  • Listen this Song while open RainyMood . com

    Scary and beautiful at the same time! ♥

  • when someone told me Nine Inch Nails made this, i didn't believe them at first. This song hit me differently, its a special breed that makes you sit on a bench at 3am outside on a cold night and think "What the hell am i here for?"

  • I'm used to play this track right after "Hurt", and then play "12 Ghosts II", "13 Ghosts II" and "36 Ghosts IV". It's like a suite, open to various interpretations, and a great collection of atmospheres so different, yet so close together. It could well adapt as a soundtrack for anyone's life, for it delivers a plethora of feelings and depth of sound.

    KKS

  • @KKSlider60 The rest of Ghosts is just random bollocks that starts out good, lures you into a cacophony of useless noise and formless instrumentation with no other reason than to be pretentious, petty, and appeal to the hipster crowd mass market of stereotypical white college students.

    How the fuck could anyone enjoy it?

  • @SecuR0M Everything is subjective and left to others' opinions. What you find as hideous may well represent something deep to others, possibly according to their life experiences. There's no "music", no "noise", it's just sound and layers of different atmospheres. Your comment means nothing and all at the same time, so why bothering something you dislike? I suppose I should have expected it from a typical bored Minecraft griever on youtube that likes to destroy others' games... Cheers. /KKS

  • @emhean dear troll/rascist pig, that isnt funny or cool

  • yeah love this tune..thank god for trent!!!!

  • I can find words to say how i'm feeling when i'm listening this.Just will say amazing!

  • One of the most beautiful peices of music ive ever heard...

  • The only other person to move me without words and a piano is beethoven. trents a genius. Its amazing how he can take such simplistic notes and touch a feeling. This song would be scary if he put words to it. great song. Also love 28 and 34.

  • The sound of awakening, a beginning. The sounds of voice like winds echo with us as the beats from the earth reverberate through our minds with the deep force of a piano. Somewhere we hear a truth, different versions, echoing within these confines and we find a moment of peace, within these Ghosts.

  • THIS SONG MAKES ME THINK OF DEATH LOL

  • @ShotGunToYourHead What is so funny about people dying?

  • I truly cannot believe my ears dont stop cmming to this even years later. masterful.

  • if any1 likes instrumentals and dark ambients this is THE thing for christmas... check out ghosts 3, 7, 9 and 32 too, theyre pretty good too its only $5 on itunes and amazon

  • Some parts of this are in a scary ass zombie mod for HL2 called Smod: Outbreak

  • @solidfreak123 Love that Mod.

    That Song made me love this and the mod.

  • Haunting and gorgeous instrumental song. Makes me cry everytime. Thanx so much for uploading it. Thumbs up for NIN :)

  • its not the same if you dont listen to all the ghosts in a row from start to finish, that is a real emotional experience, but it is cool to pick out ur favorite bits

  • so deep

  • Trent is an artistic genius. As some of you have said, he doesn't need lyrics to express. A world class artist. Able to compose and direct the sounds to express a mood, an ambience through his own creative process. Though it is his perceptive fans who are able to enjoy this kind of unique art, which much is open to perceptive interpretation. No doubt, it is true to Trent's nature. His abilities are stunning. I love it.

  • It goes well with photo's of ' Urban Exploration ' or ' Urbex '

    beautifully gloomy music fits with those pics or slideshows

    of dilapidated wet, dark creepy olf factories and asylems..

    better days, peeling paint, sinister old rooms unseen by most...

    have fun !

  • kinda creepy

  • beautiful...

  • Wtf How can you not like this song?

  • I remember driving through Galveston one week after Ike hit.  I was listening to this track and driving through the devestation. I wish I had captured it on video as the song really fit the mood

  • Favorite song ever written

  • That sound that kicks in @ 0:49 is seriously haunting.

  • i love this soundtrack :D it's so creepy :o just awesome =3

  • This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard thus far in my life's time period.

  • Fucking beautiful xxxxxx

  • So relaxing.....

  • This song is amazing...

