  • Have you seen the "UNCENSORED" music video of Nine Inch Nails-Survivalism?

  • i would be happy if my under age child found music like this on their own.

  • canasta

  • this may not be my favourite NIN song, but its my favourite music video.

  • I don't care if this is censored, it's still a five-star video; the censoring actually makes what Trent is singing about more true.

  • my fav NIN tune

  • I like the song in general, its lyrical nature, but what to do with the lyrics stating "mother nature is a whore..."

  • here' something that the kids can read. FUCK YOU. So what if Children learn a bad word? WHO CARES. They're gonna learn it some day as long as they don't run around saying it. Plus we as adults will tell them that's not allowed and what not. Look if you think censoring things is fighting for the Children then you have obviously have problems.

  • I guess concidering Label intervention this is the best they could do with this video. If I were in control of getting this vid on mainstream TV, I would just have the 'dept of morality' logo onscreen for the whole thing as a static image. Would really get the message across.

  • why the make censored the guys in the bed they are playing twister i know because i read the meathead perspective meathead says the things just like trent thinks LOL!

  • really?!? All you can say is OMG the world is hating on gays because there is a 'clean' version of this vid on youtbue? I LOVE how you neglect to mention the rest of the nudity in the vid thats censored for us STRAIGHTS as well....if you want gays to get a fair shot in society your first step is to CORRECTLY recognize when gays are being hated on, not intentionally spreading misinformation and hatred, under any guise.

  • Holy SHIT, they took down the one with the gays? They have videos with straight people being much more suggestive. Evidently YouTube moderators are homo-phobes, too.

  • Everytime I meet censorship what strucks me is that I don't really get the point: what are u americans afraid of?? censorship is such a stupid thing, u hear the song and hear a sudden silence, what's that? o my gos ther's a couple of person making love!! let's censore this, nobody does such things... it's so silly. Soon or later those poor idiots will banish ancient greek and roman scolptures as well: the statues are all nacked!

  • ...first of all learn to spell...second of all what does youtube censorship have to do with america? o.O not that i don't agree with you though...

  • Censorship needs to be abolished. It is one of the many ideological issue keeping society from progressing.

  • Because there are CHILDREN who watch these on YouTube, that's why. I know you don't care about children beyond the end of your nose, but some of us do, and will continue to fight against those ilk that despise them.

  • Well, the uncensored version is still available. Anyway, it's the parent's responsibility, not youtube's the government's, or the computer's, to monitor what their child watches and to instill values in them.

  • there is censoring as in the sense of keeping someone from writing a paper on the government because there is too much truth, then there is censoring a nut sac, this is the case of a nut sac, not even necessarily because there gay but because not everyone wants to see

  • I honestly have no clue what you are talking about.

  • lmao funny thing is, the song is from the album year zero that talks about censoring and how the government will control everything 1 day. i can feel the irony. plus your right its what everyone dose so yea more power to you bro.

  • and whats even funnier, is that this video has actually been censored. lol, fuckin censors

  • thats what i was talking about xD!! but it is rather funny

  • That scarf Trent Reznor is wearing is supossed to be the "Scarf to prevent Year Zero". That's what I heard.

  • what is the bad feedback for??? this is good NIN period

  • Thank you for your intelligent input. :D

  • inutil

  • eh?

  • Censoring a music video that is about censorism just reinforces the arguement in Trent Reznors favor.

  • lol

  • And strange...the other video has better quality than this one...Alright, I'll admit it, this version music video (that was posted by these guys) just sucks balls lol.

  • Censoring for my protection? It's just a half naked woman (on the uncensored clip), It's nothing that serious. I mean, Happy Tree Friends is on YouTube without any of that censoring bs and that show is as gory as hell! And none of the episodes have been flagged either. And it's not hard to find the uncensored version of this music video..

  • I HAD the UNCENSORED version up (that Trent himself was using on the official NIN YT page). But SOMEONE decided they didn't like that...

  • foooda !!!

  • 1984

  • A censored version of this song is a bit ironic. Haha.

  • Fuck the censorship pigs

  • FUCK CENSORSHIP!!!

  • mother nature is a whore.

    trent got his kanye west scarf lol

  • naa my friend wore a scarf like that befor kanye west sooo no

  • Kanye west probably doesn't know your friend

  • lol

  • heear ye court of rock an roll you have no jurisdiction here! please go back to your country ... country music that is..

  • the awesome part is that the censorship sort of goes wiith the year zero alt reality storyline

  • yeah it does...best censored version of anything I've ever seen,haha

  • WAKE UP AND GIVE A SHIT!!! lol

  • are you an nin fan? or a chris cornell fan lol chris needs to stop singing with timberland it sounds bad?

