}}'''"Sin"''' is the seventh track on the 1989 release ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]].'' Remixes were featured on the ''[[Sin (halo)|Sin]]'' single along with a B-side (a cover of Queen's "[[Get Down, Make Love]]"). The song is often amped up when played live, usually featured at the beginning of setlists.
===Sin===
This is the original album version from ''Pretty Hate Machine.'' The loud cry from the end of "[[Kinda I Want To]]" segues into the track as the hisses jump back and forth between the left and right audio channels, stereo panning being a prominent feature of the track. The song itself is very beat driven with much synthesized layering and uses the lyrics as the melody for most of the song, lacking any real "lead" parts. It's also notable for its unique sample of a loud whistling, which is most likely a sped up sample of a saxophone.

*Remix: Adrian Sherwood, Keith LeBlanc
===Sin (Demo - Martin Atkins tape)===
'''''Running Time: 4:06'''''
A demo for "Sin" does exist, but it has only leaked in short clips on the internet. It exists on a cassette tape handed out by Reznor to important figures. This cassette is also in the possession of [[Martin Atkins]], who has allowed fans to hear excerpts.
All remixes of Sin are remixes of the demo, which was never released.
