Hm, here's me & Shea doing "White Trash"

;

I first heard this song on the Marilyn Manson album Smells Like Children

Columbine didn't kill his career no more than Satan excelled it. It's much like everything, it had its time in the sun. Some songs still hold up today, it's just not the thing now.

Music is complete rubbish in today's world, I guess that's what all the old folk say.

Just a loser with a 25 million dollars huh? How many millions you got PG-13? How many Grammys or even nominations?


I don't even particularly care for Marilyn Manson's musict, I mean if you want to get hardcore then do it right, but I do respect him as an artist, even an actor. Whenever I randomly see him act in something, it's a very disturbing role

Industry awards are jokes. They are handed out by people that can't create on their own and get off on pretending they are more enlightened and more hip that the rest of society.

Well, then he's just a loser with a few million then, they are a dime a dozen.

Wiki says he's been nominated for 4 Grammys but never won. He did however win a "Mtv Music Award" in 1999 for "The Dope Show."


Real artist don't do it for the accolades anyway

A Grammy?

I'd say given that his net worth is estimated at $25 million and the fact that he has been romantically linked to desirable women such as Rose McGowan, Dita Von Teese and Evan Rachel Wood ... his career turned out just fine.

What more could a little Gothic boy from Ohio expect?

I'd say the breast implants did it.

Some of his music isn't bad, in my opinion. Be that as it may, I would think that his career downfall is that his music and his public persona aren't commercially friendly. If it wasn't for music videos the success that he did have, in terms of popularity, would have been even more diminished. He was a fad, like 2 Live Crew. He was taboo, so some peeps were drawn to his music for that reason. Be that as it may, you can't stand in direct opposition to commercialism and then expect to be commercially successful in the long term. Less play means less pay.

I say his terrible "music" and poor lyrics took care of his career.
