"Find My Way" debuts on Zane Lowe (8.22.2013)

[LOVEANDZOMBIES]

According to several tweets in the last few minutes, "Find My Way" was played on BBC Radio today.

Randazzo Edit - http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0385ljg - link to the show. Skip to 43:40 to hear it.

[broevol]

If a tree fell in the woods...

[Aphelion]

If it was then the archived show will be online http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0385ljg shortly after Zane's show finishes in the next 30 mins. According to a BBC twitter feed it was played at around 40 mins into the today's show https://twitter.com/NowOnRadio1/status/370617375575773184

[LOVEANDZOMBIES]

If a tree fell in the woods...

Not exactly.. Confirmed: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/ It was played by Zane Lowe about 30 minutes ago. We need a rip!

[broevol]

I know....but no one heard it because no one listens to that show.

[Amaro]

Someone try to call Zane's station to request the song to be played again.

[goingincirclez]

Heh, nice... upon firing up the ol' Aerobarge this morning for my short commute, I put the Lolla rip of Find My Way on repeat, guess I'm clairvoyant WHY THE FUCK DID IT HAVE TO STOP THERE

[sheepdean]

Someone try to call Zane's station to request the song to be played again.
Yes, just call the second largest radio station in the country :P

[Digital Twilight]

Isn't his show available afterwards on the iplayer?

[chicken-royal]

Yeah, it should be on iPlayer quite soon. Not sure how long it takes for them to go up though.

[Leo_OAK]

Yes, just call the second largest radio station in the country :P
Real curiosity: what station is number one? I always thought they were the largest (I'm from there, obv)

[sheepdean]

Radio 2 is the largest, by a long shot

[The Reason Being]

Are there really more dads who listen to the radio in the UK than 14 year olds? Wow.

[Ryan]

PM me the mp3 please if this thread blows up shortly.

[binaryhermit]

Based on the live version, I happen to be seriously anticipating the studio version, if you know what I'm getting at.

[nineismine]

Life as a nin fan....

[nineismine]

Show is up

[nineismine]

Try 43 min 45 seconds in

[nineismine]

Can someone pm me a link when they rip it? (at work)

[anguilla]

Try 43 min 45 seconds in
Still not up for me...

[chicken-royal]

And a link to listen to the show: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0385ljg

[homphgomph]

Oh you can get a little preview towards the bottom of that link ^^^

[tony.parente]

Confirmed for studio version.
I repeat its the studio version of Find My Way.

EDIT: YOU DON'T WANT THIS VERSION.
Zane talks through the last 20 seconds like his asshole self.
Save yourself from the frustration.

[homphgomph]

Yeeeeeeah if a friend wants to PM a rip this way I'd very much appreciate it :)

[Q-NeilL]

PM link for me, too
thx

[ltrandazzo]

Guys. You know my tolerance for PM requests. Find the software to do it or wait for someone to offer it up. Let's discuss the song.

[tony.parente]

Not to ruin anyones hopes but Zane is a piece of shit that talked through the last 15-20 seconds of the track.

Ruined.
Not worth asking for a PM, wait for nin to put it up themselves.

[tiempo]

Easily my favorite so far from HM. Gorgeous song and production :) Congrats Trent and Atticus!

[Wretchedest]

I dug the live version of this track, so I'm looking forward to the studio cut.

[mfte]

nice to hear this in album quality.

really enjoying the little ambient, what sounds like, crowd sounds.

[digshake]

Was that distortion at the end of the track the lead in to All Time Low? If so, sounds promising.

Also, STFU Zane Lowe.

[echoespaul]

Didn't think this song could get better than the live version. It can. Can't wait for the high quality version. There are some amazing things going on in the background.

[hanakuso]

What a beautiful song.... OMG. I hope this get released among the other pre order tracks. In fact, I NEED IT NOW!!

[Ash512]

Ripping it... won't be long.

[nineismine]

Its awesome. I didn't notice all the LORD stuff in the live versions though...

[heisenberg]

Ripping it... won't be long.
joy. i need something to quench thy thirst

[binaryhermit]

I like it.

[homphgomph]

Definitely like it better than the live version, some cool little sounds happening in there.

[richardp]

Beautiful. Man, the reverb on his vocals truly make the track.

[RGM81]

Haunting atmosphere to this track. Love it. Excited for when it hits our nin.com account folders.

[gorast]

Did Zane hype this up at all before he played it? This seems like a pretty big thing for the entire community to miss.

[GoodSoldier333]

So this is technically Trent's SECOND bump-in with Fall Out Boy, of sorts. The first being that HTDA interview.

