In case you didn’t know, Jeordie White (formerly of Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, and A Perfect Circle) has a side project that began in 2005. They are called Goon Moon and they are awesome! I recently ordered their first full-length record, Licker’s Last Leg, and I am in love.
Goon Moon — “No Umbrellas,” from the mini album I Got a Brand New Egg Layin’ Machine (2005).
Marilyn Manson — “Coma White”
I had not fully appreciated how many songs Marilyn Manson has covered throughout his career — until now. I’m not going to include the ones he performed live that are not somewhere on the internet, because I’ve never heard them. Makes sense, right? 🙂
Here we go, in no particular order.
1. “The KKK Took My Baby Away” (The Ramones)
2. “Golden Years” (David Bowie)
3. “In the Ghetto” (Elvis Presley)
4. “Working Class Hero” (John Lennon)
5. “What Goes Around…Comes Around” (Justin Timberlake)
Guys. He covered Justin Timberlake. Oh my God. ❤
6. “God’s Gonna Cut You Down” (Johnny Cash)
7. “20th Century Boy” (T. Rex)
8. “Down in the Park” (Tubeway Army)
9. “Tainted Love” (Gloria Jones)
10. “Get My Rocks Off” (Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show)
I tried to focus on his less well-known covers, but I had to include “Tainted Love.” It’s just so good! Also, I have a couple of honorable mentions:
“You’re So Vain” (Carly Simon)
“This is Halloween” (Danny Elfman)
I decided to start doing this once a week. I am following so many bands/artists on my various social media, and I think y’all should be too! Also, if you have recommendations of your own, feel free to comment!
