  • still watch it all the time, it's just right for this song and I never thought I'd find one for this song...it's really perfect for me. Who's the (A) that signs the video? is it you or are you just reuploading the video?

  • still watch it all the time, it's just right for this song and I never thought I'd find one for this song...it's really perfect for me

  • simply awesome

  • excellent in its simplicity

  • Pretty cool shit, man! At first I was just like, "Oh, it's too blurry", but no - it just got better and better!

    Sounds like kind of a stupid question, but where's the Permission Department for Trent Reznor?

    I mean, damn, then it's like, why would Trent take the time for lil' ol' me, but . . . yeah . . . thanks in advance if in the future I get an answer . . . I talk too much AHHHH

  • This is the album version ...

  • exactly. my AP biology teacher from years ago said she was good friends with him in high school and that he was always an amazingly talented artist as well as actor. random, but she said he was truly an amazing person

  • I've loved NIN since 1993...and nothing has changed....Trent Reznor is awesome...the lyrics always ring of the truth...

  • you can see a face at 2:30

  • the song is right

  • Great song. Great video, I liked the concept. I was wondering the whole song WTF you were filming! Nice job.

  • This song is so profound. It has great meaning, but that meaning is left for each person to determine, because none of us have lived the same life, so the meaning is not the same for us all.

  • This song is so beautiful ..

  • such a good song i wuv you for putting it up

  • This is the version I have on my CD. It's the best one... I can't explain why, but this song just strikes me. It's amazing <3!

  • I tottally agree, the way he sings it, and the beat is almost apocalyptic, definately the better version. Beautiful song.

  • hate how its live but love the background to this one compared with the solely acoustic version

  • truthfully this is the only version i like took me forever to find it too

  • I love the cheering at the end =)

  • The album version is the bombest. Thanks for posting. Didn't think it would be so hard to find.

  • I agree chrischanin, the first version is so much better!

  • so can anyone tell me what album this version is on so i can go get it ASAP.....

    great job this vid is wonderful...

  • With Teeth, it's the original version. A lot harder to find on YouTube; it seems everyone has uploaded V2.

  • I know, it's irritating. The original is better IMO.

  • Love the song even thou there was awesome vid before that was removed...

  • this version IS SOOOO MUCH BETTER ty so much

    Brilliant song.

  • this is V1 - V2 is the piano one :D atleast thats what i thought it was ¬.¬ correct me if i'm wrong - kindly ^_^

    Thanks from

    Kirby :D:D:D:D

  • I like this version more than the original. Its a trip.

  • so... da in den ersten 2 kommis ein paar fehler waren, fang ich nochmal von vorne an.

    aalso:

    an alle die so sachen wie "besser als das original" schreiben, ein großes "äääähm".

    Weil, ob ihr's glaubt oder nicht, das hier das ORIGINAL ist. Das, was viele als "Das Original" kennen, ist "nur" V2, also Version 2. Ich persönlich finde V1 um längen besser, auch wenn V2 um einiges ruhiger ist.

  • some people dont realize what this song is really about

    basically

    just think about the matrix

    that strange feeling that you feel like nothing exists except in your mind

    all the people you know

    all the places you've been

    its talking about the feeling that everything you know is a lie

  • The song is essentially about "Solipsism" the belief that the only thing somebody can be sure of is that he or she exists, and that true knowledge of anything else is impossible

  • Besser als das Original!!!

  • FINALLY somebody uploaded this version! Ive been looking all over youtube for this particular song. :] Thnks for the upload.

    people this isnt a remix...this is V.1 of right where it belongs.

  • I like the song, dont care much for the vid :(

    Its all faded and hurts my eyes LOL

  • i like turtles

  • ummm, ok? LOL

    Thanks for sharing this.......

  • Um, the people who are implying it was called a remix are ignorant. Reread the title, it states "Video Remix" not "Remix". Meaning that the video is the difference not the song itself. And it even says so in the uploaders comment box.

    In any case 'tis an awesome song. Maddeningly haunting.

  • Finally!! I could only find the not-so-cool 'V2'... This version is the best!!

