Young Manson's hair is glorious

I like how they didn't censor a little kid saying "motherfucker" but they censor half of the song in this is the new shit

This was the first Marilyn Manson single I bought... My parents took the CD back to the store and cussed out the manager for letting me buy it because it had a "parental advisory" sticker on it. So, I went back the next day and bought it again....

Still one of the most badass songs ever made and it's about a lunchbox

I remember the story behind this song. Schools outlawed metal lunchboxes because they considered them potentially deadly weapons. So then Manson went and made song about a lunchbox school killer! Lol!

manson with them eyebrows is like looking at another person

You know times are rough when Marilyn Manson is in his own way sending a positive message to kids getting bullied in school to grow up and be somebody as opposed to shooting up a school and ruining themselves and hurting people.

Dude the thing is his message is so peaceful

Damn marilyn manson with long hair and eyebrows are just something i wasn't prepared for

...And he grew up. And he became a big rock n roll star (and the voice of my generation). And NO ONE f*cks with him. Damn straight 😂

I'm 15 year old boy and a metalhead. I accidantely discovered Marilyn Manson one day this summer, few months ago. I'm so glad to discover him. He really changed my life. Antichrist Superstar is my Favorite Album, I listened to Mechanical Animals and Holy Wood, Smells Like Children EP(My first Marilyn Manson Record) and now I'm listening to Portrait Of An American Family. I love him not only as musician, but as an intelligent, educated and just great human. I love messages behind his songs and Music Videos are super cool. Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie are two of my very Favorite artists of All Time.❤

This whole album was gold, rest in peace Scott, aka Daisy Berkowitz..

Has anyone noticed this is his most normal video ever?

Love the early Manson

Only 16M views??? Humanity is lost...

Now, this is what I grew up with! I miss it. All of Mansons' stuff is beautiful, but this truly takes me back. This song always used to and still does gets me going!

things to do with your lunchbox: 1- eat the delicious meal inside 2-let the bullies from school eat it 3- make an oferring for satan setting fire in it while inside of a mosh pit with an goth guy and crazy teenagers rolling on skate shoes

R.I.P Scott most underrated guitarrist of the 90s

Such a great song, unique among Manson songs. Not about drugs, not about Satan, just pure American rock and roll inspired by a young boy's life in small town America in the 80s.

My absolute favorite song of all time. I know every word and can't help but sing along every time. The best song in the world, from the best album in the world, sung by the best rockstar in the world. Absolute genius. Everything about it.

yes thank fucking god there is a Manson song on vevo with no fucking censorship

Manson, you did it, you ARE a Big Rock N Roll Star

Dear Marilyn Manson (and Spooky Kids), nothing they ever do can take this from you. No truth, no lie, nothing. You will always be the guys who recorded Portrait of an American Family. That is nothing to sneeze at, and here is my thank you note almost 30 years later.

Portrait of an American Family was hidden. It was so controversial, there was no hope of it ever becoming mainstream! Mostly unheard of, but the best album made!

Imagine when that kid got older and he was able to say “oh yeah, i was in a Marilyn Manson video”

Portrait of an american family is one of the most underrated albums of all time. Whenever somebody mentions Manson, they always talk about ”The big 3”(Antichrist superstar, mechanical animals and holy wood). Rarely do I hear someone mention their first album.

can't believe he was ever bullied. Such an amazing guy, what a wonderful image of himself he has created. So much talent!!!

Im 30 and i remember getting in trouble for jamming out to MM as a kid 😂 ☠️ i would change the channel back to listen to it again. Love the morbid dark truth and artistry of his music, it is genius.

The energy of the old Manson records is just fucking incredible. Everything up through Holy Wood was just excellent, but Portrait is so unique. It's not as grand as the ones that came after, but it has those cheeky samples that really gives it a 90s feel, since I always associate sampling like that with 90s hip hop culture. It also kind of has this 60s/70s psychedelic rock vibe that is absent from subsequent Manson albums. I feel like this song is also when parents probably started getting fearful of Manson, and sort of made him into this cultural boogie man. If you weren't born in the early 90s, you have no idea how much of a social villain he was - parents didn't want their kids listening to Marilyn Manson. They didn't really want you listening to Korn either, but Manson was taking all of the heat off of the other guys and was something of a lightning rod for the alternative scene. He did well with it too, up until about 2002 or so he was still "that guy" and sold a lot of records to angsty teens because of it.

