==="Crystal Japan" resemblance===
[[Trent Reznor]] has been accused of ripping off the theme of "A Warm Place" from David Bowie's 1980 single "Crystal Japan". He did state that Bowie's album ''Low'' (1977) had the biggest influence in the making of ''The Downward Spiral,''[httphttps://9inchnailswww.theninhotline.com/archives/articles/articles.php?id=7display/557] though ''Low'' does not contain "Crystal Japan." Some have claimed that what is heard is deceiving; that from a musical theory point of view, there exist significant differences between the structures of the two melodies.
