AND ALL THAT COULD HAVE BEEN LA MER & THE GREAT BELOW NIN

from halo 17 dvd
la mer and the great below
NINJOY!

[@jaketheraper]

to this day still one of the greatest moments in live music history.

[@uNii7y]

Do you have the DVD? If you don't you need to buy that shit. INCREDIBLE! Me and my old man listen to it on his insane stereo system.

[@paulthebeau7061]

I couldn't agree more DTOM

[@danielstone8686]

i'll never forget it. so powerful.

[@duane2080]

try living an hour away from his birth and noone knows him

[@djhlebinsky3349]

I'm from Ellwood City, PA Trent/ Mercer, PA 40minutes away Maynard james keenan/ Ravenna,OH, about an hour away

[@matthewturk8660]

This man's music saved my life.

[@CrimZonMoOn333]

I Feel you !!!!

[@HealthyHabitsGrow]

Me too. To the point i tatooed NIN on my arm to remind me of all that could have been😇

[@Scadia]

6:35 That duet part. My God I could listen to it forever. Robin always compliments Trent so well.

[@danielstone8686]

it's so simple and perfect.

[@docgoodwood6013]

Been experiencing NiN live since 1992 was at the new Orleans show for the DS tour and was at state palace theater at the beginning of the tour and at UNO lake front arena for the end of the tour where he recorded the video for hurt and that UNO gig changed my life and open my 3rd eye. The jim rose freak show was unreal i was 19 me n my crew had floor tickets a head full of cidny and to this day i thank my lucky life for all my experiences this fragility tour was epic as fuc not only bc APC was there openr it was what brought us into the millennium so thank you treant for making my life great. I lov n thank you.

[@phantom_pixel]

Saw this tour live. Still one of the greatest shows I've ever seen to this day. 'The Fragile' is a modern Masterpiece!

[@Tracyandrebs]

7.01 in tears... 7.58 rolling down my cheeks. words cannot describe my adoration for this man and his music xx

[@SMSimon]

Finally, getting to travel out of town and see a concert... this stoned 17 year old, back in 2000, got to witness this live and absolutely fall in love with live music. I'll never forget watching this show, right in front of Robin, and Trent violently jumping into the part of my crowd. I refused to shower for a couple days, as I was touched by my God, Trent fucking Reznor! Ps... also got to catch this little known of band, I think called "Perfect Circles" or something similar, open the show! 😋

[@paulthebeau7061]

The artist responsible for the video explains his approach and process on the dvd that accompanied the box set. If one doesn't know who Bill Viola is, he is a pioneer in video as a medium, and will be taught in art history classes 500/1000 years from now... This collaboration was perfect.

[@jondeer360]

Bill Viola is a icon, I love that Trent used him. He as a work at the IMA, Indianapolis Art Museum

[@TrixieValcyn]

After every song he thanked the audience... Thank *you* Trent, for making beautiful, original sounding music for so many years. We

[@gmodesike]

my newborn son is named trenton because of this man

[@n0vi]

It's sad to see him in so much pain... especially knowing what he revealed during the last concerts- he wrote this and La Mer while "on the ocean" where he planned to kill himself. In this video, he is truly a tortured artist.

[@HealthyHabitsGrow]

I was close to that in 2019..at the beach and had the thought. Shared it and my girls intervened. I dont knownhow to swim. Was just gonna walk out. 1st time ive talked about it in 5 years. And here i am..on a public medium. Most who know me would have no idea. He "saved me". Many moons ago. Realized i was not alone. NIN tatoo on my arm for decades to remind me of all that could have been. 5 years ago was a weak moment😔

[@Plur307]

I think these slow songs are the only thing that keeps people from passing out due to heat exhaustion in the pit. They are such a nice break after an hour of fighting for your life.

[@carasquires6830]

I was lucky enough to see this live on this tour at Red Rocks. Getting to See my all time favorite band play in my hometown at the greatest amphitheater in the US was indescribable! I'll never forget the way I felt that night! Still gives me goosebumps.

