Nine Inch Nails - Somewhat Damaged - Version

[larahill82]

Looks like another planking junkie hit rock bottom... Kids nowadays.

[coldstaind91]

Way back off the side & far away is a place where I hide where I stay..tried to say, tried to ask, I needed to..all alone by myself, where were u? How could I..ever think its funny how everything u swore wont change..is diff now? Just like u would always say..we'll make it thrgh! THEN MY HEAD! FELL APART! & WHERE WERE U? HOW COULD I EVER THINK ITS FUNNY HOW EVERYTHING U SWORE WOULD NEVER CHANGE IS DIFF NOW? LIKE U SAID! U & ME! WE'LL MAKE IT TRGH!..DIDNT QUITE FALL PART! WHERE THE FUCK WERE U?!

[kevisace666]

good vid!well done

[jcliveron]

what is the mental condition? faggetery??

[jcliveron]

I'm a great guy but somtimes people want me to be somewhat damaged fuck that people they won't and Will never damage me again I recover I'll damage you fuckers. I know your ways I can vanish you till hell.

[devilpedopulus]

its nice put thoughether... i think the man is that magnician? brown or smething...

i do like the symbolism but i guess it will/can not be approciated by everybody because some people won't understand it, unless youre formiliar with the lyrics...

I think NIN is great to put those kind of feelings in music, maybe its all pessimistic but its the recognition that makes it beautiful... (respect)

[bolmsp]

great work mann just ignore the douchebags !!!

[t000th]

I think you should re-name this to "Terrible Lie". Seems much more fitting.

God awful.

[TheBandPinion]

I was at least expecting a chair to be smashed or thrown but eh, it was still good!

[Pauschke]

@TheBandPinion

the chair smash scene was cancelled due to the budget problems ;) thx for your comment

[sandrakate]

garbage acting and cheesy self indulgent oh look at me I shot this video crap. The only thiing that's good about this is NIN's fantastic track.

[mudsmack1980]

love it

[SsarverSumed24]

Wow, I really like this.

[PINGOtheDISMEMBERED]

for a first work it's good, FUCK OFF CRITIC GENIUS!!

[KronnangDunn]

EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE...

[applejackx800]

the video totally ruined this song.

[TrojanGold1314]

@applejackx800 that's impossible, a video of teletubbies throwing glitter in the air for 4 minutes and 19 seconds couldn't ruin this song, just do what I do, don't watch the video, just listen

[bolmsp]

nin 4 life !!!

[jimmyallowances]

Nice job bro

[pinonoir302]

Very good! who is that dancer?

the mix of NiN music and Choreographer is perfect!

Good work!

[robertamitchell1212]

Not bad, I ended up watching the whole thing. I liked the setting you had for the video...

[StickyInADarkBlueCut]

good fuck the world facial expressions but bad posing bro

[CrazyKate1984]

Great video, well done! I love NIN and this video really represents their music *thumbs up*

[davecote123456]

amazing:)

[jay112273]

the song is great....the only thing about the video is ...he reminds me of ed norton from the fight club.i love that movie ..but i didnt need to be reminded of it during a nine inch nails video..

[calicokittyful]

Wow! I can't believe anyone would say the "acting" is bad... Although this isn't my type of "thing"...I thought it was EXCELLENT! The actor really made you believe he was PISSED at the world...(facial gestures were amazing for not reciting the words to the song!) He made ME feel like he indeed is a bit "off" .... I REALLY like this song except for the f-bomb dropped so many times, but yeah...it must be done. That's NIN! Great talent!

[angie4josh]

I never knew Mr bean had access to so many chairs.

[UROXZMYSOXZ]

This beat makes me turned on.

[wampus2319]

seriously how could you possibly have anything bad to say about this video?

it shows a level of creativity and thoughtful interpretation that most people could never achieve. well done Pauschke!

[TheAgtr12]

loved it,bad ass song,and vid

[scrollofdeath666]

hahaha that looks like some retard would been locked in room with chairs! but still this song is good song

[kain38]

this is a excellent vid! i think ya hit the shit dead on. saved as a fav

[ZeldAnTales]

Is this pointless symbolism or did you have thought behind these chair scenarios?

[Pauschke]

@ZeldAnTales

Hi - The chairs and the whole setup should symbolize a left home - a now lifeless place where "everything you swore would never change" is different now... thx for your comment! Greets

[ATrancepotting]

nice

[Zer0status]

I dare anyone to do better and post it, otherwise shut the fuck up..........with all do respect.

