HURT (Nine Inch Nails Cover) - AINJEL EMME

[@ericwells7777]

As a NIN fan I wanted to hate this before I even watched it simply because EVERY time I click on a NIN cover on youtube im disappointed...HOWEVER...THIS...This was spot on...Truly a worthy cover, Nice job!!!

[@ainjelemme]

+ericwells7777 thank you!! that's awesome. i'm grateful to the writers of these songs we feel so deeply!!

[@DM2GamingChannel]

That dude in the background is amazing too...

[@DSKim-ej5uf]

I felt it while watching your video that appeared in front of my KZbin window with a fluttering look like in a dream. Thank you for the algorithm that made it possible to watch good videos, I hope that you will succeed as you have worked hard for your dreams. No matter how dark the night sky, it can be beautiful because of your image in front of me. Even if it's just a passing relationship that I've never seen offline and don't know the name of, I'm so happy to meet you through your video in the KZbin world. On the waves waving and swaying on the huge sea called KZbin, my little channel boat is paddling towards my dream today. I am very lucky to have found your video while rowing a small paddle and going endlessly and endlessly. After watching your video, I really fell in love with it. Your video shines the most on my KZbin window right now. Your video is the best video. Watching your videos makes me really happy. I wish you could stay by my side forever. In the night sky, in the wide KZbin world like the Milky Way, I accidentally met your beautiful video like a star and enjoyed it as if in a dream. Even if the KZbin road is rough and the rain and wind blows, and everything in this world moves away from me, I will always keep your video in my memory. Even if the seasons pass and the years pass and the mountains and streams change, I think the KZbin world will never change and will last forever. Whether it was a coincidence or a coincidence based on an unknown mysterious algorithm, I opened my KZbin window and your thumbnail caught my eye. You have the ability to make your videos instantly stunning and attractive. Thank you for making my lonely heart so happy after watching your video.

This is the best female cover of this song, I feel. The emotion conveyed with the minor chords is wonderful. Well done! It helps to have a girl sing a song that I relate to. Sticks in my soul so much better.

[@terrimoore8879]

Glad I finally discovered you as I was looking for a song to convey my life emotions. You do it better than anyone, altho Brian Justin Crum's "Creep" is very close. I must needs listen to more of you!

[@terrimoore8879]

Also, you have a great Kurt Cobain vibe!

[@ainjelemme]

I was 14 when he died. He was my hero.

[@OhHelloSugar]

Dear god, this is heartbreakingly beautiful. A stellar cover of the NIN song.

[@ainjelemme]

+OhHelloSugar what a song, right??!! i can't listen to it without stopping whatever i'm doing and just going.... "whoooooooo".

[@tarajones575]

Oh dear ..i discover in 2022, this wonderfull cover. One of the Best.. great work .. bravo 😉👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏

[@timotarttanen8841]

About time a female singer can perform this tune such so hurtful song well done Ainjel your performance has brought tears to me

[@JoeHuman]

Your Major 3rd vox over the Minor 3rd and eventual Flat 5 on pianer absolutely devastate me. My man's harmonies are also full stop on point. Just the best cover of this song online, period.

[@ainjelemme]

I live for the half step rub :) Thank you for your kind words

[@winstonrankin6932]

Far and away the best cover of this song on youtube. Kudos to the dude in the back.

[@ainjelemme]

thanks! you can check out erich's music at barnabysaints.com

[@terminalfrost3358]

... I know you can't see me standing and applauding this performance. You earned it !!!

[@ainjelemme]

+Terminal Frost - thank you

[@sharonshook5924]

I have NEVER heard anything more BEAUTIFUL, DEEP,FEELING in my life of fifty plus years. Definitely a new and forever fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kus0mak]

Ainjel is my all time favourite starving artist. I wish I owned a record company. I'd make her the face of the label. Thanks for all the memories and music Ainjel. Glenn

[@ainjelemme]

awwww thanks sugar pie

[@DixonWh2]

What a tremendous version! I remember finding this when it was posted a while back. After 12 years I am still right here.

[@herpderp3747]

Really amazing. Searched like hell for a woman covering the original song and at last I found it! The other videos on the search are just men covering Johnny Cash' version with the guitar, which I do not fancy very much. This cover is really great, piano and female singers really do deserve a much larger place in the music world, especially when it comes to alternative music, which is often dominated by men. The duette was really good as well. Mega applause and credits!

[@JoeHuman]

hands down. best cover. yo.. you hit that hard major 3.. and it.. LITERALLY changed my life. i ONLY wanna hit that hard 3maj now. excuse me. i have to go reevaluate my ENTIRE existence cos of this BRILLIANT cover. *dissolves into a non corporeal mist*

[@ainjelemme]

Joe Human hahha awww :)

[@LordJagd]

Fantastic rendition. A lot of people try to sing like they're actually in pain, while this captures the haunting feel of the original without being a mere copy.

[@oscarrr4204]

Out of all the versions I have heard of this song, your cover is by far the best.

[@birdlady7157]

Saw the Lifetime movie preview with this song in it had to come find the full version. Beautiful and haunting. Love it! You have a new fan.

[@ainjelemme]

Thank you, Sarah!!

