Hey 👋 I’m 41 n same thing I have lost all my friends n most of my family n almost me self I was inches now this is my swan song. Chasing the dragon 🐉 has destroyed my life i now understand what this song is about n it’s not what we all thought when it came out. I know trent before when he was lit 🔥 n I was lit 🔥 n that’s blitzed like f l’ed th f up hardcore Trent was who I cocked with first n last n this song has been there through it all ever changing my perception on what I was doing each funeral a bunch of us would unite n listen to this song n cry 😢 this song, man I don’t know we’re I would be if Trent never put this song out at least one of my hero’s is still alive . The dragon always wins in the end. 😔
This song is for anyone who ever felt like a hopeless outsider. "I just want something I can never have" rings true to me after years and years. I just feel like I'm not meant to experience this human life with the ease that others have
The stronger you are the more you need to grow,they will make your path more difficult,there is a REASON you are experiencing the difficulty,part of your job here is to discover that reason and make peace with it. Best of luck to you on this path of evolution,it will all make perfect sense soon enough.
You probably don't want to hear this but... Everyone has got something they are dragging around. There is a lucky few that have never had a hard day but for most of us "to live is to suffer". You find yourself having a good day or moment and you cherish that fucking thing. You fit somewhere I promise. What took me a long time to figure out is yeah all the holes I'm supposed to fit in are not shaped like me. Then I realized I could change my shape. I still can't fit in most of the holes but I can fit in some. And that is good enough for me. Life is never going to get easier or more fair. Now what? Good luck.
@@dlstaff99 you do though. We all do. We belong to each other!! Nobody is ever actually alone, it's an illusion of the mind that we all share. I'm here with you!! Appreciating Trent's gift to us all 🙏🙏
Music is so fucking magical. I'm 44 and I will never, ever, ever stop being amazed at how you can hear a song for the first time in 30 years and still know every, single, word.
I got pregnant at 13 and gave birth at 14… gave my son up for adoption in 1996… this song got me through after for real. Love it so much!! I have a relationship with my son today also. ♥️
My great nephew was born by his 13 yr old parents, prematurely. It was a struggle for him but that little boy overcame odds he doesn't realize. He is so happy and healthy today... everything about him makes me smile. I'm glad you decided to carry your child's life and be a part of it.
Man, Trent's so versatile... He can scream and shred guitars in songs like Ruiner and then come up with beautiful songs like this one. He is one of the most talented musicians of our time.
Francisco Gamboa his music changed a lot, now he does a lot of instrumentals. As much as I love NIN, I have to say his newer work is pretty good, it's just that I don't like it.
I'm 40 years old. Even in my teens NIN was one of my favorite bands. Music helped me threw my life of depression and anxiety. Without music the world would suck. Trent is truly gifted with so much talent.
I understand. Only us that suffer from sad sickness understand. Music is good therapy especially people who have gone through it like Trent reznor could understand that, too.
When I was addicted to heroin I used to listen to this and think that a decent life with a loving family was that thing that I could never have ... I'm now 5 years clean and sober and have my twin daughters living with me. :)
I'm 41 now an this song has changed its meaning to me so many times. Songs like this are timeless due to the fact that it can mean so much to so few. Music can bring you from the storm, get you off the ledges of the building or the bridge music is truly universal.
God bless. I know this sounds like a dumb platitude and people say it all the time and sounds insincere but I lost my mom and know God never intended us to live in this hell so your son and my mom is in a better place
Shout out to those who loved this song since their teenage years. Life has been rough for us all but if you're here reading this, listening again at 40+ know you're so much stronger than you think or know. 'It can't rain all the time' .
Remember when albums were oy released on Tuesdays and there would be lines going to buy the next cd NIN or Tool or any other group you were into. Along with Parade magazine once a month to tear out mini posters of Trent Korn and Beastie Boys to hang up on my wall... I was what in 8th or 9th grade when I first heard him sing save just turned 40 last week still jammin out with my clam out listening to Trent Rock out with his co..... You get the point right😂
NIN is serioous shit. So fucking genius, this song is so deep, so vulnerable, both in the lyrics and the melody. And the live interpretation is just breathtaking. I'm thankful I can listen to this as many times as I want, sleep to it, sing to it, cry to it and hold onto it as much as I want and need. It's a divine experience
Beautiful gem!!! And what a wonder to find your comment here. Feeling this song, please catch and care for God while God is incarnate here on earth!! Singing with the super tenacity and super power of our creators! It's 2023 and humanity's parents Mother Father of all creation is incarnate in the physical vessel playing this song to reach out to us to wakeup and call home = joyrains. These are URGENT moments!! Mom Dad have taken on every lower thought for us to wakeup to truth and innocence to be the change in the world! Love to hear from you! Luna
Reznor's first shaky steps into sobriety. You can hear the fear in his voice. Getting from here to how he is now is an accomplishment. So before you start longing for the days when he was self-destructive just to keep him pumping out the angry, angsty, coke and alcohol fueled music that you want him to make maybe stop and think about the toll it took on him. Longing for the past too much is you forsaking his evolution into a matured and celebrated composer and instead desiring for him to be a 50+ year old aging and fading rock star with a dwindling fanbase. He could have very easily turned into a self-parody like most rock stars end up but instead he disciplined himself, found a music partner he could trust and forged a different path. A healthier, better path.
Absolutely! I was 19 or so when Pretty Hate Machine came out and it spoke to me because I was in the trenches of untreated mental illness and I was numbing myself any way I could. My parents had both died from over dosing and I was heading down that same path as well. He spoke to me because he was familiar. Every song spoke to my broken soul. I’m so ecstatic for him and how he broke free and took those first terrifying steps all of us have in recovery. I hate when say they wish Trent was the way he used to be or that he sold out etc. Obviously those people know nothing of the darkness of addiction. They have no idea how damn scary it is to face your first big life crisis head in with nothing to numb you and your real feelings hit you with an intensity you never thought possible and all you want to do is get high and make it all better. Trent is a light to me. I’d never ever want him or anyone to feel the pain of addiction again. Sorry to rant but this just hits such a raw nerve for me. I wish everyone health and sobriety. 💜 Hadassah
This man has saved my life countless times. He is devilishly talented. And my respect he shall have, all of his days. Thank you Trent. You probably will never the know the extent of the gift you gave.
