The acoustic, unfiltered version of the vocals really showcases Manson's unique gravel and whispers...its like his soul is trying to escape his body and he's internally struggling to keep it there....that's such a unique but iconic sound and this remix just highlights it even more...
Only if he could. He tried with sweet dreams it sucked terribly. He's way washed up now. Love him. This album was his prime genius but he was in love then it got shattered. Seen him live a month ago or so terrible was like this isn't manson I understand his dad passed and shit. Fuck manson your better then this and the school shootings
Man, feels weird coming back to these old videos that I've been watching/listening to for years. Been here since a decade ago. Returning over gloom. Very specific memories return..
Marilyn Manson will never truly know the lasting effect his music has had on my life. Ive met him a few times after shows and once we talked for bout 4 hours we lost track of time (he left a hour late for his next show). You ever just meet a person who you just know what they been through cause you been there done that. I'm a recovering addict of a few things and he was the 1st person not to pass judgement and I just knew form 30 mins. into convo that he was the 1st person since addiction to really get me..Love this version of the song better than the original .
I hear ya man. I envy you so much being able to meet this wonderful human. His music helped me through a lot of hard times. Mechanical Animals will always be my saving grace. The lyrics are just so relatable and powerful.
Honestly, the whole album was relevant to my life (Mechanical Animals). Between struggling with acceptance from others, or substance abuse... even being released from a toxic relationship. I can identify with this album more than any of his others. Favorite song from this album is the Speed of Pain.
Jared Brinkman yes! Mechanical Animals is fucking amazing, this and Antichrist are my favorite records of ALL TIME. I can relate to it too, and it's so beautiful, meaningful, magical, outta this world! My favorite song is Disassociative! But The Speed Of Pain & The Last Day On Earth are close too, every song on this album is fucking brilliant!
When those months come around when my depression really kicks in I listen to this song and it makes me feel worse but at the same time it kind of cleanses me not because it makes me see that I'm not the only person who feels this way but because it makes me realize that drugs won't save me whether they will make me numb, dumb or kill me its a very difficult feeling to explain.
Alot of people don't understand a comment like that but I agree with you.🙃 Actually there was quite a few songs during the darker days of my life. I truly hope you're doing well my friend!👍🙃 My life isn't Great right now but I'm alot happier than I was & that's what life is all about, at the end of the day, all we got is our feelings.🤔👍🙃
@@keithnain3048 The people who understand, like yourself, are who my comment is intended for. Thank you for sharing your experience with me. It's crucial for our species to be able to simply help each other by experience's of others. God bless you. I'm better now, and more mentally prepared for the rest of this journey. Love 👊❤️
I know exactly what you mean. Song like this and now these comments let us all know that we aren’t alone. Even on the darkest nights, the sun will eventually rise 😊
Много ли тут людей, что пришли после 7 дней лета?) БЛ невероятен, раз дал такую игру и возможность творить свою историю) А хорошая музыка только лучше сделает эту историю)
I been covering Manson songs acoustic for pretty much 16 years now and honestly like, I think A LOT of his songs sound amazing stripped down and just done like that. I would absolutely LOVE an all acoustic Manson album.
Damn. Honestly never knew this version existed, and it's been almost 22 yrs since MA released, and I adopted this screen name. He really is a poet of our time.
I have been listening to marilyn manson since I was 13 and I'm 35 now. I have a portrait of him tattooed over my entire back he is my saviour and my idol
This has been one of faves since I was a teenager nearly 20 years ago, when I started following Manson. Now to love him even more, he's the sensational Say 10 music & lyrical Master of Rock!
who the fuck cares if this is metal or not? just enjoy the fuckin music jesus... why do peopkle waste time by arguing about music genres on the internet
Vjekoslav Fučkan If you really didn't care you would not have forced "it's shock rock or industrial rock" in your comment. Usually people who say "I dont care what other people think" are desperately wanting people to think they don't care what other people think. :p
KnockCZ same reason any of us respond, we think our voice matters, despite them just being buried amongst all the other crazy fuckers who thought the same damn thing.