[@frostjune6072]

damm even just going to red rocks is bucketist for me and you saw NIN there? fuck man

[@carasquires6830]

@@frostjune6072 I grew up in Littleton which is very close to Morrison, Co. Where red rocks is located. My high-school's graduation ceremony was actually held at red rocks and I have seen many shows there, but NIN was by far the best concert I've ever been to at red rocks or anywhere else! I do feel extremely lucky that I got to grow up and spend most of my life in Colorado which allowed me such amazing experiences. I do hope you make it there someday and get to check that item off your list because it really is such a beautiful place. I miss living there very much!

[@frostjune6072]

thanks! several of my favourite artists play there yearly now so fingers crossed ​@@carasquires6830

[@frostjune6072]

​@@carasquires6830also i got that same feeling from them when they played basically a town square during 2013, what an incredible live experience best nightbof my life so far

[@UklaTheMokk]

The only full version of La Mer from AATCHB on youtube...and that's the best version of La Mer NIN has ever played. I'm so glad I saw it live on this tour. I only wish the sound on this were higher quality...sounds like it was sampled at a lower rate. I appreciate the post though.

[@ziggypop5545]

The Fragile is a masterpiece..21 years after I got still the same feelings...proud to see Nin twice live...try to save myself but myself keep sleeping away....

[@EnigmaticUnseen]

This performance still moves me to this day, I'm 34 and saw this when I was 16. Then I notice the ad for Frito Lay right below and it nauseates me.

[@Mertule93]

This is the greatest concert I've ever seen on DVD, the effects, Trent's voice, the quality, the sound... Just perfect. I really admire Trent's skills and the perfectionism in everything he does.

[@m1ke1981]

The way he touches the LED backdrop at the end of La Mer.. 🤩

[@MissAtlantique]

cannot stop listening to it...i am addicted the intro and the first 7mins....

[@mrEsub]

The great below punches you right in the soul.

[@CrimZonMoOn333]

Always !

[@ThatMeansHesMad]

​@@CrimZonMoOn333Pretty much steals my soul away in a very deep way every single time I hear this. Brings my grown ass man eyes to tears to this day

[@Don_E_Pham]

it's truly one of the most sincere compositions written, performed, and displayed i think of our generation. It is one of the songs that has helped define my life and thoughts. It encourages you and almost challenges you to feel according to whatever you can associate this sequence to. I am also very glad they used this from the dvd and didn't separate La Mer and the great Below from one another. They compliment one another so perfectly.

[@johnnesi7745]

When I saw this live it was simply majestic

[@Larkinsmithx]

just beautiful, raw, passion

[@stephanieann9770]

That was amazing synchronicity with their instruments, especially the wave in the beginning/build up

[@hhhuman]

"Ocean pulls me close And whispers in my ear The destiny I've chose All becoming clear The currents have their say The time is drawing near Washes me away Makes me disappear"

[@tim8895]

Back in the day, watching the three blue screens coming down behind the band, then seeing the first raindrop blew my mind.

[@Junior_Meat]

From where I was seated, the panels looked like they were head level at first, which I thought was a safety issue. And then they started moving and I thought for sure that someone was going to be crushed. Then I realized that I was high and learned to love the show. More than any other live show that I've ever seen in my life ever. It was the experience of a lifetime. Then my friend jumped down onto the arena floor and was quickly grabbed by security. And I was back to thinking about safety issues. I was apparently the Reuben Feffer of my time.

[@osmanbey1923]

One of the best live performances ever in my opinion, the perfect combination of a great band, a great song (especially The Great Below) with one of the best video artists ever, just love Bill Viola's work! Thanks for sharing!

[@jfayiii]

Robin looking into the camera @ 2:38 as if to say "Look at my neato slide thingy go!". My favorite part of this performance.

[@modest182nails]

Every time I watch this I get tears in my eyes. The passion and emotion put into this is the most beautiful thing I've ever witnessed. I'd give anything to go back in time for this stage of NIN.

[@TheF1nalResistance]

These two songs is the greatest thing that ever happened.

[@KiloCharlieOne]

Listened to this on a bus ride through Hungary and serbia/Bosnia back in99'. Listened to it over and over.