This is underrated to a level where I can't even understand how any song is overground. Absolute genius and so painfully human. And what a magnificent, passionate performance. Literally moved to tears by the longing.....
Damn. I'm literally 41, currently running through his music since sometime last night till now. I haven't listened to Trent since I was in my early 20s. Back then the music gave me a valid place to honestly experience some very dark complex, confusing feelings and thoughts. I couldn't sleep last night and came across a video of nin' and have been listening to all their songs from then untill now. Still haven't slept. It helps to be reminded that pain is integral in the human experience, and that there's beauty in suffering, as well as power in honestly experiencing it.
Besides enjoying this beautiful performance, I also enjoy reading this comment section. People are sharing the things that they can never have, about love, grief, loss, and longing. And how people reply to them, telling them that they're not alone, telling them they can get through this.. it's just wonderful.
@@nadiamurchie1949those words mean nothing. If you wanted to help someone you would tell them the opposite. Don't accept your mediocrity. Hit the gym, put more hours in at work, practice your instrument harder. Wherever it is your lacking in life, do something about it. A little self pity is fine as long as your using it as motivation but you should not be telling people to accept the things in life that make them unhappy and that they have the power to change.
Even after so many years, the rawness and genuine emotion in this recording still haunts me. The song violently grabs your heart, only wanting to hold and cherish it, now sorry and ashamed it hurt so much. Trent's voice cracking and finding pitch, the slight timing errors on the piano, and all of these little unintended sounds all work perfectly for the piece.
This song resonates within my soul. I've been listening to this song on repeat for the last month. The girl I loved and mother of our child was involved in tragic car accident. A few months before this happened we had went through a nasty breakup but I still loved her. In the few weeks before the accident we had began working on rebuilding our relationship. Everywhere I look, you're all I see Just a fading fucking reminder of who I used to be I just want something I can never have.
Words cannot express the tremendous loss you experienced - the only thing I can say is embrace and love the child you had together and hope time heals your heart and soul brother-feel your pain when I listen to this song...... Blozo
A song that can mean so much; yet in so many different ways. One aches for a broken heart; another aches for lost time with those they loved; a loved ones passing and the loss that manifests. A soul-shattering slap of giving up what you thought you wanted for another to be happy.... Thanks Trent.
I'm going through that soul shattering slap at this very moment and your comment has me in tears right now. Because it's true. As dark as this song is it can be very therapeutic. Thank you for the reminder buddy and thank you Trent!
@@afn420 I hope that slap didn't throw you totally. It did me for quite a bit; you were correct on the therapeutic use of desolation. It's the getting back up part... That is where it really gets fun.
Amen! Never thought I could love this song more!!! As a 15 yr old and in love, and now as a 48 yr old widow. Incredible! Love you Trent! And thank you for posting this. I'm so grateful to have come across it!!!!💜💜💜
Beautiful gem!!! And what a wonder to find your comment here. Feeling this song, please catch and care for God while God is incarnate here on earth!! Singing with the super tenacity and super power of our creators who have made us to be strong beings! It's 2023 and humanity's parents Mother Father of all creation is incarnate in the physical vessel playing this song to reach out to us to wakeup and call home = joyrains. These are URGENT moments!! Mom Dad have taken on every lower thought for us to wakeup to truth and innocence to be the change in the world! Love to reconnect and hear from you! Luna
An Arizona sunset at the beginning of dusk. Up on a hill all alone, sitting in my car. I'm here because my husband had passed away and I needed to get away. I turn on the car stereo and this song. I scream it, I cry it, I whisper it. It helped me release the anger I had for him leaving me too early. It still resonates to this day but it's easier to listen to. Thank you Mr. R. You have helped me heal.
My brother died in 1994 this song reminds me of our life the promised things that would happen and if certain things happened to tell him I was 14 years old ....I miss him so much 😢
Hands down my favorite NIN song. It helped me get through one of the darkest moments in my life. Listening to it today takes me back, but makes me realize how much the hurt strengthened me.
I still recall the taste of your tears Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore Scraping through my head til I don't wanna sleep anymore You make this all go away 2x I'm down to just one thing I'm starting to scare myself You make this all go away 2x I just want something I can never have You were always one to show me how Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now This thing is slowly taking me apart Grey would be the color if I had a heart Come on tell me You make this all go away 2x Im down to just one thing I'm starting to scare myself You make this all go away You make it all go away I just want something I can never have I'm this place it seems like such a shame Though it all looks different now I know it's still the same Everywhere I look your all I see Just all fading fucking reminder Of who I used to be Come on tell me You make this all go away 2x I'm down to just one thing I'm starting to scare myself You make this all go away You make it all go away I just want something I can never have
Strong emotion,heartfelt and such a powerful meaning . With each word the pain, sorrow, anger,emptiness sends xhills up your spine and heart race with eyes overflowing like a waterfall!!! So much , ao many different emotions and thoughts/ memories! I totally relate to this song 1000000 different ways!! ! Wonrfyl/ thoughts

Congratulations!!! I've been clean of heroin for 5 years and it's so worth it! Full disclosure tho: I'm on the methadone program self tapering off (at 60mg) but ppl who think that's as good as being a junkie can suck it. I'm not getting high off it at all, I have held a job for 3 solid years and have a place to live instead of sleeping on the streets. I got cured of hep c and I'm doing great. My friends who didn't quit all have AIDS or are dead. Basically
I had an od amount in that needle that night… I listened to this song for four hours over and over. He saved me that night. Thank you Trent for everything you have given me
In 2014 after a 20 year marriage I lived on a beach in Lake Erie for 2 years and this song kept me from taking my life multiple times! I’m still here on Lake Erie thank you Trent for your spirit❣️
This brings me back to the first time I ever felt alive.. and in love with someone I gave my everything to and knowing that it wouldn't last forever I still dove in headfirst.. It hurts 💔 but I definitely don't regret one second of being with her.. sometimes people never find true love 💘 💔 and it's really good when it's alive but when it falls apart ouch..