[@SamuelRochester-p2k]

I liked every bit of that. Talent, productions and mostly spirit. I felt it all. I remember everything!!

[@raindropsxxonxxroses]

Absolutely beautiful! One of the best covers of this song

[@tocaqueen55]

Loved her version of this awesome song...

[@alicepinafore]

hi ainjel - i love this, and please don't be discouraged from posting things you've just done "on the spur of the moment", because they're wonderful to listen to. I do love listening to these late at night... your voice lifts the sad lyrics beautifully.

[@FrankBell]

I love you and Erich so f'ing much. Miss you all!

[@warmcold9717]

Wonderfully done. Most covers are overly pop-infused/not understanding when to insert emotion into the singing. Beautiful. Left me teary eyed, as it should.

[@sunrisegirl729]

This is beautiful. Such a natural voice and a great tribute to this song.

[@Shrimpfart]

I've listened to almost all of your songs.. You have the most incredible talent for changing just enough to make me hold silence !! Thank you so much for your gift.

[@ainjelemme]

Thank YOU. That's very kind. I try to pick songs I really feel, I'm glad you feel it too! :)

[@madisonsikes9220]

I was watching Lifetime and I heard your song and I FREAKED OUT!! I've been listening to your cover of this song for so long. I'm so proud of you.

[@ainjelemme]

Thanks, Madison! I really appreciate the support. :)

[@CHHSGuardBoy2]

First time I had heard this version was from Greenfield-Central winterguard program in 2014, (so 2 years 5 months later I found it!!!!!) I agree that after Johnny Cash this is the second best cover of the song!!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!!!!

[@benudgardson1201]

Thank you for touching my heart and soul. The last time i felt this song that way was back in 1994 when i played the downward spiral in my old cassette recorder for the first time. Time stopped as tears ran down my cheeks.

[@NoSplashBack1]

Played with pure emotion and feeling. Bloody fantastic.

[@RoboGeek123]

WHY DOESN'T THIS HAVE MORE VIEWS! This is music at its apex. Such powerful emotion put into this song by trent and conveyed again by these guys. I love it so much. Made me cry and I'm a grown man. So good. Thanks for puting up this song

[@Sleepingoth123]

WOW! I've watched a few covers if this song today and you killed it. You really made it your own. Fantastic

[@ainjelemme]

+Matthew Short thanks matthew!

[@monaporter7132]

powerful voice....lovely lady...back up vocal softly added to make this an extraordinary number for you

[@mayazzzzz]

the ending note gave me goosebumps...this is just amazing!

[@ainjelemme]

+Mayaz Dimashki thank you!! :D

[@bradblazer]

Before hearing this version, I thought only 2 people that have ever walked this earth should be "allowed" to play this song. But, this is simply amazing.

[@ainjelemme]

+bradblazer thank you very much. you can't half ass this song, that's for sure! :)

[@ladydebal]

So haunting and beautiful. Gave me the chills throughout. Thank you for that, your voice is a gift.

[@ainjelemme]

+Yvonne R thank you

[@Pocketmouse05]

I wasn't expecting tears. Damn, you got me.

[@ainjelemme]

+Kari Miller awwwww ;) thanks kari

[@hellokitty9191]

I love the pure/raw emotion. It is beautiful.

[@calbiecm]

I honestly didn't expect much from this. But my god, this is a great cover. Amazing job.

[@ve3plo]

Awesome, Brilliant, from the bottom of your heart! Had Goosebumps listening to it.

[@ainjelemme]

[@1222maureen]

A, no matter the subject or the dark depth of the sea, you always bring sunshine to me. MO

[@donna3465]

That was really beautiful. Awesome voice.

[@jamesyoakum8152]

Wow! Very impressed. I grew up on the original NIN stuff and this something not to be missed.

[@ainjelemme]

+James Yoakum HUGE nin fan here, thank you!!

[@devin1851]

A very good musician and probably one of the most relevant artists today!

[@mathewsantiago8451]

solid and good cover. melodic alterations are on point. not too much, not too little. arrangement on the keyboard is good too. tempo is perfect. my only complaint is that you need the guy on the upper harmony to be louder. Can't even make out some of the notes from him. Good job! :)

[@unicornsandrainbowsandchic2336]

How does this not have more views? Amazing and beautiful.

[@ainjelemme]

+unicorns and rainbows and chicken and stars - thanks for listening

[@alicepinafore]

@ainjelemme I've been having a rough time lately and when i play one of the cover songs for the sleepless, it helps me so much. it makes me want to get sober when i've had a relapse. i remember back to when we met, and i didn't hang round you & rubes too much cos I was so shy. but i'm so glad we met, it's something i treasure.

[@Rleiterh]

Amazing.... simply amazing

[@nan1975]

Love love love !

[@ainjelemme]

+Nancy Schilbe thanks thanks thanks! :)

[@agusgener74]

Oh....My.....God....!! Really amazing voice, amazing perfomance and amazing video. The more simple, the more good. Very difficult to find an expressive voice as this one on KZbin. Good choice with this sad song as well. You have an special and emotive talent....My congratulations!! ...Very very good!!!
