Marilyn Manson


Sweet dreams are made of this, Who am i to disagree? -Marilyn Manson
     This man, this icon to me has just climbed up into my life and absolutely ruined my sweet and innocent personality and Honestly, i couldn't thank him enough. 
     Well let me not start off jabbering and leave you without a clue of who he is. His stage name and name that he is best known by is Marilyn Manson, but he didn't start of with that name. He was born in a small town called Canton in Ohio on January 5th, 1969, and was given the wondrous name of Brian Hugh Warner. Raised in a small town he attended his mother's Episcopal church though his dad was a Catholic, but this religion would surely fade away as he grew older. As a teen he formed a band called Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids, which soon shortened to just Marilyn Manson later on in his career. He worked with Twiggy and Madonna Wayne Gacy. He's released around 7 albums. Okay so how did he manage to create the name "Marilyn Manson"? actually it's not as complex as some people think, he simply wanted to put the names together of two really great singer, Marilyn Monroe and Charles Manson. People are always confused with his music and say he sings the songs of the devil but honestly who can be an angel 24/7? i certainly can't so yes he does sing music that seems to be demonic for example Sweet Dreams (are made of this) is a very frightening song to some people so they rather not hear it, but his genre is not defined as Devil Music.It's actually classified as Shock rock, Alternative Metal or even Hard Rock. His style is very very original and i don't think anyone overwhelms me like he does.
     So the reason that i'm writing about this is just to let you know more about someone you dont know, but if you do know him then maybe this isn't new to you. I really love this singer and he's inpspired me to be the person i am and thanks to him iv'e learned to understand the more darker side of me. His music has helped me understand life, and to cheer me up, iv'e been listening to him since age 11 when my whole life crumbled to pieces, he's and icon to me, i have dreams about him, I just love Marilyn Manson.