Did the same...that effortless pure joy...he was the cure to my unfounded depression... Without warning he revoked himself from this reality...it's been over a year now...not sure I'll ever fill the void...he owns parts of me I gave without conditions...
Одно из самых сильных во всех смыслах этого слова музыкальных произведений современной музыки. Лучше этого наверное уже не будет. Трент уникальный человек, гениальный музыкант. Фантастика.
You are absolutely correct. Trent Rezner is one of the greatest, and underrated, musicians of all time. He doesn't get half of the recognition he deserves.
Dylan I'm sure you are appalled. I'm sure you know how many innocent people suffered from that " spree shooting " and still , in bad taste thought it would be tasteful . I'm into weird and twisted shit myself , but I felt the need to call you on that bro
This song, from my ex's favorite band, is exactly how I feel about him. 11 years and two broken hearts and a marriage later, I still love him. I will forever.
Been there done that. It doesn't get better but it gets easier to handle. My ex fiancé is still one of the people I think about all the time even though it ended 18 years ago.
hashbrownash1 I still feel the same way about a girl. Sucks even though the two of us have moved on with our life's. She slept with a fake homie which I whooped his ass not because of her due to an accumulation of other things. Yet I still love her. I wonder if she still loves me. Shes just a phone call away. I can easily email her or Facebook. But I could never go back to her. So I learned to move on and be happy. However this bitch still remains in a secret tiny box locked away in my heart. Forever. Thank you Emilia
40. Still Here. As a youth, interpreting this very song felt so different. Now all these years later…. Addiction, divorce…. Dammit Trent. You spoke to all of us.
I relate so much to the pain trent Reznor puts in his music.although it seems to make me more depressed it simultaneously helps me cope with the personal heartache in my life.thank you sir for putting out such timeless masterpieces that stay so relevant no matter how old they are
I was 16 the first time i heard this song. It has alot of meaning to me. It is so hauntingly beautiful. Trent is a beautiful Human being....i could listen to him sing all day every day. I totally get him. He is pretty amazing all the way around!
It's raining outside this morning after I've been drinking wine and smoking cigarettes all night, and the rain is dripping from my roof and the raindrops are also falling on leaves on a bush in my front yard in unison with trents piano keystrokes while I think about a lady that I want... I'm sincerely crying tears right now, I am totally feeling this. I just want something I can never have.
Way more compelling than the song. I copy-pasted with the intention of stealing for a song. Maybe not "stealing" stealing just for inspo. I used to drink and smoke till sun-up and that's when I felt the most me. I liked a lady too. Very much. But I never even hoped to be with her. I literally dreamed about it but dreams and hopes are not the same thing.
Much like Keenan, Trent’s music is cerebral and taps into unconscious areas that trigger powerful emotional responses. It’s amazing. True talent. True genius. This is the type of music I seek as a sort of cleanse or purge.
I'm only alive because NIN had so many songs that helped me realize I'm not the only one who has lived through undescribable pain and torment, only Trent was able to put it into words that made me feel like I wasn't alone and can overcome the darkness.
This was my son's favorite song. He killed himself June 2017, and I wonder all the time...Today is his 45th birthday...So I went on line to hear this song,,and I found some of the 'interpretations" that fans had..Believe it or not by soul was rested.
I've been a fan of NIN and Trent for so many years... And I still can't put into words my respect and connection with him. It's truly beyond words. He's a genius. And he's brought me through so many tough moments. I'm so grateful for him 💖
... every time I hear this song I think of someone that I shared my life with, I feel like "gray would be the color if I had a heart".. I will never love anyone again.. I give up on love. Something I can never have... you know who you are. If there is a chance in hell you see this. I'm always thinkin of you.
I remember seeing him playing this at the empire room in Cleveland when he was noboday. Such a good dude and biggest talent ever..man this is a classic
@@schwany6703 oh please you cut the shit. I have 5 kids all gen z. Cry somewhere else. Don’t be part of the problem. Be part of the solution to make your world better.
@@erica.casimira there are dozens of problems with the world, all dropped up on gen Z by the previous generations like you guys, and the horrible boomers. Gen Z people kill themselves at unprecedented and massive rates, mental illness runs rampant, the economy is decaying, technology and the digital world have made life hell, the future job market is bleak, housing is ruined forever, yet you chumps still claim to somehow have had a worse run than others, with your surface level "problems." the reality is, the world is ruined, and there is no solution, all people can do it put their head down and bear the god awful future you all have thrust upon your children and their children. I'm not crying, I'm pissed at old fossils like you for this state, and the infinite delusion you have about it
I miss you Scotty 💜 in this moment and in every moment. This song means so much more to me now than when I first heard it... And so many years ago, that was not possible.
Goodness, this performance gave me goosebumps. You can really feel his pain and longing, such deep loneliness. I want to bake him cookies and cuddle him for ages.
At 60, been an addict for 48 of those. Never had the want to stop. Never will. I remember every heart I shattered and I still feel the millions of pieces of my own, scattered throughout the fabric of time, each and every piece. That is the terrible lie. The illusion of belonging. The lie of love. It's just hate turned inside out and rendered impotent. And one line is absolutely wrong. It's a faded fucking reminder of who I thought I'd be. The most powerful emotion that overrides everything else? The energy that created the universe. Soul crushing loneliness.
Trent, Literally my FAVORITE song of yours!! It has hit me on the DEEPEST level since 25 years ago when It first broght me to tears...Thank you for the original and Thank you for this SIIICK rendition!! More like this 1 Please!! 💜🤘🏻
Wow, this is good. My taste in clothing might have been questionable at 15, but apparently my taste in music was not. (I am taking a tour of my taste in music at 15. My last stop was Pearl Jam Evenflow, next is the Violent Femmes.)
