Nine Inch Nails - Closer

[anagha360xorox]

Fucking weird ass video, but good song.

[totalchaozz]

totaly..

[AthenaHueber]

This kind of reminds of the "Push" video by Garbage a bit. lol. NIN for the win though! :D

[bubblezcookielove]

this song is so sexy and creepy at the same time. I love it

[TheGsxrDemon]

sick song but.... what -the...fuck

[1strwbryblondnc]

Some people say that an orgasm is almost like a religious experience, bringing them "closer to God'. The mellotron at the end used to belong to John Lennon.

[tonypiff]

steampunk!

[vincent1405]

wish I could have some one to make love to this beat

[Seamzi]

looooool! xD

[DisintegratedBanana]

Haha, it's so... ooohhh..

[vincent1405]

yeah :))

[obes92]

[vincent1405]

[OrLoveMe]

Omg this song is so creepy I pranked called this dude and he said "Hello" I played the part where it says I wanna fuck you lol it was funny

[coolieo970]

cool and CREEPY!

[bloggerday]

oh my

[zmanroks]

Wow. After that, I'm shaking. What the hell did nin just do to my brain?

[tackgirl]

MAN this is one shmexxxy guy! I agree with PiratePenguin on the thoughts of taking advantage of that!!! Ive been listening to NIN for almost 18 years and I have to say Ive loved them every day! Even have the tats to prove it! :o)

[ck5550005551]

o my god

gross

[PiratePenguin]

Whoops, I meant 2:20 XD

[PiratePenguin]

Trent Reznor tied up, blindfolded with those arm-length gloves is the single sexiest goddamn thing to ever cross my vision. Ever.

I'd fuck him like an animal. Repeatedly.

Him at 2:18 and 2:21 = Instant Orgasm in A Can! Just add Trent Reznor! XD

[vinniescornerspot]

Sex on a stick....I believe he is referred to by my friends....

[ColorsBright]

Does anyone know where I can find the version with the words "i want to HURT you like an animal"? I am looking for it on CD. Thanks

[yahnah10]

poor monkeyy... :(

sexy beastss :)

[GG5789]

Finally a decent version :)

[IveGottaPenny]

Awesome Video.

[stephenp1968]

Good song,, but The Perfect Drug pisses on this from a great height.

[finulanu]

It's a great song, don't get me wrong. But after seeing that video, my brain feels violated. Mindfucks don't come much stronger than that one.

[nrmacklin]

He's so HOT tied up and blindfolded...

Ha! It's Professor Snape!

[fakinpwned]

LMAO!!!!!!! it is!!!!!!!!

[Tamgeirne]

LOL, o hai there Prof. Snape XD

[Missipidy]

Trent is a fucking genius, but who ever composed the imagery for this clip are fucking gods

[AdigaArsen]

he did man :)

[FractalBolt]

I love this video. Definitely there's a lot of influence from Joel Witkin's photography and the Quay Brothers

[sumi990]

I love this video. I like trying to see what the video is about, and why they choose some of the things they did... It is interesting to me.. Like.. The lizards... WTF? lol

But in a very odd way this video is sexy.... It's good...

[Q3o5]

love this perfect <3 niN

[ericastardust]

Excellent quality.

[rointo]

This song is the ultimate commentary on dance music. It's like the evil twin of a disco/techno/pop song: stripped to it's bare elements and ugly truths: the music sounds like a disco beat buried for a week and dug back up, half rotted and with a zombie-like shambling rhythm. The imagery contains the sexual extremes we receive in media like dance music; and of course, for those who care to know, the businessmen who cultivate these extremes for their long-term benefit and immediate profit.

[Mistress3Bees]

@rointo very well executed and quite true This song is like the adult jaded messed up needs therapy version of pop dance music NIN=genius

[hothotz30]

this video is sexy??? i like trent rez and nin, but how many hits of acid did they take to make this fucking twisted bizarre piece of artsey fartsey bullshit?

[1strwbryblondnc]

Dumb fuck, Mark Romanek did the video, using his own imagery. He was trying to vizualize Trent's lyrics. Some people way that an orgasm is like a religious experience, bringing them "closer to God", hence the line. No the monkey wasn't hurt, just trying to show dichotomy of religion, sex, violence, etc. The mellotron he plays at the end used to belong to John Lennon.

[hothotz30]

kill yourself you fucking loser...

[1strwbryblondnc]

You first!  Abortion poster child...