  • this is not a remix Im so sick of trying to find this damn version ITS THE REAL ONE IT WAS THE ONE ON THE CD GOD DAMN call it the real version not remix. All the other ones are just someone playing the F#KING piano at their home

  • MARINE80015.. I've been doing the same thing. Looking for the original. Has everybody gone mad?

    Glad I found it though, I was starting to think I dreamt it ;)

  • THANK YOU

  • This is most definitely NOT a remix, unless by remix you mean you slapped a different vid on the song. Still, it's NIN at their best, IMO. Love this song... it's highly existential and solipsistic.

  • There were two versions of this song. This is version 1, damn near impossible to find on youtube. For whatever reason version 2 is more popular. I like this one more.

  • As do I. For years, I had existential/solipsistic thoughts, but was never really able to put my finger on said thoughts. This song helped me put those thoughts into words, and subsequently expand my horizons a bit.

  • Gotta love this!

  • its perfectly my favorite track

  • omg when i hear this i ask myself if when we die we will never wake up and thers no heaven or hell, wtf is the universe? what are we? =/

    very good song, love it =)

  • Man..fooled me big time. I swore this was the real deal!! Nice!!!

  • Woah!

    I was sure THIS one was the real version...

    Whatever, it's the best

  • this song rocks, and this for notwsproductions, you have to stop and think, yes their maybe no heaven or hell but look at the universe as a whole, nobody knows everything about it, non the less anything about it, there is so much to be discovered. There may or may not be another end to life but death but thats the journey we all take to find out for ourselves thats what i believe.

    "Death is not an end, but only a beginning".

  • Dude i like that saying, cuz What I believe is after death we will become gods ourselves, so Death really is only the beginning.

  • I would conclude that death is similar to what your world was like before you were born, only I cant seem to remember being 3 years old, so that remains inconclusive. Seeing as how I cannot remember my own beginning, my end is still a mystery to me.

  • day 5 i listen to this song every time

    notwproductions comment is the real word

  • when i listen to this song i ever musst think about the relationschips to my friends....are they real?? or is it a fake

  • they are real in your world.whatever your world is..

  • Why is this version so fuckin' hard to find!?

  • Dude, I thought THIS was the 'real' version. . .I didn't know about the other

  • Yeah, me to :P on the paint video

  • This version is much better anyways :)

  • Ha i thought the same, just when the backing buzz and vocals suddenly become clearer compliments the lyrics

  • Love it!

  • hoooooly fuck i absolutely love this song. :D

  • Call me what you wish, this song is about people being scared of the truth, we are all goin to die one day and rot, their is no heaven or hell, just death. The second message is to just live your life and dont worry about death until that time comes, because it would be a pitty to waste your life thinking about it. Trent Reznor should be awarded someday in the future for making us see what religion, and our societies tell us not to.

  • thanks man thats the best advice ever for me. just remember u have just made sum1s lyf worth living. thanks

  • fkn ace tune mate!!!

  • Thanks for uploading this version of the song. Did you have to cut the beginning of end of the song off though?

  • i think its more love lost

    and i think trying to figure it out exactly is stupid

    and i think trent is cool but not a god

    and i think palin blows my nuts

  • sweet the best version

  • finally the fucking good version...

  • 3:04

    Hey look its shakespeare!!

  • honestly this song means different things to different people i'm not saying i'm right but thats just what it makes me think of.

  • Dieser Remix ist sehr gut !

  • This song reminds me of capitalist American society and how it robs 3rd world countries for their resources and distracts so many people from true happiness.

  • It reminds me of Solipsismoh wait Solipsism is exactly what the song is about.

    its not a song "capitalsit American society" Purchasing recourses at going commodity prices from third world countries How can it distract people from true happiness considering that happiness is purely subjective.

  • Some people get caught up in the latest gadgets and designer clothes to fill some empty void. Maybe "going commodity rates" wouldn't matter much if people respected other countries and theirs by not shipping jobs over seas in the first place for a better price at walmart. The truth is there would be no reason to fuck over some poor Chinese children or Mexican family, or Taiwanese children, or where ever the best profit would be. We should live within our means and not be so greedy.

  • did you write this song? Do you go shopping at KMART with Trent? Most likely NOT. So then, how do you know what this song is EXACTLY about? You completely missed the whole point of the song: Reality is just a shared illusion" Quit pissing on others reality just because your suffering from lack of oxygen from being on your high horse.