In English we did a project on music to get to know people....we had to pick one song from ur fav band and I picked this one....people thought I was gonna be the kid who would shoot up the school #noregrets
Dave Duvalier you are Sooo right..the person that understands this would be the one to talk someone out of a horrific act! I'm in my 40s, a professional and I still get judged for loving this music. It is art from every aspect.also best concert in nyc 2017..so glad I grew up with the best music..I share with my child
"Something I Can Never Have" I still recall the taste of your tears. Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears. My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore. Scraping through my head 'till I don't want to sleep anymore. You make this all go away. You make this all go away. I'm down to just one thing. And I'm starting to scare myself. You make this all go away. You make this all go away. I just want something. I just want something I can never have You always were the one to show me how Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now. This thing is slowly taking me apart. Grey would be the color if I had a heart. Come on tell me In this place it seems like such a shame. Though it all looks different now, I know it's still the same Everywhere I look you're all I see. Just a fading fucking reminder of who I used to be. Come on tell me I just want something I can never have
I lost my grandson last year on Mother's Daybefore he turned 18 he died of polycystic Kidney disease so heartbreaking but I had to play this beautiful song. He's with my son who died when he was 18 they are buried next to each other. This song means the world to me always been a Nine Inch Nails fan and now Atticus
AMAZING!!..........Absolutely AMAZING!!! 30 years ago I spent so many nights drowning in this track! Even now, it washes over me like a tsunami! Unbelievably powerful! Thank you Trent for making the soundtrack to my life! 'Pretty Hate Machine' Just Amazing!!
All the people in their 40s commenting. Wow, I'm in that crowd too. 40 years old...this album was stellar. The whole CD was a weird combo of sad and romantic.

Years after i first heard this as a teen and cried, i'm now 41 and listening to it and crying. I know what it means now more than ever.
Same
Right same here
The Absolute Best!!!!!
Hey 👋 I’m 41 n same thing I have lost all my friends n most of my family n almost me self I was inches now this is my swan song. Chasing the dragon 🐉 has destroyed my life i now understand what this song is about n it’s not what we all thought when it came out. I know trent before when he was lit 🔥 n I was lit 🔥 n that’s blitzed like f l’ed th f up hardcore Trent was who I cocked with first n last n this song has been there through it all ever changing my perception on what I was doing each funeral a bunch of us would unite n listen to this song n cry 😢 this song, man I don’t know we’re I would be if Trent never put this song out at least one of my hero’s is still alive . The dragon always wins in the end. 😔
I’ll be 42 in a week
The older you get, the more this song will hit you.
...& it just can't stop~
So true
Truth
Damn, you are spot on. This shit Hurt Me...
since I was a teen it's hit me, and you're right. Every year it's more relevant
This song is for anyone who ever felt like a hopeless outsider. "I just want something I can never have" rings true to me after years and years. I just feel like I'm not meant to experience this human life with the ease that others have
The stronger you are the more you need to grow,they will make your path more difficult,there is a REASON you are experiencing the difficulty,part of your job here is to discover that reason and make peace with it. Best of luck to you on this path of evolution,it will all make perfect sense soon enough.
You probably don't want to hear this but... Everyone has got something they are dragging around. There is a lucky few that have never had a hard day but for most of us "to live is to suffer". You find yourself having a good day or moment and you cherish that fucking thing.
You fit somewhere I promise. What took me a long time to figure out is yeah all the holes I'm supposed to fit in are not shaped like me. Then I realized I could change my shape. I still can't fit in most of the holes but I can fit in some. And that is good enough for me. Life is never going to get easier or more fair. Now what? Good luck.

Feel the same way.. I don't belong anywhere
@@dlstaff99 you do though. We all do. We belong to each other!! Nobody is ever actually alone, it's an illusion of the mind that we all share. I'm here with you!! Appreciating Trent's gift to us all 🙏🙏
Music is so fucking magical. I'm 44 and I will never, ever, ever stop being amazed at how you can hear a song for the first time in 30 years and still know every, single, word.
Yeah it's pretty phenomenal
I got pregnant at 13 and gave birth at 14… gave my son up for adoption in 1996… this song got me through after for real. Love it so much!! I have a relationship with my son today also. ♥️
You did the right thing for both of you, so happy he is in your life
So glad you have reconnected with your son. Do have a listen to our music for these times. Blessings from New Zealand, Unity in Diversity.
you did the right thing for both you and him. its so beautiful you two could reconnect :)
My great nephew was born by his 13 yr old parents, prematurely. It was a struggle for him but that little boy overcame odds he doesn't realize. He is so happy and healthy today... everything about him makes me smile. I'm glad you decided to carry your child's life and be a part of it.
Your story gave me ❤felt chills.
Man, Trent's so versatile... He can scream and shred guitars in songs like Ruiner and then come up with beautiful songs like this one. He is one of the most talented musicians of our time.
I couldn't agree with you more
+Scott Lucky haha, just said almost the same thing before I scrolled down and read your comment.
Trent sucks now!
Francisco Gamboa
his music changed a lot, now he does a lot of instrumentals. As much as I love NIN, I have to say his newer work is pretty good, it's just that I don't like it.
Personally, I love his music, I just can't seem to respond to his vocals. He doesn't sound as good a vocalist as his arrangements necessitate.
The fact that this song was written in 1989 and Trent is still alive to this day able to perform it still gives me hope 🖤
Whoa didn’t know that it was written the year I was born and for me it has so much meaning - r.I.p JAY L CRAIN JR

@@amandaeubanks35 are you related to Shauna eubanks from Oklahoma?
I think in the end, rehab, his wife and kids saved him...otherwise I don't think he would still be here
I'm 40 years old. Even in my teens NIN was one of my favorite bands. Music helped me threw my life of depression and anxiety. Without music the world would suck. Trent is truly gifted with so much talent.
Well 46 here . Sound rat in 94' NIN show really hit me to be the sound or vibe of my adolescence. Hey there, you're a survivor!
I understand. Only us that suffer from sad sickness understand. Music is good therapy especially people who have gone through it like Trent reznor could understand that, too.
Hi I recommend an indie rock song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
You're not alone. Class 1982 here.
