===The Perfect Drug (Aphrodite)===
'''''Running Time: 6:10(Vinyl version), 5:38 (DJ Aphrodite upload)'''''
This remix is exclusive to the vinyl edition of ''"The Perfect Drug" Versions.'' It's set in a different key than the other remixes and has a fast, electronic beat. As with most of the other remixes, it is light on lyrics, consisting only of "can't keep control/can't keep track," "taking me," and "you are perfect." A CD-quality The track as released in 1997 was mastered at a slower speed. An MP3 file of the track this version was uploaded by Reznor on remix.nin.com.The original, unaltered track was eventually uploaded to Soundcloud by DJ Aphrodite, who stated: "This is the original speed the remix was made at. For the vinyl, [[Nothing Records]] slowed it down to around 160bpm, perhaps to lower the vocals, and at the time the general music loving public were still not used to the speed and energy of Jungle/D&B."

Reznor answered a question about playing "The Perfect Drug" live directly during a 2017 Q&A in Chicago. He said:
<blockquote>"We've tried it. The unsexy answer is it just doesn't sound that good live. And it's hard to sing, and it ends up making me angry, so we don't do it."</blockquote>
