adding running times for remixes
===Closer (Clean Pussy Radio Edit)===
'''''Running Time: 4:31'''''
This version is shortened and censored for radio airplay.
===Closer To God===
'''''Running Time: 5:05'''''
This is a major reworking of "Closer," and is quite different in sound and structure. The vocals were re-recorded (with a few lines of new lyrics) to fit the sound of this song:
You let me violate you, you let me desecrate you
===Closer (Precursor)===
'''''Running Time: 7:16'''''
This is an atmospheric remix, made up of heavily distorted synth and percussion loops that sound like machinery. The line "I want to fuck you like an animal" is repeated heavily in the last half. When the song reaches its ending, it changes from the mechanical sound of the rest of the remix to a stripped down form, consisting of only the first verse lyrics, a piano, and the synth drone from the beginning and end of the original song. A special edit was used in the credits of [[David Fincher]]'s ''Se7en''.

===Closer (Deviation)===
'''''Running Time: 6:15'''''
This is one of the lesser reworked remixes of "Closer." It adds an interesting loop in the background the consists of what appears to be a bass guitar and a high-pitched drone. At the end it repeats the two lines "Help me get away from myself" and "You get me closer to God".

===Closer (Internal)===
'''''Running Time: 4:15'''''
This remix uses stereo panning in which the phrases "You get me closer to god" and "I want to fuck you like an animal" switch between left and right speaker.

===Closer (Further Away)===
'''''Running Time: 5:45'''''
This remix begins with a significantly modified drumbeat, similar to the drums heard in "[[A Violet Fluid]]." Slowly the song picks up and a sound similar to a lion's roar is heard with the cry "I want to fuck you like an animal." Lyrics are then whispered and vocoded. A loud drum solo features, backed by the looped synth whine from the end of the original, and then the lyrics from the choruses are heard.

===Closer (Thrust)===

This remix didn't make it onto the ''Closer To God'' EP, but can be streamed or downloaded from remix.nin.com. This is essentially a variation on "Closer (Internal)".
