Smells Like Children

They're all right.

Um, so smells like children is the one that came out in 1995.

This is kind of the first hit for Manson.

Cause it's the one that's got, um, uh, what do you call it? Um, Sweet Dreams on it as well as I Put a Spell on You which was kind of a follow-up single for the radio stations that were really having a lot of success with with that single when it first came out because the rest of the stuff on here is isn't exactly like good for the radio I like a lot of it some of it's really weird you know Diary of a Dope Fiend is like a play on that Dope Hats on that I really love but It's a bit of a different, you know, kind of vibe, like electronica kind of song.

But...

This song kind of made them famous.

This was like the classic him with the top hat thing on and making the face and the smells like children bit.

That really, really did launch Marilyn Manson's career, that album at the time.

Granted, he did only play three songs from Antichrist and nothing before that.

So no Portrait of an American Family, no Smells Like Children, none of that, which is like the best shit.

Were you mad about that? I mean, I saw Marilyn.

I was a fan of Marilyn Manson during his peak Antichrist Superstar.
