Changes

This remix mostly consists of manipulations of the drum loop, though it also loops several of the guitar parts toward the end, which ascend in tempo until crashing thunderously. It also contains [[samples]] from the 1951 musical film ''ShowboatShow Boat'' and some psychedelic narration by Timothy Leary. Interestingly, [[Skinny Puppy]] had used the same Leary samples on their song "Left Handshake," but were forced to remove the song from their ''Last Rights'' album due to clearance issues. "Fist Fuck" was heard in the film ''Resident Evil,'' in the scene where Alice (Milla Jovovitch) fights the zombie dogs.

In 1992 the [[Nine Inch Nails music videos|music video]] for "Wish" premiered. It was directed by [[Peter Christopherson]], who also directed "March Of The Pigs" and the infamous ''[[Broken Movie]].'' Oddly enough, "Wish" bears a strong resemblance to the video for "Rock You Like A Hurricane" by The Scorpions. The video was filmed in November 1992.

The video features the band (Reznor, [[Richard Patrick]], [[James Woolley]] and [[Chris Vrenna]]) performing in a rather ornate cage. Outside of the cage is a mob that seems determined to get into the cage and attack the band. The finale of the video shows the mob accosting the band through the bars, grabbing at them and attempting to bind them. Ultimately, they break through the chain keeping the band locked inside and storm in, wielding baseball bats and other crude weapons. MTV felt that the ending scene was too violent and alternate footage was used for network airplay. The imagery of the band in a cage was previously used in the "[[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]]" video.
