[86nappygirl]

I'm losing sleep cause I needed my Trent fix.

[Gypsy4119]

Awesome share D, love it !! Gypsy

[00WolfSpirit]

My mom was the over protective parent. But she loved Trent and NIN And i actually remember listening to NIN as a kid. Well before 10yrs old, when she died and I obviously no longer listened to it.

This is the song I MOST remember and, scarily enough, the censored version of the music video to.

This is just a great music video... as freaky as it is. This song and video is REAL art. Not the shit like Lady Gaga is apparently doing today (I dunno, never seen or heard her and dont plan on it)

[Ball50f5teal]

@00WolfSpirit I'm not a fan of lady gaga's music or anything, but how can you say she's shit when you have "never seen or heard her"?

[ThePieIsLie]

Mark Romanek is a genius. =)

[DreamerM]

Heh, I guess Trent giving the camera the finger while he sits in the corner by himself is about as close as he got to "complaining."

What a pro.

[Oceanborne81]

Where is the monkey scene?! Where the monkey is crusifide! It got cencored in the end (ofcourse) but would have been cool to see how they did it! Meaning did it involve animal torture or not! It looks really cool in the original video though! Poor monkey:D

[joropi]

Fuckin MTV...

[4eyedCyclopes]

the guy commenting sounds like Kip from Napoleon Dynamite

[TheGallows32]

kip plus Maynard James Keenan

[reznorected]

hmm if anyone wants to get me the perfect birthday gift.. i'll take on trent hung by wires.. ty.

[bels10]

LMAO...me too! Mine's 10 October lol

[clockmenfail]

Mmmm...Trent in a box for Christmas...

[reznorected]

these vids are all available for purchase. i have them all, but this one i loaned out... and have never seen since. lol

[NatalyaNecro]

The director's voice is annoying.

[WhiteStripe333]

I wanted a jacket like he wears in that video for YEARS. I think its pretty kick ass..

[razmossis]

Trents so uncomfortable

[DCism]

I have the video on my 'pod. Kick ass.

I'm not gettin the deluxe edition of the downward spiral 'cause it is too much money.

[NINCHAILS]

yea, it's pretty expensive. i was gonna get it at fye, but it was 48 bucks! i was like, damn!

[lingojac]

mark romanek's great

[kanetool]

"Fuck MTV." Enough said.

[hammerslittlehorror]

i dont know where you are getting all these behind the scenes videos, but im liking it!

[inull]

What version of "Closer" is playing in the intro? Is it a remix? Sorry for the stupid question, hehe.

[StarsConspire]

"Closer (Deviation)" - 6:16

Remix by: Jack Dangers (of Meat Beat Manifesto fame)

[VanityInPerson]

OMG I didn't know this video. Thanx for posting.

[pigtelevision]

so much work into a 4min video...tough love.

[masterbobgood]

It sounds like George Lucas. Mary Poppins,fag. Intresting

[dugerstein]

HAHAHAHA!!!!!! George Lucas! Then I guess we can expect a re-mastered, digitally enhanced version of the "Closer" video, with tons of creatures and little space ships in the background.

"(Help me)/I've got no soul to sell/ (help me) you're my only hope"

[reaperette]

with the 'help me' being said in shriveled alien squeaky voice. XD that sounds awful!

[Lanedude08]

George Lucas needs to stay the fuck away from music videos. Star Wars is the only thing that's going for him and he already fucked that up.

[MermaidsPearl]

Fuck MTV and the Real World 234 from Mars HA!

[oliverclozesoff]

Terrific, two geniuses in unison for an amazing video. He hated MTV back then, but just look how awful it is today. Infact there is not a word to even describe how bad it is now. Forget ever seeing great bands like NIN on there ever again thats for sure. So yes indeed, FUCK MTV!!!

[reaperette]

MTV was awesome back in the days. Now it's just crap. I missed the days when you could watch music videos all day. But now it's all crappy reality tv shows. Ugh!!

I believe the word we're looking for is atrocious. But even so it doesn't compare to how it really is. Ah!! awful awful awful.

[Flaherty4371]

Well said!

[Lanedude08]

MTV is like SNL.

Way too fucking past it's prime.

[TilskKarishma]

@reaperette mtv = empty vee

[joekuta]

awesome

[laviergenoire]

exactly dudering...

[aenimalogy]

OK, Director dude, your voice is VERY hgih

[KingGulerod]

Right about 4.10 you can here this music. It sounds like a remix of Closer. Do you know what it is?

[Snake2k00]

Closer(Deviation). Remix on "Closer to God" single.

