@perdedoronline I'm pretty sure it's actually a young boy. Apparently if you look up the meaning the director gave for the video it's supposed to be about a father mourning the death of his son. How that actually relates to the lyrics I'm not sure with the whole "My fears want to get inside of you" and "You make me hard when I'm all soft inside." Just sounds creepily sexual for the concept of this video. Anyways... don't know his name but I've been wondering that myself. Can't find it anywhere.
@HempKnyght420 It's a NIN song which often have to do with relationships and drugs, which the lyrics could have to do with, not the concept, but it is probably about the characters addiction to absynthe.
PLEASE take out the little bit in the beginning about the clipping noise. Pretty please? It's OK. We forgive you. It just detracts from getting into the mood for this vid... K? hehehehe... ;)
@condobleN It's hard to do, no doubt. It's pretty much the equivalent of filming the video that's playing on an old TV hooked up to a VCR in HD. It still looks like shit.
If he ever releases a Blu Ray of his videos, I'll upload it then. He probably still has the original video in a canister somewhere, so he can run it through all them fancy machines to convert it properly to 1080i.
@condobleN All good, man! Yeah, I'm thinking of doing more HTDA remixes in the future. I still have a buttload of NIN multi-tracks to play with as well. Time will tell, thanks for watching!
You do realize you have to access the drop down menu and manually set it to a higher quality right? ... don't criticize someone's video if you are an imbecile, and do not even know how to perform a simple task.
i guess you haven't tried watching the video in 1080p. you would realize that even when selecting 1080p in the player, the video is still played at a low resolution. still, i already apologized in the comments a couple months ago for pointing it out in a dickish way.
but you didn't know those 2 things, so i understand why you would think of me as an imbecile.
@DemonSemon117 I guess youre replying to the guy that said 1080p my ass. i downloaded this vid in 720p and it looks about the same as 360 or 480 if the source is old then the transcoding to HD isn't going to look as good as something that was filmed recently with newer cameras. it's like movies on EncoreHD. they don't look like real 1080i like newer movies do. I agreee 1080p my ass.
Thank you for make this edition and up loaded the video, It was a very good job, congratulations. This song healing me somehow, tahnk you again. Regards from Mexico.
@Lluminari The sound is CRYSTAL, great job my friend. The Perfect Drug is, quite possibly IMHO, one of the best videos ever made. The misanthropy and darkness just oozes from everything.
@Lluminari stopped in for my daily dose-read this comment and choked on my coffee, you crack me up.Love your attitude,you are quite a character-love it.Now to clean up my giggle splatters,thanks for that!!
@Lluminari You deal with it so well-so many will argue and carry on. You just end it,no drama just * SLAM* and the doors closed.Very classy indeed.Great theory , I totally agree.Need more like you to stuff socks in their gaping maws.Still makes me laugh but I swallowed the coffee first this time !Rock on O talented one!
Holy, fucking, shit man - nice job! I liked this one even better than the first edit you posted (which was really good too) - the ending is what really got me. VERY well done sir ...you even changed the actual song up a little for the outro, which I think Romanek should have done it your way! lol - keep up the good work man, I am always watching.
@LeviathanoftheDanube Thanks L! Yeah I hope you guys have patience. With work being what it is I find myself wanting to sit down and edit a video less and less these days. I'm sure once I get inspired I'll post something new.
Can't complain about Romanek's edit myself. The execs say cut it down for airtime....they pretty much have to. Which sucks.
I've been in great need to be able to see this and hear this great video!Does anyone know who the child in this is?She looks so familiar. Thank You Lluminari !!
I got up early and checked-IT"S HERE!!!! Absolutely incredible! Even more so than your original-the audio clarity fantastic, wow.Worth waiting for.Congratulations!!! Lluminari, YOU are the perfect drug! The only side effect is this huge smile on my face. Going to watch again right now. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.You ROCK! I repeat....wow.
