Nine Inch Nails - Head Like A Hole

[TheNineinchsnails]

even today i still find this video unique and cutting edge

[djghostaxel]

better than todays crap xd

[insectstorm0]

well said todays music is just so terrible!

[misterk81]

For something that was produced 20 years ago, this song doesn't feel dated at all. At least, not to my ears it doesn't. Such an innovative sound for 1989.

I was 9 years old when this album came out.

[nthOracle]

I like this version, but I much prefer the AFI cover. It definitely sounds harder than this.

[dueyfinnn]

i think this song sounds as current today as it did back in the 80's

[gadoran5]

This music is way better than anything coming out today. imo

[johnwash10]

I just heard about NIN, but honestly a little too 80s. I'm freakin' 11 years old and already know about music. And NIN is great, but I don't like this song. Maybe if he revamped it. 2/5

[Cmccoy07]

joshwalsh this was made in the 80s. .still got a lot to learn buddy

[KevinCanada87]

So 80's yet still my favourite NIN song. I've seen it like 4 times and it was fucking amazing.

[fetalbetal]

owl sound effect sped up?

[midgetmayo]

awesome awesome awesome song, put it on fullscreen it's mad fuzzy

[narutoabridgedfan18]

it gives it the 80s feel if its fuzzy,shows how old it is

[briani4735263]

Political arguments: the scourge of the Comments field. You're all gonna get what you deserve.

[PrinciplesOfLust21]

I was goint grazy on this music back back when it came out, I come from Hungary, and I still. listen to it, when I want to rebel against the system!

[Xboxdude3801]

im tryign to get my schools basketball team to coem out to this song

[rnkemp105]

you should just come out first and maybe they will follow

[blackumyheart]

its always going to be my fave song of NIN i love Trenz Reznor he's amazing

[4175JT]

Awesome Song :)

[wiki01234]

man the orginal is so much better then the AFI version

[batyellofish]

the "original" is by DEVO

[voododude443]

the original is by nin, Devo covered this song

[veprman]

Sounds a lot like Spiritual House by KMFDM in certain parts.

[hatfisc]

both bands make good use of the synth. Its been years since i've heard spiritual house, thanks for the reminder.

[six1971]

This song is NOT ABOUT BDSM. This song is about Trent Reznor's old manager of his band. But I do agree with you that Obama/Bush need to be off the page of the music video of one of my favorite songs and bands.

[GothGaara92]

Bow down before the one you serve

You're going to get what you deserve

[meimsupafly]

damn this should be a rock anthem !! love ittttttt

[joshe81234]

very good song¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[iCanbEYOURrUKIA]

Ahaha, wow man.

[FOXMANMUSIC]

This song put Trent in the mainstream. Awesome song, the lyrics kick ass and the chorus explodes.

[Itachi62989]

this song never dies NIN is the best !!!

[RebeccaWhitten]

i love nin i would so fuck Trent Reznor i dont care i would

[r4scuache]

why cant they give us a high quality vid? nevertheless this vid kicks ass high quality or not. but seriously, best viewed in high definition.

[drogoscg1]

Frack polotics! Talk about how damn good the music is you trolling conservative Limbaugh dick succking Falwell cock juggling thunder cunt!! Go to aconservative website you fascist white anglo saxon neo nazi worshipping Hannity butt child!!

[jtsk8r111]

what i meant was why are these people talking about obama

[carltonbauheimer]

i always thought they said "Got money"

It totally makes sense that way.

[tallgrass69]

to in bloom, What was his name?

[InBloom10]

HER name was Courtney, smartass.

[tallgrass69]

I hope Kurt was'nt too pissed

[narutoabridgedfan18]

kurt was probably like Good Luck

[tallgrass69]

and hide the shotgun

[jtsk8r111]

how does this hav to do anything with obama

[Pounder73]

@jtsk8r111 it was recorded in the 80's so unless they had inside information from the banking elite, i doubt it

[InBloom10]

I lost my virginity to this song.

[Teymos]

this song took my virginity itself

[momattyfosho]

i dont care this song is allways going to be in my top ten

[TheGlearning]

Yeah you can't spend your way out of debt.

[Fatzombie1980]

wasn't this song use in pet sematary 2?

[61futura]

Clinton, Bush, and Obama all serve Wall Street.

[aron8011]

TRENT IS GOD!!!

