That suit really makes him look like a woman. I think he regrets ever putting it on but it doesn't change the fact that this is a incredible album. Had it since it came out and I just got it on vinyl. I forgot how much I loved it. I do wish he would stop focusing on the kiddies so much. All of his fans aren't 12.
In 2003 VH1 declared that Mechanical Animals had the twenty-ninth greatest album cover of all time,[27] It is also featured in Grant Scott's book "The Greatest Album Covers of All Time."
@TheLaysie I would refer you to his recent interview with Eddie Trunk on the TV show "That Metal Show" shown on VH1 classics. When the topic comes up, Manson clearly regrets having ever put on the suit. I think it reminded him of how much influence the record company had over his creative work in what they would allow him to do. He has expressed some joy at his recent departure from his last label. Now he is able to do more of what he wanted. Watch the interview. It's here on youtube.
@RayGunOfDeath I love how Manson fans always have evidence to back up their statements which usually consist of "how much control the record company had over everything and starved his creative ability" It's ridiculous to say that he regretted putting on the prosthetics, It's f*cking ALPHA on the cover. The androgyne. It's not like the record company was like "LULZ MANSON PUT ON THESE BOOOBS!"
originally some assholes thought this song was racist
white is used as a color that signifies an empty "soul" ....so if anything , this song is anti-racist
its also a refference to cocaine , but this song is mostly about how the world is empty now ...people dont care for eachother anymore ....we are drained of our colour....
and at the same time white can also stand for how the "white man" opresses all the other races ....theres always a racial refference ..but its not racist , its anti-racist
Certain songs touched people more than others. Props to MM for being able to write songs that touch people. Can't get enough of this song, especially on a shitty Monday!
To me Mechanical Animals is his best work easily and yet so many people don't know this album from him.. it's a shame. Lyrically as well as musically this album goes sky high. Just listen to it, the amount of emotions in that album... BOOM!! I haven't listen to it in a while and again it takes a hold of me like it ten years ago.. this should have been his exposure to a bigger audience and yet most manson fans claim this is too soft, just b/c he doesn't say F*** as many times what's up with that?
@GodendtheDevil I think people you described in your comment are more into "badass" sound than some message hidden in the lyrics and music, that's why they don't appreciate this album. MA is my personal favourite and I think the lyrics are simply brilliant, truly an insight into our society and the way our world works and they are also rather personal. Badass guitar sounds are great but they fail to express many different emotions and MA is clearly emotional. But that's just my opinion. ;)
yo guys, it'd be cool if you checked out my cover of this song. i only did like 3 minutes of it cuz i broke my a string halfway through and didnt have my low e string, but it was just for fun. just tell me what you think, and subscribe if you want :P
I Put MM song when im mad when im happy when im sad and jet i love it and i dont get tired of listening to his voice or his good damn lyrics cause he haves a song for every occasion MM its freaking Epic ^-^♥
I saw Manson in concert in Houston taxes with the mechanical animals album. He sounds the same in concert as he does in person. His performances are out of this world. It's the best concert I've ever been to in my life!!!! I love this song it rocks but my all time favorite song is Antichrist Superstar.Go Manson rock on we love you man.
I swear that was a sound bite from the original Metroid on the first nintendo. Loved that game - felt like you were all alone, somewhere else playing that game. a lot like i feel listening to most of this album. amazing album..
I remember buying the CD of this years back and I used to play it all the time. Very dark. I've never done hard drugs but I think it was inspired by that. Like a punch in the face to the world.
I wanted to get some more of his music on my iPod, when I found some of his "older music", but IDK if I should delete a few more songs. I got 200MB left. :{ I Amazing song(s). :]
He'd probably shake his head in disgust at people wasting their time on him, especially as a religion, which he's atheist, so, if you want to worship him, just listen to his music and you'll see why he wouldn't want it.
'I am the anti-music-god,' 1992, off Antichrist Superstar.
i love this song, i love this record, and i love the line-up that Manson had to tour for this. it suffices to say that this is one of my favorite songs of all time!
i listen to jam bands and rap i hate heavy music but i love manson mechanical animals is one of the best cds ever made portrait and antichrist are tha shit 2 hollywood was cool after that i dont care much for shit new shit mr manson is trruely somethin different
I'd say Marilyn mansons albums from 94 to and including 2000's Holywood are grossly underrated alltogether. it is kind of its own little niché, and people outside of it don't really look into it. They should. My personal favorite Manson album would be Holywood.
This was one of the first albums I picked up and really got into. I haven't listened to Manson in so long, and now I remember just how amazing this album is.
I used to put on my headphones, and play that cd over and over again when i was reading Frank Herbert's Dune. Somehow it felt like a natural fit. Best song of the best album imho.
Great song(:
