NIN - Every Day is Exactly the Same

[@willm7290]

My brother sent me this song shortly before his death a few months ago. I listen to it now and it helps me understand what he was going through. It's the most painful thing I've ever experienced. I only had him in my life, and he was too far gone for me to save him. He had already given up. I guess the only thing I can do now is pretend like this was a message he was trying to convey to me, and try to keep my life from going the same way. But, was it? I think it was just him feeling, living, the words in this song, wishing someone could help. And I failed. I will probably end up the same way. I've lived a decent life. When it's time, it's time. Hopefully I find some purpose before it's all over. I just wish he was here so we could figure all this out together. He was so smart.

I've never done any drugs and barely drink. Never even smoked a cig or a joint. But believe it or not, I'm envious of addicts who recover and can see life in a new way and feel motivated again. I'm completely sober and songs like this and Hurt and many others speak to my own pain, isolation and failure...but sadly I can't even point to addiction as the reason. And I can't find new life in recovery. It just all stays the same.

Reznor is so weirdly honest about shit. I seriously respect him for that. Not many artists will put themselves out there like Trent does when he writes about his own life and thoughts. Nothing speaks to us like truth and honesty, so naturally most of us can relate to what Trent puts out there. What a picture he paints of what our numbed lives are becoming in our tech-controlled world. "There is no love here and there is no pain" Trent... you are a fucking genius of epic proportions, dude.

I've been listening to this song for years now. Every now and then when life starts to suck I listen to it along with my list of other depression songs. I don't think I'm suicidal but this song always make me feel like there's nothing wrong with wanting to get to the end of this so called life. We're all just going through the repetitive motions of life. Some of us keep it together to make it through all of the BS and some of decide to find the end quicker... either way the happy joyful moments seem to get fewer and further apart the older I get and way too much of it is the crap that just makes me feel more numb.

[@mywhychromosome]

Whether intentional or not, the combination of this song's lyrics alongside its music together creates one of the most sickeningly accurate portraits of addiction I've ever heard...the sweeping music covers the 'high-drama' aspect--where life-or-death scenarios seem to be occurring constantly, simply as a matter of course, like there is a monster in your head that is not you but is somehow wearing your skin, in control of your muscles, your words...even your heart. And then the lyrics hit from the opposite angle: the mundane, grinding, repetitive day-in-day-out that is the actual reality of it; a place where "there is no pain"...but "there is no love", either...A purgatory. A 9 to 5 where you punch in to feel sick, and don't clock out until that feeling is alleviated...and then start it over again the next day. The one moment where the narration breaks away, and the 'real' person manages to get a few words in ["I'm writing on a little piece of paper..."] just serves to dovetail the two halves together. So fucking underrated

Over the years with a remarkable regularity Trent has left me so impressed with his ability to communicate and render an emotional experience and always with such a respectable authenticity that is all too rare. Some of the time I'm moved to such an extreme that I am at the end of the song in awe. And then there are the times when I can relate so much to the work that I can't help but think in another universe I just might write the exact same song and I am surprised at how we think and feel so similarly about something. For all the respect he has earned for being an artists artist and musicians musician it measures small next to the legendary status of his future legacy. If he stopped creating right now that would not change. Thank you, Trent for doing what you do and for doing it with constant artistic integrity. Respect from a kindred spirit.

Is it just me, or does Trent look like he's having a great time here? By the last minute he's struggling to hide his smile. I SAW YOU, YOU ANGSTY SHIRT-WEARING MAN!

[@khristinajuneau26]

James Beil the little freak out around 3:45 got me smiling

[@disnagburnazog9552]

Could be explained away as hysterical

[@melolabean7656]

It means expression smiling does not necessarily mean good time.You can smile and pain too.

[@maddisonjohnson4308]

James Beil it's adorable when an artist looks like they're having fun with their career.

[@myturntableonlyplayspigdes2640]

If his shirt comes off that's fine : )

Artiste qui force le respect de part sa sensibilité et son honnêteté. Cette chanson est une pure merveille d'introspection par rapport aux moments les plus sombres que j'ai pu traverser dans ma vie.

[@daviddorger6916]

One of the best songs Reznor ever wrote, and he's written a LOT of great songs. This one hits harder than the others.

[@saradmaharjan8521]

have you listened to And All That Could've Been, The Great Below or Something I Could Never Have then??

[@concernedcitizen4933]

He has written exactly 0 good songs. This band is horrible and anyone who is a fan has no taste.

