I can never understand why people find Closer so sexy. It's a horrible song! It's basically about someone who despises themself so much the only way to forget their pain and insecurities is through sex. Well that, or the other theory that it's about sexual abuse.
I guess I'll put it down to the fact that most people just listen to the throbbing rhythm track and the ''I wanna **** you like an animal'' line rather than the song itself.
I agree with Deathblow about Closer, though I DO like the song... IMO people take it too literally. Nobody says that "Prison Sex" is a filthy song, because despite the fact it talks about a sexual act, that's not what it's about. The songs aren't about the same thing, but the same idea of not taking them at surface value applies.

NIN "The becoming" is pretty filthy as the whole song is set to repeated screeches of a human in pain. I would also say NIN "Closer" "Reptile" and Eyedea & Abilities "Two Men and a Lady".
Again, I find Reptile way too creepy and gross to be sexy. The metaphors in that song are just plain gruesome.
If I had to pick one NIN song to be all filthy and what not, I'd probably say Sanctified.
