Unpopular opinion: I think “Hurt” itself is overrated, and everyone just likes it because it happened to become one of the hit songs off the Downward Spiral. I think songs like Mr. Self Destruct and Eraser are what you really want if you want a display of raw, fucked up emotions.

The variants of Mr Self Destruction on Further Down the Spiral are even better all together.
But I have to disagree about Hurt, it is as good as they say it is. I play the NIN version on guitar and it gives me goosebumps.
For me, it’d be Somewhat Damaged, but mainly because it echoes some personal shit.
LOVE MrSelfDestruct. But, in the right mood, hurt is an atom bomb.
