manson singing "Antichrist Superstar." :D Go figure. (Then again, I *like* Marilyn Manson because I *get the joke*. ;) )
