Nine Inch Nails - Ghosts IV - 36

[Sephiirah]

...like an unopened letter, thrown away...

what's inside, is left to be mystery...

[hundboi]

The end of the world......aftermath.......

[AkanemaruNayuchi]

The off key notes add a special something to this.

It's stunningly beautiful, and very haunting. It's amazing what simplicity can do.

[vanellawii]

Imagine walking through an abandoned asylum and listening to this. That's pure fear right there.

[Carlit0Tit0]

@vanellawii not really. that would be awesome :D

[vanellawii]

@Carlit0Tit0 I know right :D Still - the way the notes are off key - it makes the song really eerie and haunting. Look up "we all have dark days" by a user named "mm". AWESOME.

[kamiljakubjamroziak]

sounds little like anniversal of an interesting event of deftones

but much better :)

[phosphor112]

Holy fucking shit, saving up for the 75 dollar limited edition. This is sex to my ears.

[andbluesky]

piano is out of tune in some parts and in other is ok?

Strange though

[rikuXelric]

@andbluesky well trent reznor doesnt care he said it himself "this isnt music its feel"

[grietuke]

If only I could control my dreams , I swear, I do this song as a soundtrack ,

[deibi23]

This should be in Minecraft.

[MagicStationWagon]

thank you for uploading this

[attackman456]

I'm pretty sure even Mozart will like this

[SmittyWerbenjagorman]

Thumbs up if this makes you want to play minecraft

[Siberian16]

@SmittyWerbenjagorman no

[nirewolf0]

sitting on your back porch at night in the summertime, watching the fireflies...

such a beautiful, lonely song

[rath223]

@nirewolf0 i hear that! the serenity under the night sky so divine smokin a j [:

[somethingguy912]

@nirewolf0 ironically, you can hear the birds and the sound of the outside while he's playing the piano, which makes you wonder if they recorded this outdoors.

[ExpertiseGamer]

similar to ghosts 1..

[ImJasonForever]

this is my favorite one!

[RetardedAndRandomTV]

the ending sounds like a foresty beach with a mixture of someone spraying febreze inside. thats genius. a pure feeling of indoors and outdoors at the same time practically corresponding with each other. WOW. thats just genius. thats a beautiful way to end the album. im just, wow. thats brilliant. who can do that? has anyone ever thought of trying to illustrate a feeling of being "in-between doors"? of course a fantastic musician like reznor did

[somethingguy912]

@RetardedAndRandomTV actually, there were two bonus ghosts, Ghosts 37 and 38. The 38 is sort of a remix to demon seed and the other one is quite disturbing actually.

[eammafan1]

ive been listening through all 36 of these songs and I just new that when I got to 36 its would be a sad piano song.

[RhymesWithMorgan]

I absolutely lovee this song. I don't know why. It's just....wow. I love it.

[12345652180]

pleasant sounds.....

but boring imfho

[0rajjr0]

simply beautiful.

[Palhota]

good song for a public restroom

the awkwardness would kill everyone inside

[slick00x]

FYI... The piano is ACTUALLY IN TUNE. It's tuned to 19 EDO, not 12.

[log7871]

@slick00x idc 

[log7871]

This probably gonna scare y'all a lil but to me it does sound like a ghost story of a little girl a beautiful little girl who had an happy life ended in cold blood. her ghost lingers and the piano is out of tune cause she is so confused on why this world is so cruel even to a small child.

[FlameingAlchemistt]

@log7871 wow -_-

[souleaterEMS]

Great end for great album

[carlosspiceyweener54]

this is the most soft but powerful song on the album, simply stands above the rest and speaks to me the most

[JesusCristo2002]

@carlosspiceyweener54 you're not alone; this and Ghosts I-I (the first track off the album) ranks to be two of the best songs off the album.

[PKemmerich]

This album, this track specifically, is so beautiful it brings tears to my eyes.

[eNergizer361]

All these are shitty quality, I have the CD and it's quality is actually good. You guys should really get it.