[joesahoe09]

this song fits in perfectly with our government today. 1:59

[Infantry1982]

This song was ahead of its time. F'ing awesome!

[MCrowley555]

i don't know the meaning of the lyrics it's too straight forward but doesn't seeem like trent but still sounds good and cool music video

[MutleeIsTheAntiGod]

wow crowley, you do realize that this was one of the first NIN singles? Doesn't seem like Trent? LMAO, you really don't know shit about NIN.

[vegas98754]

shut up your not a real nin fan if you dont think this is like trent. this is like, the origional shit right here. this is what defined him.

not like trent......

[hog1775]

Ohh... nice. This is a tribute to Omaba.

Fucking idiot of a President

[DeAd4eva616]

lol typo.

Fucking idiot of a hog? :D

[idontcare80]

Obama is FAR from being an idiot. Bush was an idiot... to put it kindly.

[mythial]

yeah idontcare80 in 8 years Bush increased our national debt from 60% of the GDP to 70% and in 10 months Obama increased it from 70% to 90% and will be 100% by the end of next year by current forecasts. Sure hes not an idiot at all...

[idontcare80]

You're a moron. Why does everyone blame Obama for the current problems with the economy? The economy collapsed into shambles while BUSH was in office, Obama is just cleaning up after him. You can't expect a president to repair the damage caused by 8 years of shitty leadership overnight!

Although, (like 61futura said) big business OWNS this government, including Obama so no real change for the better will ever happen anyway.

[bdc03]

ur dumb try about 100 years of mismanagement. bush was a fascist obama is hardcore fascim. Watch "fall of the republic" on youtube.

[mythial]

The problems have gotten worse under Obama not better. The situation was bad under Bush sure and I'm not saying Bush wasn't an idiot I'm just not so disillusioned to think Obama isn't one too. We haven't had a decent president since Reagan.. at least he ended the Cold War...

[cuntdestroyer9000]

[thuggofdablock]

i remember growing up watching this shit man videos were way better back then

[lilfarvacola]

yeah growing up in the 90's were nice.

i wouldn't have it any other way !!!

[monroeguy82]

Nine inch nails and rage against the machine are two bands that do a GREAT job of expressing their anger towards people in their music. This song is a good today as when it came out.

[vegas98754]

hell yeah! music isnt the same anymore.

[kasatka9]

que le ves de emo wey? O_O

[JoseFruguletti1972]

ESTO ES EMO.

[Gamma412]

@JoseFruguletti1972

Muchas Annoying!

[CDurkan]

emocional~Si, call it Emo.. you might get beat up somewhere :)

[KeeN3080]

Damn This Song Brings Back Memorys Of Pretty Hate Machine (the Good Old Days)

Trents Music Is Still Good, But I Still Like Pretty Hate Machine The Best

[gwynedd1]

His music sounds like his cells are feeling his emotion. No one sells the mood better.

[foxwolf143069]

i remember when i first saw this,i woke up and it was on mtv and i got so freaked out i couldnt get to sleep for like 2 days! not even freedy kruger did that!

[Shadynevermind]

Its not subliminal messages... its SEMPTE Film Leader. Its the10, 9, 8... countdown at the start of every film for the projectionist. Head is the start of the film, Tail is the end. They just used it as a visual element.

[MBddd]

what a wierd video-clip, what was the meaning of it? :S

[soulbleed17]

wait i odnt get it at all whats going on here?

[Kreigshundun2]

huh huh HEAD

[agua4health]

wtf is with that video

[OwnagePlayer740]

Low budget, high profile type videos weren't that hot back then.

[OwnagePlayer740]

Also, the video has subliminal messaging, thus those words popping up.

[Shran1970]

If it was subliminal you wouldn't be consciously aware of those words.

[tushar310]

UMG has the crappiest video quality on youtube.

[OwnagePlayer740]

Amen to the second.

[sparkamnia]

wats that sound mean from 1:40-1:41?

[HEXT7547]

@sparkamnia

o.O I never noticed that until now. There are some similar sounds at the start, too.

[sleepinglionheartx]

This isn't twitter.

[sleepinglionheartx]

That shit doesn't work haha

[HEXT7547]

No shit, Sherlock. I wasn't doing the @ because I thought it would alert you. It's just showing I'm addressing you.

[trixtr95]

congrats ownageplayer, you know now why people say modern music SUCKS, because it does. lol. apparently when the turn of the millenium hit everything talent-wise went down the fucking drain and started back at square one.

