When you sink up Johnny Cash’s cover of the Nine Inch Nails song “Hurt” with Westworld you get something really interesting.

There are a billion videos on YouTube where someone has paired their favorite show up with their favorite song. Some of these fan made music videos are well done, and some are not, but they do all start to run together after a while. So it takes a really special show and song mashup to catch people’s attention, and this is one of those.

One fan has combined scenes from the first season of Westworld with Johnny Cash’s cover of “Hurt” by Nine Inch Nails, and it’s amazing how well it works.

Check this out.

It’s like the song was made to go with Westworld.

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that’s real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar’s chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

“Hurt” can be interpreted as telling the story of Westworld.
