I always thought of him as an INTP, but I also read that he might be an INTJ.
Could anyone enlighten me? I'm not very good at typing real persons.

Either INFP or INTJ. Definitely N and definitely an Fi user.

Not a chance at INTP, though, as INTPs are extremely unlikely to be capable of expressing that amount of depth of feeling so clearly.

I'd lean toward INFP.

An INTJ would not have come up with the video for Closer. I might guess INFP.

I'm not saying he's INTP, I don't really think he is, but I've written (bad) lyrics like Reznor's. Depth of feeling indeed.

I agree with the whole he's a INFP, but those lyrics might sound like a T talking about reppressed emotions.

I agree with Kora, and I say that he must be judged as a man, not as an artist. His art could have come from several different perspectives.

Now that you say that... How would be Ti lyrics?

First of all, to hell with functions. Now that that's settled...

INTPs can have overpowering emotions take control of their lives. When put into words, it can come out something like NIN lyrics. Do you disagree?

I agree because I'm INTP and I have overpowering emotions. And NIN lyrics are very meaningful to me.

Based on my memory of the interviews I read in the 90s I would say ISFP. What makes you guys say N?

His new lyrics are horrible, like anything after 2004.

But listen to The Downward Spiral -- amazing lyrics, totally Fi and N (probably Ne in the grips of Fi, but I'm still not 100% sure on that).

(I could easily see an INTP writing the new lyrics; anyone could write them.)

The Downward Spiral. NF to the max.

He's an NF, either an INFP or an ENFP.

Those who think he is an NT seriously have NEVER payed any close attention to his lyrics.

He has some SERIOUS Fi coursing through his veins!

:wub:

Yeah, I think he's introverted, though, as he is more focused than an ENFP would be. His Fi holds the reigns on Ne.

"Kinda like a cloud, I was up, way up in the sky..." Could be me or an INFP.