[nineismine]

Are the crowd noises possibly the Ghosts of who he used to be? Wasn't there a MOTP version with similar sounds?

[Amaro]

According to several tweets in the last few minutes, "Find My Way" was played on BBC Radio today.

Randazzo Edit - http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0385ljg - link to the show. Skip to 43:40 to hear it.

Great, I'm about to enjoy another fucking track... Except, I'm always lost when this Zane shit is in the picture. I don't know where to go in the link to skip to 43:40. Maybe I'm not the only one...

[dvdglss]

That's an awesome song. I've enjoyed everyone of them so far. I love the gospel background.

[anguilla]

To me it's a bit as NIN by numbers.
Still nice, if a bit predictable in its progression.

edit: on second thought, forget it, the song is just nice. bit of a wanker me is.

[Leo_OAK]

Fuck me, this shit is beautiful.

[gorast]

Great, I'm about to enjoy another fucking track... Except, I'm always lost when this Zane shit is in the picture. I don't know where to go in the link to skip to 43:40. Maybe I'm not the only one...

Click the button next to Zane's face and wait for the bar to load in that frame, and then drag it until you get to around 43:21.

[Jebus]

Did Zane hype this up at all before he played it? This seems like a pretty big thing for the entire community to miss.

He had kind words to say about NIN as the song was finishing.

As for myself...loved the live version. Love the studio version as well. So far my favorite song from this album. Love the mood. Love all the parts.

It's strange how those simple four descending notes grabs me so much.

[toomanyrifts]

woaaaaaaaaa

yeah that's all i can think of to say.

I hear:

"I pray they'll loan a soul to take"

not lord...

[butter_hole]

so, he says Hesitation Marks is his album of the week? Does that mean more tracks are coming?

[heisenberg]

any rips yet?

[Leo_OAK]

so, he says Hesitation Marks is his album of the week? Does that mean more tracks are coming?
I heard that too. And there's an Album of the Week title above the "find my way"preview below the player

[butter_hole]

Also he talks over the end of the so song SO PEOPLE DONT RIP IT AND SPREAD IT AROUND, duh.

[Ash512]

... (PM me).

[Q-NeilL]

i have rip.

[Aphelion]

so, he says Hesitation Marks is his album of the week? Does that mean more tracks are coming?

Nope, thought went through my head too. He does one track of album of the week per day. Mon: Everything, Tues: Copy of a, Wed: Came Back Haunted, Thurs: Find My Way, Friday: no show

[Amaro]

Yep. Zane is a piece of shit. You don't do that on a song debut...you little piece of working shit.

Song is amazing. As hoped for. I'm floored. A lot of great textures you couldn't hear live...absolutely grade A. Fuck the world over.

[nineismine]

i have rip.

i dont :( ++++

[chicken-royal]

The live version has grown on me, but the studio version sounds even better. Can't wait to get it in full album quality.

[fortheloveofgod]

TR should leak the whole album with Zane talking over all the songs. That would be great. Waiting for a better rip. Loved it live so far.

[Shadaloo]

I will not weep at work. I just won't.

[Leo_OAK]

Atticus: people don't get, T. HTDA is all about subtlety, while NIN is all loud. The projects are totally different.

Trent: They sure are.

A: So, with that in mind, we could move that "Find My Way" track into Welcome Oblivion, right?

T: Not that one, Atticus. Not. That. One.

[Amaro]

Also he talks over the end of the so song SO PEOPLE DONT RIP IT AND SPREAD IT AROUND, duh.

Well, he did his schpeel two different times...I think the beginning was enough.

[butter_hole]

Yep. Zane is a piece of shit. You don't do that on a song debut...you little piece of working shit.
ugh get over yourself you loser

[The Reason Being]

Holy flerking shnit. Beautiful.

Also, someone on here pointed out that the live version may or may not feature a sample from The Downward Spiral. I can definitely hear that sound in the studio version (It pans from left to right ear each time you hear it). It does sound like that same sound from TDS. Thoughts?

[Leo_OAK]

About people calling ZL a piece of shit: let's cut him some slack, guys. Two reasons:

1- He does promote and preview stuff that no other major show in the world would. There's a reason why he has previewed tracks by the likes of NIN, Garbage, QOTSA and many others.

2- Find My Way is a 5+ minutes song. As a former radio journalist myself, I must say that you can get a lot of shit for playing stuff that is more than 4m30s longer. He spoke only what was necessary to promote the album and the track given the time he had. And the promotional stuff he said was probably demanded by Columbia or NIN's PR team.

[Amaro]

ugh get over yourself you loser

Refer to my other reply to you. Don't try to hurt my feelings.

