I met Trent right after the release of the Aug '85 film Real Genius starring Val Kilmer. He had not seen the movie yet and I quoted some of it that I thougth was funny. (After Val Kilmer’s character Chris makes a pass at Deborah Foreman’s character she replies) Can you hammer a six-inch spike through a board with your penis? He thought the logo NIN would look better than SIS and Nine Inch Nails was born that day
You guys got some real talent man. I was a teenager through the 90's, born in 78'. Reznor was an artist that changed my life. I think I was 14 when I got Pretty Hate Machine. Dont give up on this passion. Great, great video.

As a nineteen year old college student and a 90's child, I can say that I am outside my generation's choice in musical ambitions. Bands like this change your perception whether emotionally or mentally. I AM PROUD TO BE AN ALTERNATIVE ADOLESCENT!
@jimmyboyz123 Well said . Trent got me through High School. Im outside the box and will be until the day i move on. I graduated in '95 growing up in an Irish , catholic, republican house... rough childhood to say the least .
@Z28Ruiner outside the box = freedom. it might seem harder sometimes but being your own person is priceless. it just sucks that so many people got tricked into the beast system of control. fukk tv, radio, mainstream media whores, paid off congress, insane elites. real change is coming. trent knows damn well what is going one.
@jimmyboyz123 those were the days. it is especially fitting today. now i'm more into weird stuff like Shpongle, no lyrics just a crazy ride!
blind melon was a huge favorite of mine. i saw them when they first toured for $7. amazing. lollapalooza with pearl jam, nin, soundgarden, chili peppers.
wish i still had that shirt, it would be priceless. where does laundry go? i loose shirts all the time,lol. jim morrison shirt with him as an alien, gone.
I am glad I didnt grow up fucking miserable like this. I grew up in a small town and we had all kinds of shit to do. We had bonfires out in the middle of nowhere. We swam naked anytime we wanted and we drove at the age of 10. We didnt give a shit about adults and they didnt give a shit about us.
Nice job! It also helps that the main video character is similar to Trent in looks or knows how to appear that way on film. I hope you keep perusing your video art. You will do good things!
@NAIVADA Wow.. calm down.. they are highschool kids. I bet everyone of your days are exactly the same. Sitting here watching countless you tubes and bashing the ones you dont like. Way to make use of all the inspiring words you've heard from music. Keep living your "i have to be cool everywhere, and my opinions always matter" dream. You mindless twit of mediocrity.
@NAIVADA You know you sound like you think you know art. Do you realize that all art, excluding the shit people listen to these day, takes effort to make? Some people put time into this, infact this vid. isn't ANY DIFFERENT to the official NIN video whatsoever. You gonna tell Trent Reznor that he is turning "meaningful art into meaningless fart"? I don't know, perhaps you just thought of that spew and decided you would use your new punn on the word art while insulting art in its natural state.
Are you seriously in high school? This is really good. I mean, REALLY good. The guy, by the way, dresses exactly like I used to back in high school (mid-late 90's), kind of a flash back. To be honest, I had counted the new generation a lost cause, but if there are still people like you around, thumbs up for the future!

dude that is fuckin sick bro nice ojb on timing it too alot of the vids ive seen look like old godzilla films the words stop but the mouths keep moving
This ain't very original. Looks like a Brandon Lee (or the younger Trent) lookalike walking in his hometown remaking the "Down in it" video. With bits of old fashioned TV to recall the "Closure" video. And personnal footage with no actual point at all.
We were in high school. Watching this now, I still love it, and yeah there are definitely some cheesy parts! Our styles have grown for the better. Above all, we had a blast making this video.
this is by far one of the best videos on youtube. not only have you managed to blend the video with the song, u did so in a flattering way to NiN. congrats and i will give a 5 star!
awesome vid man, really cool editing and like the black and white-good affect for the mood setting. Just a note though- its a great song and so true- makes me feel motivated to get reach better things and inspires me to live ones dreams. I live in london and too many people live as robots serving all those around them and not themselves. As for a refernce to the film, I love the part when he tells his boss to go fuck herself,and done the right way with class-makes it simply poetic.
