}}'''"Maybe Just Once"''' is an early [[Nine Inch Nails]] demo. It is believed to be one of the demos [[Trent Reznor]] sent to record labels to get signed before ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]]''.

==Appearances==

===Other===

*''[[Purest Feeling (halo)|Purest Feeling]]''

==Versions==

~~Coming soon~~===Maybe Just Once===This is the only version. It has a somewhat high-sheen, late 80s synthpop sound that is not characteristic of NIN. It features a highly percussive synth sound, similar to that on the outro of "[[That's What I Get]]". The intro uses a [[samples|sample]] of dialog from the film ''Diner''.

==Live==

~~Coming soon~~"Maybe Just Once" has not been performed live since the [[VIVIsectVI Tour]].

==Lyrics==

Mickey Rourke (Boogie) and Ellen Barkin (Beth) in ''Diner'' (1982)

"...when we were datin', did you care for me?"

"Sure, I did."

"You know, I don't mean just cause you could do stuff to me...but, but because you really cared?"

"Of course, Beth. I mean...there was plenty of girls around for a quick pop...

...if that's what I wanted...but I got to tell you...you were good."

I can't believe that what I fear is finally happening to me

Make it hurt

Oh

"He sat down on this bed and he said, "'Christ, what the hell do you think this place is?" ' You know, he just couldn't believe it! And I said, "'I don't know but it sure is something different.'"

So go ahead

What's coming to me
