A previous version of the video was partially shot but abandoned, and is included on the ''[[Closure]] '' DVD. The band performs the song in a red cave-like set with water at their feet, and a midget appears.
Being a staple NIN song with its high energy segued by two piano breakdowns, there is a live performance video of "March of the Pigs" on each of their live releases: ''[[Closure ]]'', ''[[And All that Could Have Been]]'', and ''[[Beside You in Time]]''. In the live set, the band extends the song by including an amped up version of "All The Pigs, All Lined Up" at the end of every performance. Also in most(?) performances in the pre-With Teeth eras, the songs starts with the same high pitched squeal it does in the performance video for the song. Since the start of the [[With Teeth]] tour, the song now starts with a synth line that matches the one played behind the second set of measures for the song originally (this section now completely omitted from the song, the guitars coming in completely along with they synth after the first drum run through.)
"March of the Pigs" has been covered by Owl, [[Mae]], and [[fordirelifesake]].
