Wow. I don't even know what to say about this video....

The artist who produced this is Andrea Giacobbe (www.andreagiacobbe.net)

This was played on the big screen (like the video for 'Hurt') during the 'With Teeth' tour.

1. I'd start with brilliant,

disturbing, beautiful, disgusting. NIN is one of the best groups to come out of the US since Nirvana. Nothing about them is easily defined. They often cloak you in comfort while making you incredibly uncomfortable at the same time, and this video seems a good example of that.
I think they are the musical equivalent of Thomas Pynchon. And they're Cleveland boys.

2. Exactly what I thought

"disturbing, beautiful, disgusting". Beautiful music, saddening lyrics and images. Powerful stuff.

3. Brilliant! Who's got the lyrics?

anybody?

4. here

See the animal in it's cage that you built
Are you sure what side you're on
Better not look him too closely in the eye
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on
See the safety of the life you have built
Everything where it belongs
Feel the hollowness inside of your heart
And it's all
Right where it belongs


What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you wanted to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afraid to see?

What if all the world's inside of your heart
Just creations of your own
Your devils and your gods
All the living and the dead
And you really are alone
You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the words
Are you hiding in the dreams?
