}}'''"Ringfinger"''' is the tenth and final track on the 1989 release ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]]''. The demo version of this song was called "Twist," which remains musically almost identical but uses alternate lyrics.

*''[[Purest Feeling (halo)|Purest Feeling]]''
*''[[Demos and & Remixes]]''
==Versions==
This is the final album version. Opening with a thumping beat and a synth melody, Reznor's reverberating vocals dominate the verses. A different beat is introduced during the second verse, while vocal harmonies and a synth pad enter during the choruses. During the break, there is a short distorted guitar riff before the final verse and choruses. The end of the track comes in after the final chorus with a funky guitar riff playing over a panned drum beat. This is followed by a scream sampled from the beginning of [[Jane's Addiction]]'s "Had a Dad," which leads into an entirely different beat, accompanied by a synth that sounds very similar to the one used in "[[That's What I Get]]" and vinyl scratching.
===Twist(''Purest Feeling'' Version)===
Found on the ''Purest Feeling'' bootleg, it uses different lyrics.
(Twist twist twist)
===Twist (''Demos & Remixes'' Version)===
The "Twist" recording on ''Demos & Remixes'' substitutes the following line:
From the small of your back up to your chin
and also includes the spoken lyrics printed at the end of the "Ringfinger" in the ''Pretty Hate Machine'' liner notes.
