===Sin (Radio Edit)==='''''Running Time: 3:19''''' Available on a promotional-only "special DJ edit" UK vinyl pressing. It was also widely circulated on the ''Demos & Remixes'' bootleg. ===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.
===Sin (''And All That Could Have Been'')===
==Live==
The song's intro seems to be performed differently by every [[NIN ]] keyboardist. For example, [[Danny Lohner]] in the [[Woodstock '94]] performance is seen playing an additional melody to the intro. During the [[Fragility]] tour, [[Charlie Clouser]] used a theremin before the guitar intro is played, while [[Alessandro Cortini]]'s performance of the intro is a tad closer to the original. Other than that, the rest of the song is performed closely to the album version in most live performances, though when [[Jeordie White]] played the song, he played its harmonic progression on bass guitar rather than the keyboards used in most other live arrangements. The persistent high-pitched percussion loop from the "Long", "Short" and "Dub" mixes is also usually present in the live iterations.