[sleepinglionheartx]

Every generation feels that way about their music.

[trixtr95]

oh SHIT

does this mean that my kids will find deep meaning in lady gaga or some shit?!?!?!

[narutoabridgedfan18]

basically how you feel about nine inch nails, your kids will feel about miley cyrus and lady gaga

[SalvinTrel]

NOOOO!!!

[finnan0333]

It's really weird thinking 'bout that!:D

[iCanbEYOURrUKIA]

I second that, Miley Cyrus sucks lol. Lady Gaga is great though, I want her to sample a NIN song, that would rock so hard! With her weird techno shit and their amazing industrial sound, it's a match made in heaven.

[AndyAzz25]

lady gaga sux, i don't think that is even a lady. Listen to A.S.G. that is good music, the amplification of self gratification, feeling good is good enough, and win us over are some of the best 3 albums I've heard in a while.

[AndyAzz25]

listen to A.S.G. wilmington north carolinas finest

[beautyandsadism]

that's a scary thought

[OwnagePlayer740]

This is a song that was pretty popular when I was about 3, now I listen to 106.7 in Columbus and I hear all these hot songs such as Head Like A Hole, More Human than Human, Teen Spirit and many others. So surprising to know that these songs are from so long ago, they sound a lot better than some bands today.

[momotheninjagoddess]

I listen to 106.7 too! :O

[OwnagePlayer740]

It's only been around for what a year and 1/2? Awesome station, great variety of late 80's, 90's and 2k music. Literally the only station in C-Bus that plays that stuff.

[momotheninjagoddess]

I know! Every time I hear Nirvana I turn it up as loud as it will go!

[thessalonikiachick]

No you can't take it

No you can't take it

No you can't take that away from me

[stillmoonmachine]

Yes I can.

[thessalonikiachick]

Oh no you can't !!!! :P

[NobodyYou1]

Your SLAVEMASTER is in your head

[XxAnarchyUSAxX]

I've always been a NIN fan,this song just makes me wanna get all psycho and start scacificing some people to my lord satan,the one i bow down and serve!

[crustie1996]

Do you really worship Satan? I do.

[XxAnarchyUSAxX]

Yes i do

[rk696]

lol

[podesta0001]

lol, you do konw satanists dont worship satan?

[sleepinglionheartx]

They worship themselves, correct?

[podesta0001]

Yea.

[dex1lsp]

This is such a goddamn trippy video. Holy crap man.

[TheSituationNormal]

Haha 966 ratings

[KolomparPista]

Back in 92 I heard of this band called Nine Inch Nails here and there. Never heard any of their songs until one afternoon they palyed this video on Much Music's Power 30. I was absolutely blown away by the visuals, the extremity and energy of the music.

[lazavideoz]

great song, great writer.

[1Deadjunkie09]

Trent Is the man!

[fugitive247]

This song is simply perfect for current TT #cavity ;oD

[DropDeadModest]

Man that flashing makes me sick to watch but I still love this song.

[bigdsears]

I reccomend watching this vid out while on acid then it will all make sense. Specially the spinning skull

[Ibanezcustome]

nah man this would be the opposite of fun on acid... trust me!!!

[theXfaction]

I dont think you know what acid would do to you while watchin this video... Adding acid to the mix would just make you go insane!!! You would freak out and probably end up hanging from your refridgerator door screamin "HEEEEELP ME!!!!!!!!!!"

[bigdsears]

I watched this vid on acid when it came out in the 90's when I was in college. The colors kept bleeding off the screen and the spinning skull seemed like it never stopped. It was three strange days

[therez77]

woop-idy-doo-dah.

[bigdsears]

golly gee

[KolomparPista]

LOL! That's fucking hilarious, man! spinning skulls :D

[DvineINFEKT]

Happy Birthday to Pretty Hate Machine.

20 Years today. =)

[tigerdon007]

This is one BAD ASS Song!

[asswaterfly]

mead for all is the bestest

[mrbigmouth502]

This video kicks ass. ^^

[MGIH12RIA]

this song is beast, but the video is hard to understand

[Localulu27]

Still a good track

[MattMonk]

True fury.

[juanitageee]

favorite song<3333333

[poppymoone]

andyperkins.. neither are you if you are tripping and watching videos on you tube.. i would say trent is a WHOLE lot more impressive than you !! :)

[andyperkins99]

t0talli3z!

