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.