  • lol chris cornell.. his fucking new shit stinks!

  • Comment removed

  • hear ye Court of Rock'n'Roll! thy ruling shall be laughed at and ignored!

  • hahahahahahahahahahahahaha ouuuuu thats a doosey!!

  • haha! "For Your Protection" b/c of corse when I saw the real version when that part came I screamed "AAAAH! My virgin eyes!" jk

  • I got my fist

    I got my plan

    I got survivalism !

  • People say "Oh, I can't believe this is censored, what crap." But really, I like this version better. To me, the "CENSORED FOR YOUR PROTECTION" thing helps their message.

  • I do like the original, but I can definitely see what you're saying.

    This doesn't make as much sense, since security cameras aren't likely to be censored. It's kind of like a message inside a message, since they had to censor the video for television.

  • Heh. Censored version. Can you say irony?

  • Year Zero happens in 2022, not 2015. It happens 15 years after 2007, not in the year 2015.

  • It's kind of ironic that a clip about censorship and intolerance is censored. However, this version some may consider less revolting, even tough i guess it was meant to be provocative.

  • the same thing happened with Korn's "Y'all Want A Single." They were against the music industry changing their lyrics to be suitablea and against censorship. Yet, they still cencored it.

  • On my channel I have put the uncensored version. Still cool :)

  • It will only turn out like Mr.Trents vision if the people let it OR thay could let the gov steamroll over them i think if your gonna start a mallitia you better be prepared to die for your beliefs.i mean if you think about it the constitution says thet the people canstart a mallitia if the gov becomes corrupt and bad for the people.

  • when did this song come out?

  • April 2nd 2007.

  • I like this version much better.

  • I don't know about you guys, but I'm fairly pissed that a censored video of this exists. Yeah, they did solve it in a way that makes sense, but still. It's sort of stupid for a song that's all about going against the government and the like has been censored.

  • i think its kinda fits in, the only bad thing about is we dont get to see boobies ^__^

  • i like this song and its message, but you are all paranoid. year zero will never happen, i doubt uncle billy bob down in texas is gonna let the government take his m-16 and place a camera in his house. besides, whatever happend to the government fearing the people. mass protest is where its at guys.

  • censorship makes me really sick...

    but in this case it has been at least solved in cool way.

  • Eh, if you havn't, you can watch the uncensored version on their site for it...but a warning, one of them was gay sex.

  • w-o-w

    wow

  • MTV is all crap. If you pick and choose which programs you like you are playing into their hands.

    "All you read and Wear or see and Hear on tv Is a product Begging for your Fatass dirty Dollar." - HOOKER WITH A PENIS, TOOL

    Although, musically YZ isn't that great of an accomplishment, I accept it as another great NIN album. Hardcore NIN fans are pissed because they can't accept change. They are still stuck in their hole while Trent has moved on and sung about important issues of our time.

  • Im happy that he has sung about the importment issuse of our time. Change is key. Im a huge NIN fan! I am accepting his change, its not like hes not singing rock no more and then changing to hip hop! That there would make me kinda pissed. but hey. i still have the past music he made.

  • Alright. Im a hard core NIN Fan, And i am also accepting his change. He is an amazing artist. and i have been listing to him since i was four. I tottaly accept this change.

  • When I listen to this song and the part that SkatingDemon was talking about I want to jump. I love the song but like SkatingDemon said I like that part. It makes want to get up

  • "our mother nature is a whore"

    one of the best lyrics ever

  • Wasn't there something just like it in In Bloom by Nirvana? >_>

  • yes ut was"mother nature is a whore"

    so take out "our"

  • Big Brother is watching! Thats my interpretation of this video!

  • Reminds me of 1984 by George Orwell and Brave New World by Aldous Huxley

  • Year zero is a pinnacle of the collapse of the good in three things:

    Religion

    Community

    Commerce

    Religion, not administration by self appointed "holy men".

    Community, not a government of power crazed pigs with puppet strings.

    Commerce, not big businesses who turn out a profit regardless of the cost to anyone and everyone else.

    Keep it from happening. Act, think Live.

    ART IS RESISTANCE

  • Not to sound like an idiot, I never really figured out what happens at the end, but I really get the message from theare songs.

  • you retard... downward spiral days... sometimes, music has a MESSAGE, and I think THAT is why Reznor made this album.... been crap... you're retarded. People like YOU are the reason why we're losing our freedoms.

  • y r u trying to pick fights with people you don't know over the internet? they have just enough right to an opinion as you

  • Mtv is crap, all reality shows and the odd decent show, Rob and big, Cribs..Etc.

