Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)
Marilyn Manson · Lest We Forget: The Best Of
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who had a mind to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
I wanna use you and abuse you
I wanna know what's inside you
Moving on, moving on
Moving on, moving on
Moving on, moving on
Moving on
Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
I'm gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside
Gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside you
Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) - Marilyn Manson
Released on the compilation album Lest We Forget: The Best Of, this track reimagines the iconic Eurythmics hit with Marilyn Manson's signature industrial and gothic rock intensity. The recording transforms the original's synth-pop melody into a darker, more aggressive sound that aligns with Manson's broader discography and theatrical aesthetic. While the song retains the haunting melody of the source material, Manson's vocal delivery and production choices create a distinct sonic identity within the industrial genre. This version serves as a notable example of Manson's ability to reinterpret classic songs, blending nostalgia with his unique brand of shock rock and electronic experimentation found throughout his career.
