Customer Reviews Not too sure ..... But the only thing new that comes with this single is . Now I love nine inch nails like it was my bread and butter. . . . . the live version of Love Is Not Enough. All other tracks including the 'ONLY' video can be found on different places (Like on the official NIN website, well for the video that is) But if you must have all the 'Halos' Then this is another product that you must know. Sadly enough not for the content, but for the collection. . . . . yeah. Not as described by Amazon I would recommend not buying this CD if you actually want the songs listed on the detail by Amazon. Another light-weight single from "With Teeth" I picked it up and was pretty disappointed. Only", the second single from "With Teeth", has something in common with its predecessor-- its of limited value. The single itself, "Only", isn't one of the ones I particularly enjoy on the album-- its got a nice enough funky bass line and drum beat, but Reznor's sing-speak "Down In It" styled vocal grates and the piece doesn't particularly hold my interest. Certainly it lacks the immediacy of "Down In It", and I'm generally inclined to want Reznor to look forward, not backward. The b-sides aren't much better-- the DFA mix of "The Hand That Feeds" is yet another remix, this one pretty much a full techno mix. It's quite different, replete with an odd panting sample that gets somewhat irritating as the piece never ends (it rambles on for well over seven minutes). The live version of "Love is Not Enough" is the only saving grace on the single-- while its not one of the better songs on the record, its decent enough, and live it got bigger. The arrangement is the same, but its more direct and in your face. For the casual listener, skip this one. The fan will be buying it regardless of what I say, but it's in line with the recent singles, not the older (and superior) ones. .