  • lol thts funny how the government even censors security tapes, lol, the world will suck in 2024 or whenever the hell year zero takes place

  • joey... it takes place now. wake the hell up.

  • year zero takes place in the future, genious

  • Year zero chronologically takes place in 2015, iirc

    but i think kapal meant that we don't need to wait till then to have year zero happen. If it happens earlier, or later, or even if it's starting NOW, doesn't matter.

    Trent's album takes place then. the REAL Year Zero - No one knows, we can only predict.

    And hope it won't be as harsh as the one portrayed by Trent

  • 2022

  • 0000

  • So true

  • great song!

  • whole

  • I really don't know why people have to censor such a pice of art!!!They destroy it!!!!!!

  • Actually I think the Censorship adds a certain demention of believability to it. While the uncensored version is also good, this one too, adds a layer of them controlling everything

  • Shimlarian, that is true.

  • wow, kid ur dumb. u must b one of those people who will believe anything...

  • Something I recently found out made me remember comments I'd read on here a while back. I don't know about the rest of you, but it has officially been proven that there is indeed drugs in the water...At least here in Atlanta. The three drugs announced are Acetaminophen, Nicotine, and Caffeine. They want to get you energetic, addicted and to feel good.

  • dude..Shut the fuck up

  • Does it bother you that there's actually drugs in the water (though they claim it's not enough to affect anyone)?

    I thought it was hilarious considering that Parapin is a 'fictional' substance created for the storyline for Year Zero. I guess one would need a sense of humor to get it.

    There really are pharmaceuticals in the drinking water of major cities. And it was Cotinine, not Nicotine, which is just a byproduct of Nicotine. My mistake.

    All the same, I love NIN and this song is great.

  • Well water FTW.

  • you`re maybe right and there`s a hole lot more..

  • all mtv ever plays anymore is mostly rap....ugh

  • That's so true!!! They completly forget what good music is-NIN!!!!

  • MTV sucks

  • i know now all they have is rock the duce which doesnt have many good bands. like t-minus rock use to have!!

  • i'm assuming people here are not biased and mtv just plays too much of one music :S

  • I LOVE NINE INCH NAILS!!

    they just keep getting better and better

    GET YEAR ZERO!!!!!!!!!!!

  • thats cool how they censored some of the monitors rather than the whole screen

  • watch the uncensored version and youll understand a lot more.

  • you can now cut an album slap it up on sites like youtube, myspace and others.

    musicians can't make any real money selling albums anymore. they have to get by playing live shows, selling merchandise

    and the massive fame of being a rock star.

    and for a man working for the working for the system he sure does give a lot of his work away. no?

    plus as the bill of rights is currently being used as toilet paper, I don't need anyone selling me a good god damn thing but ammunition.

  • "I don't need anyone selling me a good god damn thing but ammunition."

    Stop being such a drama queen... shesh

  • what system? the guy owns his own label.

    "The only music we hear is the music that the record companies and MTV think will sell." who watches mtv anymore. personally I never did. and as for the totality of record companies. their days are numbered and few.

    All of those restriction are gone now thanks to advancements in internet related technology. the power is now solely placed i the hands of the musicians and the fans.

  • Don't get me wrong: great song and message, but...Bottom line is that Reznor's making money working for the system, and we ARE the system. The only music we hear is the music that the record companies and MTV think will sell. RICH CEO'S ARE SELLING US OUR REBELLION, AND WE EAT IT UP, THINKING WE'RE BEING ORIGINAL!!! Everything we are is marketed to us and then sold to us. Period.

  • DAMN RIGHT!!!

  • They only give us what we want

  • raping our churches and burning our women is from WKUK

  • YEA I'M A BIG FAN TOO!

    Sic Semper Tyranis!

  • Hypnotic sounds of sirens

    echoing through the street.

    The cocking of the rifles,

    the marching of the feet.

    You see your world on fire,

    don't try to act surprised.

    We did just what you told us.

    Lost our faith along the way and found ourselves believing your lies.

  • whats around trents neck? like a bandana?

  • its a shemagh

  • I got my propaganda!

    I got revisionism!

    I got my violence!

    In hi-def ultra-realism!

    All a part of this great nation!

    I got my fist!

    I got my plan!

    I got survivalism!

    awesomeness

  • but then they dont censore the dead body bein dragged

  • so universal finds tits and two guys in bed to be an inappropriate content? this is very funny.

    especially that it's hidden behind "cencored for your protection" yz logo

  • Good song.

  • gawd i love this

    i didn't know they censored it

    i didn't have cable at the time this vid came out so i saw on internet had no censors looovee it!!

