Marilyn Manson - The Reflecting God (live in Hamilton, 1997)

[77boondocksaint]

FIRST CONCET I EVER WENT TO MY MOMS PAID FOR THAT SHIT I STILL REP AN AUTOGRAPHED POSTER IN MY ROOM TILL THIS DAY. I WAS TWELVE STILL THE BEST SHOW I HAVEE BEEN TOO

[christian91196]

@77boondocksaint Well i was a year old here. Good for you.

[ChasingCharles]

this was the song that got me into Manson. The rest of his work is pretty lame.

[MatthewIanDollar]

umm what's the needle/dart sticking out of him? :P

[MaximusPowerXIVX]

Shit, back when he was still raw and gritty.

[jefdebeule]

alls de menze niet dom waaren dan was er geen gelovens want darwin

heeft laat zien hoe de werel is onstaan en dus ook het goedgeloof van de menze

[smokeweed84]

god exist

[FictileVillain]

@smokeweed84 Your name says it all.

[t1oxETy]

@smokeweed84 so do unicorns and lesbian butterflies...do lesbian butterflies exist? hmm...maby its something you can deeply think of while u get high

[shannon4551]

@smokeweed84 si existiese no existiria la maldad ni el hambre en el mundo!! tampoco existiria mm

[tdogmcl]

For the "fans" that call him god. Look into his religion for one and then read his book long hard road out of hell :)

[TheBloney]

only one version of reflecting god live,when sing the passage: ''Scar,scar,can u feel my power,shoot here and world gets smaller ...SCAR SCAR'' :) it is my favourite passage of all time :)

[zorazolia]

The more I believe in God, since Marilyn Manson is one of His wonderful creation. Such brilliant brain and boldness to scream it out. I am a believer. And I like Manson.

[sativacyborgful]

seriously...how in the FUCK does he do the scream around 6:08???!!!!??

[melisa000100]

You have to be SAVED to go to heaven,no longer oppressed by the FACISM of christianity.

[Hatesyndrome]

what did he said in his speech?

sry i'm not good in english.

thank you :)

[El3dar]

@Hatesyndrome Now Beautiful people.. There's so many people these days who is so mad about this one book right here.. So i think we should take a moment to read what it has to say: it says that u got to be saint in order to go to heave, as i see you only got to be yourself to go to hell! We will no longer be oppressed by the fashion of christianity! And we will no longer be oppresed by the police-state mentality... Sing with me: shoot shoot shoot motherfucker..." At least this is what i catch :)

[Auronshead]

@El3dar wasn't it "we will no longer be oppressed by the facism os christianity?"

[roen90210]

One of his best lyrics... I love it!! MM is god

[addiie59]

him wearing pants is weird :S

[jhonen32629]

@WrestlingBC12 You're just like the people who say that Marilyn Manson sucks. People have different musical enjoyments. Who cares if she likes ICP.

[YesIam97M]

This. Is. Power.

[crypticstenchofhate]

my fav song by marilyn manson

[undermoonlightglow]

MM at his best.

[missjuggalettehomie]

This is how I view the religious bullshit. God is a whore, Satan is a meth head, Marry wasn't a Virgin, and Jesus is dead. We're the last Gods left to save this dying planet.

[WrestlingBC12]

@missjuggalettehomie You lose any and all credibility due to your user name. ICP sucks donkey cock.

[missjuggalettehomie]

@WrestlingBC12 My friends made this account, not me. They chose the name, not me. I do not like Insane Clown Pussies what so ever.

[TheCatwomanBlogs]

The rational part of my brain says there is nothing attractive about this but damn.....

[leNOIRfae]

All he needs is a spot light and a microphone and the result is unreal..

[creepypASSta]

POLICE STATE MENTALITY

[thekolstad]

Awesome.

[evangrogers]

It's hard - is this my favorite song by Manson, or is Little horn?

