Who mentioned Nine Inch Nails remake of Queen's "Get Down Make Love"?
Damn that song is fricking awesome - about 200% better than Queen's version and btw, Queen is my #2 favorite band of all time.

2. Wasn't me, but... what CD is it on? How can I get it? Help!
Hmmm. I have all his CDs but somehow I feel I have heard it before; maybe it was one of those remix CDs. On the same note: I love his remake of Adam Ant's "Physical".

6. It's on the CD-Single "Sin"
Edited on Fri Apr-29-05 05:59 PM by LynneSin
Someone mentioned it to me and I found it on my Rhapsody. NIN brought this song to life in a way that Queen never did. I mean the concept and lyrics of GDML was incredible but I always thought it was missing a lil something-something - it was never one of my more favorite songs. But the way NIN performs the song it's like the song is fucking ALIVE!!!

Here's a link to the CD and it has a sample of the song on it:

13. Yep, I knew I had heard it before & liked it better than the original
I had an old boyfriend who turned me on to NIN & he used to mix tapes (showing my age?) for me & that must have been on one of them. I guess I'll have to try out that Rhapsody thingie before I dump Comcast.

7. I was about to say "No way"
to your "200% better" comment until you said Queen is one of your favorite bands... now I have to hear NIN's version of the song. I've never heard it. I also love Queen...

9. Favorite? Hell if Led Zeppelin never existed it would be the favorite
That's how much I adore Queen, but I'm more of a fan of their old music. After Jazz it was almost pick and choose what was good and what was too popish like

10. I don't know
All I heard is that short sample on Amazon. It's a really bad loop of some woman moaning in extasy and kindof silly, over-the-top throbbing chords. From that sample, it sounds like he pounded all the subtlety and fun out of it. Took it way too literally and beat it to death. But that's just from that little sample, so Ireally can't judge until I hear the whole song (which I'd love to hear but can't find on iTunes or anywhere). I'd still say I like the original better.

11. That's a bad clip
If you read those reviews the one central comment that everyone made is the only reason to own the CD is for "Get Down Make Love" I wish I had a way of uploading it to DU because I would share the whole song with you if I could

12. I would love that
Because it's something I'd really love to hear (and I do like NIN). I'll keep looking, maybe even buy the out-of-print cd -- and I'll re-post if I ever get to hear it.

15. OMG - I haven't heard that since High School!
Me and my girlfriends used to sing along and think we were soooo naughty! I probably still have it on a mix tape in my basement!