  • US censorship sucks,OK to kill people, but not OK to show a lady without a top or 2 gays in bed.

  • haha-- when I read 'censored' I just figured they simply cut out the 'inappropriate' material for basic cable tv viewing, but I gotta say the censoring is well played in the sense that it fits in beautifully with the theme of the album. (not that I'm condoning censorship in any way, shape or form)

  • This one has the best sound quality.

  • they're getting better and better :)

  • They censure the two Gay guys making love?

  • This is honestly one of the coolest videos I've seen. I love this band so much. I love how their videos NEED censored versions in the first place.

  • this band is great

  • It amuses me that they don't censor the word 'Whore'. lol. like: 'its okay to say 'whore' son, just don't looked at people's butts.'

  • I don't see what the big deal is. If you want to see gay sex you're looking in the wrong place anyway, there's plenty of that on the internet. Add to the fact that you can watch the uncensored version if this one disgusts you so much.

    I've never seen people get so pissed about not being able to see gay sex. There is plenty on the internet. Go to town son!

  • wow where do you get the idea that hes so pissed? youre fucking dumb

  • Interesting. First time I've seen the censored version. Has a bit less...emotional power than the uncensored version, but it definitely adds an interesting concept with the censoring screen. It's nice if you can view both...That's why YouTube is kinda awesome.

    :D

  • ok waffenkrieg666 you basically just copied what i said but you spoke in a dumbass manner and added douchebag to it. you make germans look bad you fag. and nothing against you chunkeylimey but you made fun of middle america but also called him a dumbass but you promoted abortion and when you dis middle america and believe in abortion you have kinda made an oxymoron paragraph.

  • I'm goin on a crime spree, I got my suvivalism right here

  • im gonna have sex to this song

  • nice!

  • didnt need to know that but do wat u want ;-(

  • Its a shame Trent disbanded his entire band.His new idea of touring better be good.

  • Nine Inch Nails was never a band... Trent alone writes and mixes instruments with session musicians on tour. There has NEVER been a NIN group although Danny Lohner was a vital ingredient on two albums... So there is no change to touring or anything else! This is how its always been! :)

  • \/ that was to chunkylimey btw.

  • waffenkrieg666 : You're just perfect evidence of why America needs a LOT more abortions.

    Especially with your pseudo german/nazi/satanic name. Only some emotionally immature twat from middle America would think that was a cool name.

    Go back to sucking your dads cock you inbred bag of shit. Just because someone shit in your gene pool doesn't mean you have the right to inflict your pathetic existence on us.

    Let the cool smart kids enjoy the music your obviously too fucking dumb to understand.

  • chunky, you remind me of those fat german kids on the simpsons drooling chocolate.  Fatty.

  • I think I prefer the censored version.

  • F*CK YEAH!

  • You're an angry, angry lady. Some people don't want their kids seein nudity and what nots its not just religious.

  • ok douche, they obviously weren't just seeking out the gays in this video, a topless woman was censored too. The point is so they can air it on tv and get more premotion. As for the rest of the stuff you said...just please never have children, go get yourself sterilized. thanks.

  • What the fuck are you doing looking at Nine Inch Nails videos and then getting upset when someone points out that Christians are evil scum?

    It's in the fucking music? If you don't like the music don't watch it or listen to it.

    Reznor hates Christianity, if you're a Christian you can't be a Nine Inch Nails fan. Go fuck yourself.

  • well chunky, your not exactly proving your worth either by insulting the guy, sure hes probally imbred like MANY americans, but im american and im not imbred....or at least i hope. But although i disagree that ALL christians are evil scum i do think that most have their heads a little too far up their asses.

  • Chunky, you're the reason why people frown upon Atheism. You fucking retard.

  • "Chunky, you're the reason why people frown upon Atheism. You fucking retard."

    I'm saying nothing different from what Trent Reznor sings, so if you're a fan enjoying his music and not listening to the lyrics then the retard is you you God-swallowing moron.

    You can keep you imaginary friend until you grow up, shithead.

  • echt lächerlich so ein video zu zensieren!

    in was für einer scheinheiligen welt leben wir eigentlich?

    ganz abgesehen davon;NIN rocks =)

  • sure people are way to sensitive but they didnt censor it so people dont freak out...

    they censored it so that they can get the video aired on network television. if it was to graphic like past videos then they would have less viwers and less record sales. with the newer songs like this and hand that feeds its been cleaner and more fans have built up. and who doesnt love blood?

  • tru dat!! lol

  • i guess the LOL SIGN DIDNT REACH YOU HUH, ACCTUALLY I AM FINE WITH GAY PEOPLE LOL

  • And there's a thumbs up for that! Hah!, you're redeemed.