[@opethinchains]

HANDS DOWN, my favorite trent reznor and nails song/performance. the ambient guitar note played through most of this is even better than the studio recording. (if u can imagine.) it reminds me of the sound that whales make. which in this particular case, is beautiful.

[@seanmackay3647]

I was lucky enough to see this live in Vancouver

[@rhettawilliams]

I can't begin to describe how much this album and live DVD/VHS set meant to me. I'm old AF and I'm still working through issues connected to this work. I can't hear the end of this record without crying.

[@greatdestroyer1]

I used to live near there and somedays I would drive down the coast and listen to the album this was on. The feeling unexplainable. Its isolated coastline very alone.

[@kkeelan]

If I remember right, the two songs were written to honor his feelings regarding the death of a family member that was very close to him.

[@abeck3682]

so hauntingly beautiful. I wish i could have been there live.

[@thegrillagorilla1]

And all that could have been was such an incredible concert, had the DVD and watched it end to end quite a few times

[@moochi3516]

Jesus. That's actually the rigging from "The Fragile" tour. Fuck. I saw this in Madison. Christ, time flies. I can still feel you, too, Trent.

[@sobreaver]

Emotionally psychologically intense.

[@PunkMartyr]

Haven't heard this in a while. Reznor is like a real life Neo opening your mind

[@wolfeman323232]

Blu Halo there are many. Find the others.

[@8Akerbeltz2]

these songs are amazing... when I die, these songs will sound in my funeral, but I hope that will be very far in time jeje

[@downtempoguy]

One of the best musical performances I’ve ever seen ❤, legendary

[@tbmuex]

That beat is friggen sick! I can never ever get tired of it

[@JesseReviews]

Trent Reznor is a fucking GOD! That fucking simple, he can do anything and nobody complains and everyone is fucking happy...Trent Reznor FTW!

[@500mgs8]

OH MY GOSH TWO OF THE BEST SONGS ON THE ALBUM

[@digitalbladeca]

To re-quote DTOM1776 "to this day still one of the greatest moments in live music history."

[@Vague1204]

Beautiful. Best La Mer I've ever seen. Really Beautiful!

[@FoShizzle713]

8:38 just genius, everything about it drums, guitar, bass, vocals, etc

[@genrah_the_gray]

Saw A Perfect Circle open for NiN on this tour in Carolina. Mindblowing 1 / 2 punch.

[@downtempoguy]

Jerome Dillion is so underrated as a drummer 🥁 ❤️

[@paramagic06]

this never gets old. it was the first of three times I saw nin live, and, by far, the best. simply amazing.

[@stoptakinallthenames]

this makes me so nostalgic. I remember watching this when i was younger and now i want to go back to those days. The music itself is so peaceful and mellow

[@iamnotagroupie]

this is my absolute favourite

[@franklingarcia4712]

What a masterpiece, so many crossed feelings when I hear it

[@fonkyman]

i keep comming back to these live vids shit is simply amazing truly some of the best music of our time :)

[@robinfinckisgod]

its called an "Ebow". it uses magnetic magic to make the string sustain. You hold it towards the string and then press down on a fret, and it'll play that note forever (or as long as the batteriest last :P)

[@500mgs8]

How could you not like this

[@fr7soul]

fabulous these 2 songs together. Was at a café listenning this album and had to come home to listen decently. Thanks for this video! Missed to listen NiN...

[@UklaTheMokk]

A shame the audio quality isn't better. Best song of the whole concert.

[@OingoBungle]

La mer means "the sea" in French, hence the water and the lyrics to "The Great Below"

[@ruthbirkin6873]

I never knew that. Though funnily enough i always imagined the great below as ocean depths

[@docnapalm45]

@Computer Whisperer it was actually in Big Sur , California not New Orleans

[@DannyDelusion]

Et quand le jour arrivé Map touné le ciel Et map touné la mer Et la mer va embrassé moi Et délivré moi lakay An rien peut arrêter moi konin la

[@tbmuex]

The special edition to AATCHB is awesome. CD 2 is sad a hell but wicked none the less.

[@coldmanblues1446]

This is why they are my favorite band of all time.... And thats saying Alot compared to all of the magnificent bands that are and have ever been... But Nine Inch Nails are my Favorite... Thank you guys..... Truly... Thank you ✌

[@tk-hf4oz]

The unsettling visuals are great.