Manson has been my go to since the 90's. I've been suicidal for the last 23 years. Every day feeling like im worse off than the next, promising myself tonight will be the end. Whenever I pick up any manson creation, be it art or music I instantly feel better, and even worse. The feeling is hard to explain, but I know to this day, if I pick up a razor or a rope, my next move is RU-vid manson videos cause that'll cause me to drop anything and just blend with the music. I accredit marilyn Manson with saving my life, time and time again.
Just a stranger online hoping you're still doing well. I know the feeling as many others have mentioned on their responses, I just want you to know that I hope you're well and are always able to life yourself from that feeling. I know it feels like a losing battle, it doesn't have to be. Anyway, like I said, hope you're okay and well. Take care. -Stranger
It's been six years since I discovered manson. Still I fall in love a little more each time I listen to this song. something about it makes me see things I have not found in any other song.
This song forever makes my skin tingle and brings a tear to my eye. Definately in my top 5 favourite songs by Marilyn Manson and in my top 10 Favourite songs of ALL time. Acoustic however has just blown my mind the word beautiful doesnt even begin to describe this sound.
Manson's music has had a huge impact on my life, I was at a low point in 99 and discovered his music,i walked past a stall at camden market in London and heard the drums of beautiful people, i turned back and this goth girl was on the stall, i asked who it was and bought antichrist superstar. The whole album gave me the fuck you attitude to the people who trying to put me down.
This song reflects a truth that impacts my heart because I know of two people that died from drug overdoses.No matter how much they tried to medicate themselves they could never get rid of their pain and as a result it caused their demise. Marilyn Manson is right when he says that all the drugs in this world won't save you from yourself. Please think about it. I love this song and cry when I hear it.
This was beautifully done. The original version was good it helped me release emotion. This version however made me cry it touched a part of me that no song could do. The guitar had so much feeling. On loudspeaker i could hear how crisp of sound coming off the strings. Mansons voice in combination made this collaboration perfect. Thank you for creating music that touches the soul. Its rare to find.
J’adore ce morceau ,sa voix unique ..🖤magnifique ..j’écoute encore et encore depuis tant de temps ..mais je ne m’en lasserai jamais de ce morceau ..et de lui 😌🖤
Verse 1] There's something cold and blank Behind her smile She's standing on an overpass In her miracle mile [Pre-Chorus: Coma] "You were from a perfect world A world that threw me away, today Today, to run away" [Chorus] A pill to make you numb, a pill to make you dumb A pill to make you anybody else But all the drugs in this world Won't save her from herself [Verse 2] Her mouth was an empty cut And she was waiting to fall Just bleeding like a polaroid That lost all her dolls [Pre-Chorus: Coma] "You were from a perfect world A world that threw me away, today Today, to run away" Chorus] A pill to make you numb, a pill to make you dumb A pill to make you anybody else But all the drugs in this world Won't save her from herself
Yes this song says so much for so many of us. And by us I mean fans that are also addicts or former addicts. It also means so much more for so so many others going through the deep dark pits of hell or as they call it "life" bit everyone has problems. Not everyone deals with them the same. Thanks Manson, your still on top of your game. Keep em coming.....
This was amazing...... LIVE ...... up front... in a little revenue in Toronto 2 years ago..... forgot with my boyfriend at the time this was the song at the end of the set... until he found a paper from the back stage with list of songs... .... Drugs ..... the power. I feel for those that can not just let go......may you all finally find peace....
I had a cousin die that I never met that died of an overdose and this song is so fitting, considering that one of my best friends died of an overdose. The point being that many people die from overdoses and each and every one of them is a very sad story. Depression is real.
This version claws at what is left of my twisted mind , ,large spindley fingers reaching inside my chest to squeeze and drain all that is left of a heart I once thought I had. Dying inside ,the facade for the rest. But all the drugs in this world,can't save her from herself ☠️ Masterpiece of intense pain❤️🖤🖤❤️☠️
Incredible song love it. Use to dabble with drugs nine years ago and one day woke up and said i need to stop before i get addicted to two substances that i really liked and did that just fucking quit. Continued to drink though but not every day, so after ten years of drinking nearly every weekend and days in between I've decided to make a change. If you don't care about this then great good for you i don't expect you to. I am just typing this to look back on it to see if i was successful in beating my one remaining demon from my past.
I wish he would release all his major hits from throughout his career on single acoustic only album!! That’d be amazing! I think he sounds better in these acoustic versions than the actual album hits.