[wysteria640]

you fail



[86nappygirl]

I like it

[TheFrutichica]

well, i think this video shows the actual "mood" of the song...i think it`s great :)

[AnimalThe123]

lol. this is so awful. i want to jump through my computer monitor and end you.

[boot2dakool]

pretty good vid dude, savage song!!!

[DDapOrpp]

Very interesting, you've got some really interesting edits going on. I would've lost the lyrics on the side though and let the visuals and audio speak for themselves.

[MzMeanE]

"excuisite"...exquisite...

[Discgolf97]

@CynikettE Please get a life. You think the video would have been so much better without "2" and "U"? Grow the fuck up and make something yourself. Also, try just enjoying the badass song, for what it is.

[GeoffreyVarga]

This is hillarious lol

[75reznor]

I guess everybody has their own vision of what the video of this should be like but

I can't say theres anything wrong with this video .

Great video to an even greater song .

[davism4a1]

wtf?

[touchandgod]

Hard song to act, but nice try.

[marclepine]

meh.

[Trinity7054]

This is really cool video.I like it very much. Well done guys:))))

[letsgoforajoyride]

one too many 'mate'?

[parrashow]

Great attempt! Fuck the haters. Something about this works for me.

[eyworld]

just one thing to criticise: it would be a lot of better if the movements of his lips would fit to the song lyrics of Trent.

[brielga]

this was great man...thanx for sharing

[yaoi1yummy]

creepy 1:20

[TheWorld63]

Nice video, it was very disturbing and dark just like the music. If this was your first effort at making a music video then I am very impressed and think you should keep making more. Also I think the actor did very well impersonating a "somewhat damaged" individual. Thanks for posting it on youtube.

[usindiamo]

meh.. it was a good attempt to translate song into action, but it has room for improvement.. Good try though : )

[MrSnoopsJJJ]

one

[zzzippo55]

so your in germany ? nin is german, singt deutsche? can you sing this in german , will you??

[neonauj]

ive been picked on all my life and trust me this guy has no idea wut anger is. ive been through multiple relationships (if u can even call them that), two branches of the military, countless jobs, schools, family problems (who doesnt), jail, you name it ive practically done it. surprisingly tho ive became a nicer guy amongst all of it. you can either let anger get the best of you and let bitterness take root in ya or try find some other outlet. music is one of my outlets. but when i get angry...

[DethChick]

lol. I giggled when he was licking the floor at 1:19. His face!

[tumicmac]

This is stupid. Every other shot is just the guy seething in his chair.

[neonauj]

u want some anger? be in my shoes for 5 secs and ill show you some true unadulterated hate and pure anger...

[ultrak0w]

@neonauj why is that

[MegaGorgoroth666]

awsome song!!!!!!!!!!!! this is one of my favorite songs by nine inch nails =)

[terriblyill]

i fucking love this song.

[didi0014]

Good job

[potheadcruz]

this vid wuz pretty awesome

true anger

[MissPurestFeeling]

a really nice work ;)

i like it

[KevinCanada87]

Despite all the stupid ass motherfucking ignorant comments on here, I loved it. It was creative and shows that you reall appreciate NIN music. So from me to you, thank you!

[sasha8709]

i think the looks on the actors face are amazing

[CynikettE]

Would have been a lot better if you could spell and didn't use "2" and "u"...

...also, actor sucked.

[Pauschke]

thanks for your comment

in the year 1999/2000 when i shot this layout video - "2" and "u" as substitutes were really cool ;]

as cool as writing Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D by NIN now... at least here in Germany. For me - the actor is great, because he plays like a stage actor on stage... which he is in this setup.

By the way - thanks for all the comments and for watching!

greets

[LokiusMaximus]

@Pauschke

Yeah, they were cool if you were 12. I guess they still are if you're 12.

[eyworld]

@Pauschke : great fan made video! i like it so much! dont think that the actor sucks, like him really in this vid, he gives everything to be somewhat damaged ;-) by the way is the actor and you, are you germans? me im from germany as well...

[GlassInMyEyeGuy]

@Pauschke You, sir, are the better man.

[Talonxandy]

@CynikettE .....your mum sucked.....my dick

[dylanskriloff]

@CynikettE

this guy can't spell which is embarrassing ... but actor was funny ... imo

[TheFrodo198]

Is it just me or dose the actor look like the guy from fight club.

[Fuzkerendude]

a bit.. but not very much.. More in the clothing, than in the face ;)

[TheFrodo198]

@Fuzkerendude well at some angles he dose kind of look like him but just a little.

