The Becoming-NIN

[SenorSmurf]

Look up beast in the dictionary & Reznor's face is next to it.

My favorite NIN song. It has the weird static sounds Trent plays with, the dark poetry lyrics, the off-beats he likes, and goes off to awesome chaos in the end. And his first line, "I beat my machine: it's a part of me, it's inside of me" made me suspicious of the sanity of the song to begin with...Like I said: my favorite.

[snowlauncher79]

it won't give up it want's me dead god damn this noise inside me

[T3HU]

this song blows

[Codwino]

@T3HU Go eat a dick you piece of shit.

[DWazntHere]

[madashell1200]

I've been playing the new Deus Ex game and this would be the perfect song for it.

[drakkname]

What happened to Reznor in this era?

[StickyInADarkBlueCut]

@drakkname cocaine happend

[thparticus]

@drakkname and steroids.

[birddogbull]

didn't Reznor also use Traci Lords in a song? or was that just RHCP in "Stone Cold Bush"?

[Pazmore]

This was added 3 years ago and only has 15,054 view? Atleast half those are mine.... shame on ppl for not knowing good music.

[fuckingsweetrex]

[bluckagungo]

@fuckingsweetrex hahaha... totally fits, especially the screaming part. haha.

[fuckingsweetrex]

[MrRalf012]

[rafamelvins]

[awholenewworld3]

So, is that a porn star scream in the background or..?

[Siberian16]

@awholenewworld3 No, it's from sci-fiction movie :P watch?v=vjRPiBGVFIE

[KedViper]

@awholenewworld3 No that's at the beginning of Big Man With A Gun

[SkippyChurch]

I love a lot of Trent's music. Almost all of it. But this... THIS is my favorite song he's ever done, and that's saying something.

[lok666]

copy cat from Hong Kong youtube.com/watch?v=gAfa8DxX8E­k

[kornisthebest100]

'The me that you know he had some second feelings"

I absolutely love that line. <3

[666briareos]

@kornisthebest100 its "second thoughts" or" used to have feelings" cant love it that much lol

[ironman9978]

"Or it gets the hose again".

[GravemindLFX]

it rubs the lotion on its skin ...

[badnadgoodmom]

Your deep part can be my cheezy part and vice-versa.

[avail2010]

I would like to cover this. Damn but Im poor and have no recording equipment. Oh yeah and I cant sing. It was a good idea though.

[Tengocuentadeyoutub]

Besides Wish the most deep Nin song

[urkhai666]

@Tengocuentadeyoutub i don't find wish that deep of a sing more just a straight forward catchy song to me

[123Shine]

@Tengocuentadeyoutub

Remove the first two words and I agree with you completely =)

[Boowey116]

@Tengocuentadeyoutub lol... if thats oyur idea of a deep song listen to him a little more, try hurt for example... the great below (thats a way underrated song) hell, even try the perfect drug

[Tengocuentadeyoutub]

@Boowey116 The original emo Kid. I like Nin , But some songs are horrible , Like Eraser , Terrible lie ,etc., But some are very deep : The becoming,Wish

No really, Wish is deep and cheesy at the same time, you want proof?:

Deep part: Climb up real high now fall down real far. Deep : Put my faith in god and my trust in you Cheesy- now there is nothing more fucked up I could do.Im the one without a soul Im the one with this big fucking hole. EMO part :I hate everyone!.

[dylf14]

@Tengocuentadeyoutub wasn't cheesy when it was released.

[Tengocuentadeyoutub]

@Boowey116

Oh and for me This is the most deep song from The downward spiral.

[Rackuzius]

LOL. Trent Samples the movie Robot Jox.

[mrsaint111]

iz trent really on heroin????????.........noooooo !!!!!!!....i ben there.and dat shit iz tough to be on.....alot of suffering....i love this song btw....especially all the background sounds of people suffering........... -(s)A1nt-

[Elzy123456]

This song im pretty sure refers to his heroin addiction the machine is his addiction and at the end the noise inside hi head is the heroin or addiction...." i try to get away but i strap my self in" (shooting up)

[Shoe3003]

Someone should do a Columbine music video for this song

[morgoth2000]

Interesting points of views... The way that I saw this was he's done with a relationship, and it's over for good. He's a completely different person from the one he let her abuse... I could be wrong.

[CybershamanX]

thank you. very thank you, this night....

just what an old cybershaman needed even though he could walk across the room and grab yon disk... :D

[fartmagnet]

Any "Second Thoughts" ?

[foshizzlethiznizzle]

Your name is funny because it utilizes the word fart which is funny because it comes out of people's butts and the terms "fart" and "magnet" are generally not used in the same context. How humorous, fartmagnet. What does it do, attract farts? tehe.

[bawdybadboy]

It ends prematurely.

[whoracle3]

best NiN song.

[thephattyarbuckle]

i agree, and i relate because im shizophrenic and hear voices, both good and bad, well mostly BAD

[warlockboyburns]

strange thing, schizophrenia.... my friend had it and he got cured by vics vapour rub. you know that stuff you rub on your chest? he'd rub it on his chest and throat

[blackfireINSANITY]

......what the fuck?

[robmac411]

Vicks vapor rub makes the voices go away

[GravemindLFX]

@robmac411 please explain ??

[StupidXContageous]

...I'm pretty sure schizophrenia doesn't work that way. :P

[JackETProductions]

worked for me

[suzannemm73]

I think it also relates to Bipolar Disorder. And, no, Vicks Vapo-Rub does not cure mental illness. I hope you were thinking that you were just making a harmless joke. But, I can tell you, there's nothing funny about mental illness. Trust me.

[lizzykiss441]

@suzannemm73 yeah i know i have 1.

[Lollitia]

Schizophrenia /cured/ by vic vapor rub? Sorry but that's not possible. It's possible that he had a psychotic episode and that it 'shocked' him back in to reality but even that's unlikely.

[prozavversusheroin]

besides...eraser best nin song.

[n9ptown]

what about reptile, heresy, the wretched

[gareth45]

ruiner is the best!!!

[kcmet79]

there is nothin like the back to back to back triple whammy of closer, ruiner, and the becoming on TDS. love em all.

[pinktrash88]

RUINER AND THE BECOMING ARE THE 2 BEST SONGS EVER... and theyre back to back.. NIN is amazing!!

[happynegg]

thanks

[beatingu666]

AWSOME!

[slyaina]

@beatingu666 You spelt that wrong! :) It's 'Awesome'.