[tzbling]

the " forgiveneeeeeeeeeeeeess" part killed the mike xD

[TehShortzBus]

whats hanging off his tummeh?

[Meatballhead07]

I never liked when he changes the 1st and 3rd choruses instead of singing them the way they are on cd. Sweet stage setup though.

[GLITZandGLOOM]

Awesome performance of one of Manson's best fucking songs ever. 

[SimonDove666]

What's that sticking out of Manson's Stomach? O.O...Anywhoo....LOVE YOU, MANSON!..You're a GOD! :D

[JS12Productions]

@SimonDove666 lmao it was kinda bugging me i just wanted to rip it off x]

[LaihoValo9]

i have no salvation and no forgiveness tattooed on my left and right forearms

[sammygod2]

LOL hahah i love it :P but that was just like crazzy

[ODIPORIS]

If u like the message of this song, search Secretumism on Facebook. Its my religion.

[AnathemusVideos]

Wow when he came to the section of the song where he sings "no salvation quick breathes then no forgiveness" it sounded like demon with a horde of plague behind those horns growing out of his head. I've never heard his voice as that powerful before with the exception of the equally matched performance of superstar live!

[AnathemusVideos]

I never understood the chest knocks and I still don't..lol?

[SuckeroftheYear]

sick...love it...

[PeakOilCountdown]

First of all, @lordabomination; SWEET UPLOAD! 1) I was born in Hamilton, 2) I've never seen an ACS-era performance of 3) my FAVORITE song, Reflecting God! Secondly, I have one word to describe Manson here... cocaine. It's been admitted.

[Ekobean]

How I wish I could have seen him in his prime. Damn being 7 years old at this time.

[synystarr19]

this man is amazing - he makes so much more sense than the majority of the world. Love his speech - kind of reminds me of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have A Dream" speech :-) both powerful and amazing

[kingofdaherbz]

that was fucking AMAZING

[XxComablackxX1937]

He was amazing live till 2003, Im not saying he isnt anymore but it just a complete different person and attitude, but people grow and change so it's expected.. I didnt get to see him live until 1999 and he was fucking awesome then. Still Crazy as ever... Unfortunatly i missed the antichrist era.

I still catch him live when i can and am still a fan an even ejoy his recent cd. Ir's just a different time and person. He is working on a new cd now so i hope it's another classic. Manson rules.

[rmhanzel]

Nah, THEOL fuckin sucked.

[1LTD1]

@rmhanzel

it sure did.

[everyonewilsuffernow]

@XxComablackxX1937 well his new album he said will be "more romantic" so i dont know if it will be another antichrist superstar sort of album but i hope for the best.. MANSON RULES!!!!

[XxComablackxX1937]

@everyonewilsuffernow

I've given up hope on another ''Antichrist Superstar'' but id settle for something along the line's of Mechanical Animals, Holywood or even Golden age of Grotesque.

His music isnt to bad, It's the drumming that has really gone down-hill, he needs live recording drums not processed shit.

Anyways im with you, I have hope's it will be good, beside's mansons type of romance is abuse and drugs haha so im looking forward to some update's and a release date/

[everyonewilsuffernow]

@XxComablackxX1937 Exactly, besides I like all his albums and if his new album is like any of his albums it will be good, but I like how he changes his sounds and looks and everybody needs to change sometimes, look at metallica they cut their hair in 2003 but they still rock, so all I have to say is MANSON ROCKS! (So does metallica lol)

[kingofdaherbz]

TRUE..

[creepypASSta]

what a sweet welcome we got to present times from this tour

[drummerman314]

WHERE DID THIS MAN GO?! this manson has been dead for about ten years now

[Guitarscreech06]

@drummerman314

Women entered his life for srs and then it went downhill? idk

[MrArchimond]

we will no longer be opressed by pop

[nightcrawler511]

@MrArchimond what does he mean when he says oppressed?

