Being a staple NIN song with its high energy segued by two piano breakdowns, there is a live performance video of ===UK version======= Disc 1 ====# "March of the Of The Pigs" on each of their live releases(clean version) – 2: ''[[Closure ]]'', ''[[And 54# "All that Could Have Been]]'', and ''[[Beside You in Time]]''. In the live set, the band extends the song by including an amped up version of "All The Pigs, All Lined Up" at the end of every performance. Also in most(?) performances in the pre-With Teeth eras, the songs starts with the same high pitched squeal it does in the performance video for the song. Since the start of the – 7:25# "A Violet Fluid" – 1:03# "[[Big Man With TeethA Gun]] tour, the song now starts with a synth line that matches the one played behind the second set of measures for the song originally (this section now completely omitted from the song, the guitars coming in completely along with they synth after the first drum run through.)" – 1:36

*March of the Pigs==Artwork==*On his website[[The Downward Spiral]http://www.russellmills.com/mills/installations/committere.html]*, [[Closer To God]]*[[Closure]]*[[And All That Could Have Been]]*[[Beside You In TimeRussell Mills]]detailed the ideas and materials that went into the painting (titled "The Possible Slow Fuse") used for the cover:
==Versions==<blockquote>"This piece came out of my reading about the lives of the early Christians in Roman times. One of the many ways that the Romans subjugated the Christians, apart from forcing them to live in the ghetto that was the Catacombs, was to forbid them to wear any emblems or jewellery of religious iconography or idolatry. However the Christians developed an ingenious method of subverting this ruling by collecting rose petals, hardening them in candle smoke and threading 165 to make, what looked to the Romans like cheap jewellery, which held no significance, no meaning and no threat. These were in fact the first Rosary beads. The Latin - Sub Rosa, which literally means ''under the rose'', has also come to mean ''in secret''. I admired this act of quiet, non-violent subversion and felt it to be a relevant metaphor for the 5 track single ''March of the Pigs''. The work is made of plaster, acrylics, oils, gold leaf, metal and smoked rose petals on a wooden panel."</blockquote>
*March The inner cover of the Pigs*March US version and the disc art of the Pigs UK version features a rolled-up millipede, an image that was also used as the disc art for ''The Downward Spiral''. The master image from which these images were made was used for the cover of ''[[Closer To God (Cleanhalo)*All The Pigs, All Lined Up*March of the Fuckheads - not-confirmed?|Closer To God]]''.