I guess that's just RADIO though!

[Butterscotch]

I am in love with this song. Close tie between this and Copy Of A for my favorite so far.

[[parasite]]

i'm gonna wait till album release, or full album leak

[ImTheWiseJanitor]

Those voices harmonizing definitely remind me of the sirens in Ghost 1. Lovin' it!

I was starting to roll my eyes at the demand for the album leak, but damn...I'm feeling the itch now.

[LOVEANDZOMBIES]

Does the Radio 1 site have some sort of protection in effect? When I tried to rip it with Cubase it sounds echoey and distorted. Never had that problem before so I'm wondering if it's something on their side.

[broevol]

Some songs you hear are just instant NIN...o so comfortable and warm.....

[Digital Twilight]

Are people really complaining about a radio DJ talking over the end of a song?

[Butterscotch]

Are people really complaining about a radio DJ talking over the end of a song?

Probably because they can't rip a "pure" version because he was talking.

I waited this long for the album to drop, I can wait 12 more days to get this song in my library.

Fair enough...plausible and probable. *sigh* Heat of the moment, you should know.

[binaryhermit]

Yes? It is kinda annoying.

[sheepdean]

Yes, they're very strict on it. If you watch TV without a license, you can get a fine of up to £2k and criminal charges, BBC likes people to stick to the guidelines so have all kinds of protection measures

[broevol]

Are people really complaining about a radio DJ talking over the end of a song?

You all are spoiled now days. When I was your age I had to record music off the radio with a cassette tape and it ALWAYS had a stupid DJ talking over it. Just call it RETRO and move on...

[ImTheWiseJanitor]

Are people really complaining about a radio DJ talking over the end of a song?

He's just doing his job, but fuck him, right?

And never mind the fact that we've had perfectly acceptable live versions of this song already, well ahead of the album release, let alone this individual track "debut." Don't get me wrong, it's beautiful. Probably my favorite ambient/quiet track to come from TR in years. But we've had the song for a couple weeks, and we have less than a couple more weeks until the album release, AND a leak that's likely coming a week-ish ahead of THAT. Can't we just be thankful for what we've got and...I dunno....Cool our jets a little?

[Digital Twilight]

Welcome to the world of radio where a DJ talks over the end of every song they ever play. You may as well be angry that the sky is blue.

[Thor]

This are my favorite kind of NIN songs, so fragile and beautiful.

[Digital Twilight]

Song sounds really great. I haven't been disappointed with anything I have heard so far.

[paul_guyet]

Those chants right before "You were never meant to see" are just chilling.

[nineismine]

Wow this thread turned to crap over nothing pretty quickly... Good job guys. Can we talk about the song now?

[JessicaSarahS]

I love this song so much. It's perfect.

[echoespaul]

About people calling ZL a piece of shit: let's cut him some slack, guys. Two reasons:


Points well made. Also worth remembering he's had Trent on the show four or so times now at various points in his recent career. And if it allows new ears to hear the music, that's great.

[paul_guyet]

Anyone think this sounds a bit Depeche Mode? Not in a bad way. Mainly the singing and piano in the chorus.

[Q-NeilL]

It's pretty beautiful song. I even forgot that track was a bit like htda.

[thefragile_jake]

Guys. You know my tolerance for PM requests. Find the software to do it or wait for someone to offer it up. Let's discuss the song.

EDIT:

Crap. I didn't know the policy in regards to requests like that. My bad.

[ryanmcfly]

This. is. amazing.

[m3chanical]

Eargasms caused by mass aural pleasure.. I'm afraid to listen with headphones in until the album comes out.. Like watching a horror movie when I was a kid whilst simultaneously hiding behind the sofa

[gorast]

I think this is the only track so far that I'm not crazy about. Maybe it's Trent's vocal delivery, but it feels weaker than the live versions we've got. I'm personally in no hurry to have it drop into my nin.com account.

[anguilla]

Anyone think this sounds a bit Depeche Mode? Not in a bad way. Mainly the singing and piano in the chorus.

Dead on. Something from ULTRA...

[ninsp]

What a sparse and fantastic song. It's just haunting.

The live version was meh but I really like this.

[chroipahtz]

Anyone think this sounds a bit Depeche Mode? Not in a bad way. Mainly the singing and piano in the chorus.
Yep. Also just the general tone, the percussion, and the effects in the breakdown at the end really remind me of Ultra (maybe the song Home, or was it Freestate?)

[thefragile_jake]

Man, that haunting chanting that's going on in the background during the verses is great. I am really digging this.