[alexanduhDanziggg]

Christianity as an organized religion really is fascist and very far from what it wants itself to appear like, I personally piss on the Vatican. Lots of people act like it's all the fault of the supreme entity known as God and/or of Jesus, I for one don't agree with that. I blame it on the fucking stupidity of people.

[Narqootiko]

no salvation, no forgiveness...

[TRANNQ]

u can feel the power right behind ur screen. :)

[livingdeadmoose]

I wish I could've seen Manson in his prime. This would've been the best show ever. Don't get me wrong, I saw him this year at Mayhem, good or bad he is fucking awesome. He will always be my favorite musician ever. This is my favorite song by him and this video always gives me chills.

[fanofa7x]

Yea this should have been in the Dead To the World VHS i mean come on!! It's like making a cake: you can't make it without flour! IT WAS NESSESARY FOR THE VHS!

[fanofa7x]

2:00 what does he have on his chest?!

[burninginlove84]

lookin for the audio version of this show...anybody?

[iembracetherandom]

Good luck man, most of this concert is on Dead to the World, for some reason, this, along with Cake & Sodomy, Man that you Fear and others were left off....heartbreaking

[TONYDABESTIDOL]

@burninginlove84 i have it. how do u want me to send it ?

[Ekobean]

Goddamn, I'd have loved to see him in his heyday...

[TheAndreison]

shit shit motherfucker

[IMnotRALPH1]

it shoot shoot motherfucker

[Heliosphan15]

BEAUTIFUL

[djokodallas]

THX FOR UPLOAD...NICE VIDEO

[iembracetherandom]

got to see him live for the first time last weekend, it was amazing, he still got a good 10 yrs in him based on that show....and I have no fuckin clue why this song was not included on the VHS "Dead to the World" i still watch that video all the time, it's amazing front to back, the whole movie is from this concert, I wish this song was included though!

[Hydelucifer]

He is the GOD

[poodfeets]

FUK YEAH!!!!\m/

[m4r1lynm4n50n]

good video, awesome performance, nice speech, great times...

an era that i see it never will come back...

anyway, no matter what brian and company are doing these days, i will always be there as a good fan...

[BootCrew88]

Aww man. These were the days when the show was still raw...

[spam6669]

AWESOME VID!!! THANKS!!!

[al4prez13]

I love all of Manson's albums, but Antichrist Superstar was the first one I burnt to a CD off LimeWire ( ha, ha). I just think the whole story behind Antichrist and how it was SOOO controversial for 1996, plus it helping to raise awareness of Marilyn Manson, truly defines itself each and every time I listen to it. I just love that album and it really stands out to me!

[Megadeth1Metallica2]

hes outfit kinda reminds me of a MJ outfit

[EnkiAnunaki]

We are all gods. Brian speaks the truth.

[iBwhite9272]

i love this song. if i were to peform any cover of him with my band. it would be either this beauitful people or 1996

[adamchabbi6]

awesome taste, dude. If I were in a band, I would cover Irresponsible hate anthem or the reflecting god

[merjguitar]

the hate anthem wouldnt be a good cover song...i think its one of those songs that can only be enjoyed if the actual band plays it.

[m4r1lynm4n50n]

dude i'm a drummer and i know all the songs... anytime, if i could, i will love to play manson songs...

im left handed like ginger by the way, hahaha! and i play drums since i was 16 now i'm 28...

[burninginlove84]

dude where are ya from? ..im interested in jammin

[m4r1lynm4n50n]

i'm from mexico dude... i believe that could be a problem about jammin if you're from USA or enywhere else, right?

damn, i hate it... (lol)

[SweetGothicPrincess]

good picture. Thx for posting!!! :) Love Manson!!!

[jhonen32629]

Shoot Shoot Shoot Mother Fucker

[InsaneKill666]

he wont re-release, but he might do better in his new tour, but unfortunatly it probably wont happen well

[acdcsupermegaultra]

Great speech at the beggining! Fuck The Catholic Church! Live the human nature!

