marilyn manson
Have I ever mentioned how much I like Marilyn Manson? I kind of avoided him for many years because I thought he was a bit of joke, which he still is in some ways, even though I must admit that I was nearly tempted over to the dark side by the right-wing fervour of the anti-Marilyn lot in the US. I was finally persuaded to buy one of his albums after his cover of Tainted Love was a big hit in the UK, and I imagine in lots of other places too. I just loved the over-the-topness of it all. I bought The Golden Age of Grotesque and it has very quickly become one of my most played albums. I think the main reason I didn't really fancy him in the beginning was that I thought his nilism was serious. For some strange reason, every description of him always misses out just clever and knowing his music is, and I guess, at different levels, quite funny. If you put his image to one side for a moment, he just makes great rock music. I think this track kind of sums up for me what I like about him: it's called Slutgarden.
I also love the fact that in the real world he is called Brian and he is getting married soon. Quite sweet really. It reminds me a bit of the fella from Slipnot who in an interview in NME said that if he hadn't been a rock star then he would have liked to have been a history teacher.
UPDATE: Apologies for the size of the file, I didn't check it before posting.

He's to this generation what Alice Cooper was to mine (and both are very very smart men).

I coudlnt' agree with you more. Marylin Manson does make some really good rock music...He's a little too freaky to watch, but music is not supposed to be watched anyway.
And yes! He is very smart. I've always liked what he has to say. :)

That's exactly what Mr McMuffin said, Retrogirl. Great minds at work, well yours is-well done on your test results.
Nice to see you here, Mrs J. I do hope you haven't been followed by the undesirables...do me a favour and take a quick look behind you to check!
