The single was released in In 1993, on the now defunct Prodigy message boards, Trent Reznor made the following comment about the circumstances of the maxi-single (US) and standard single (UK) formats and do not contain the original album version but rather several remixes of the title track.release:

Remixes of "[[Terrible Lie]]" are <blockquote>Also in case anybody was wondering, the B-Sides for this 'down in it' single, as well as the two remixes of "[[Down In It was only going to be released on vinyl (songbecause my old record label sucks)|Down In It]]" that appeared so i put most of it on the 'head like ahole'[[Down In It single (halowhich obviously IS on CD)|Down In It]]- then the greedy record label releases 'd.i.i.' single and a demo that only appears on the ''Head Like A Hole'' single itselfCD which is quite redundant. Sorry if you feel ripped off. The US Maxi version is actually longer in duration than ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]http://www.theninhotline.net/archives/articles/display/327]'' while the UK Single is standard size.</blockquote>

On the US version, there's an unlisted bonus track featuring a clip of Heather "Princess" Day from Dance Party USA shouting "Let's hear it for Nine Inch Nails! Woooo! They're GOOD!"