  • Um wrong, the entire point of the song is not that reality is a shared illusion, is a song based on the philosophy of solipsism, which is basically The belief that all reality is just one's own imagining of reality, and that one's self is the only thing that exists. Solipsism remember that word kiddo solipsism

  • Ya, you can call me kiddo if that makes you feel better..(children have an admirable sort of innocence that know-it-adults lack anyway) Like I said, once again- unless you wrote the damn song-(well even if you did for that matter) you've got no basis for telling anyone they are wrong on how they perceive the song. So quit being an assklown and pissing on others parade you old nasty hag of a scrooge.

  • the visuals are beautiful, man. it reminds me of, i don't know, being trapped in a scarlet womb of your own head, and then it turns out to be a flower. i love it.

  • I like more rock alternitave but this still is my faverite song....

  • My cat got hit by car today :,(

  • aw, that really sucks. :( cats rule.

  • :'(

    love cats too!

  • This is a song you can listen to over and over and find something new every time. One of my favorites.

  • my life is an elaborate dream mutha effa.

  • ^_^ This is my favorite song by them. I can always listen to it when I feel like being thoughtful.. XD

  • I don't even know what to say about this song. It's amazing.

  • This song is talking about everything, about how people put animals in cage's whe God has placed us in one.

    That this is all our thoughts, all unreal, but it feels just the same regardless...

    though when he's talking about looking through the glass, it always came to mind about the death sentence, because the room is built like a triangle with two windows, on the other side are the 'viewers' watching a man react as a man to whatever his problem is being fed chemicals to "humanly" end his life.

  • there is a real a really good point to this song if u look up lyrics for it then study what the world really is this song is all about the world being in ur head and it is true

  • i wonder why you got 5 thumbs down.

  • I can't help but think of Neon Genesis Evangelion when I listen to this song

  • slahvrfan07, This does seem to remind one of Neon Genesis Evangelion

  • beautiful song by far!

  • Solipsism is what the song is about, I think.

  • I cannot agree - for me the song is about the fear of life - fear of seeing it as it really is. That is what I have experienced almost marrying the wrong women. Thanks to many people and this song I did not make the mistake.

  • what is solipsism

  • Google is your friend.

  • google is the devil.

  • ??????????????

  • Thinking you're the only conscious being that exits. Learnt it in my philosophy class.

  • funny story about reverse solipsism. a college philosophy student went away on vacation. when he came back, his hallmates had sealed up the doorway with plaster or something (and had apparently done a really good job). the student thought he was the one who didn't exist, and everything else around him was real.

    lol.

  • That was simply amazing.

  • Reminds me of The Fragile's cover art and lyric book photos.

  • great, innovative way of making a music video. Brilliant. well done!

  • great song , indeed, but i must say, if you did that picture, its amazing, and, i draw alot, and i consider myself realy good, but that is just amazing

  • i read something that trent wrote about this song and it was so beautiful, the meanig of the sons is so moving

  • Hey ok i always wonder what the meaning of the song i always though it was that we are animals a preator looking for pray or something LOL

  • You sound like a very intelligent person, jamer9999

  • love this song..... can not mean in otherway

  • Pretty awesomne, Five-Star worthy.

  • is that a drawing or pic of yours?

    either way gewd yob.

  • Thank you man. Great stuff

  • He probably used a clip for it, but none the less; really good! This is my favorite song, I want it played at my funeral, except the UK version, it's more mellow.

  • One seconds that motion. Trent's piano pieces work better mellow. Check the Piano version he did of "Non-Entity", it's floating around the ether somewhere...

  • Beautiful, at the point where it shows a leaf and the lyrics goes "your reflection" (1:24), it somehow made me picture the moment in the animated movie "The land before time" where Little Foot sees his own reflection on the watered leaf. The orange layers remind me of the desolate landscapes of that mentioned film.

    All in all, the movie along with the soundtrack create an eerie echoe of sadness, and I love it. Good job on this! ^^

  • How did you make this, it looks really cool...

  • How did you make this, it looks really cool...

  • simply....beautiful...

  • glad you enjoyed it :)