I'm 52
And never get tired of NIN 💞❤
When I was addicted to heroin I used to listen to this and think that a decent life with a loving family was that thing that I could never have ... I'm now 5 years clean and sober and have my twin daughters living with me. :)
I'm 41 now an this song has changed its meaning to me so many times. Songs like this are timeless due to the fact that it can mean so much to so few. Music can bring you from the storm, get you off the ledges of the building or the bridge music is truly universal.
Amen to that. 43 now and I absolutely agree...
Beautifully said.
44, going on 45 and this song still wrecks me.
I just want someone to love me.something will never have
Timeless.
I lost my son in 03 and this is the song that tore me up. I love and miss you son everyday of my life.
😢 I'm looking for the right word s, there are none .
From the bottom of my heart I truly heard felt each and every word Aaron.
Alive in your memories and heart ❤
God bless. I know this sounds like a dumb platitude and people say it all the time and sounds insincere but I lost my mom and know God never intended us to live in this hell so your son and my mom is in a better place
I am SO VERY SORRY for you. I hope and pray you find SOME inner peace.... Somewhere. 🙏
He is hopefully sending all his love from beyond....the great beyond for all of us ...
I'm 48 and haven't hard this song in probably over 20 years..
Still gives me full body chill bumps
Me 2! Turning 48 9/25. Been listening to this since 94 after hearing it in Natural Born Killers!
Shout out to those who loved this song since their teenage years. Life has been rough for us all but if you're here reading this, listening again at 40+ know you're so much stronger than you think or know. 'It can't rain all the time' .
Remember when albums were oy released on Tuesdays and there would be lines going to buy the next cd NIN or Tool or any other group you were into. Along with Parade magazine once a month to tear out mini posters of Trent Korn and Beastie Boys to hang up on my wall... I was what in 8th or 9th grade when I first heard him sing save just turned 40 last week still jammin out with my clam out listening to Trent Rock out with his co..... You get the point right😂
Amen bro the rain will stop
Ur so right
❤❤ so much 90's reference ❤ that all hits
The sky won’t fall forever 🖤🤘🏻
As talented as Trent Reznor is … He is still so under rated in my opinion. Truly remarkable music 🎶.
NiN is my favourite band, and I don't think that is true, Angel. He is regarded as one of the most influential musicians of all time.
VERY 👍 TRUE!
The most underrated. He may be the greatest country music writer of all time.
He is highly rated by people like you and me. Nothing less nothing more.
It’s sad to say but… his music was better when he was drinking. I’m glad he kicked it though💁
NIN is serioous shit. So fucking genius, this song is so deep, so vulnerable, both in the lyrics and the melody. And the live interpretation is just breathtaking. I'm thankful I can listen to this as many times as I want, sleep to it, sing to it, cry to it and hold onto it as much as I want and need. It's a divine experience
Beautiful gem!!! And what a wonder to find your comment here. Feeling this song, please catch and care for God while God is incarnate here on earth!! Singing with the super tenacity and super power of our creators! It's 2023 and humanity's parents Mother Father of all creation is incarnate in the physical vessel playing this song to reach out to us to wakeup and call home = joyrains. These are URGENT moments!!

Reznor's first shaky steps into sobriety. You can hear the fear in his voice. Getting from here to how he is now is an accomplishment. So before you start longing for the days when he was self-destructive just to keep him pumping out the angry, angsty, coke and alcohol fueled music that you want him to make maybe stop and think about the toll it took on him.
Longing for the past too much is you forsaking his evolution into a matured and celebrated composer and instead desiring for him to be a 50+ year old aging and fading rock star with a dwindling fanbase. He could have very easily turned into a self-parody like most rock stars end up but instead he disciplined himself, found a music partner he could trust and forged a different path. A healthier, better path.
I was going through the very same thing myself...i can still feel my pain and his in the early NIN and this one as well...
There's not a single song of his that I don't absolutely love and feel on some deeper level, even his EDM stuff. Kek! 😁
Sobriety never is accomplished, there is always a counter in your head forever
Hes always been beautifully vulnerable. There is no one out there like him imo
Absolutely! I was 19 or so when Pretty Hate Machine came out and it spoke to me because I was in the trenches of untreated mental illness and I was numbing myself any way I could. My parents had both died from over dosing and I was heading down that same path as well. He spoke to me because he was familiar. Every song spoke to my broken soul. I’m so ecstatic for him and how he broke free and took those first terrifying steps all of us have in recovery. I hate when say they wish Trent was the way he used to be or that he sold out etc. Obviously those people know nothing of the darkness of addiction. They have no idea how damn scary it is to face your first big life crisis head in with nothing to numb you and your real feelings hit you with an intensity you never thought possible and all you want to do is get high and make it all better. Trent is a light to me. I’d never ever want him or anyone to feel the pain of addiction again. Sorry to rant but this just hits such a raw nerve for me. I wish everyone health and sobriety. 💜 Hadassah
This man has saved my life countless times. He is devilishly talented. And my respect he shall have, all of his days. Thank you Trent. You probably will never the know the extent of the gift you gave.
❤
This is underrated to a level where I can't even understand how any song is overground. Absolute genius and so painfully human. And what a magnificent, passionate performance. Literally moved to tears by the longing.....
This song reduces me to tears every time i listen to it. I regret nothing.
@Brian real men cry...you're the bitch😵
Total badass
I'd say this song is far from overrated. Willing to bet that a good 99% of NIN fans have this one in their top ten favorites.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Damn. I'm literally 41, currently running through his music since sometime last night till now. I haven't listened to Trent since I was in my early 20s. Back then the music gave me a valid place to honestly experience some very dark complex, confusing feelings and thoughts.
I couldn't sleep last night and came across a video of nin' and have been listening to all their songs from then untill now. Still haven't slept. It helps to be reminded that pain is integral in the human experience, and that there's beauty in suffering, as well as power in honestly experiencing it.
That is exactly something that I needed to be told and hear right now. Thank you.
Besides enjoying this beautiful performance, I also enjoy reading this comment section. People are sharing the things that they can never have, about love, grief, loss, and longing. And how people reply to them, telling them that they're not alone, telling them they can get through this.. it's just wonderful.
