On the CD and cassette versions of ''The Fragile,'' the pregap of "Please" uses the introduction of this song as a segue from "[[The Mark Has Been Made]]."
In a question and answer session from 2000[http://www.nin-pages.de/chat_spin_21_11_00.htm], [[Trent Reznor]] stated the following was stated about the song:
<blockquote><p>'''ofredearth''': "I noticed on the '"10 Miles High (version)' " off of ''Things Falling Apart'', the intro to the song is also on ''The Fragile'', actually played backwards where we hear '"I'm getting closer...' " what was the purpose of '"hiding' " it into ''The Fragile'' like that and exposing it in the new album?"</p> <brp>Trent '''Reznor''': "'10 Miles High' " was a full song that had three completely different sets of lyrics and choruses during the course of its life span. When it came time to put ''The Fragile'' together, and decide what was gonna get kept, that song took a bullet. But we left a little reminder of it on there, and we put one of the versions on the vinyl version of ''The Fragile''. There are other versions with varying degrees of embarrassing lyrics that are floating around the vaults here."</p></blockquote>