[Headstrong87]

Dude you're a botard.

[ClamCrunchy]

All bow before Trent Reznor, for he is whom we serve.

[LordCrazyMike]

I think its about a combination of things: Flaws in coprorate dogma, religion, and relationships. from what I know about this album, it was recorded in 3 days, after he had a nasty breakup... Keep in mind this is mostly conjecture and isn't without doubts though...

[raystinsky]

I went to medical school with Trent Reznor.

[micha1978stl]

Best song to do the dirty to ..EVER.

[WickedTRX]

that would be "Closer"

[breaddheadd]

the band at church did this tune this past weekend

[xpyrogodx]

fucking old ass song...

[MzSlowkid]

may be old but one of his best!!!!!!

[SsarverSumed24]

Great Song, amazing lyrics. ;D One of my faves.

[hoskins8403]

mmm old nin.....good stuff

[Durntdewd]

I like the Honest Bob and the Factory-To-Dealer Incentives version better.

xP

[kyboyz72]

awesome ive been off my head to this a fair few times oh the memories..hahaha

[jKeIfLfLkYiOrUk]

dam big trucks. ... i wish i was your boss

[bigtrucksr4girlz]

This song reminds me of my boss, I want to bow down before the one I serve, and let him give me what I deserve, damn he's so F'ing hot, and he don't even know how bad I'd like him to have ALL the control!

[ev8d8]

I thought chicks like you only existed in pornos and Penthouse Forum.

[Quadio1]

lets

[LordCrazyMike]

Aside from that, I love this song, and Really don't care much for the video. It was well done with the resources he had at the time, but the lack of resources is apparant.

I love his haircut though.

[LordCrazyMike]

As for Religion...To me, Its madness and lunacy. BUT I know good people of many different faiths, from being Satanic to being hebrew, and they manage to coexist. Even sexualities. makes me wonder about the modern world sometimes...are we really that hateful?

[LordCrazyMike]

God what a bunch of angry people commenting on politics, not even the video!

As an American Citizen I have some things to say before I go on about the video:

Canada has a lower crime rate and it is easier to purchase vehicles up there, without having to deal with the arcane DMV here in Cali.

America Is shitty, but it ain't as bad as a lot of other countries. I ate living here, but I am damn glad I don't live in say...Rawanda.

"Government is a body of people who are notably ungoverned".

[ericbofcarsonc]

buy a car on ebay or go to nevada dumbass...

[LordCrazyMike]

And deal with the absurd heat? No way.  And even when you buy a car from ebay, you have to register it, then go through a few other things (I think Nevada still has an Emissions law...might be wrong, not sure). Not a fan of Nevada anyways. Less law and complications in Canada.

[Contraceptive]

Spelled Rwanda.

And I mean that in the least bitchy, arrogant way possible.

[LordCrazyMike]

No Prob. Thanks. One of these days my High School education will manifest itself...

[LordCrazyMike]

@Contraceptive lol thanks. hookid on fonix werkt fur me....

[ericbofcarsonc]

what are you talking about!!! You started this tirade. as for my being a waste of sperm you up to what..... 6 shots????

Keep gulping bitch, a little chin dribble is inevitable. Ohhh and dont forget the money shot, but dont worry there's only one of those, but two for the show.......

[ericbofcarsonc]

this song makes me want to kill muslims for america

[SixShotMaryDown]

this song makes me want to kill you, just for the fuck of it

[ericbofcarsonc]

now is that any way to talk Ms. Six Inches?

[SixShotMaryDown]

oh its fine when you diss a whole race but its not fine when i diss you? scum haha

[ericbofcarsonc]

you are the dumbest bitch on the planet aren't you MISS SIX INCHES!!!!!

[SixShotMaryDown]

lol yeah sure thing, and you're just the biggest fucking coward that talks about people over the internet, you waste of sperm

[ericbofcarsonc]

you dumb bitch i dissed a whole religion, not race, u stupid cunt

[street00preacher]

kill yourself.

[ericbofcarsonc]

wow recommendations of suicide from a man of the cloth... I think Ill just wipe my ass with that cloth and call it good. when you pay hommage to your god kneel and put the 9" idol in your mouth punk, and be sure to gorge on all the divine goodness that squirts into your mouth... Amen

[street00preacher]

i am not religous. and hahaha i see what you have done with the oral sex thing hahaha very clever indeed your insults make everyone feel so small and restore your self-esteem no doubt.