People love to talk about themselves on the internet
Also it's nice since capitalism I mean you tube won't let me read anything else on my phone unless I go premium 😒 but yeah it's good times 😌

Perfectly put.
Just a fading fucking reminder of who i used to be.
Come on, tell me
🖤🖤
hope you're okay , big hugs, nurture your younger self, still in there xx
@@nadiamurchie1949those words mean nothing.
If you wanted to help someone you would tell them the opposite.
Don't accept your mediocrity. Hit the gym, put more hours in at work, practice your instrument harder. Wherever it is your lacking in life, do something about it. A little self pity is fine as long as your using it as motivation but you should not be telling people to accept the things in life that make them unhappy and that they have the power to change.
But honestly I like who I am today more than when I was younger. I'm more physically active and have a healthy social life.
Even after so many years, the rawness and genuine emotion in this recording still haunts me. The song violently grabs your heart, only wanting to hold and cherish it, now sorry and ashamed it hurt so much. Trent's voice cracking and finding pitch, the slight timing errors on the piano, and all of these little unintended sounds all work perfectly for the piece.

This song resonates within my soul.
I've been listening to this song on repeat for the last month.
The girl I loved and mother of our child was involved in tragic car accident. A few months before this happened we had went through a nasty breakup but I still loved her. In the few weeks before the accident we had began working on rebuilding our relationship.
Everywhere I look, you're all I see
Just a fading fucking reminder of who I used to be
I just want something I can never have.
im so sorry to hear that.. condolences!
Love to you deeply, Travis Summers.
sorry to hear that. she's watching over you.
....life passes by in a glimpse and we lose the moments...smile at the sky
Words cannot express the tremendous loss you experienced - the only thing I can say is embrace and love the child you had together and hope time heals your heart and soul brother-feel your pain when I listen to this song......
Blozo
A song that can mean so much; yet in so many different ways. One aches for a broken heart; another aches for lost time with those they loved; a loved ones passing and the loss that manifests. A soul-shattering slap of giving up what you thought you wanted for another to be happy.... Thanks Trent.
I'm going through that soul shattering slap at this very moment and your comment has me in tears right now. Because it's true. As dark as this song is it can be very therapeutic. Thank you for the reminder buddy and thank you Trent!
@@afn420 we all go a little mad at times..... Just keep on waking up; that's the goal.

"Grey would be the color if i had a heart" - after so many years this is still briliant.
An Arizona sunset at the beginning of dusk. Up on a hill all alone, sitting in my car. I'm here because my husband had passed away and I needed to get away. I turn on the car stereo and this song. I scream it, I cry it, I whisper it. It helped me release the anger I had for him leaving me too early. It still resonates to this day but it's easier to listen to. Thank you Mr. R. You have helped me heal.
@peterscott1181 HI Peter, yes I'm doing well. Thank you so much for asking
My brother died in 1994 this song reminds me of our life the promised things that would happen and if certain things happened to tell him I was 14 years old ....I miss him so much 😢
Hands down my favorite NIN song. It helped me get through one of the darkest moments in my life. Listening to it today takes me back, but makes me realize how much the hurt strengthened me.
Hi I Recommend a song called 'The Bond Villain' By Robert Nix
I as well had to learn an be grateful of the hurt that pushed me to become free of those things that were defining me
I was a moderate fan of NIN back in the day, but songs like this makes them timeless.
I still recall the taste of your tears
Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears
My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore
Scraping through my head til I don't wanna sleep anymore
You make this all go away 2x
I'm down to just one thing
I'm starting to scare myself
You make this all go away 2x
I just want something I can never have
You were always one to show me how
Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now
This thing is slowly taking me apart
Grey would be the color if I had a heart
Come on tell me
You make this all go away 2x
Im down to just one thing
I'm starting to scare myself
You make this all go away
You make it all go away
I just want something I can never have
I'm this place it seems like such a shame
Though it all looks different now
I know it's still the same
Everywhere I look your all I see
Just all fading fucking reminder
Of who I used to be
Come on tell me
You make this all go away 2x
I'm down to just one thing
I'm starting to scare myself
You make this all go away
You make it all go away
I just want something I can never have
Strong emotion,heartfelt and such a powerful meaning . With each word the pain, sorrow, anger,emptiness sends xhills up your spine and heart race with eyes overflowing like a waterfall!!! So much , ao many different emotions and thoughts/ memories! I totally relate to this song 1000000 different ways!! ! Wonrfyl/ thoughts

Full disclosure tho: I'm on the methadone program self tapering off (at 60mg) but ppl who think that's as good as being a junkie can suck it. I'm not getting high off it at all, I have held a job for 3 solid years and have a place to live instead of sleeping on the streets. I got cured of hep c and I'm doing great.

I had an od amount in that needle that night… I listened to this song for four hours over and over. He saved me that night. Thank you Trent for everything you have given me
This touches still today. I'm 43. And yeah. I feel this. Love this song and all your music. Playing always in my playlist.💗✌️
This has been my favorite song ever since I was 14. I'm 36 now and its still resonates and relatable in so many ways. Trent you sir are a poet
Even after all the years I ve heard this song it still touches the deepest part of soul ♾👌
O
I love music that touches the deepest and darkest and hiding feelings of your of lost souls and this one always hits deep 🤘♾
He is so underrated I think hes one of the greatest vocalists ever
I can't turn the volume up loud enough for this song. A primal scream of the soul.
I listened to this song to deal with crippling loneliness. I know the words by heart. It helped me so much.
Over 30 years later and still one of the best songs ever made.
In 2014 after a 20 year marriage I lived on a beach in Lake Erie for 2 years and this song kept me from taking my life multiple times! I’m still here on Lake Erie thank you Trent for your spirit❣️
Most emotional and powerful there is. Great performance.
