i’ve always been a huge fan of Manson. from the line-up changes to the differences in approaches to music over the years. the fact of the matter is, people change. when people change, so do their interests. so Manson and Depp happened to be interested in the song and decided to cover it…where is the crime? it sounds great. I’m sure they didn’t just “need the extra cash”. music is something he loves, so let him do it. not many people cried when he covered “sweet dreams”. why? i was great, as is this. and even if he had “mutilated” the song, it’s as Manson says on his newest album…”mutilation is the sincerest form of flattery” :) and as far as him needing a “new act”…check your facts…he is involved in many acts. he’s an artist. it’s just what he does. find something else to complain about
