Not complete without Trent Reznor stalking David Bowie.
😂😂😂
Dave Grohl did too (literally) ....who wouldnt?
while I feel ya, they fucking jam playing this live
And shooting up a taxi cab.
Hahahaha - yes!
kudos to the sound engineer. Fantastic work
I agree!
Sonic perfection
It's NIN, would you expect anything less?
Absolutely! The unsung HERO. Good on you for bringing attention to it.
Yes..in my “Morpheus Voice”...🔥
i think that no one gives enough credit to the cameraman. Great job man, great job!
It is a drone
@@MiguelMorales85 No, it was Rob Sheridan, walking on stage with a steadicam
Rob Sheridan the original NIN fan turned photographer
The creative genius rob Sheridan, responsible for most of the bands creative since the downward spiral cover art.
Smart smart the little people make it happen.
It helps that the sound quality of this concert is MUCH better, even on youtube, than on most of the CDs nowadays. Loudness war is no illusion.
The louder the better!
@@MyEgoMyThoughts except that when everything is equally loud then nothing is loud.
When everything is loud, you loose dynamic range.
@@MyEgoMyThoughtsit doesnt work like that.
David Bowie's somewhere behind the curtain going "a a a a a a a a a a" into the microphone,.
@nasser wiz, This is a live recording from 2009. Check your mom, newbee, shes dead
.
@nasser wiz no u
@nasser wiz fool
@nasser wiz that comment was posted 5 years ago....Bowie was alive then, dude.
Obviously just a sample of the original recording triggered by MIDi or something
This song holds more and more true every day
That and Biotech is Godzilla by Sepultura
God is an American..
Aint seen nothin yet
I’m afraid of liberals and socialists. So fuck you both respectively coming from a proud conservative American. Also congrats Texas love from California.
As soon as Trump was elected prez, this song just crept its way back into my head and wouldn't leave. But yeah, in principle it has always been true, regardless of who holds office.
Ilan Rubin is a beast on the drums
Sure is
I agree I also like how he uses his left hand on his hi hat. Its cool to watch!
The dude on the bass 🔊 is killing it..
Absolute true
On the real
Rob Sheridan, the greatest concert cameraman ever
Well, that's.....just, like yer' opinion......Maaaaaaan.
(Just kidding Walter - this song is mucho dope!)
Holy hell, I feel like Bowie was there! What an excellent performance! And despite having just one cameraman, it was captured well. So raw. My favorite thing about this is how each instrumental part was interpreted uniquely for a live performance. Vocal emphasis... that lead synth! ...drums that had to be the live equivalent of an already larger-than-life amen break style drum n' bass sample (nailed it!), and of course the guitar as well, shined through at just the right parts. Bass - nice tonality. For this show, I am: Afraid of Americans / jealous of Canadians.
I want this at the Super Bowl.
He's really quite a performer. He seems so focused on his audience. Like to see that in any performer.
Just saw NIN perform this in Raleigh. Reznor’s voice is as good as ever.
Agreed. I saw them opening weekend for 2022 tour at red rocks and he sounded impeccable.
This whole concert is one of the best live recordings of NIN 💯
That was great,hard to beat the original with David Bowie and Trent two of the most original musicians in our lifetime
the drummer really makes a good work !!!
I was at this concert. Closest I can say I ever came to seeing Bowie live. It was literally the most popular part of the show. His voice still cannot compare but it's such a great 90's song.
Tara Suzanne Literally?
Doa search for Outside tour of 1996, my first concert, bowie with prick and NIN opening.
I was up in the lawns...trying not to get moshed 🤷♂️
Leonard J Krabs I've seen Bowie play with NiN and tbh it was not a good pairing energy wise. However I would have loved to have seen PRICK.
Tara Suzanne literally... the best part of the concert was seeing NIN play, because it was a NIN show
Love the on stage perspective! feels so fresh and different from all other live vids, wish more artists would do this.
Best NIN Line Up ever! Please come back like this!!!
BatemanNY i think the byit line up was better but I'm a huge twiggy fan 😬
,Man I liked The Slip line up a lot ..... Josh Freese on drums and Alessandro Cortini on bass/synth (he`s current I think)....
The bassist in this video, Justin Meldal-Johnsen, I saw him playing with Beck on SNL, I guess that`s a good gig instead of waiting around for Trent to stop hanging out with Dr. Dre and Apple douchebags, and making music for shitty movies instead of fronting one of the best bands ever.
This would be the ultimate live experience if NIN released a DVD/blu ray of a show filmed like this
I was there for this show! So much awesomeness... Great tune. Sounded even better in person.
me too!! It was an incredible set!
Nine Inch Nails is what started it all for me, before I was just listening to Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth, and Pantera, which I still do here and there, ... and then I heard The Downward Spiral in '95 when I was about 14, 15 and then everything changed, I learned every lyric within a week and went to the Coca-Cola ampitheater show in Atlanta with David Bowie where I smoked marijuana for the second time, but got stoned for the first time 'cause it didn't work the first time.
