Driven throughout by consistent drum and bass parts, [[Trent Reznor]]'s layered vocals and muted guitars soon join. The higher, melodic verses are followed by lower pitched vocals in the pre-choruses, then higher again as the choruses are sung in falsetto. The choruses also feature a different chord progression played by bass and distorted guitars, similar to the choruses of "[[With Teeth Love Is Not Enough]]." The second chorus and following bridge also feature a synthesizer lead that sounds very similar to a blender, perhaps the song's most notable characteristic. This sound was achieved using a device called the French Connection, which is a CV keyboard controller based on the Ondes Martenot.[https://www.theninhotline.com/archives/articles/manager/display_article.php?id=55] The song ends after two repeated choruses with different lyrics and 16 bars of the verse bassline and drums, which stop together just as they began. ===Sunspots (haloInstrumental)===Released exclusively through Apple Music. ==Live=="Sunspots" was not performed live until 2022, perhaps due to Reznor's fear of straining his voice too much, but eventually made its live debut on [[2022/06/21_London,_England|With TeethJune 21]] at Brixton Academy, London. It had also been performed at soundchecks and rehearsals with vocals. One of those soundchecks can be heard [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtkdJfF8BOo here]. Starting 2013, "Sunspots" was interpolated into the outro of "[[Sanctified]]" by [[Alessandro Cortini]].

== Lyrics ==
Sunspots cast a glare in my eyes Sometimes I forget I'm alive I feel it coming and I've got to get out of its way I hear it calling and I come cause I can't disobey I should not listen and I shouldn't believe But but I do Yes I do [CHORUS:] She turns me on She makes me it real I have to apologize For the way I feel My life, it seems has taken a turn Why in the name of god God would I ever want to return? Peel off our skin we're gonna burn what we were to the ground Fuck in the fire and we'll spread all the ashes around I wanna want to kill away the rest of what's left and I do Yes I do She turns me on [CHORUS] She makes it real I have to apologize For the way I feel And nothing can stop me now There And there is nothing to fear And everything I'd ever want Is inside of here Ooh, I want, I want, I want, I want inside of here Now I just stare into the sun And I see everything I've done I think I could have been someone But I can't stop what has begun When everything is said and done And there is no place left to run I think I used to be someone Now I just stare into the sun{{Succession box| title=[[With Teeth (halo)|With Teeth]]| before=[[Getting Smaller]]| after=[[The Line Begins To Blur]]| track=10}}[[Category:NIN Songs]][[Category:NIN Songs Never Played Live]]
