Nine Inch Nails returned to the stage after a three year hiatus last night in Bakersfield, California, and absolutely killed more. More interestingly, the band performed a cover of David Bowie's "I Can't Give Everything Away" from Bowie's final album Blackstar, and you could've heard that arrangement months ago.
Back in January, a mystery account named ThisIsTheNumberNineteen uploaded a remix of the track, and is identical to the one performed by Nine Inch Nails in Bakersfield. The only real difference is the remix just has Bowie's vocals, while the live performance is both Trent Reznor and Bowie.
Also, I wonder if the account name ThisIsTheNumberNineteen had anything to do with the fact that the show was to take place on July 19? Reznor seems like a man of method, and who'd absolutely do that. Anyway, check out the remix and live performances below!
