}}'''"Dead Souls"''' is a cover of a [[Joy Division]] song, frequently played live. It appeared in the 1994 film ''The Crow'' and was released on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crow_%28album%29 its soundtrack]. It was also the tenth track (before "[[A Warm Place]]") on the Japanese version of ''[[The Downward Spiral (halo)|The Downward Spiral]].'' In 2004, it was included as the fifth track on the second disc of the 10th anniversary ''The Downward Spiral Deluxe Edition.'' While this song appears on ''[[The Definitive NIN - The Singles]]'', it was never released as a single or promo.
The Joy Division original was recorded in 1979 and released on their compilation album ''Still.'' In commentary for ''The Crow'' with producer and musical supervisor Jeff Most, it is revealed that [[Nine Inch Nails]] were originally supposed to perform in the film instead of My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult. "Dead Souls" and NIN were also not the original choices for the Joy Division cover, as New Order were asked to record a new version of "Love Will Tear Us Apart".[https://post-punk.com/the-crow-soundtrack/]
