    Saw it, couldn't wait any longer. The part where she was composing on piano watched twice, very nice. And it's strangely satisfying to see "Many thanks to Trent Reznor". Lyrics were edited by Charlie Brooker.

    The video you posted is not the song heard most in the episode. There is a version with new lyrics.

    What a time to be alive. I don't really dig this BM version (though it's pretty funny), but the previous one postad was decent.

    Got a text from my friend (who knows i'm a big NIN nerd) who was having a nerd-gasum for me as she's a bit of a Milly fan and a mild NIN fan (she adores Leaving Hope)...i think she's going to want one of those shirts! Fuck i WANT one of those shirts!

    UPDATE : She's already getting it as soon as she's paid

    I really like that, as a NIN fan, I knew the "real" lyrics from the "fake" ones. Hearing "I'm On A Roll" at the beginning but then hearing her start to write the real version of "Right Where It Belongs," I was like, oh, I get it! Granted, you don't have to know NIN at all to understand the songs in the context of the episode, but I thought it was cool that knowing the lyrics helped put you in the know about what they were doing a little earlier than everyone else.

    also, can I just say, that I surprisingly thought the part where Miley is covering "Right Where it Belongs" at the piano was actually really good. That's my favorite moment on With Teeth, definitely the song I've listened to the most.

    Cute moment where they show the sheet music in her mind...

    I love that the musical part of her brain is Trent Reznor. It’s possibly one of my favorite tv stories ever. The entire episode seems like it was designed for me to like it. I’ve avoided the show because my husband and others have mentioned it’s “depressing” and I don’t need that shit rn. Reading that this episode is different from its counterparts is interesting. I thought I wouldn’t be able to understand everything since I had never watched before but it was like a mini movie.

    The parallels to reznor’s story and my own life were obvious from the get-go. A show I’ve never watched instantly felt familiar. As mentioned earlier in the thread, Reznor had serious issues with his own manager/label. Me and my sister’s teen years were marred by my mother’s death which was when I found nine inch nails and became a fangirl. I made my husband watch it so I could process it with him and he got what I was saying.

    They took art I already love and gave it new depth. No matter your opinions on Miley, Ashley O is a badass. She’s writing nin songs while in coma! The club scene at the end is perfect. She’s triumphant and our favorite anthem remains in tact. It really gave me the feels.

    Kind of reminds me of when Disney asked Devo for permission to do kid versions of their songs... Yes, this happened

    Nope, i just said i had to watch the episode...

    I watched the live version clip (the lyric video) and the Black Mirror end credits version, i thought that was all, turn out the episode has the "new lyrics".



    kind of funny and weird...

    Here's a bit of the re-worked/pop version of Right Where It Belongs for anyone that cares:

    Is anyone else feeling, “yeah all of these covers and riffs on NIN songs are fun and flattering but where is some actual public appreciation for NIN itself?!”

    Like, great that Cash covered hurt but the original is fantastic. Great that ghosts helps someone else get a number one hit. Cool that Miley does fun covers of HLA and RWIB but where is the love for ACTUAL Nine Inch Nails tracks?! Where is the recognition for how awesome the original versions are? Why are the suddenly more palatable and acceptable when someone else is singing them?

    Irks me. The world needs to RECOGNIZE.

    End rant.

    NIN is one of the biggest bands on the planet. I think they've got recognition.

    Eh, I think it's cool that NIN lives in the arena of being well known but still kind of underground. How many Lil Nas X, Billy Ray Cyrus, Marvel, Brie Larson, Black Mirror, and Miley Cyrus fans have looked up the respective NIN references on the internet this year to learn about a band they didn't really know anything about before? It's the same with Leonard Cohen and Jeff Buckley, where tons of people have heard of them, but most people couldn't name three of their songs. Hell, ask twenty random passersby to name one David Bowie song post 1983. Some artists are considered legends, but they're not overplayed or known by everyone, which allows the population of real fans to be something special. I would much rather Nine Inch Nails be two feet below the surface (sorry) of the common consciousness than have the overbearing presence of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Queen, U2, Michael Jackson, Madonna, etc. Nothing against any of those artists, but they've become something ever-present where everyone is familiar with them. I like going to a Nine Inch Nails show and being surround by thousands of people who feel like NIN is their own private thing. The fact that people like Charlie Brooker and David Fincher are part of that intimate club just makes it all the more cool.

    And bonus points that two years ago I sung Right where it belongs (over instrumental) on company party evening (finished second, heh) so maybe, just maybe somebody will remember me watching this...? (I'm leaving this job right now)

    Personally, I couldn't care less. Just makes it easier for me to buy tickets to the smaller shows.

    No!! And it’s her shitty aunt.

    Edit: I just watched that part. I didn’t get 1,000,000 from it. The drums sounded more like march of the pigs or gave up to me but I cranked it and can’t make out a song.

    How does it make it easier? Moar T-Shirt fans going and complaining on IG that they didn't play closer in Vegas.

    Less demand = more supply = easier purchasing abilities. Pretty simple concept.

    OOPS! It was her aunt, wasn’t it? I didn’t finish the episode before I posted that. And yeah, it’s hard for me to make it out the second time but I swore I heard the drums from 1,000,000 initially.