This is such a well written song.. The stillness of his mind.. Till when the thoughts of his love starts to flood and drown his mind
Incredible
I was growing up on this music back in the 90's. This is my world
This brings me back to the first time I ever felt alive.. and in love with someone I gave my everything to and knowing that it wouldn't last forever I still dove in headfirst.. It hurts 💔 but I definitely don't regret one second of being with her.. sometimes people never find true love 💘 💔 and it's really good when it's alive but when it falls apart ouch..
Did the same...that effortless pure joy...he was the cure to my unfounded depression...
Without warning he revoked himself from this reality...it's been over a year now...not sure I'll ever fill the void...he owns parts of me I gave without conditions...
Одно из самых сильных во всех смыслах этого слова музыкальных произведений современной музыки. Лучше этого наверное уже не будет. Трент уникальный человек, гениальный музыкант. Фантастика.
Несомненно!
You are absolutely correct. Trent Rezner is one of the greatest, and underrated, musicians of all time. He doesn't get half of the recognition he deserves.
This song gives me feels I've never felt
You thought the same 17 years ago.
Dylan wyd you're dead get gone
+Dylan oh wow very impressive if I do say so myself
is your profile pic literally columbine shooter, Dylan klebold???? that's tasteless and repulsive
Dylan I'm sure you are appalled. I'm sure you know how many innocent people suffered from that " spree shooting " and still , in bad taste thought it would be tasteful . I'm into weird and twisted shit myself , but I felt the need to call you on that bro
This song, from my ex's favorite band, is exactly how I feel about him. 11 years and two broken hearts and a marriage later, I still love him. I will forever.
+Idtelos Grow up.
Been there done that. It doesn't get better but it gets easier to handle. My ex fiancé is still one of the people I think about all the time even though it ended 18 years ago.
SAWFT is a Sin he did too, I bet he's fighting back tears and had to resort to acting like an idiot.. lol
hashbrownash1 i still love you tio
hashbrownash1 I still feel the same way about a girl. Sucks even though the two of us have moved on with our life's. She slept with a fake homie which I whooped his ass not because of her due to an accumulation of other things. Yet I still love her. I wonder if she still loves me. Shes just a phone call away. I can easily email her or Facebook. But I could never go back to her. So I learned to move on and be happy. However this bitch still remains in a secret tiny box locked away in my heart. Forever. Thank you Emilia
I hate how much I love this song. Every time I hear it, reminds no matter how much I heal, I will allways have scars in my memories.
20+ years later and it hits just as hard as the first time I heard it all those years ago.
2019 and this song still brings tears. Brilliant lyrics, brilliant performance. Does not get better than this.
i can hear this 1000 times in a row.. and each and every time.. i still get goosebumps
40. Still Here. As a youth, interpreting this very song felt so different. Now all these years later…. Addiction, divorce…. Dammit Trent. You spoke to all of us.
I relate so much to the pain trent Reznor puts in his music.although it seems to make me more depressed it simultaneously helps me cope with the personal heartache in my life.thank you sir for putting out such timeless masterpieces that stay so relevant no matter how old they are
so f'ing emotional. it's palpable.
I was 16 the first time i heard this song. It has alot of meaning to me. It is so hauntingly beautiful. Trent is a beautiful Human being....i could listen to him sing all day every day. I totally get him. He is pretty amazing all the way around!
It's raining outside this morning after I've been drinking wine and smoking cigarettes all night, and the rain is dripping from my roof and the raindrops are also falling on leaves on a bush in my front yard in unison with trents piano keystrokes while I think about a lady that I want... I'm sincerely crying tears right now, I am totally feeling this. I just want something I can never have.
Remember I taught you a quad core is faster than a dual core 've German Intel. Bluffing fire
I hope you’re doing well now bro
Way more compelling than the song. I copy-pasted with the intention of stealing for a song. Maybe not "stealing" stealing just for inspo. I used to drink and smoke till sun-up and that's when I felt the most me. I liked a lady too. Very much. But I never even hoped to be with her. I literally dreamed about it but dreams and hopes are not the same thing.
Much like Keenan, Trent’s music is cerebral and taps into unconscious areas that trigger powerful emotional responses. It’s amazing. True talent. True genius. This is the type of music I seek as a sort of cleanse or purge.
I wish Tapeworm was what it was supposed to be
it's time to watch "natural born killers" (1994) again ...great story and epic soundtrack! ...Mickey & Mallory are the best :p
I said that last night. But then popped in People Under the Stairs but ready tonight
What's that movie about?
@@Mitchery watch it
“Grey would be the color if I had a heart”
His voice is so enthrilling - even or espaecially when he sings so quietly.
With such a powerful voice it's never quiet.
Enthralling
I love the sulity of the Piano and the lyric “you make it all go away.” 🌺😁♥️
This song is... I haven't got the words. Gives me goosebumps. That piano is amazing ❤
I'm only alive because NIN had so many songs that helped me realize I'm not the only one who has lived through undescribable pain and torment, only Trent was able to put it into words that made me feel like I wasn't alone and can overcome the darkness.
It's 2020 and I'm still so happy every time I hear his breath throughout this song. Keep breathing guys!
This is the MOST personal song for me... Beautiful & heartbreaking... I cry every time :(
This was my son's favorite song. He killed himself June 2017, and I wonder all the time...Today is his 45th birthday...So I went on line to hear this song,,and I found some of the 'interpretations" that fans had..Believe it or not by soul was rested.
same..
I've been a fan of NIN and Trent for so many years... And I still can't put into words my respect and connection with him. It's truly beyond words. He's a genius. And he's brought me through so many tough moments. I'm so grateful for him 💖
imagine making a song this good. i mean its my dream. simple and pure. every bit ive ever wanted to share to the world.
Such a powerful song, really sums up my issues with depression-induced anxiety disorders...
THE Best song ever composed, means so much to so many about everyone. That song we want to give us comfort in a harsh world.
... every time I hear this song I think of someone that I shared my life with, I feel like "gray would be the color if I had a heart".. I will never love anyone again.. I give up on love. Something I can never have... you know who you are. If there is a chance in hell you see this. I'm always thinkin of you.
I know the feeling. Hang in there. It gets easier as time passes. Good luck.
