"Memorabilia" is a Soft Cell cover that appears as the fifth track on Closer To God. The original appears on the Soft Cell album Non Stop Ecstatic Dancing. Other nods to Soft Cell's influence on NIN include the names of "Mr. Self Destruct" and its remixes, and the incomplete or simply unreleased cover of "Sex Dwarf." It contains audio samples that include a prank phone sex call and other samples that seem to have come from pornographic sources. Video of the group listening to the prank call can be seen on the DVD version of Closure.
