Released on several bootlegs (such as [[Purest Feeling II]] and Halo 00), this This live soundboard recording of the song seems to be sourced is from a live Pigface Nine Inch Nails performance in which Reznor joined at an unknown date, likely from the [[Sin_Tour|Sin]] or [[Hate_Tour|Hate]] tours. It was originally released on vocalsthe [http://www. Musicallydiscogs.com/Various-TVT-Sampler-Summer-1991/release/1563615 TVT Sampler Summer 1991] cassette, but as that was a promo with limited distribution, it is very close to the Nine Inch Nails version of was popularized in the song, but is distinguished from an actual NIN live recording fanbase by its inclusion on the bridge[[Halo 00]] and, which retains the consistent funk beat later, [[Demos and layers a harmonized guitar melody on top. This stands in marked contrast to the quiet buildup of the bridge in the NIN versionRemixes]] bootlegs.

}}'''"Suck"''' is the second hidden track on 1992's ''[[Broken]]'' EP. Originally packaged with "[[Physical]]" on a Mini CD sold with the EP, it was later incorporated onto the EP as a hidden track after allegations that some music stores were removing the Mini CD and selling it separately. "Suck" is track 99 on ''Broken'' while "Physical" is track 98.
"Suck" was originally written and performed by Pigface, a band lead by [[Martin Atkins ]] and featuring [[Trent Reznor]] as well as many other notable Industrial industrial musicians. Other notable singers of the song within Pigface include Nivek Ogre of [[Skinny Puppy]], who even shared the song as a duet with Reznor. Since 1994, it has become one of the regular songs played by [[Nine Inch Nails]].
According to a previously unreleased interview Reznor did with ''Melody Maker'' magazine, "Suck" was supposed to be a "tongue-in-cheek" cover.
===Throw This Away===
'''''Running Time: 4:13'''''
This minimalist remix, on ''Fixed,'' contains elements from both "[[Last]]" and "Suck." Opening with bubbling synthesizer loops, it mostly consists of the bass riff from the middle of "Suck," which is repeated throughout the track. Layered below it are various quiet vocal samples from both songs. Eventually, the drum beat featured at the very end of the original bridge in "Suck" is looped and fades in, eventually segueing directly into the ending of Butch Vig's mix of "Last."
====Song Credits====
===Suck (Live)===
===Suck (''And All That Could Have Been'')===
This live version is similar to the album version, but the ending is shortened, with Reznor shouting "Suck!" repeatedly rather than singing the song's final lyrics or returning to the verse beat and bassline. Also, the line "I'm Jesus Christ on ecstasy", Trent changes to "I'm Jesus fuck on ecstasy".
==Live==
Once I could see now I am blind
Don't want the dreams you try to sell
This disease I give it to myself
How does it feel?
I get too tight I come undone
I bow my head to confess
Runs up my arm till I'm on track
Itches the skin right off my back
Suck suck suck
I feel am so dirty on the inside
I am so dirty on the inside