It never stops hurting, it only gets easier with time. Just leave that space in your heart for them and keep moving forward.
shara murphy Shara, I saw it. I didn't know you felt this way about me.
I hope you ran to her!
U always were the one to show me how
I remember seeing him playing this at the empire room in Cleveland when he was noboday. Such a good dude and biggest talent ever..man this is a classic
Stunning. Anyone who doesn't get this just doesn't get music.
Well said
Just.. how could anyone dislike this?
@@reb5335 probably a Swans fan, listen to In My Garden by them
Or hasn't ever felt anything any deeper than a thimble half full of water.
Or life
The way Trent completely lets go of his voice near the ending is so chilling and raw.
Kids now a days will never know how much this song hit a nerve. We won’t have music like this for a long time coming. Gen X forever😂
I'm 19 and just came across this song randomly yesterday. I like it quite a lot
Hi I recommend a song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
Gen Z suffers more than any generation before them. cut the shit. you were dealt a wonderful world where it was difficult to be miserable
@@schwany6703 oh please you cut the shit. I have 5 kids all gen z. Cry somewhere else. Don’t be part of the problem. Be part of the solution to make your world better.
@@erica.casimira there are dozens of problems with the world, all dropped up on gen Z by the previous generations like you guys, and the horrible boomers. Gen Z people kill themselves at unprecedented and massive rates, mental illness runs rampant, the economy is decaying, technology and the digital world have made life hell, the future job market is bleak, housing is ruined forever, yet you chumps still claim to somehow have had a worse run than others, with your surface level "problems." the reality is, the world is ruined, and there is no solution, all people can do it put their head down and bear the god awful future you all have thrust upon your children and their children. I'm not crying, I'm pissed at old fossils like you for this state, and the infinite delusion you have about it
I miss you Scotty 💜 in this moment and in every moment. This song means so much more to me now than when I first heard it... And so many years ago, that was not possible.
33 fuckin years later and it still hurts. This song will never not hit the feels.
So many years ago I first heard this...still puts me in a wierd place mentally. Will always love this song.
who's listening in 2024?
Me, first time I really heard it.😅
Your first time hearing this song ? Are you young?
Me. I hope to be listening in 2044.
Right here in Mississippi
Here . Full absorbed . Feel it more then ever
That piano still haunts my heart 30 yrs later ❤
I just listened to him sing this at 52. Still one of the best songs(and live performances)I have ever seen.
52 too and just love the piano
Goodness, this performance gave me goosebumps. You can really feel his pain and longing, such deep loneliness. I want to bake him cookies and cuddle him for ages.
This is such a beautiful song already yet this version is just so much more! Trent is an amazing musician.
At 60, been an addict for 48 of those. Never had the want to stop. Never will. I remember every heart I shattered and I still feel the millions of pieces of my own, scattered throughout the fabric of time, each and every piece. That is the terrible lie. The illusion of belonging. The lie of love. It's just hate turned inside out and rendered impotent. And one line is absolutely wrong. It's a faded fucking reminder of who I thought I'd be. The most powerful emotion that overrides everything else? The energy that created the universe. Soul crushing loneliness.
Thank you for your words, brother. Enjoy your day
Still watching/listening in 2021! My fav song of all time from NIN
Just reminds me of the natural born killers soundtrack. So lovely
Trent, Literally my FAVORITE song of yours!! It has hit me on the DEEPEST level since 25 years ago when It first broght me to tears...Thank you for the original and Thank you for this SIIICK rendition!! More like this 1 Please!! 💜🤘🏻
This song has haunted and consoled me since I was 13. 30 years later, I still love it!
Wow, this is good. My taste in clothing might have been questionable at 15, but apparently my taste in music was not. (I am taking a tour of my taste in music at 15. My last stop was Pearl Jam Evenflow, next is the Violent Femmes.)
I love the violent femms so much.
In English we did a project on music to get to know people....we had to pick one song from ur fav band and I picked this one....people thought I was gonna be the kid who would shoot up the school #noregrets
That's their lost for not understand the song
+1 more reason to not give a shit about people
Graphic Creator did you go to valley
more likey the the kid who talked the shooter out of shooting
Dave Duvalier you are Sooo right..the person that understands this would be the one to talk someone out of a horrific act! I'm in my 40s, a professional and I still get judged for loving this music. It is art from every aspect.also best concert in nyc 2017..so glad I grew up with the best music..I share with my child
"Something I Can Never Have"
I still recall the taste of your tears.
Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears.
My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore.
Scraping through my head 'till I don't want to sleep anymore.
You make this all go away.
You make this all go away.
I'm down to just one thing.
And I'm starting to scare myself.
You make this all go away.
You make this all go away.
I just want something.
I just want something I can never have
You always were the one to show me how
Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now.
This thing is slowly taking me apart.
Grey would be the color if I had a heart.
Come on tell me
In this place it seems like such a shame.
Though it all looks different now,
I know it's still the same
Everywhere I look you're all I see.
Just a fading fucking reminder of who I used to be.
Come on tell me
I just want something I can never have
Thanks lyrics boi
ITS to deep
Thank you
I lost my grandson last year on Mother's Daybefore he turned 18 he died of polycystic Kidney disease so heartbreaking but I had to play this beautiful song. He's with my son who died when he was 18 they are buried next to each other. This song means the world to me always been a Nine Inch Nails fan and now Atticus
I can’t stop listening to this song recently. It resonates with my life, currently.
Just a suggestion, John Moreland "You don't care for me enough to cry..."
Yep.
Starting to scare myself.
AMAZING!!..........Absolutely AMAZING!!!
30 years ago I spent so many nights drowning in this track!
Even now, it washes over me like a tsunami! Unbelievably powerful!
Thank you Trent for making the soundtrack to my life! 'Pretty Hate Machine'
Just Amazing!!
This song ripped Me apart in the 90s and still does today.
All the people in their 40s commenting. Wow, I'm in that crowd too. 40 years old...this album was stellar. The whole CD was a weird combo of sad and romantic.

Quarantined in 2020 and STILL listening to this.