[dudering]

oh dear when will people learn that this song is not directly about sex, its more of a suggestion of someone who uses sex as an outlet to make themselves feel better because they hate themselve

[carilyncarilyn]

well, yes and no. Trent also said that this song (as well as much other nin songs) are sex-songs, songs to listen while you have sex. so yeah, it's right what you correctly said, but also is a song that makes you wanna have sex, simple and direct sexxxx

[dudering]

i just hate it when people see the words directly and don't really think about what they mean

[spicyMcHAGGIS9green]

Well, to understand this song, you need to look at TDS as a whole and not just single songs. It's a concept album.

[sexloveanddrugs]

i love this song it makes me wana fuck so bad i have the new studio demo on my page its crazy.

[Spifficus]

Trent Reznor and Mark Romanek! They are fucking perfect geniuses!

[RenGotti]

I knew he would compare it to Prince.

[PearlJammer07]

Where the hell are these coming from? Bootlegs or an actual DVD? Very intresting to see behind the scenes for NIN videos. Would be cool to see Behind the scenes of Closure vid.

[Shramir]

i think these are actually from a mark romanek dvd about his stuff... might be wrong =/

[leo3375]

It's from the leaked "Closure" DVD.

[Manami19]

lol" mir fällt grad so auf es wär bestimmt lustig wenn trent mal den spongebob schwammkopf song singen würden XD TRENT wenn du das hier liest und dazu auch noch verstehn würdest! sing mal den spongebob song danke XD

[lulipoper]

love trent ♥ ke hombre mas guapo lo amo por dios ke rikoooo delicioso ojala lo pudiera conocer para chuparle todo el pene y todo el ... aunk ahora es el doble de mi edad ja ja ja..

[almayatic]

yeah fuck MTV.........

seriously.

Fuck them up the bum.

[TheKillUncle]

I know, my lad! fucking MTV of shit!

[kinkivamp]

trent...a pinata....wakajaajajjaja!!!!

[alfonsoskid]

hahaha Trent Piñata :)

[Grazydine]

The fact that Trent Reznor said F it let's do one version screw them if they won't play it. Where most people would sell there left nut for MTV exposure and he was more concerned with heartfelt honesty. Much Respect ....

[Trentholic92]

Trent's a pinata! LOL! I wonder if there is any candy inside?

[bongobongo4]

*giggles*!

[NINifiedgirl]

hell yeah! lotsa candy!

[Trentholic92]

Thanx 4 posting another great video! This one was really interesting!!!

[blueberry1980]

This is one of those music videos that will always be a classic. Still holds it's own in the current day.

[Pogokoala]

ok now why did it took so long to release this?

[AlbinoGoose]

What is the remix in the beginning?

[DougJ]

I think it was number 2 on the closer single, that had like six remixes, all of which are dope. That was the very first of many nails cd's I bought.

[GSRobotCan]

Closer (Deviation)

[TacticalArtie]

So basically Joel-Peter Witkin, James VanDerZee, and the Brothers Quay... I love them all.

[TacticalArtie]

conscious.

[gurt1337]

Woah, that's a freakin' genius director.

[VansAngel]

More artists should be that way."If MTV's not gonna play it,then fuck MTV."That's freakin awesome!

[AggieMaryann]

O_O

Whoever uploaded this.

@$%_@$ THANKS!

[Chipstastegood]

lol i thought the song was gonna play then all of a sudden "my name is mark...

[7thcardinalsin]

I love Trent's viewpoint on how many videos they should make.

"Well, f*ck MTV" XD

[holycrapyousuck]

Gee, my concept for the video was to just rip off the work of Joel-Peter Witkin.

[NIN1995]

i think trent is bored lol

[spiralion]

Oh my god, I thought I'd never see this. I was thinking about Trent spinning around in the air and I've seen these guys on Ripley's that have hooks through their skin and they are suspended in air and they should have done that but then again they did want to get this on Mtv.

[JennWright]

I met Mark Romanek's co-worker this past weekend! ^_^

[purpletigress55]

hahaha weeeeeeeeXD he gets to spin..thats so kool! go trent...hahaha

[ilovexnerdsx]

absolutely incredible. thank you for this

[essinc]

what is that song they play right at the end? great video, by the way.

[AmericanFish]

The song they play at the end of the making of closer is a remix of Heresy which you can find on the Further Down The Spiral cd.

[ginasty]

thank you for this. i enjoyed it. the closer video is an amazing work of art

[SloppyCheeseFinger]

oh yeah, it is a bit like a prince song. I never realised

[AmericanFish]

Trent don't say that much. He's very funny though in part 3 when he jokes around.

[perrythefish123]

i have never actually seen mark romanek's face lol

[AmericanFish]

great vid

[fakebastard]

"fucking MTV" ha ha