[@warleafclover9655]

this song hit me hard the minute it actually came out and heard it the first time. I appreciate what Trent did for his life and does now. He is showing and saying that is could be better, we just need to not let it get to us and knockout the negative that consumes and takes a life sometimes.

[@bawdydog176]

Still remember my first exposure to NIN. Quake. Loved finding those ammo cans, usually at the last second.

[@adampalermo6203]

what a great song. Trent voice is so sick. chills down my spine

[@prestonhaddon6091]

Listening to this getting geared up to see them in Bangkok. Fuck if this isn't just tragic irony that I've been feeling like my life is someone's NIN mix tape. Trent really does know how to identify and more importantly express the angst and pain, sprinkled with a hint of pleasure, that is life. Fucking genius

[@doomgeneration2674]

This is the best version of this song. PERIOD.

[@johnjohnmacatangay9041]

Bring this kind of music back!!!

[@LAkadian]

Good luck with that. People like me are making it all over the world in small towns and suburbs as we're forced to work shitty dead-end jobs, and I know I'll die here. I've already accepted the shit.

[@David-zo7to]

One of their best

[@alwaysnauseous]

Dave Its probably their best single, except maybe Hurt and We're In This Together.

I love this song. It fits my mood now more than ever.

This is my jam right now

[@allenlieske2024]

This is my favorite song I absolutely love this band. They are beyond talented. Thank you so much.

[@enlightmentincorporated9203]

Every NIN performance is definitely not the same!👍

[@Autorall]

That BASS.

[@DENPEN_]

trent´s vocals are so beautiful🖤🖤

[@Huelogy]

Good song that can describe ones life as they try to put on a face that says "I'm happy with life" but in reality they hate it and waking up in the morning is a chore, because everyday is exactly the same. Everyone can put on a smile.

I LOVE THIS SONG

[@extendedpinky]

Me too. My fav NIN cut

[@ReshonBryant]

Just wanna say rest in peace to my buddy Jill. She passed away recently of an overdose. Jill was a woman, a lesbian, a fighter, and a friend that befriended me first. When she saw me out and about Jill would come up to me, slug me in the arm, and say Hey, buddy?🖤

[@abenaawitidikeledi4993]

I can't even say how much I can relate to these lyrics. One of the best, one of my favorite.

[@jasonbintz6681]

I just recently came across this song. After the first listen, I was like HOLY SHIT! This is me. This is so fucking me. This is literally my life right now.

[@Jermzaphobia]

This is not just my favorite song but its also my comfort song cause I feel like I'm controlled by my mother's beliefs and I can't speak up or I will get bullied more and because I get bullied almost every day in school and every day it's just the same it hurts so much

[@Unlucky1287]

These days wont last forever. You will have your whole life to create yourself after high school. This is just one small section of your life! You'll be surprised how things can change. Just try and make good choices and do your best to keep your head up ok?💗 I very much remember feeling that way when i was young. Im 41 now and generally pretty happy.

[@Jermzaphobia]

@@Unlucky1287 thank you, im trying to be more happy now and spend more time with friends

[@keithwente5930]

You aren't even YOU yet. You won't be for years. But these days are slowly molding you into the man you'll become. These are lessons that will make you stronger.... mentally and emotionally. So just remember that and keep going forward to YOUR destiny.

I pray the lord guides and protects you. Take a martial art, boxing, something that will teach you how to properly defend yourself 👍 you're unique and a special person with a purpose, don't forget that friend ✝️

[@hardloper070884]

This song means so much to me. My live is killing me with its routine.

[@Chris-TMH]

I honestly think that most people can relate to this song. I definitely can too. A lot of people online think this song is about multiple different things but I think this song is about getting tired of waking up and doing the same routine over and over and kind of dying inside and then ultimately wanting to die and killing yourself.. especially when the music slows down and he starts talking about writing a note and hiding it in a hard to find place.. it's a great dark lyrical song with music to match.

[@elianaatanos4630]

Holy CRAP. This is my life.

[@adamJKpunk]

Fucking classic performance.

[@helionyxcollective]

Most people can learn how to sing, but this man was born with such an iconic tone.

[@kimbalucy]

I am usually in a melancholy mood everytime I listen to this song, but I always laugh when he sings "I think I used to have a purpose" because in my head I always sing "I think I used to have a porpoise"

Glad I'm not the only one! 😂🐬
