I like that one, too. I've heard it before. It has a pretty, plaintive feeling to it. I especially like the violin slurps (where you drag your finger down the whole string while bowing). I'd actually prefer the song *without* the horse, who makes the song start off sounding overly theatrical to me. If I'd been directing that horse, I might have requested a more subdued whinny.

Yes, I thought Manson is metal. Literally (based on the picture below)! So it is nice to know my hunch was correct. Thank you.
