Did Marilyn Manson rip off Bone Appetit?

People are speculating that “Running to the End of the World,” a song off Marilyn Manson’s latest album “The High End of Low,” bears an uncanny resemblance to our beloved hometown heroes’ seminal ballad, “Drive Away.” Stick with this story: Controversy (and hilarity) are bound to ensue.

    This case should be decided by a TV judge, so no lawyers are involved and both sides can defend themselves. I want a cut of the reality TV royalties, because I am the first to suggest settling the case this way. I’m going to sue whoever makes this suggestion after me.

    O.K but I’m registering the domain name mansondoesduluth.com

    Track # 2 will be a ripoff of Amy Abts’ “Big Whatever” titled “Chewing on Your Femur”

    Why would you want me to be… chewing on your femur?

    I am suing Mr. Lundgren for saying ‘whoever’ rather than ‘whomever’. This cannot be tolerated in a civil society.

    This is not a civil society, this is a Bone Appetit society.

    Instead of “see the full story,” please more clearly attribute and say “my girlfriend wrote this for the newspaper (not that there is anything wrong with that–in fact, in these trying times, &ct., &ct.)?”

    Adam, don’t be a dick.

    There can be only one!!! Come on Barrett, we can all be dicks.

    More of a dick.

    And she should get a hefty chunk from the Bone Appetit v. Brian Hugh Warner lawsuit.

    I think that it should be decided in a claymation battle with the two bands. You know, somebody takes Mary’s breast plate off and beats him over the head. As he is dying he is singing “The beutiful people” through the blood that is oozeing out of his crushed trachea.

    Sorry I got a little Tarintino

    Peace
