Music Appreciation
WARNING: Graphic and Inappropriate Language
Twenty years ago, Closer was released. It was the second single from Nine Inch Nails' album The Downward Spiral.
The song came out the summer I graduated from high school, and I remember driving in my blue Pontiac Sunbird, with my girlfriend Cathy and her friend Wendy singing "You let me violate you..." then the chorus "I want to fuck you like an animal."
This was a big deal, because the lyrics were dark but sexual. Mark Romanek, the director for the music video, brought life to Trent Reznor's volatile lyrics with dark images of sex, animal cruelty, and religion.
