[Gotta Get:] Closer
MaxwellNIN
You let me violate you
You let me desecrate you
Sure enough I'll liberate you
I want to do you and emenate you

Everybody say, help me
With your soul, your mind your body
Tell me baby
Help me
Do you wanna come back home
So we can do the freaky
Help me, oh help me clear your soul
Help me get away from myself
So bad, I want ya to

Ooh baby can't help myself
Gotta get closer(ooh oh suga')
Ooh ooh baby can't help myself
Gotta get closer

I wanna love you like an animal
I wanna love you from inside
I wanna love you like an animal
You give me reason to live

you let me violate you
you let me desecrate you
you let me penetrate you
you let me complicate you

(help me)
i broke apart my insides
(help me)
i've got no soul to sell
(help me)
the only thing that works for me
help me get away

i wanna fuck you
i wanna taste you
i wanna feel you
i wanna be you
just like an animal

Yes, I'm bored. And like most bored people, I'm hand-crafting HTML tables.

Ok, maybe not most. . .

Interesting. Now which one came first? The other could be a definite candidate for plagiarism.

Ursula, the Nine Inch Nails version came first; Maxwell's version is more or less a cover.

Emphasis on "more or less."

Maxwell did an amazing performance of that song as his encore when he played Bimbo's in S.F. about six years ago. Now it's as if both versions play in my head whenever I hear either one.

You get that too, huh?

Until Ursula asked (and this probably isn't what you meant, actually), hadn't really thought that there'd be people aware of one version but not the other. . .