🤘
❤
one of the greatest live bands ever
I remember being in that crowd that day and being blown completely away. Wasn't expecting to hear that live; it totally made my day. Good times! :D
I love Trent Reznor, he's a genius!!
Covid19 official soundtrack
Then George Floyd cranked the volume up to 11! All lives won't matter... Untill black lives matter!!!
@Marque Markofthebeast I know the news is no longer news... Now it's "infotainment" with a hard slant in whatever the corporate oligarchs want the direction in both left and right! But you gotta reel it back in my man... Start going off that Alex Jones deep end and we will have to get you back on your meds like Google Mail!
@stinkydog dogstink Guess I just feel off the turnip truck cause some troll on the internet said soooo. Lighten up man enjoy some NIИ!
@stinkydog dogstink I'm starting to think it's my BLM post is what bothers you...
@stinkydog dogstink Troy Goode
This was and probably will forever main, My favorite concert of all time.
Great sound. This is my favorite NIN lineup. Finck is the shit and has a good voice
The drummer is really good - Cracking live performance of I'm Afraid of Americans - Bowie knew these dudes were very special as they enhanced each other with their musical genius - A song for modern day America.
That groovy jam from 4:00 mins on is beyond words good. 👌 much love Trent.
Thank you God for blessing us with David Bowie he will truly be missed
2021 and this song is still relevant AF. 😐
2023 same
This would have been perfect if Bowie had appeared for the duet.
He’s ded dood
Miguel Morales comment was 6 years ago David Bowie died 4 years ago.... hmmmm
Dick Laurent,
.....is dead.....
@@xdavie3 He's a fucking idiot!
@@MiguelMorales85 I miss him all the time... He was a brilliant musician, humanitarian, actor, artist... He was very much alive during the recording of this video. You're an idiot doood!
this is the fucking best jam and version of this song; is it just me or do these guys fucking rock?
Trent sounds so much like when he was in the 90s! How's this possible????
Syahirah Izzaty it’s Trent ❤️
He's sober and in a perfect shape
He’s God
He's Jesus christ on extacy
controls his voice and doesn't overly stress it. Longer life span as a singer
The quality of this is just other worldly
God like genius on record, god like genius on stage. Thirty years in and still getting it done.
Was pleasantly surprised when they played this in montreal just hours ago.
i love this version
I love these videos of their live shows...keep 'em coming!
Rez-onates more than ever today...
Jonathan ...born Vandenberg .... 10.17.82 ....Hebrews 10:17 ....Air Force took. Amnesia.
Michael and I both saw the Presence.
damn I'd love a studio version with Trent doing vocals.. nothin against Bowie :)
+John Neave I love David Bowie but holy hell Trent can do this song a lot better not offending mr Bowie
frank marin check out the Brian Eno version n showgirls, the one with Sonic youth and the one with Doug Wimbush
The quality of this might as well be a studio version
@@dantexpcd I prefer Bowie a little more than Trent Reznor as a creator, but I think I preffer Trent's version a little more
@@Thomas_of_the_forest I guess its because the song sounds mike a NiN Song to begin with.
I've been waiting a long time for a Pro shot footage of this live version. Awesome!
What an amazing cover! Just another reason why I love NIN!
Oh God, I love the version with David, but my God Trent, you're trying to kill me
Love that he does this song live still. BOWIE APPRECIATES IT I'M SURE
This is the best live video I have ever seen. Love the camera.
praise rob for this glorious footage
Trent actually helped produce the original with bowie
actually bowie and brian eno did the original
then trent remixed it and that completely overshadowed the original
which is fine because this version is 100 times better
You think Trent is not behind all this? Think again.
The idea that all three icons touched the track is big
@@speculesgorgoth4055 No he wasn't behind it. It was written by Bowie and Eno for the Outside sessions.
@@th3r3dr3dkroovy Each to his own. I prefer the original version. It was the one I heard first.
I was there! So epic. That is all.
this song is the perfect thing to show how much inspiration david was for trent. i love it
Amazing song!!! One of my favorites!!!
Omg, I've never seen this live before.
@Burner666
Agreed. That was definetly a show for the fans. The entire setlist just blew me away. I left this show torn because I couldn't decide if this or the previous lights in the sky show was the best concert I had ever been to. Lights in the sky visually was just mindblowing, bu the setlist here was like a wishlist of songs that I had never seen performed live but had always wanted to.
So you got to see the best concert of your life - twice! Lucky you, now stop gloating. lol
NOW... here's a song that makes total sense in 2021!
one of my very fav NIN songs! I wish they'd played it in Budapest last summer!
thank you so much for the upload!
Epic. I wish it was on Spotify.
Auténtico y puro. Lo de NIN es un estilo vocal y musical que será intraspasable. Se quedan para si mismos el molde.
