It was the first commercial success Reznor had and recieved wide radio rotation at the time. It has appeared in almost every concert that [[Nine Inch Nails]] has performed since its appearance and has become a staple part of the live set. The [[With Teeth]] concerts usually end with this song.
Though [[Reznor|Trent Reznor]] doesn't dislike the song, he was quite suprised it became as big as it did, especially due to it's relatively easy writing process compared to some of the lesser recognized tracks on the CD ("[[That's What I Get]]" and "[[Kinda I Want To]]" most notably).
The single was released in maxi-single (US) and standard single (UK) formats and do not contain the original album version but rather several remixes of the title track.
Remixes of "[[Terrible Lie]]" are the B-Sides for this single, as well as the two remixes of "[[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]" that appeared on the [[down in it Down In It (halo)|Down In It]] single and a demo that only appears on the Head Like A Hole single itself. The US Maxi version is actually longer in duration than [[Pretty Hate Machine]] while the UK Single is standard size.
On the UK version, there is an (Opal) mix which doesn't appear on the US version. Also the first track, the (Clay) mix which was used for the Head Like A Hole video is mislabeled as the (Slate) mix which is the first track on the US maxi-single but doesn't appear on the UK single version.
The Maxi-Single's disc art reveals the [[BPM]] for [[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]] to be 115 BPM and [[Terrible Lie(song)]]'s to be 88 BPM
On the US version, there's an unlisted 11th track that's a clip from Dance Party USA when [[Nine Inch Nails]] appeared on the shows in which you can hear the hostess(?) shout of a female shouting "Let's hear it for Nine Inch Nails! Woooo! They're GOOD!"