  • I love this song... The whole ghosts album is soooooooooo visual... like a story to every song I love it! This song makes me think of like a demolished city... kind of like I am legend... I don't know that's just me I guess

  • it makes me think of a cold and frosty but sunny fall day on the country side ... You feel the cold air filling your lungs every breath, but the sunshine warms your skin ... there are no leaves on the trees and they look like skeletons, and the soil is covered with withered, brown leaves and gras ... hehe, I don't know that's just me I guess =)

  • @SgtThomy everybody has different thoughts with trent reznors music, thats what make it so powerful, i envision a identity-less man, walking on an empty dirtroad, and the world around him seems dead and lifeless, i notice a strange similarity between my thought and yours......hes not dead, although everything else is

  • I'm learning to play this song on piano (I know it's not that hard, but I don't play, lol). Wonderful tune.

  • This is such a good song,i love it.

  • does this song remind anyone else of the legend of zelda? not old school zelda...im talking specifically about the legend of zelda: ocarina of time and the legend of zelda: majora's mask...two amazingly extraordinary games, this music so reminds me of them..maybe because it's similar to the in-game music..

  • Actually, it reminds me of the Silent Hill series. Specifically, it has that same atmosphere of isolation and desolation that makes the games so scary.

  • Yh it reminds me of silent hill too ^.^

  • for some reason it reminds me of Evangelion

  • This is absolutely beautiful music. I am attempting to figure out how to play this. The piano part shouldn't be TOO hard, but the rest of it could give me problems. Thank you Trent and everyone else who worked on this song. I love it

  • The chord progression is A, B flat, F, G.

    Just incase you wanted to know...

  • love it <3.

  • i prefer ghosts to the quake soundtrack..

    i never managed to "understand" it

  • B Minor? sounds like it...

  • I hate this Mp3 age we're in but I reckon I'll probably get the CD. I haven't really listened to NIN before but what I've heard of Ghosts so far is pretty awesome.

  • Anyone who's listening to Ghosts heard the Quake soundtrack also made by Trent? It's along similar lines, instrumental-atmospheric-minim­alist, but more industrial gloom-n-doom.

  • yes, I absolutely love the Quake soundtrack

  • I haven't had a PC since 2000- but I keep my Quake disc close as it's a mini NIN album to me. Yeah Mac! I miss shootin' guys with my nail gun though.... :)

  • wow trent finally found that listening to mozart's requiem you can make some sad music

  • This is my favorite off the new one <3

    It was the perfect start for the album. Its kinda like The Fragile cd in parts.

  • Nice music. Reminds me of Keith Jarret. A requiem mass for the unknown battler.

  • Sounds very similar to Rabbit in your headlight by Unkle.

  • This is such a wonderful song to open Ghosts with as it conveys that sense of loss in life that we all encounter and wish to be rid of, so we go to our dreams, our memories. Halfway through, it begins building into that tension, the impatience to begin the reality of our minds, and slowly fades away from hurt, into the dream. I think Trent's amazing if he can do that simply with sounds and not have to tell the story with lyrics. It shows his genius in understanding the mind and conveying it.

  • @kaoritsukino You sir, speak all but lies. every bit of what you typed there is 100% correct.

  • @kaoritsukino I guse it means we all have a form of synesthesia when it comes to sound. only that it evokes similar emotions rather than a confusion of the other senses

    

  • @kaoritsukino This comment is so pretentious and hipster. It literally hurts me. The first half of this song is my reading the comment, followed by my personal self-bereavement at having sunk so low on the musical ladder that I'm actually listening to NIN.

    Then I go back to Judas Priest and all is well.

  • this song is so sad... what an amazing way to start the album

  • oh i love it..it's so relaxing..

  • i just listened to the whole album...

    it is wonderful piece! very calming and absolutely trentish :)

    love it!

  • it is so great!!! i love it!!

  • OMG!!! I am 24 hours behind. but fuck i am so excited right now i could blow.

  • Oh man, this is interesting...I gotta check this out.

  • amazing....fucking amazing....Trent has once again proved himself worthy in a world of shitty music....(applauds)

  • so right!

  • @godimtired A very ignorant and elitist position to take. Music is completely subjective and your failure to understand such, shows how little you really understand about music.

  • FUCK YEAH!!

  • one note can changed everything

  • This is amazing i cant wait to buy it its gonna be amazing

    i fuckin love trent reznor

  • !!!!NIN!!!!

    New depresive seductive music.. AWESOME!!!!
