Changes

Hurt has been covered by a variety of artists, such as [[Matthew Good]], [[Peter Murphy]], and [[Sevendust]]. The song gained a new wave of popularity in 2002 when it was famously covered by [[Johnny Cash]], at the recommendation of producer [[Rick Rubin]]. This caused a lot of confusion for the audiences of Cash, who generally weren't familiar with the work of [[Nine Inch Nails]], often resulting in miscrediting the song to Cash. In Cash's version, the line "crown of shit" is changed to "crown of thorns," but is otherwise unchanged.

On the original album version, the guitars contain distortion, making it sound adding a raggedaesthetic to the song. The album suddenly climaxes towards the end, while the final lyrics are whispered over the noise. A drone follows, and ends the song and the record.

The only real difference between this remix and the original is that the guitar sound is much cleanerand the climax towards the end is less drastic.
