I remember the first time I heard "Personal Jesus" it was the spring of 1992. I was 11 years old. I didn't know who the depche mode was and nor did I really care, I was sitting in the backseat of my mom's station wagon and I heard it come on the radio and I was like, Whoa! this is awsome. That began my love affair with "goth" music. Well, we are back to that first love feeling when I heard Manson's version of "Personal Jesus". I am not much of a Manson fan but I was bored and browsing Youtube.com looking for new music to listen to. I came across Manson's version of "This is halloween" ( That is a whole other blog) and low and behold there was "Personal Jesus". I could not resist but to have a listen. I was immidately blown away! Manson's haunting vocals and rich instramentals were simply delicious! So, If you have the chance to catch Marilyn's version of "Personal Jesus" you should!~ Nothing really holds a candle to the orginal Deche Mode version but Manson comes pretty darn close!~