Marilyn during this time period was just beautiful. Like later on he was hot, yeah. But here, oh boy. 🖤

Definitely has the classic rock tones! Love this song!

This album was gifted to me by my mother when I was about 7/8yo. I will forever love this song, I felt like my mind was being read bc some lil boy at that time kept fw me and I was like yup , time to fw him

The most underrated MM song by far.

Man I so badly miss the long hair and the eye contact lens

This has always been my favorite MM album. I grew up in Ft Lauderdale and was about 18 when they started to blow up. We used to see manson around town, in the movie theater, their gigs listed in RAG magazine, etc.... this video was filmed in a skating rink that probably everyone in ft lauderdale has been to at one time or another. We went there several times on school field trips. This era of MM was very representative of the sound of many local "heavy" bands at the time. Amboog-A-Lard, Collapsing Lungs (who practiced in the warehouse next to my band's), etc .i dont remember all the names..lol.. but at the time, the once ubiquitous grunge scene was disintegrating, and the rave scene was becoming very popular in s. florida and other places. Grunge was completely anti-image. MM took the opportunity to swing it around fully and make image very much a part of their band. Even though it wasn't, to a lot of kids at the time this seemed like a new thing, and it was very interesting to a lot of people.

It turns out, the correct way to deal with bullies is what bullies fear the most, retaliation.

This was the video that got me hooked to MM!! I was 15 then & 37 now and still a fan!

After watching this and Deep Six back-to-back, I can't believe it's the same guy singing.

Many think Marilyn is different or weird. But I just happen to be one of the few who love his intelligent mind, individual sense of art and music genre.

I remember purchasing and carrying a metal lunchbox as a teen just because of this song. It was hello kitty with a Manson bumper sticker on it.

My mother was so proud to show me off in my *"salvation army"* shirt. Since she got her prescription glasses, she's cut that same shirt out of all our old photos. 20+ years my dad never snitched👍(2:45)

I like how Marilyn Manson seems to be stoked to give the younger kids a cool opportunity to be in one of his videos with him. You hear a lot of teens and young adults talk about how much they absolutely hate kids and I think that’s super uncool. He doesn’t seem to be that way. Harboring no hatred for the youth. Hell ya

Hands down, one of best songs! Can you feel how much energy is in this?

Una bella canción sobre cómo enfrentar el paso de la niñez a la adolescencia y adultez, con tranquilidad y seguridad.

RIP Scott Putesky. What a legend ❤

MANSON (1994). One of his best eras in my opinion... Also, he was sexy as all hell.

RIP Daisy Berkowitz and Gidget Gein :( two writers of this song.

Love this so much, this is the music that shaped my life. I still have a metal lunch box. It's filled with cement.

Holy shit, Marilyn Manson without makeup is a totally different person.

I LOVE THE WAY HE SAYS "I BRING YOU"

Manson, your music is legendary. Nothing will take that away.

Oh God, I really miss this Manson here! They were playing good rough music and Marilyn Manson was a great performer!

Marilyn Manson with long hair and eyebrows is something I didn’t know I needed😳

This never gets old! Rest in peace Daisy Berkowitz!

I love this video so much so touching yet roar the moment he looks at the kid as he offers up his lunch box to fire so beautiful.

This first album was so good, he has forever good will because of it

Totally expected the kid to end up beating someone to death with his lunchbox before the end of the video.

Wait Manson had eyebrows at one time? Seeing the band without all the makeup is so weird

I remember when Marilyn Mansons playing somewhere was America's biggest outrage and problem...

A lot of people thought marilyn manson was implying that the kid in the video had a gun in his lunchbox, but what most people forget is that lunchboxes back then were metal and heavy, so the kid could have just used lunchbox itself to hit his bullies and it would have hurt.

2:54 first time marilyn manson ever has seen a child

I hope this child knew how lucky he was

Hands down his best song .wish there was a whole album in a style like this song.

Portrait is one of the best punk rock albums of all time, and no one wants to admit it.

MM if you're listening.. This is the kind of shit I wish you guys would put out nowadays. From a 45 yo lifelong metalhead and MM fan.. Pow Pow Pow

Damn I love their old shit so much.

