I got so fucking sick to death of that song after the 17,000th request. Even the one Static-X remix I have got old as hell and I would do almost anything to avoid it, unless the girl was going to flip out on me and run crying to the manager.
Worst of all, the girls who say (When you ask them what music they like) 'NIN, Marilyn Manson, Tool, etc'. Then you play them ANY other song by NIN and they are screaming from stage 'WTF is this shit??!! I wanted NIN!!!'


But I digress. As a wedding song, right out there, but who am I to judge, and traditional wedding bullshit makes me want to hurl anyway.
However, according to people I've talked to, the song isn't really about animalistic sex, but about his feelings about religion? Not sure about that but I've had more than one actual real NIN fan who knows the music other than the one fucking song (pun intended ha ha) insist it was the case.
But after a few years doing whatever I could to avoid it, the crushing boredom it used to elicit has eased, I played the Static-X version last night and it was fine...