Just so relatable. Way to take a song that is about a really serious scary concept and make you forget all about it because it sounds so amazing...
Seeing these guys Live makes me so thankful for being alive and how fucking great life really is. 🤘🏼
Or just music! That is something though....
I WAS THERE!!! It was the greatest day of my life.
@4:30 - 4:35 that synth line and the trade between the guitar is sweet. If you’re a musician you know that look @4:24 when you transition and your both on point and your into it, pretty sweet.
This was so well shot.
Usually I don't like listening to (recorded) live performances.... but the drums and bass on this are crunchy.
wow cool camera work...
the p.o.v. makes me feel like
i'm right up on the stage
jammin with the band.
What ever happened to great music! Today, your lucky if you get anything as remotely as good as this
As cliche as it sounds, these days you really have to work to find something that's original and stands on it's own.
We’re trying with our music; NIN & Bowie both massive influences over us 💜
Great tune! Great performance! Great cover! Great band!
Amazing lyrics great sound and perfect vocal harmony always a pleasure
Brilliant live vid - thx for uploading. I love this track - musically - unfortunately it also reflects - as a UK citizen - how I feel about Americans :(
Kessskah This is how Americans think of Americans too
@@iceloracingnetwork9427 yeah...
@@iceloracingnetwork9427 Take a guess at how us Canadians feel...
RIP BOWIE
Thank you Trent and the gang!!! Merry Christmas!!!
This is so good!!
Legends!!
Funny...watched Purge 3, end of the movie, song, google song...having in mind "sounds like NIN", finds out its David Bowie :> that dude...
It was a colaboration
@@dopey473 Yes.....but I have never heard of it before.
@@dopey473 No it wasn't. It was an original song by David Bowie and Brian Eno, it was left over from the '1.Outside' sessions, and Bowie re-recorded it for the 'Earthling'album. NIN had nothing to do with it's creation, but did do a decent remix and performed with Bowie in the video.
@@scottwoodward8022 yeah I know I just found out very late after making my original comment, listened to the full album and yeah it's so weird to hear the original
Robin is really enjoying it 😍
He is loving it!
This show was amazing! This song was definitely a great highlight.
Your Profilepicture is also highlight 😊😍🥰😉👌👌greetings from Germany!
Ions ago saw David Boeie concert with NIN remember that concert like yesturday..that was 30yrs ago..still fresh
This has great sound...Headphones on !!!!
I was at this show ! Janes Addiction was the headliner ......lol
+Jason Mcnea I went to the one in Jones Beach on the same tour. So many people were leaving after NIN that the staff were reminding people there was another band haha
NINJA tour! ;)
That’s laughable, I mean Janes Addiction has some cool songs but c’mon!
Soon Forget I’ve seen that happen at shows too- kinda sad and funny at the same time. I’ve also been fortunate enough to have seen some incredible opening bands I would have never known about.
I was at this show too!
Hey, I was there for this!
Great Show. This was my 3rd outta 4 NIN shows in 9months =)
RIP Master
love David Bowie's and Trents duo!
awesome as always
I went to this show. It was Awesome!
Drummers name? Great drummer!
Ilan Rubin
Yes! He’s awesome and makes me want to go play my drums!!! NIN has been such a huge influence for me on all the instruments I play. Love them!
If David Bowie had walked on stage, I'd have shit my pants.
GREAT song. Wish I had been there.
Great job! We love you and miss you David.
beautiful mix
the 2013-2014 tour Trent and everyone seemed so much younger and more energetic and even Trent's voice seemed younger and livelier. how the hell did they do that? aren't you supposed to get older with time????
Damn! This man is so intelligently hot! It's genius! x3
Tremendous cover!
Wow! Awesome cover!!!
I've seen NIN more than any other band and I have to say that it was weird seeing everything performed in the light (I was quite surprised that they went on before Jane's Addiction.) I saw them in Detroit this past summer.
Seen 'em in Detroit and Tokyo. The Fragile era and Bad Witch era respectively... always great! Made my life better. Thanks, guys! lol
The comments on the other video with David Bowie have been "disabled",,
I'm Native American, and I'm fuckin afraid of Americans.
Welcome to the new Rez, FEMA.
Funny reference!
Ewwwww! Psycho.
***** lock up your daughters and lock up your wives
oh man this rocks!!!!!!!!!!
Great cam work!!
leave it to Trent to take a cover to a whole nother level
When this song came out it felt like Bowie singing a NIN song
I'm afraid of evangelical Christians...I'm afraid of doctors...I'm afraid of pop stars...I'm afraid of myself
Stormy Green I agree. Not even trying to be funny..even if that was a joke its true for me
I'm afraid of my neighbors. I'm afraid of police. I'm afraid of being straight. I'm afraid of love.
I'm afraid of nothing...
Good show. Definitely loved seeing them live in Toronto :)
Nicely mixed!