This song, for me, is the Song that Captured me, I WAS COMPELLED TO SING ALONG! What an Odd juxtaposition in the video of the chaotic band playing and the smooth flowing skaters. Not to mention the kid, who we all know is going to grow up to be Trouble for his parents, society and even himself. 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000th FAN

this is what you call a fkn classic

[Intro] "Next motherfucker's gonna get my metal" "I bring you..." Break it down... On, we plow! [Verse 1] The big bully try to stick his finger in my chest Try to tell me, tell me he's the best I don't really give a good goddamn, 'cause [Pre-Chorus] I got my lunchbox and I'm armed real well I got my lunchbox and I'm armed real well I got my lunchbox and I'm armed real well ("I'm making my lunch!") [Chorus] I wanna grow up I wanna be a big rock and roll star I wanna grow up I wanna be, so no one fucks with me, yeah [Post-Chorus] "Fire, I bring you fire Fire, I bring you..." [Verse 2] I got the pencils in my pocket, try to put me down Wanna go out, gotta get out to the playground Gonna throw down at the playground I wanna go out [Pre-Chorus] Next motherfucker gonna get my metal Next motherfucker gonna get my metal Next motherfucker gonna get my metal Next motherfucker... Pow, pow, pow! Pow, pow, pow! Pow, pow, pow! Pow, pow, pow!

"It's beautiful to be made into a tattle tale or be forced to admire authority, or sell yourself for a piece of candy." Yeah! [Chorus] I wanna grow up I wanna be a big rock and roll star I wanna grow up I wanna be, so no one fucks with me, yeah I wanna grow up I wanna be a big rock and roll star I wanna grow up I wanna be, so no one fucks with me, yeah, yeah, yeah

RIP Daisy Berkowitz

Saw them on their first 3 tours...still some if the best live shows I've ever seen..and I've see 1000s of shows since the 90s..

Marilyn Manson was extremely handsome in this video

The good old days !

I saw Marilyn Manson opening for Nine Inch Nails (along with the Jim Rose Circus) at Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix on October 11, 1994. I had never heard of them, and they were touring in support of Portrait of an American Family (1994). I loved it, and I bought the album immediately. "Get Your Gunn" is still one of my favorite songs. Brian (Marilyn) is actually quite intelligent, even though most people only think of him as a shock-rocker.

I saw him on a talkshow, in the 6th grade. I shaved my eyebrows, bought the record ( other way around actually) ... put makeup on to look like i havent slept on years . Fun

I find it so funny because us Marilyn Manson fans look at this video and say oh my god this is such a normal video, but anybody who doesn’t know who he is or any normal person can look at this and say he is deadass insane

WHOLLY FUCK MANSON HAS EYEBROWS!

I don’t know why I can’t stop listening to this lately.

I love that in the lyrics of this song Mr. Manson encourages people who have been and are harassed by a bully to not let themselves be abused, and to defend themselves against bullies.

this song still kicks allot of todays metal songs asses...

As far as musicality goes this will always be one of my favorite Manson songs because it was an exploration of so many sounds. The snippets of movie/tv voices, the spoken word, rap-style lyricism, and the melodic chorus with groovy guitar riffs that carry the song from verse to verse. Portraits was a great first album and it only got better and bolder with time. Manson has made a musical evolution work in his favor, something a lot of rockstars fail to see through.

Brian, I love you and always will ❤️ please don’t let the haters take you down! So many of us, love you from day one and know you are innocent!!!

0:53 i love this Movement with the Lunchbox!! ❤ x'D before this simple scene i fall in love with the band 🔥

Marilyn's best time was between 1990-2003, love his new music, just wished he'd still have the long hair lmao

"What's your sexuality?" () Bi () Pan (X) Marilyn Manson Lunchbox era

This song changed my life. For better or worse, is still debatable, but there was the time before this song and the time after. It was a clear delineation in the trajectory of my life, and after hearing this, it was forever altered.

this will always be a masterpiece

Thank you Scott. We'll always miss you.

I can't even begin to count the number of times I have played this song over the last 20 years. It never gets old. Still my favorite Manson song!

thanks algorithm for proposing me this video after 13 years

I hate bullies too...

4:06 manson takes a Polaroid selfie lol

He had awesome long hair

He had a sort of Chili Peppers aesthetic going on at this time.

God damn. This early shit just god damn slaps. It's so good.

It's crazy the difference that eyebrows make. Cause I was having a hell of a time trying to figure out why he looks so different in this video compared to all the other ones I've seen (besides the obvious lack of make-up), and I finally figured it out. He has f***in' eyebrows in this one.

Am I the only one who's favourite Marilyn Manson album is this one?

Ahhh....that life changing.... liberating moment you stand up on the Playground 💪👊

i love how the lyrics are just the words of a kid throwing a tantrum

Now only Marilyn Manson is left. No other original member. Sad Times
