@jamesswisher1234 actually this song is by German composer named Kurt Weil (from an opera he wrote-"Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny"). Jim Morrison was trying to pull off him. The song is sung by a prostitute in the opera- It's really funny how many male popular artists sang it and made it their own.
I'm not really a Manson fan, but I'm glad he put his own spin on the song. So many covers from different bands that just sound like the original bore me.
Plus he's paying tribute to the original so shut up about this being disrespectful to The Doors.
While Jim Morrison was undoubtably a better singer than Mr. Manson will ever be, I think his version shows a much deeper understanding for the time in which the song was written and as such is superior, in my opinion.
@evanb81 If you don't like MM, then y the fuck did you click the video? Wow, you must REALLY be a fucking dumbass! And he sure is not a fucking "wierdo". Oh, and you mispelled the word Weirdo! XD Dumbass, dumbass, dumbass! Ur nickname is now Captin Dumbass! Woo!
@evanb81 He is not a weirdo. He is the most beautiful man in the entire world! And his music is AMAZING!!! Stop trolling and get a life, dumbass. Just because u hate him doesn't mean that u have 2 troll around on his fucking videos
hey... I haven't heard Marilyn Manson singing a song in which you can really hear his singing qualities before. He sings pretty good. I never realized that ;-)
hmm i really like Marilyn Manson but i dont think this is his style, was a very plain song (actually im surprised is the softer song i´ve heard of all his discography hehehe). BuT stil...Marylin Manson is A GENIUS !!!
