Marilyn is a poet. Amazing lyrics to go deep on

Jeeeez Stevie. Just when I thought you couldn't possibly open up more than you already have been you surprise me yet again. Many ppl that don't listen to MM have a hard time getting the lyrics if they're watching this video. Many can't get past the images to the meaning of the words. VERY impressive 👏 I have to admit I was a bit worried in the beginning when you weren't even bobbing your head.... because as soon as I hear that opening riff I can't help but bang my head a little

The first time I saw an interview with Marilyn Manson, I was amazed! The man is brilliant, extremely well spoken & very knowledgeable in general. I can't remember who was interviewing him but it was something on prime-time like 60 Minutes, Larry King or something like that (this was in the 90's...so loooong before social media). The sharp contrast between his intense look (latex clothing, iconic contacts, goth-type make-up & nail polish) & the incredibly intelligent, well-spoken manner with which he presented himself surprised not only the audience watching but the interviewer as well. I so distinctly recall the look of shock & awe on the interviewer's face - it was priceless!

Mad respect for your reaction to this. You kinda blew my mind by how well you got the concept and understood the depth Manson. This is one of the best reaction videos I've seen in any genre of music. Another song of his I would recommend you is "The Dope Show" I believe you would like that. It not being your genre of music I'm not sure if it would be something you'd listen to again, but if he has one you would this maybe it. 🤘🏻

I'm not VERY familiar with Marilyn Manson, but from interviews and things like that, he strikes me as a damn intelligent freethinker. Wether you agree with him or not, you gotta respect the man. He intrigues me either way.

The Virtual Club scene usually is engulfed with remixes to Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie songs. They actually really make a lot of sense lyrically, and serve as anthems for the underdogs of our society who feel left out or disposed. Even if people don't understand you, or think you're "Beautiful... there will always be people who feel the same who also think you are beautiful. Amazing reaction.

Stevie, I enjoy your reactions. If you think this song has lyrical, intelligent substance, I would recommend 1996, Man That You Fear, or Get Your Gunn. Manson wanted to shock the world (and he absolutely did), but his lyrics can get into some very deep topics that the average person glosses over. This is a rabbit hole you should go down. American culture is many things, and Marilyn Manson is a significant section of that culture. Last thing, the media held him partially to blame for the Columbine school shooting back in the day simply because of who he was. The shooters did not even listen to his music. There's a short interview clip with him from the movie "Bowling for Columbine" that sums up all that needs to be said in a sentence. He's not necessarily a good person, but his intelligence is clear.

Marilyn Manson is all about "shock value" when it comes to the looks of his stage show and his videos. But when you pull back the layer of "shock" you realize that the man himself is pretty damn talented and rather intelligent. I mean, he knows that there is a "marketing element" to his career, and he leaned into that marketing element rather hard when he first came on the scene. But when you listen to him in interviews, see him doing talk shows or radio shows, he is really aware of what is going on politically, socially, economically and internationally. He clearly studies different aspects of media outlets and views to be informed of what he is talking about, and how to weave it into his music. HOWEVER, the one thing that kind of "detracts" from him is the number of "covers" that he has done. Most of them are pretty damn good, especially his version of "Sweet Dreams" and "Tainted Love". But after awhile, you kind of want him to do more 'original material" than he does on an album. And this is why he has always been "hit/miss" with me. I just don't really get into him the way that I get into other groups like Metallica or Black Sabbeth or Iron Maiden and Eminem. And after awhile the "shock value visuals" became rather tiresome for me personally. But like I said, when the man sits down and speaks about something, he is highly intellectual about it and takes it seriously.

I love his Mechanical Animals album. Growing up Marilyn Manson was a big influence in my taste for music. I even bought his t-shirt. My parents were convinced he was the devil, especially after Columbine. 😑 Needless to say, my shirt wound up missing from the dryer one day. One of my favorites of his was Disassociative from the mentioned album.

I just found your channel recently through Tool reactions but have started watching more. You are moving up my list of favorite reactors. Great job being able to see beyond the looks and get to the substance. There have been some very theatrical bands through the years that have great music (Alice Cooper, Kiss, Rob Zombie) that just get judged before the critic even hears a note. Very nicely done on your part and I look forward to many more. Subscribed BTW.

I am a Christian and always strived to be open..when MM started popping up on the scene I was a teen at the time and very immature in myself to even grasp what he was doing, but now at almost 38 I’m blown away because it really isn’t satanic like you said, you have to look beyond the imagery and it is a powerful message. I am a metal head as well and that is why I also appreciate a band like slipknot you have to look past imagery and listen to the music hint, why they originally wore masks ✌🏻

Stevie is the best reactor on youtube. He started off on solely rap/hiphop & throughout the time here, has broadened his horizons & expanded his mind & thoughts. Also, you can tell he is genuine. These reactors posting "First time hearing rap god" like posted 3 months ago? Say for example, is such a lie. Big up Stevie! Love from the 🇬🇧👊

Definitely has a lot more good songs. Some a little more calm too. Mechanical Animals album is more chill, but heavy. Awesome live too. Lunchbox is a good anti-bully track. He does a live “The Way I Am” with Em too. Its on here.

This has to be the best and realest MM reaction ever! ✌🏻👌😎

For me, this song and video has always shown the intersectionality of all types of art. All art- music, writing, dance and imagery- is supposed to make you feel some type of way. This is no less valuable than Francisco De Goya’s “Saturn Eating His Children” or when the Catholic Church hired a sculptor named Geef to depict Satan. When presented with they statue, they were angry because he looked too beautiful. So they hired Geef’s brother to make a different one and he made Satan look beautiful AND SEXY! Metallica’s “One” is no less meaningful than Mozart’z Requiem. And I would argue that Hannibal Lecture in the books, movies and the TV show are just as valid. But, in this song in particular, don’t miss the bars. And I don't want you and I don't need you Don't bother to resist, or I'll beat you It's not your fault that you're always wrong The weak ones are there to justify the strong The beautiful people, the beautiful people It's all relative to the size of your steeple You can't see the forest for the trees And you can't smell your own shit on your knees There's no time to discriminate Hate every motherfucker that's in your way Hey, you, what do you see? Something beautiful or something free? Hey, you, are you trying to be mean? If you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean (Ah, ah) The worms will live in every host It's hard to pick which one they hate the most The horrible people, the horrible people It's all anatomic as the size of your steeple Capitalism has made it this way Old-fashioned fascism will take it away Hey, you, what do you see? Something beautiful or something free? Hey, you, are you trying to be mean? If you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean.

I know what it feels like to be disregarded cuz I'm not outwardly 'beautiful' and have felt the rejection and distain from this world. His lyrics are beautiful, tragic, painful...pure poetry. His style is art imo, I love his videos, thought provoking and thoughtfully depicted. Being ugly doesn't mean your 'evil', and just cuz some of us question religion doesn't make us evil either.