[Mark Fraser]

Now this is what I am fucking talking about!!!1111

[carpenoctem]

Zane's show won't load - every time I drag the bar to the 40 minute mark it restarts. So I'm listening to the first 40 minutes - actually listening. It is 1995.

There is a band called "Cerebral Ballsy." I don't know what to make of it. Apparently their second album is infinitely different from their first and it would be a real travesty if they ever repeated themselves. Cerebral Ballsy - raising the bar for us all.

[goingincirclez]

O_O ohhh yesss.

I daresay Everything is forgiven? Maybe?

[Butterscotch]

Now this is what I am fucking talking about!!!1111

I think Mark broke his shift key. :p

Agreed re:vocals.. Their beautiful but he's done better.. It's more the layers winning me over

[thefragile_jake]

Like everyone has been saying, I am getting a pretty big Depeche Mode vibe from this one...but with a hint of Even Deeper in there as well. All in all, a great track. It's interesting now knowing that this song follows Came Back Haunted....it makes finally hearing All Time Low even more interesting.

[Hitman2110]

O_O ohhh yesss.

I daresay Everything is forgiven? Maybe?

Find My Way is definitely a lot closer to the NIN we know and love. I don't hate Everything, but it is different. Find My Way almost reminds me of The Downward Spiral, The Fragile, With Teeth, and Year Zero thrown in a blender.

[billpulsipher]

when the fuck did zane lowe become the official NIN spokesperson? the guy is an utter tool....in other news, the song is sick

[richardp]

Fuck him for promoting the album, right? Who the fuck else is supposed to promote it? Kevin & Bean? Lazlo & Affentra?

[Butterscotch]

when the fuck did zane lowe become the official NIN spokesperson? the guy is an utter tool....in other news, the song is sick

I don't care if it's a drunk monkey pushing random buttons to try to find the one that gives him a banana, someone played the song, and that's what matters.

You are 100% right about this, but wow, I can't believe people in here are so impatient and reactive that we have to apologize for Zane Lowe, A DJ, talking over a track ON THE RADIO. Really?

[gorast]

when the fuck did zane lowe become the official NIN spokesperson? the guy is an utter tool....in other news, the song is sick

Dude's been doing this for years now, hasn't he? I'm speaking in the context of promoting Trent's shit. He's good at hyping Trent up, and that's really all that matters.

I've never understood all the hate for the dude. So he talked over the debut of the song - it is literally the same as the live version, but with less emphatic vocals and more audible layering at the end. We'll all be hearing it in less than a week anyway, officially or unofficially. No big deal. Not to mention talking over music is just what DJs have done since the beginning of radio, new songs or not.

[Butterscotch]

I still think TR should go on Howard Stern..Stern has always said nice things about NIN and the music interviews he has done the past year are WAY more in depth and intelligent than the Stern of years ago

Howard Stern pisses me off.

No particular reason, that guy just rubs me the wrong way.

[Butterscotch]

Well if the monkey is drunk thats a plus...

Curious George and the Banana-Flavored Schnapps.

[ComradeCornhole]

Is it just me or are the layered synths a little... up front? I'm not sure I like how they seem to bully out the percussion and piano, especially toward the end. That said, this song has yet to really grab me. It's not a skipper, or anything, but I'm not trolling when I say that I had a stronger, more visceral reaction to Everything.

[Bachy]

I'd love a PM if anyone has an audio rip.

[richardp]

I still think TR should go on Howard Stern..Stern has always said nice things about NIN and the music interviews he has done the past year are WAY more in depth and intelligent than the Stern of years ago............and Zane is a bit of an asskisser..he had Morrissey on once and I am shocked he didn't start jerking off in front of Moz

....Stern? Really?!

[halo33]

I stand by my claim of it being reminiscent of Massive Attack.
I love Massive Attack.

I love this song.

[BRoswell]

Love it. It's almost the anti-Heresy. He can't even curse God anymore for what's happened to him.

EDIT: Also, am I imagining things, or is Mariqueen on this track?

[InvitingmeAway]

I love it!! Really nice vibe. I liked it live, I love it even more now!

I think the studio and live versions are very similar and quite complimentary. Great song.

Yes she is

[Ryan]

Amazing!!!!

[dlb]

Loved the live version, also loving the studio version! Damn great track! :)

I think it's cool how well the songs we've heard so far translate into a live setting. They are pretty much just like the album version! Cool thing since we got to hear these live first so HM will not dissapoint in that aspect! Thanks Trent and the gang!

And c'mon guys, how great is it right now to be a fan of the best band in the world? Stunning is what I say! :)

[HurtinMinorKey]

Thanks for ruining the end of the song for your fucking promotion of FALLOUT BOY, you fucking moron.

Someone explain to me why we went through the trouble of bailing England out of two big ones last century?

[ImTheWiseJanitor]

I went down to the pool for a bit earlier, realized that I'd played the song 3 times before I got back in the water, haha. It's one of those songs that resonates really well with being in water, but maybe that's just the swimmer in me. I imagine it'll keep getting replayed off and on all evening.

[Krazy]

Thanks for ruining the end of the song for your fucking promotion of FALLOUT BOY, you fucking moron.

[OSLIN]

Had to get the taste of Everything out of our collective mouths ;)

[Shadaloo]

And Bauhaus. Fuck yeah Bauhaus.

Anyway, less pointless DJ rambling, more song focus.


Love it. It's almost the anti-Heresy. He can't even curse God anymore for what's happened to him.

Too fucking right. I'm slowly absorbing all the parallels to the themes in TDS in what I've heard so far, and here we have almost supplication rather than rejection. Whoever said "I Would For You" and "In Two" might focus instead on finding comfort in love and family life as opposed to trying and failing in the embrace of a a whorish she-Reptile figure may have been dead on the money.

Maybe I'm overanalyzing, but I may never be able to listen to TDS the same way after this album drops.

[gorast]

i haven't listened to it yet, WTF happened?

Someone's just butthurt because they don't understand how radio works.

[ImTheWiseJanitor]

Maybe I'm overanalyzing, but I may never be able to listen to TDS the same way after this album drops.

This. A hundred times this. It's just a gut feeling, but it really feels like we'll be seeing a sort of revisiting/confrontation/acceptance in regards to the themes conveyed in TDS. Even if it's completely not that, I think I already have so many of those little perceptions in my mind that they'll probably stick to me anyway. These are exciting times!

[Digital Twilight]

If you don't have a decent pair of headphones you could be forgiven for thinking there isn't much difference between the studio and liver version but there is a lot more lurking in the background on the studio. Trent says that the album has a sparse style but all the tracks I've heard so far are really dense and multi layered I'm finding new things with each listen.

[Fist Fuck]

If he didn't talk over the song, what do you think would happen? People would have a perfect radio rip, spread it and then who's gonna actually buy the song? Just saying.

Amazing track. Probably one of the best songs since Still. It's one of those outros where you hope they never end and when they do you just want to hear it again (like TDTWWA live).

[broevol]

England gave us The Cure, Depeche Mode and The Smiths....I have nothing but love for England

When I discovered that there were backing vocals on the Outside Lands festival, that is exactly what I imagined about the studio version. She hasn't been mentioned yet as a guest contributor (maybe an implied one?) but I bet you're right

[Mark Fraser]

Does anyone have any interpretations of the lyrics?

On my first, second and third lesson only one thought popped up in my head - Josh Wink. I think that this is a song about how Trent has constantly been trying to Find His Way in the music industry and how he has never been able to live up to his goal. What is his goal you ask? Simple, to become 1/10 the musician that Josh Wink is. Every time he tries to do so, he fails - but he gets up and keeps on trying.

What do you all think?

Post of the day, for me.

[Shadaloo]

Holy flerking shnit. Beautiful.

Also, someone on here pointed out that the live version may or may not feature a sample from The Downward Spiral. I can definitely hear that sound in the studio version (It pans from left to right ear each time you hear it). It does sound like that same sound from TDS. Thoughts?

Absolutely. It's much clearer than on TDS, and it gets very prominent as the song goes on.

Seriously peoples. Listen to this with a good set of headphones.

[Ryan]

I want to make love to this song. Not while listening to it, but actually stick my dick inside the song itself.

Need to refrain from listening to this one....

[all3n_y]

The song sounds great! I hope the album leaks tonight. I really need to get a good pair of headphones. I know its been discussed before, but what are the best reasonably priced ones (around $100) that I could get?

[Paul]

The big surprise here is that's not just Zane's banter, that is actually on the track! ;-)
(j/k other than it being his style in general, he's just watermarking the track, since it is his exclusive)

As for the song itself:

1. I think it's just lovely
2. So glad to hear that my favorite parts of the live renditions are intact and actually enhanced in this studio version (+MMR!)
3. I was totally right that he's saying "oh dear lord, hear my prayer" - and even though I was expecting this, I was surprised with how clearly it is stated here (as opposed to how it was buried/whispered in the live versions)

[Tomp252]

Best sub-$100 option.

[binaryhermit]

Not that Bose is terrible, but for the price you can do better. Back in the day, the Triports ($149) had approximately equal sound quality to the Sennheiser HD201 ($25 at the most). I'd suggest looking at headfi.org for better answers on what's good at $100 these days. And I'm sorry about your wallet.

You know what Bose stands for, right?

Buy other sound equipment.

For $100, the Sony 7506 or Sennheiser 280Pro are unbeatable.

Get the Sennheiser HD 280s.
Not only do they sound great, they do a excellent job of blocking out noise.
If background noise isn't really an issue for you (maybe these are for your quiet listening place?) then AudioTechnica has some comparable ones. The 580 or 850 or something. I think they actually sound better than the Sennies, but they don't do nearly as much to block out noise.

Or maybe we're two weeks away from the album's release and they're trying to promote the hell out of it. Hmm, which seems more likely?

[ensanchecedor]

First time i heard this song i thought it was an outtake of welcome oblivion, and now i think it sounds so htda-esque it could have been in that album. Anyway, to me this is one of the best songs in the nin catalog since the fragile days, I'm so in love with this song.

[fuckit]

At the very end of find my way, does anyone else hear a similar sound to the sound in "we fade away" before mariqueen sings "am i just talking to myself"?

I'm kind of surprised that this hasn't dropped into the preorder bundles on nin.com yet. I guess they figure since we're so close to the release date, we can handle not having one of the songs.

I think this one was an exclusive for the BBC and to distract from all of the negativity on "Everything". I don't expect this in the preorder bundle until the rest of the album drops.

[Bachy]

I might be going crazy, but I think I'm hearing backing effects in the first few minutes (0:37, 1:53, 2:06) that really resemble the effects heard in the final 20 seconds or so of "Closer."

[Frozen Beach]

I'm sorry, but all you guys whining about Zane talking during the intro and fade of the song are acting completely stupid. It's radio. That's what DJs do, and it's not like he specifically is the only one that does it.

[nobies]

You know, I didn't really care much for the live version....but this studio version is totally doin' it for me.

[thevoid99]

I'm listening to the studio version right now. Man, it's the production that is winning me over. I love it.

[Trunkjob]

I love this song. It's like a cross between HTDA and Still. Best track from the album so far.

[HurtinMinorKey]

I'm sorry, but all you guys whining about Zane talking during the intro and fade of the song are acting completely stupid. It's radio. That's what DJs do, and it's not like he specifically is the only one that does it.

Um, if you are going to premiere a song, have some respect.

Talking like an idiot during each song is not a prerequisite of being a DJ. Talking like an idiot maybe, but not during the world premiere of a song. And fuck everyone who thinks it's justified as being a watermark to protect sales. If that's what TR was really thinking then have some integrity and don't release the song until people can buy it.

[ltrandazzo]

Um, if you are going to premiere a song, have some respect.

If you're going to sell a record, promote it in a way that's going to make people still want to buy it.

[ManBurning]

I contemplated not listening to this one and waiting... But considering I've already heard it live a million times, it was justifyable.
Immediately put the live version on right after...

The studio one is definatly the better of the two, which is funny as I feel the opposite towards Copy Of A, live is better.

This song is definatly growing on me. Absolutly HATED it when I first heard it live at Lollapalooza. Thought it was the most boring thing in the world, but after multiple listened over the last month, it always gets better.

I read an interview where he said during the recording of the album it almost felt like these were demo versions of an unfinished product because they were so damn minimal, so they er-recorded everything with actual instruments instead only to scrap it all and say "yeah, the direction we originally took was right" I can definatly see what he means by this comment. This and Copy Of A almost seem like they sould belong on a "demos and remixes" CD. The vocals in particular seem quite weak, very echoy, like they aren't mixed properly...

Maybe it will be different on the CD.But the vocals seem very faint in this and Copy of A.

[raltenbach]

Wow. The live versions I've heard so far really do not do his song justice. I want to do nasty things to this track. So lush, and that's just from a radio rip. This is one I'll really look forward to hearing when I give the new album the whole "dark room/headphone" treatment. Haven't been this jazzed up about a new release in years, and every new track makes me all the more excited. Damn this song is the sexy.

[Matthias Plunkett]

Did anyone notice the inclusion of the opening noise/drone from the track The Downward Spiral? It's in there. Great track.

[Yoshata]

^^ Nope...gotta listen for that next time!

What a beautiful song. It's so heartfelt...a complete reversal of the desolation and hopelessness expressed on The Downward Spiral. This truly is from the other side of that, and it's amazing.

[raltenbach]

Just posted something to that effect in the HS thread. I'm beginning to wonder if this album was recorded using the TDS sound library. A lot of it does sound eerily familiar.

[simonn]

Dead on. Something from ULTRA...