[nelzn1]

One of my Fav videos of all time, raw, just raw!!

[dsb75]

drug references also. very obscure ones

[Pinguinelchkuh]

sehr geil...ich liebe nine inch nails

[jasper1984ify]

lots of references in this video--political, racial, etc.

one of the best vids ever made

[ChunkeyMonkey28]

poor monnkey, but badass song.

[crapObear2323]

What do the men in suits represent? Politicians?

[Dezfuck]

A lot of this video is sexy!

[Tfoxssss]

Nine Inch Nails actually spent a long time in New Orleans, so that's probably the reason behind this video.

[xabbiskittyx]

i did this quiz on facebook & it said this is what ,my stripper song would bee ..

[reemoh]

LoooooooL

picture in 3:34!!!!

[Hyarya]

Epic song, epic video, epic monkey and epic shoes

[armouredamazon]

Timeless.

[nebutch]

Ohhhhh gooooodddd!...

Thanks for the fix. Needed some pure, unadulterated, UNCENSORED, nin juice..

[soadluvr8]

i think its sexy when he's tied up by his wrists & blind-folded

;D

[BLANKETxR]

[BigSeth13]

I like N.I.N and everything but this video is a lil screwed up.

[Gopanda101]

Oh dear, you can't even spell 'bonor.'

[opti95]

[Gopanda101]

It's spelled Boner

Trying to offend me?

Haha, failure.

[opti95]

[OrangeMango30]

The best music video. (the second greatest is Bullet with butterfly wings by the Smashing pumpkins)

[thisistactical]

Hi. thanks for looking at my upload. But please stop the pointless arguing here. Life is too short to waste your energy fighting with a username on a computer.

[1strwbryblondnc]

Keep posting stupid shit, thanking me for non-exsistent compliment. My son is your age and so much more mature, WTF is your problem? You're still having wet spots on your underwear, wearing training bras.

[lovelivelifewthrocky]

[moustafalafalus]

[1strwbryblondnc]

You couldn't handle ones the size of the eggs she's twirling, much less a REAL rack! Little boy, STFU! and stickj a dick in brattygurl's mouth, she's only about 12. Guessing you're on YouTube now that middle school is out for the summer?

[shishkebab09]

Wow, dude, calm the hell down. Don't you know the meaning of sarcasm?

[JiraiyaTsunade2873]

LOve this song but WTF is up with the vid lol when he licks the mic.

[ellinachka]

if you look at the beginning of the video the mic resembles a nipple, hence the reason for the lick... haha

[ArgentTwilight]

This video is just amazing...  :P

[zombifiedmilk]

i love the part when he licks the mic lol

[Jakedigioia]

Damn pornographic video. GOD BLESS NINE INCH NAILS!

[pornomime33]

it reminds me of dir en grey...only less blood, puking, and veins...

O.o

[1strwbryblondnc]

My mom? 12? Yeah, uh huh...*rolls eyes* dumbfuck

[bluesnowcone7]

you need to calm down

and i'm the dumb fuck when you're sitting at your computer roleplaying

the *rolls eyes* was pretty much unnessary :)

[1strwbryblondnc]

Actually I'm at work on the computer, listening to YouTube. However, when I DO scroll down to the comments and I DO see dumbfucks like you posting...you're the role-player, dude. Get therapy.

[bluesnowcone7]

how am i roleplaying?

i think you're the one who needs therapy.

[Gopanda101]

To be honest. I think you both are dumbfucks ^--^

[caspa16]

that monkey looks nervous

[XTheDesertSongX]

its because he didnt know how to react.

i mean he was with the coolest person in the world, trent reznor

[ilyA7x]

this video is too twisted.. i don't think the dead animals are necessary /:

[1strwbryblondnc]

So bye now...

[mmecharlotte]

The video makes me LOL! XD

[turdbuger214]

I love this song and Video, Its pure Epic.

[richardferran]

this is beyond fucked up good song video gives me nightmares

[kerina2keri]

love the song but the video is weird

[hotasiangirlxo]

The music itself is very catchy as well as the lyrics. The song always gets me in the mood... until I saw this music video. Nonetheless, NIN is still fucking awesome.

[fragae09]

::god i cant believe this song would get me in the mood...but now seeing the video grosses me out lol......::

[erney24]

i hate the lyrics but the rythim is so good

[Duff831]

is this legal? lol

[TheDeviantCircus]

this video make me think to joel peter witkin

[Stolensmurf]

I love this video. it is so insanely awesome.

