Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Truly a "single"
The Day the World Went Away is just one of several examples in the Nine Inch Nails collection of Halos that is really only purchasable for either its collector's value or for a single, outstanding track. Here, that track is "The Day the World Went Away (Quiet)", a solid remix of the song that appears originally on The Fragile. The track begins quietly and with newly recorded vocals up to its standard form, then drops off and spends the last several minutes in an even quieter setting, in a bit of ... Read More
Rating:  - One of the best The Fragile singles
This single is great you get

the day the world went away [quiet]
unlike most remixes, the day the world went away [quiet] has different lyrics, and it's much better then the original, taking all of the cool guitars out and replacing them with paino, even showing more sympathy for the death of Trent's Grandmother.
Rating: - Quite nice preview of one of the greatest albums ever
If you're collecting NIN, you may have heard some of this already. That's because for most part, two-thirds of these tracks ended up on "The Fragile". Yes, they are somewhat different, but that'd be my reason for convincing someone to get this. It is quite cheap, even at used places, so that's also a plus.
The original "Day" is a great track which is kind of like My Bloody Valentine in structure. I really love the instrumental parts, even the sad-sounding verses. I also like the bridge, ... Read More
Rating: - Trent is Proud of TDTWWA, I am too
TDTWWA is obviously a song that Trent was (is) very proud of, and I am thankful that I am one of the fans that was able to catch this and appreciate it. How else do you explain the fact that he went through the hassle of making six versions of this song???!? That's right: Single, Album, Quiet, Porter Ricks, Live & Acoustic (Halo 17, anyone?). Add to this the fact that Acoustic was first findable as a rough mix bootleg on Napster (it was titled "Acoustic in Chicago", I would have loved to have ... Read More
Rating:  - Mostly good material, but little value added.
"The Day the World Went Away" was the leadoff single from "The Fragile" and is of minimal value to all but collectors. Two of the tracks on this are taken straight from "The Fragile" (with small adjustments, one's slightly shorter, one has some pointless crowd noise dubbed in), with the third (a remix) also being available on part two of the "We're In This Together" singles.
But looking at the songs themselves-- "The Day The World Went Away" is fantastic-- bleak, moody, with a great loud ... Read More