[@cabeza156]

Dios Mio, que tema lleno de sentimiento, cuando dice "in the great below" se siente todo lo que queria expresar the fragile. una obra maestra que cerro los anelados noventa. Es verdad, los noventa fueran pura mierda. Pero estaban Nin, Blur, Nirvana, Happy Mondays, Pearl Jam y otros. The Fragile, gran disco. Gaston.

[@nemesiswontdie]

yup my personal favorite album has plenty of awesome songs that all of us nin fans can relate to

[@MissAtlantique]

10 years later I am back and second my words

[@Mafalda2102]

Great! Love all Nails songs... I want NIN concert in Poland...;< Is there hope for me, after all is said and done...

[@nemesiswontdie]

It's only on the DVD. Same as Just Like You Imagined and Complications. I was watching AATCHB a few days ago and I also noticed that Gave Up and Closer on the DVD is longer than on the Audio CD.

[@bolmsp]

nin forever

4 dislike's ... don't understand anything about music !!! Great NIN

[@TheWowmart]

@CovenantFan good call, Trent is an Artist . im sure no matter what media he worked with it would be great

[@HybridGothica]

i just love the music and the lights and..everything!

[@rheakurokawa]

oh the fragility guys. charlie and the whale sounds, danny, and jerome, and robin (thank god he's back) :). love

[@kegean]

I Ninjoyed It!!!!!!

[@ryanpb16]

That fucking ebow is soooo beautiful!

[@lotharofthehillpeople4381]

I love this

[@josephinedual5982]

2021 still love best music 🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵

[@The90sGamingGuy]

Finally found a decent priced AATCB set a month ago. Like the fact that there is music and eerie sound effects on the menu screens, and dark artwork. This is are very well mixed DVDs. Listening to this concert in surround is the way to go. If you get the DTS discs then you will have an even better listening experience granted you have a DTS capable sound receiver. Yes some of the footage is dark but that really sets the mood.

[@CluckyBaby]

Trent Reznor is one of the smartest people to ever live

[@prozie286]

This is my favorite version of The Great Below

[@FoShizzle713]

@opethinchains I agree, it's really hard to pick favorites with NIN but this song is amazing. This live version is much better than the studio recording - i love the ambient guitar in this one along with the picked guitar in the beginning. The overall sound is just incredible.

[@artemiscloud1]

@williamcardno also he drew these concepts from his journal. Which he hasn't done since. Mostly because he wanted to get away from it. I love the other album, and his ability to progress. Trying new things scare musicians that made them famous because they'll lose fans. Yet he did and I still love his music

[@francishughes542]

Jeez, The Nails, especially this track, are avant garde, unusual, different, off the beaten track, brilliant, weird, (in a complimentary way) Fantastic, i just love Trent,s interpretation of music, or is it just a completely different sound. ?.

[@clcnoize]

Montréal in 2000 fucking good ''souvenir'' of this tour !

[@tbmuex]

I am in love with ROBIN!!!

[@badylasty79]

Imagine, I just close my eyes and I see many

[@rheakurokawa]

i loved him a lot too. josh is a fantastic drummer, but he never gave me the same emotion jerome did. *sigh*

[@morningglorify]

@CovenantFan Trent Reznor was never a heroine addict. He did not start out as nothing. The day Trent breathed, his flame within began the process. We all have it in us. Some of us don't realize our potential - life is a bitch that way. Trent is a superbly disciplined, acutely instinctive artist. He is brilliant, I absolutely concur.

[@notor]

i love it

[@jacobsladder78]

I wish I still had this double dvd, I only have the case now :(

[@FoShizzle713]

@jcowell1977 You said it. La Mer is an incredible instrumental and this version is the best one I have heard. The only other instrumental that may be just as good as La Mer is Just Like You Imagined, another track from the fragile.

[@jfayiii]

Agreed... and that really is saying something.

[@mikeg9277]

I may be just a drop in the ocean.. Though what is an ocean but a collection of drops?

[@ThatMeansHesMad]

And what is a drop, but a collection of H20 molecules 🫠

This is art!🥀