[Pogokoala]

FUcking A MAN All these Manson video makes me cry because it not like that anymore, HOWEVER; if he wanted to and I don't think I stand alone here, RELEASE A BLU-RAY OF THIS VERY SAME CONCERT! or at least a DVD.. Please not the 2007 or 2008 or 09, or anything abut 1999 manson DO NOT RELEASE THAT CRAP! but this very same concert on Blu-ray! I will get it in a heart beat!

[deuce038503]

I believe that this concert was included in VHS that was released for the Dead to the World tour. Doubt he'll re-release it

[Pogokoala]

damn!

[jeniber]

it wasnt.

[Guitarscreech06]

@Pogokoala

OH DEAR LORDS YES. Spooky Kids- and ACSS-manson in HD DVD or blu-ray. Fuck yeah

[creepypASSta]

There was good acid going around for this show, just sayin'.

[becky1455]

lol bible shmible

[justasian6542]

marilyn manson is so fuckin amazing, i love him

[holylok]

marilyn manson for president!

[jhonen32629]

The Antichrist Superstar era was amazing, the look and everything

[oodeftonesoo]

shoot shoot shoot MOTHER FUCKER shoot shoot shoot MOTHER FUCKER!!!!

[heartagramchild54]

i love his little speech thingy. so true

[mwg64]

6:09

The Best "The Reflecting God" I have seen

[420canadian]

awesome quality

[DakotaJD]

God...going to his show on during ACSS era would be like attending church.

[DisplacedRuseRecords]

This whole event "in Hamilton, Canada, 2nd May 1997" looks to have been one of his best shows ever!

[jhonen32629]

His scream in this live version is epic. too bad it's not like that anymore, hopefully his voice will recover

[FootballnSoccer]

it never will. It happens when you get older and you haven't taken care of your voice, which Im sure he didn't. All that cocaine has fucked up his vocal box unfortunately.

[shanemyers21]

Thats What i'm talking about !!!!!!!! Headbang intill your Eyeballs fall out of your Fucking head !!!!!!!!!!

[sciath]

Im really interested in the story that goes along with the trilogy of those 3 MM defining albums.

[bawitback]

visit nachtkabarett then :)

[haileeann95]

That's good... believe me, it's larger than life.

bawitback is right, The Nachtkarett is the best source.

[XSaintHimekoX]

shit.. my lifes so skrewd wouldnt b suprsing if i ended up something like him Xd... MM RULES!!! i just wish i was at that concert altho i live in canada ... i missed it.. :o

[rutee1000]

i love this band so much

[mansonisgod13]

i love him.

[brooder5000]

I agree with roh808. That was his best album.

[shprotto]

where i was in 97?

in Russia....

its a pity that i wasnt in his eiler concerts...

[GothElven]

:( I wish I was there too dude

[evemanson]

meravigliosooo!!!

[roh808]

nothing beats antichrist superstar. best album he ever made at the peak of his career

[piratemonkey87]

it was an awesome cd but i think his career peek was holy-wood

[jaipiter]

ese sapo hp esta loko... q mierdas l esta pasando a este puto mundo...

[Sherap12]

Marilyn manso ndont need a band haha

[Shurikzy]

I love the Dead to the world version of this song. In my opinion it's more powerful than the others thanks to the voice he had this era.

[enagod]

sweet

[mika2131]

this was THE great Manson !!!

Nowadays I don't give a shit to this band...

[Akira1422]

Gotta agree with ya, sadly. He's lost his band, is at least Gacy still there? The new album was a horrible joke. I'll still stand by Manson tho, he's a badass.

[mika2131]

Even Pogo has left the band. Jeordie White (Twiggy)is back for the next band tour (Tim Skold has left the band in good conditions) but I don't know if he'll stay after.

and LOL the new album is not great but better than Golden Age Of Grotest the real joke lol.