[Fuzkerendude]

yea :)

[jppicks]

so my bersion red pirate suck that dick that feeds you.

[stupidandironic]

like you said you and me make it

Through didn't quite fell apart

Where the fuck were you?

[gablemalaise]

that is my favorite song...in the world.

[Marchofdapigz]

actor was horrible

[Perniciousdeeds]

dude this song rules but you're a fag.

[Elisepalmtree]

Acting isn't to good...it ain't the worst though. I suggest crawling on the floor more. Think of a schizophrenic :P or just act like your the most craziest person and your in a loony bin.

3/5 :D keep it up.

[rich661]

Hey look.... chairs.

[TrojanGold1314]

love the song, the actor, NOOOT so much, especially the yelling at the end

[tristan9812]

Love it.

[badxradxandy]

To is not the same thing as too.

[lpf21]

hmm, seems in some parts you took the lyrics literally. maybe in some futue projects try find a way to convery the message instead of showing it, literally.

also, the actor (no offense) doesnt convey the feeling or the lyrics very well and the setting doesnt seem to fit too well. instead, i would recomend implementing scenes or flashbacks which would show his mental state instead of focusing on it through out the video.

but thats just my criticism and advice.

[agreeklove]

It seems the more i listen to this guy the more I just fall in love with thier energy. I remember feeling a certian way with another band, but i can't seem the reason why. ha! I love the end. 3:08

[digitalechoz]

Cool video,great song. Trent is a musical genius.

[spinkwotzer]

This guy's acting is a bit self-conscious

[RCD608]

needs to be darker.

guy is just an actor...hasnt gone through things that make the feelings the songs mention real and unable to ignore...

[knockoutpunch1]

high five!

[madcap1031]

My favorite song off The Fragile disc 1.. Great video man i think you captured the chaos in the lyrics very well...i wanted nin to make a video for this song back then so bad and they never did...So im happy to see it get one after all this time..

[rrmmt23]

Chaos!!! yes thats the word that ive been looking for the describe this masterpiece, you my friend are the man.

[MultiBellringer]

vid's cool man, but kinda think this track should stay in the head, as an oppose to being visually forced into one idea

[hurlyburly500]

ok the video isn't great, but no need for all the hatred, it shows potential and is quite well shot in parts, keep on making movies mate. Cheers.

[lamerbonita]

i like it. i think it's very creative, and extremely fitting with the lyrics of the song. to those who think trent wouldn't like, you obviously know nothing of him. not that i'm his best bud (ha, i wish!), but every interview i've seen and read of him, he says he loves when fans do things like this, and it's similar to the nin style, especially earlier nin. i think it's great. lovely, really. good job.

[lovemychaingun]

fuckin' A! - that rocks!

good job ;)

[Nahfanmot]

The reason why the comments are so harsh, is because it looks too good to be done by an amateur.

Jeez, it's a first work and it's pretty awesome. A voiceless monologue isn't an easy thing to film, and i reckon this is really good actually. Not PERFECT, but really good.

[YutakanXXVIII]

You did a very good job.

[clone0001]

'allways'

[jsvitak]

I like it, it needed more passion though. Almost more hurt and understanding.

I also really agree with JayBennett1973, it reminded me of Fight Club before I even started reading comments!! =D

5/5

[neverFearIisHere]

awesome song! lousy video...

[Northance]

The actor's good. He's just not right for this video.

Great song.

[HARDHOUSEKILLA]

jesus christ give the guy some fucking credit. fucking failures. i give this 5 stars now

[MelkorFXify]

yeah, I enjoyed it a lot

[die4valor]

absolute shit. TR's comin' to kick your ass for this!

[prete73]

god this is bad, its ruining the song for me. very poor acting.

[JayBennett1973]

i agree this is not a nin video..it reminds of ed norton in the movie fight club

[abuzaind]

it's like theatrical performans. really shitty actor's work. sorry

[AwakingState]

the video looked great! fix the spelling errors is my best suggestion.

[elementdude77]

TOO FUCKED UP TO CARE ANYMORE

[faaip0de0oaid]

FUCKING GREAT SONG!

first time i listen to all the song and now is one of favorite songs of NIN!

[climaticman01]

WHERE THE FUCK WERE YOU?

[0madmadame]

fail

[seargeantfirstclass]

TO FUCKED UP TO CARE ANYMORE!!!!

[duba3988]

this song rules

[midian43]

decent video, but had nothing to do with this song..