[ladyjanus]

SEXXY ALERT!!

[xXIAmTeamEdwardXx]

his voice is sexy xD

[Tmancubs33]

looks like a room from saw

[Zarabeth]

Thanks for having uploaded the uncut version again. Guess there's no hope to see "Happiness In Slavery" video on youtube another time, right? This sucks! Trent's pretty pissed off @ the youtube thing.

[thisistactical]

HIS version from Broken DVD coming very "SOON" ;)

[NazTb0y]

so, is this the unedited version?

[thisistactical]

yeah.

[thedixon5]

hurry home baby. this song gets me soooo HOT!! im gonna do bad things to u

[crazedchick753]

thatz fuked wat they did to the monkey!

[hellshandfull]

is trent reznor an ati christ?im not sure.

[HideAndGoGeek]

we are all the Antichrist in the end.

[1strwbryblondnc]

Actually some people sy an orgasm is a religious experience llike bringing them closer to God. Mark Romanek took his creativity and thought-provoking images and challenged the mainstream about sex, religion, racism, etc. No the monkey wasn't hurt, Trent's a member of PETA.

[Zeronum2]

Hahaha, funny that you mention Trent and PETA. I just saw a vid of him(PETA public announcement) where sharks got their teeth cut off.

[ladyjanus]

THIS SONG IS SOOOOO SEXXXYYYY!!

[minimal1975]

is it just the monkey bits that are cut out of the vid? n why it got banned at one point in the uk? coz, there isnt really anything shockingly bad on it, apart from the monkey parts which could be deemed as cruelty to animals, but i still cant see what all the fuss was about at the time, n why utube keeps on deleting this vid over n over again?????

[shishkebab09]

The naked woman is cut out of the edited version, and the monkey isn't a question of animal cruelty, it's mostly blasphemy as it's tied to a cross, mocking Jesus' crucifixion.

[1strwbryblondnc]

Video was directed by Mark Romanek using Trent's provacative lyrics. The mellotron he plays at the end used to belong to John Lennon. H'e's a PETA member, no the monkey wasn't hurt. This shows the correlation between a sexual orgasm and people saying it brings them "closer to God", almost a religious experience.

[transam0709]

Okay I cant tell you how many times I have listened to this today! just b.a.

[1ertia]

i can't get enough of this!

[denialo16]

poor monkey, but the song es genial

[poeticone4ever]

They are definitely into satanism???wow,love this vid!!Fuck yeah!!!

Jennifer

SC

[shishkebab09]

I don't see any Satanism...

[NagiasaChan89]

aw poor monkey. this is one of my favs of them, love it, deranged an insanity that's so me lol

[emjajay7176]

Love it - always and still. This is my favourite song of all time and Discipline is my favourite song of the moment.

[TheHeretic187]

3:43

the mask opens its eyes, creepiest/best part of a music video ive seen

[audreystyle17]

Still effective, 15 years later.

[Monkeysandbuses]

This is actually my favourite music video.

Not cause i'm screwed up, just because its hard hitting and just fucking awesome

[keichan52]

amen to that

[shishkebab09]

I concur, but it doesn't say much as I generally dislike music videos because 99% of the time they don't add anything to the music. This video starts right off with the beating heart, an image that will play in my mind every time I hear that beat. That's adding to a song's quality.

[xnadinex321]

omg. that scared the fuck out of me. haha

[DWreck39]

I wouldn't say that NIN has sold out at all or stopped pushing the envelope. Year Zero is definitely not a sell out album, either is The Slip. You could argue that with With Teeth, but I never thought any of his albums sacrificed a bit of message for acessibility or the like.

[belladonna315]

Gets my panties wet. Every time.

[pezfx]

it's a bit francis bacon esq. :S

[Episode1984]

Love the beat but HELP ME I find the clip quite repulsive

[thisistactical]

Back in the early 90's NIN was a genre pushing, dark, alternative scary monster....whereas nowadays we have an accessible and desensitized music industry aggressor...that's all. Sad but true.

Maybe that explains ur reaction. NIN was never supposed to be pretty.

[shishkebab09]

And in that lies much beauty of NIN's success.

[reaperdeth56]

i fuckin love this song, the lyrics are amazing, the beat fits the song, its perfection at its best,

[dani716j]

very freakin disturbing

[MoonGlorious950]

good song, fucked up video

[jfhgksjdhfk]

[Cheesebabe78]