[giannaluva65]

golden age was way better than the new one

[kinderwhore89]

both sucked

[fucdisdeath]

Nope But Twiggys Back

[woahXgirl94]

excuse me i love eat me drink me.. he puts alot of emotions in it.. my fave song atm is are you the rabbit?

[MaidenOz15]

Oh shit... whats he say at 6:50??????

[michaelmannequin]

Saw hamilton with something something.

:\ I cant really hear it much, but I got that part.

[einsteinfinity07]

saw Hamilton was full of (lies?) (lives?) when Im god everyone dies

[GothElven]

lives!

[rryanrreed]

"Saw heaven and hell were lies"

[einsteinfinity07]

yes those are the original lyrics but he says Hamilton at 6:53.

[rryanrreed]

ahh ok

[bigmak456]

"When all of your wishes are granted...all of your dreams will be destroyed."

[MaidenOz15]

ive been watching these older versions of this song, i dunno which i like more, these (album versions) or the later mechanical animals tour + ones how it goes straight into the music.

mmm both kick ass!!

[Grimmwood]

Bad mothafucka from America \m/

[piratemonkey87]

id have to agree, i went to his concert in brisbane last year and he played this and it was fucking awesome hey, greatest manson song ever, hes a living ledgend

[peepow123]

I love marilyn manson. if the mic was just a bit louder, this would have been perfect. not like it matters though, he's still the coolest mother fucker around

[cssNuramoN]

i dont like their live music... i admit he has really good and sometimes crazy performance, but the music is bad. the melody takes a back seat... but this is still the best song forever, at least the album version. MM ftw!

[randomrandomrandom54]

i live in hamilton :O now im sad cause i missed it :D

[sammeby]

congratz marilyn 39 years today:D

[elbrado44]

the gods guns and government was a great tour

[KR4Prez]

this is dead to the world tour

[Guitarscreech06]

This is, hands down, the greatest live video of TRG on Youtube.

[IndestructibleSammy]

Listening to this video of Reflecting God VS the performance from 2007, you can tell he lost his harrowing voice! But he still rocks!!

[Guitarscreech06]

He has such an awesome presence on stage during the ACS tour.

[dani280666]

Antichrist Superstar is by far Manson's best album. I miss the concerts!!

[JVmate]

Better than holywood?

[dani280666]

I'd have to say yes better than Holywood. I mean I like Holywood but ACS is still my favorite.

[JVmate]

Yeh, both great albums. For me though, i think Holywood is Marilyn Manson as the finished article. Their peek.

[dani280666]

If I had to choose another peak album beside ACS it would definitely be GAOG. That album surprised me. I have not even picked up the newest one. Have you?

[JVmate]

GAOG was pretty good. Yeh i have, Eat me, Drink me is a brilliant album. It's hard to describe, but it's different to anything else he has done...like every other album. It's not a classic, but if it had more songs, it might well could have been.

[dani280666]

Sorry I accidently clicked the thumbs down!! I guess I will have to pick up Eat Me, Drink Me for the heck of it.

[JVmate]

haha, no worries :-) Yeh, listen to it with an open mind, and then listen to it again. The more you listen to it, the more you start to appreciate it.

[dani280666]

Okay, I'll take your word for it!

[stadiedude]

yes thats true, but mechanical animals was my favorite album together with holywood

[RussX5Z]

Mechnical Animals? And Holywood? Those albums to me is mediocre compare to Antichrist Superstar and Portrait of an American Family. That is when he was at his prime. Those 2 albums are still my personal favorites by Marilyn Manson. Old School Marilyn Manson is still the best its too bad he is no longer like this anymore. The new

Marilyn Manson sounds flat and mainstream and he's even married!

[stadiedude]

antichrist and mechanical animals are the best, the new manson? you mean eat me drink me and the golden age of grotesque?

[afromanjack]

hes not married