Holding off from listening to this as I know it's gonna be awesome (love the live version, in particular the background vocals) but will wait for the grand unveiling on 2/9....in the meantime, have downloaded Ultra and will be listening to that on the way to work today - Home sounds terrific though. How have I never heard this album before....?!

[Furie_Zacharias]

Man, that bridge/outro is full of awesome!

Hey could someone please pm me a link? Dying to hear it, thanks in advance!

The question I would ask is have you heard the better Depeche Mode albums? Have you listened to Violator or Music for the Masses?

I don't mean to be antagonistic in any way, but if this is the first time you've been exposed to depeche mode, listen to Violator.

This track might be my favorite form HM so far...I am really deep into this track.

[Emil Dorbell]

I wasn't expecting this track to be this good. I love all the little sound effects that you couldn't really make out before. For all the talk about HM being minimal there's sure a lot of meat to some of these tracks.

[laz001]

Thanks for ruining the end of the song for your fucking promotion of FALLOUT BOY, you fucking moron.

Someone explain to me why we went through the trouble of bailing England out of two big ones last century?


Well done dumbass, Zane is from down-under, not the UK. Pretty obvious if you listen to his accent. Except if you're a pigheaded yank.

[Scarlet Siren]

I think this may be my favourite of the tracks heard so far, interesting since I generally don't gravitate towards the 'quiet' songs.

Beautiful, haunting and warm and comforting at the same time. This resonated with me, it stirred all kind of emotions and memories - something that didn't happen with the live version (which was actually one of my favourite parts of the show).

Just stunning.

Can anyone imagine this being used in a movie?

[Scarlet Siren]

Just one more thing, I thought it was common for radio presenters to talk over the intro/outro of songs, why are someone you acting like this is the worst thing ever? Or have forgotten radio works...or perhaps never listened to the radio in your life?

Odd...

Violator i've heard a few times. but only causally in a 'it's one of 1500 songs on my mp3 player' kind of way, so haven't really absorbed it. Really do need to sit down and give it a proper listen! Obviously I know the singles from it though. I was in at the beginning with them, but quickly tired of them as I discovered heavier stuff. Tastes are mellowing though again as I get older!

[Steve to the E]

Don't know if anyone's mentioned this already, but something about this song screams Bat for Lashes, especially her most recent album "The Haunted Man." I think it's the combo of drum-machines, ambient distant droning, and quiet piano. Really, it's more likely she was influenced by NIN, but the parallel is definitely there.

[chroipahtz]

If you like Ultra, give Playing the Angel a listen.

Hell, I'd suggest giving everything after and including Music for the Masses a listen. Some of it is kind of hit or miss, but that's when they started coming into their own. Like NIN, each of their albums is a bit different.

[mfte]

Anyone else getting The Great Collapse vibe from this tune?

[GFGohmann]

Wow, this a great track. Love the subtle noise that lingers throughout the entire song. So excited for the album!!

[Paul]

Does anyone know what he says at about 2:45? To me it sounds like "Please, I never meant to ____ " ??


Lord my path has gone astray
I'm just trying to find my way
Wandered here from far away
I'm just trying to find my way

You were never meant to see
All those things inside of me
Now that you have gone away
I'm just trying to find my way

Oh

I have made a great mistake
I pray the lord my soul to take
Ghosts of who I used to be
I can feel them come for me
Looks as though they're here to stay
I'm just trying to find my way

Oh

[???]

I have been to every place
I have been to everywhere
I'm just trying to find my way
Oh dear lord, hear my prayer

[HurtinMinorKey]

If you're going to sell a record, promote it in a way that's going to make people still want to buy it.

As if this will make any difference. By the time people can actually buy it, there will be complete un-dokneyified versions available free to download. In other words, people who wanted to avoid paying for it now, will still avoid paying for it when the songs are out officially.

Another textbook example of marketing "genius".

[ryanmcfly]

Does he say "Lord my path has gone astray" in the first verse?

This might come as a shock to you, but Zane Lowe is running a business, not a charitable organization (well, for all I know he might be running one of those too, but that's not the topic here). What would be the point of negotiating an exclusive if he doesn't get to use it to promote himself? And he's not stupid. He knows damn well that this will be ripped and put online and if he doesn't talk over any of it, nobody will know who got the exclusive which makes getting the exclusive pointless. Talking like an idiot is not a prerequisite for being on the internet either.

Everything wasn't an exclusive, so to speak, because the studio version was thrown out into the wild an hour later when it was dropped into our nin.com accounts. FMW, on the other hand, so far has been exclusive to that one airing of it.

He's a hyper guy, but he actually conducts pretty good interviews and tends to actually know what he's talking about most of the time. He does some research.