[gaywizzy]

it scares me lol

[JesusCristo2002]

Arguably the best track (along with Ghosts I-I) off the album. "Ghosts I-IV" is arguably the best thing Reznor has publically released to date; along with "The Fragile".

[xTobys16]

i know that the sound is for effect but it sounds horrible compared to a properly tuned piano

[coldfront999]

the audio messed up

[dsyglym]

piano is a bit out of tune

[jim30333]

Yeah, I noticed that too.

[xCherryPieXx]

It's on purpose

[Johnnycakes9999]

Are all of the songs on Ghosts this quality?

[Blade3327]

I think it's for effect...

[ChristinaMagma]

No they're not, they sound waay better on CD.

[moop57]

NIN isnt really my thing, but i really like this album

[Preddykins]

We need more instrumental albums such as Ghosts these days - the method of speaking to listeners through notes alone seemed to have left music after classical music faded from common popularity, and it's something we need back in the music of culture.

[saladlegs]

agreed! when a lot of people these days say they like music what they really mean is they like words with music. music like this is much more capable that words to convey emotion

[m3talmilitia15]

Absolutely.

[XXdarktheifXX]

@Preddykins Look up Godspeed you! Black emporer. They are an amazing Post rock group.

[Preddykins]

@XXdarktheifXX Already have done a while ago my good man, wonderful instrumental peices. Any idea what Mogwai's like? Been told to have a look at them for similar reasons, not quite got round to it.

[ERRORxakaRay]

@Preddykins YES. I Love Beethoven

[KedViper]

@Preddykins Do think lyrics kinda get in the way sometimes. Like they're being pretentious or something. You know what I mean?

[RetardedAndRandomTV]

@Preddykins especially with the modern creativity we have today

[PearlJammer07]

@Preddykins This is very true. I would also like to see Trent do another instrumental album.

[thesalmonistight]

@Preddykins that would be nice but people today are either to stupid or to closed minded

[DarkGreenGadget]

@Preddykins So true

[Dakoder]

@Preddykins look towards boards of canada, ahpex twin, autechre....you'll find what you're looking for.

[TheNightsMoon]

@Preddykins Bacteria are the only organisms left with culture.

[lizXoX2008]

I love this

[blackavani]

there is something in this song i just couldn't pick up... it made me feel there's some untold story behind it...

it's really beautiful, thank you for uploading it...

and trent, thank you too for making a beautiful piece of art...

[shinunicron]

I love the fact that there is no words yet I still feel it like there is, maybe I'm crazy but this talks to me everytime I hear it.

[KillingSpreeFreesBee]

This kinda music is true art!

It adds so much to atmosphere and immersion, especially to video games and home listening!

[swisher1248]

This is the most beautiful piece of art I have been lucky enough to be a witness to. So introspective, it invokes so many feelings at once honestly it brings a tear to my eye, it reminds me of everything I have ever loved, a calming feeling came over me the first time I listened to this, right when it started sunlight came out of the clouds and illuminated my room with a golden atmosphere... perfect. What an ending to ghosts.... all i have to say is simply magnificent THANK YOU TRENT

[chunchilin]

understand what ?

[TourniQueTQ]

what is it all about :P

[Valholm]

and what is it about?

[TourniQueTQ]

it makes me think.. and understand

thank you

[eniomanos]

i came from rap but this was i'm lookin for

[Valholm]

[gentoodaemon]

good work trent!

[Lukaara]

This song reminds me of Ripe [With Decay] and Another Version of the Truth, except put together.

[clarad001]

trent is a mastermind, he is what we need in out lives, real music for our soul

[heluna]

This song remindes me of Another Version Of The Truth. There are some commonalities,but I don't know what they are. Anyway, great song!

[Akirran]

To: mypassionfruit From: Akirran WOW!! Thank you for such a beautiful gift. I don't know if Trent&company ever cruises by You Tube, but if so they should invite you over for some video game and autographs. Today you just made a difference in my life. Thank you.

[pandazenian]

what a beautiful gift NIN has given us all
