Is the "Paul Anka – (You're) Having My Baby" Trent trolling us?

Elliott Smith has an unreleased song with a lyric dissing Reznor.
My inner teenager is so confused, watching his parents fight like this.
The lyrics criticize boozed-up bar patrons' superficial friendliness at a dive where apparently nine inch nails is finishing up 'Head Like A Hole.'
Why the problem? Indie cred?
Maybe Smith & Reznor shared a dealer and it got weird.
"We're All Friends Now,"
I wonder why they've only played The Line Begins To Blur once during the festival/Tension shows?
probably they rehearsed it, wanted to check it out live, but when Tension started, TR might just think it didn't fit the set. in Buzzfeed interview he said that this tour was about deep groove stuff, next tour legs might be harder and maybe TLBTB will make a comeback (hopefully)
Odd thought of the day...I've just read about Neal Schon from Journey and his pay per view wedding. Dismissed it as a horrendous idea and an insult to the sanctity of marriage, blah blah blah.
Then I thought - what if Trent and Mariqueen had done the same thing? (No way they would, obviously!). Would I have paid $15 to see it? I think the answer would have been a slightly hypocritical 'undoubtedly'...! Shame on me and my fanboydom.
It's not exactly Elliott's best work. I can see why it remained unreleased during his lifetime. I've always felt he was hit and miss through most of his career, and while it may not be popular opinion, I think he was really just hitting his stride with the songs that became "From a Basement on a Hill." It still saddens me that we didn't get to see what he was really capable of. That goes quadruple for Jeff Buckley.
I concur that it's really a sketch of a song.
Buzz Osborne of the Melvins recalls the last time he liked music enjoyed by a mass audience. It's 'The Downward Spiral:'

I love everyone's reaction faces in the new Vevo video. Especially during the end... hilarious.
I just got me the Now Im Nothing and Eraser shirts off nin.com. I love how when you get older and birthdays mean shit, you still buy yourself gifts.
Anyone else think these Vevo videos bode well for a big behind the scenes feature on the (oh please oh please) DVD/Blu-ray?
Last night when I was falling asleep, I had a vision of a deluxe boxed set with discs devoted to the festivals, Tension and the 2014 leg(s). Plus extras like Jimmy Kimmel and ACL. Maybe even a coffee table book of Rob's photos, mmmm.
I'm hoping that Trent will release multitracks from HM. I wish there was another "remix the whole damn thing" disc/torrent/something like the ones we got for YZ, Slip and Ghosts, but I don't see it happening in the near future.
I hope he drops it into more shows when he gets to Oz. It's one of the few songs on WT I actually enjoy. If it weren't for Right Where It Belongs, The Line Begins to Blue, Home and With Teeth I'd listen to that album way less than I do now. Those four songs make that album for me.
Damn it, Trent! Take all my fucking money why don't you!
Yes, this is very random.
Now that Halloween and Thanksgiving have come and gone yet again, I was just reminded that the colors for The Downward Spiral's artwork certainly have just the right colors for both days. I could probably say the same about Broken's artwork, and I can also see how the colors on The Fragile's artwork can also give me a bit of a Christmas vibe as well.
I don't know if this is supposed to be funny but I laughed the entire time.
With Teeth is extremely underrated among NIN fans.
I think it's strange Charles Fleischer is a NIN fan. Not that I can't imagine him being into the band, but the fact his celebrity status gets him (and I assume his lady friend) backstage passes.
That's my random NIN thought while I wait for the fucking Japanese tour date announcement.
When "Gave Up" is played live, do those red + blue lights always feature during the song to represent the colors of "Broken" and "Fixed"?
That's the impression I've always had.
Actually looking at the cover, a case could totally be made for red. There are like red and orange flames (its been forever since I actually studied the cover of Broken) I like that idea though, I've always wondered why Gave Up ALWAYS had that light combo.
Broken could use a god damn remaster. I'll bet that would sound awesome. If there are any unreleased b-sides from Broken I don't know about, I would absolutely die for the chance to hear them.
Now I'm Nothing, the third track that Trent did to go along with Suck and Physical (which we probably already have, but who knows) and Wish (original lyrics) are all I can think of. Though, should the album be remastered? The whole point is its roughness.
But a triple disc release with Broken Movie + commentary etc would not go amiss. Can't even access TPB from the UK anymore without a proxy so the torrent release is a bit out of date.