Totally agree with your post here, especially the top part. I do find Zane a little annoying but he does a great job in promoting bands and he does have a genuine love for a lot of the bands he promotes. I'll say it again, getting angry about a DJ that talks over a part of a song is like getting angry that the sky is blue. It's radio, it's what they do.

oh, he can totally be annoying. but so can my wife and almost all of my friends. (this isn't to say I love Zane, but I don't mind him now and then.)

but, you're right -- he does a great job of promoting bands, and moreover, he seems genuinely passionate about music, and that comes through. I appreciate that.

[Amaro]

FMW>ZL

Despite his attempts.

[laz001]

Totally agree with this 100%. Zane is a GREAT promoter of new music, there's no one else in the UK who does this.
Again, I refuse to spoil the album, so I've not listened, but an article says he spoke over the last 15 seconds. Of a 4min+ track!
Fucking wah wah wah. Grow a pair a just wait until you have the album.

Its the same whining as everyone saying 'PM me a link' for the previous tracks. Why don't you just buy the track from iTunes/amazon or better, buy the album from nin.com instead of being bitches and begging for a freebie.

it really annoyed me to see so many fair weather fans come out begging for tracks so they could avoid paying (supporting nin), just as it annoys me to see so many people bitching about Zane! He's the only DJ who's played ANY nin here in the uk, atkeast appreciate that.

None of the DJ's where I live do that, I honestly thought that fad died off in the late 80s/early 90s because they realized how annoying it was.

EDIT: They DO skip the intros of most tracks, or will talk up until the lyrics start though - but never, ever, ever on a premier or the first playing of a notable track.

[HurtinMinorKey]

I've rarely heard premieres where the song was talked over, especially not cutting off the end.

Seems to work for the artist, this was the 4th? or so time he has appeared on Zane's show and theres usually a new song played at some point each time.

I've rarely heard premieres where the song was talked over, especially not cutting off the end.

It's amateur hour. But keep slobbing this guys knob if it makes you happy.
Wait it was cut off? It sounded like it was going to segue into the next song, like closer into ruiner

It COULD have been a segue but I couldn't tell over mr monty pythons yammering.

But yeah, I'm willing to bet the "outro" you can make out is a part of the soundscape from this track to All Time Low.

It wasn't cut off. The fuji version ends similarly with the drone at the end. But you could say it was cut off when Zane started yapping away again.

Zane Lowe can be a little annoying it's true but his show is pretty solid. When you compare it with most radio programs around the world, it's definitely among the better ones. Jian Ghomeshi's interview with Trent on Q a few months ago was top notch in my opinion.

But going back to the song, it's just great. I've been listening to this in loop for a couple of weeks now and the studio version is even better! I'm surprised at the lyrics though. They seem more "Fragile"-like than "Happy guy" with wife and kids. I'm getting more and more curious about the album. Can't wait for it. It's going to be a very eclectic piece.

Goosebumps; thank you Nine Inch Nails!

[Digital Twilight]

I think this is my favourite so far. I cannot stop listening to this.

As with every song released so far, this one sounds even better with headphones. I went on a hike today and never noticed the little underlying bass notes during the second verse.

GAH! I'm so impressed with everything released so far!!

[Fist Fuck]

Everything was never trending and Zane played that too.

The song is trending because it's good, if Zane didn't premere it I have no doubt someone else would and it would still be trending.

Because you know, it's totally surprising that #EVERYTHING wasn't trending, right?

Zane did a decent job with promoting NIN, say whatever you want. Yes, he talked over it, so we couldn't have a perfect radio rip of the song instead of actually buying it, big fucking deal. Yes, he's hyper. I don't like hyper people. However, if you're gonna have someone work on the radio I think he shouldn't sound like a sleeping pill either.

...whyyy care about the Zane guy talking over a radio edit? If it was on the album, then it would be reasonable to bitch about it. o_0

[ChasingTheGhost]

Copy of A and this is my favorite so far.

Great work.

Am I the only one who hears Somewhat Damaged when listening to this???

Yes you are. It hasn't been mentioned on this forum even once.

[Wolfkiller]

The vocal delivery sounds a lot alike I think. *shrug*

[HurtinMinorKey]

Wow, 5+ minutes of listening to Trent moan on stage. And the lyrics are by far the worst yet. The only thing at all redeeming is the texturing done by Atticus.

Look up 'sarcasm' next time you pack a dictionary.

[BRoswell]

That's What I Get. Just saying.

[echoespaul]

Am I the only one who hears a female vocal in this song?

[HurtinMinorKey]

That's What I Get. Just saying.

I meant off the album, but i'd agree that that might be the worst.
