no life

[StaticInMyHead]

Hello all. I have not been around for a while so I appologize for questioning old news. I was scanning the tv, since it is so freaking hot out it only seemed right to turn up the ac and zone out for a while. We got to CNN and Larry King's coverage of the bridge collapse. So my husband goes hey that crapola theme music sounds kinda like NIN Hurt. Then he goes on to tell me about this piano compilation of NIN songs. Curious enough, I check amazon and to my surprise he was right. What was more shocking was this same guy did an Elliott compilation.

So to get to the question part, they list a song 'no life'. Now neither of us can make this song out from the sample and my tiny laptop speaker, but I have no idea what 'no life' is. Please help me so I can stop thinking about it.

PS
does anyone even like these piano renditions? It made my left eye start twitching uncontrolably

what was the name of the Elliott version?

i'm pretty sure you're talking about christopher o'riley. he's a great guy and posts here occasionally. the song 'no life' on his compilation is indeed an elliott song -- it's just not on any actual studio releases. i'm sure some nice person here can upload it for you. i actually don't have it. :(

thanks standinaround, my husband is sitting besides me and he can believe we got an answer so fast. (No offense to this o'riley guy, I think these things initially rub some people the wrong way at first.)

If anyone does have this song, it would be beyond great to hear it, because I can't figure out which one it is, if I have even heard it at all.

I'd upload it, but i don't know how and someone else can probably do it faster and easier. Just a warning though, the quality is just kind of... Okay. not great. But it's a good song.
