After being at what might be the last concert in Paris for NIN, and learning that he had been somehow influenced by Queen, I managed to hear those two tracks:

cover of Get Down Make Love, on Pretty Hate Machine's last extract (Sin)
and a bootleg of Stone Cold Crazy, re-produced by Trent Reznor:
What do you think?
cheers!

Trent has been covering GDML for nearly 20 years. Not my cup of tea but it's pretty solid.

My wife and I were lucky enough to be at their San Diego, CA, show where Reznor joined support act Street Sweeper Social Club (who are fast becoming one of my favorite bands, btw) onstage for a rocking cover of MC5's "Kick Out the Jams". Without question, it was the highlight of an otherwise disappointing evening, with technical troubles shortening NIN's set and Perry Farrell of Jane's Addiction doing his best Freddie Mercury impression all night long (which, it turned out, wasn't very good).
Moral of the story, Reznor has a surprisingly good voice for straightforward rock, even though he's gained fame for his industrial metal.

Went to see NIN in Amsterdam last week. Very energetic concert.
I do like the Get Down Make Love cover.
I was hoping Trent would do it at the Amsterdam gig...(he didn't)

I think you should come back in ten years with a "Who the hell is Paul Rodgers?" thread....

When NIN gets elected into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, there I will be shaking my head thinking "about bloody time".
They take the hardest Queen song ever written and play it better than Queen.

FYI: NIN also used a sample of Body Language in the 'copper' remix of Head Like A Hole (Halo three)