[La0k00n]

3:36 - 3:37 "allways" :)

but nice video !

great song anyways

[zeros1s]

kp2718 so's ya face....

just thought i'd actuaslly add something that really was irrelivent to this.

and just to add comment to this vid properly... the vids good work, love it :D

[loginvlad]

Nice one !!!

[kp2718]

THE VIDEO IS COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT.

[Deathwalker1982]

And that is so constructive. Well done you, have a cookie.

[kp2718]

You want constructive? I won't be - the video is offensive to me and should be to any nin fan. I want it removed.

It can appeal only to true losers.

Live videos of this song are worth much more.

[IronCrue3]

Some idiot wanted to make a video from his perspective of the song, oh well, fine by me. I cannot understand why you would want it removed simply because it sucks, though. I am sure you will get over yourself eventually.

I do agree with your conclusive statement, though.

[kp2718]

I might have overreacted. Let's say I wish it was removed :)

[Roseh77]

Your existence offends me, I want you removed.

[cydest23]

well done!!

[dufc2007]

They opened with this at T in the Park, such an epic gig!

[screamingslave99]

I think this was an awsome video. well done for a semi amature!! :)

[docmariscal]

could be better if you really try to make a non sense feeling like shit , video... try out i dunno spell casting seals trying to bring chtulu from the ocean graphics oof drawing with blood

[TheOddone28]

kool

[66NIN66]

GOOD JOB!!!!

[eyworld]

nicely done!

[xlEmmorielx]

NIN played this live 6|7|09 ......

and I almost beat the shit out of someone.

<3

[Fwingchun]

I don't like his face. NIN deserves better.

[rebukeasitis]

Acting out a described action in a song is a big no-no in video editing.

[jackmac178]

why?

[sirmok]

gentlemen ,

only one word: CONGRATS!

[bomberhands]

not the worst thing ive seen. I think you made it a bit to somber for the upbeat progessive melody.

[GothicRose1981]

this reminds me of fatboy slim-weapon of choice with christopher walken

[smack1289]

It's totally unneccessary to display the lyrics throughrought the whole song. So are these Fight Club-cloned scyzophrenic faces and gestures. The actor wouldn't be so bad, but this video is seriously fucked up, man. Please don't take this personally, trying is good!

[HieX0r]

Screw the fucking nobodies whining about not liking the video. Great song, thanks for uploading it and going trough the trouble of making the vid and putting the lyrics with em.

[Bennawakposse]

It's not corresponding with NIN, it's not a good video clip for that song and not for something serious.

[xXAkridXx]

NIN is so good, you can put it to a crappy video and it doesn't make the song any less ownage.

[JulianValentinHansen]

I prefer the song without this video cause! the song discriping someone who are reaaaaaly crazy and sick! and the actor looks reaaaly crazy and sick! But somethings wrong! he´ s looking more like someone who are making fun of it!

[Bareknucklebxer]

i agree with eloisehaunts. this is stupid.

[Meezplease]

Great song... I'm sure Reznor would give a deep sigh to the video.

[xXAkridXx]

This video woudl actually go great with some of Reznor's pre-NIN stuff.

[piscesariescusp121]

nine inch is the shit. hands down.

[eloisehaunts]

I really didn't like the video all that much... I watched the lyrics instead near the end of the video because they were more entertaining. It would be different [maybe] if you weren't attempting a NIN music video and you were doing something for a class or someething or your own project, but the actor was lame and I felt like the video was a big joke. I couldn't take it seriously. I love this song though, so I watched it to the end, it's so epic.

[OrTheFuturist]

The video is mild. But favourited for the song, I can't find any other studio versions on YouTube.

[xXAkridXx]

We're a captive audience to this crappy video, let's critique the hell out of it, lol.

[Vril4orce]

what a pointless video, doesn't fit with the music at all. Weak attempt. In no way does it match the intensity of NIN music.

[selfdestructstarfuck]

this song is exactly how i feel at this point in my life, it gives me chills the way the lyrics just. HIT. YOU. RIGHT. THERE. everytime.

[WOGNUMBER1GODFOREVER]

yea. NIN does that for me too. i never get tired of trents lyrics, its just that ifferant ones sound better to me at different parts in my life

[R0B0K0NG]

somewhat gay...

[WOGNUMBER1GODFOREVER]

fuck you faggot

[strider535]

this song makes me really happy for some reason... great vid 2 it reminds me of symbolism... fuck the haters...

[immortalsoul666]

this video is so gay , i feel like beating the shit outta the dude lol
