Marilyn Manson Album: “Personal Jesus”

Marilyn's remake of Depeche Mode's 1989/1990 #28 hit is truly inspired. I loved the orginal, and I am not a big Marilyn Manson fan, so the stage was set for me to hate this song. However, I think Marilyn does a great job and takes a goth 80's song and makes it even darker. He certainly gives it a harder edge. I do think the price of this import single is a bit high. You might want to save some bucks and download it a lot cheaper.

Marilyn Manson's cover of Personal Jesus is awesome and rocks hard. The remixes of Personal Jesus & mOBCENE are very good and would make this a must have but wait there is more. This Australian import contains the Uncut! , Personal Jesus music video, this single is a must have for this alone. No fan should be without this cd.

If you like Marilyn Manson and Depeche Mode, you will like this song. That's all that really needs to be said.

OK. I'm 42. I drive a van. I have a kid in 2nd grade. And I rock out to "Personal Jesus" so hard with the windows down that I freak out just about every car that passes. I don't get into Marilyn Manson as a whole (but do love Nine Inch Nails, go figure). I adore Depeche Mode, but I prefer this version over DM's.

Buy it and play it and stomp your boots as you belt it out.
