The bullet:
"I've got a crush on a pretty pistol
should I tell her that I feel this way?
Father told us to be faithful
I've got a crush on a pretty pistol
should I tell her that I feel this way
I've got love songs in my head
that are killing us away" |

"Lest We Forget – The Best Of" - это сборник самых ярких вещей в карьере Мэнсона, выпущенных с 1994 по 2003. Единственным новым треком на диске является кавер на "Personal Jesus" - песню группы Depeche Mode. Также к новшествам можно отнести то, что песни "Tourniquet" и "The Beautiful People" были отредактированы, и звучат немного иначе, чем в оригинале.
Первоначально данный релиз задумывался Мэнсоном, как прощальный. В конце 2004, через месяц после релиза, стартовало турне Aganist All Gods в поддержку сборника, которое изначально задумывалось как сугубо американское, но потом было расширено на весь мир. Несмотря на то, что данный релиз представляет из себя просто сборник, "LWF" - это всё же отдельный период в карьере Мэнсона, в который он имел свой собственный образ - образ Черной Смерти. ММ детально изучал причины возникновения Чёрной Смерти и её влияние на искусство и общество. На концертах он одевался в костюмы, которые имели сходство с одеждой "чумных врачей", а также с с помощью люстры "освящал" сцену перед началом выступления, изображая манипуляции с кадилом.
Тур в поддержку сборника закончился 31 августа 2005 года, именно тогда должна была закончиться и карьера Мэнсона, как музыканта. В интервью того времени он заявлял, что потерял вдохновение и не видит смысла заниматься музыкой, планирует уйти в кинематограф, а также уделять больше времени написанию картин. Также подобным заявлениям способствовало то, что в конце этого года он женился на своей девушке - модели Дите фон Тиз, с которой был в отношениях с 2001. После заключения брака Мэнсон планировал жить более спокойной и размеренной жизнью, однако этого не произошло. 29 декабря 2006 года Дита подала на развод, что и подтолкнуло Великого и Ужасного на запись нового полноформатника - "Eat Me, Drink Me".
Подборка песен, в целом, вполне объективна и содержит действительно хиты, которые достигли успеха в чартах, полюбились многим людям, в том числе и тем, кто фанатами Мэнсона не является, большинство представленных треков также являются неотъемлемой частью концертов.
Только вот мне не очень понятно что тут делают "The Love Song", "Get Your Gunn" и "The Reflecting God". Ни в коем случае не говорю, что песни плохи - они отличные, но хороших песен у Мэнсона много, а тут всё же сборник именно хитов. На них эти 3 трека явно не тянут, их можно просто назвать удачными композициями. А вот "(s)AINT" и "Coma White", которые, почему-то, оказались лишь среди бонус-треков, явно превосходят их по популярности и куда сильнее любимы аудиторией, третьей же заменой вполне могла бы стать "Great Big White World", которая также очень любима многими и на концертах исполнялась постоянно.
Сразу хочу сказать, что я ни в коем случае не пытаюсь "собрать" этот сборник из своих предпочтений. Просто рассуждаю объективно, основываясь на успехе песен в целом.
В общем, вполне себе хороший сборник, хотя и не идеальный, по вышеописанной причине. Тем более, учитывая что "LWF" задумывался Мэнсоном как что-то, что подведет черту в его карьере и поставит жирную точку, можно было бы более ответственно подойти к выбору песен и "отполировать" диск до идеального состояния. А, в целом, хороший релиз. Особенно подходящий для прослушивания тем, кто не знаком с творчеством ММ, и желает это исправить. |

"Personal Jesus"
Reach out and touch faith
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who cares
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who's there
Feeling unknown
And you're all alone
Flesh and bone
By the telephone
Lift up the receiver
I'll make you a believer
Take second best
Put me to the test
Things on your chest
You need to confess
I will deliver
You know I'm a forgiver
Reach out and touch faith
Reach out and touch faith
Your own personal Jesus...
Feeling unknown

Flesh and bone

"mOBSCENE"
"Ladies and Gentlemen"
We are the thing of shapes to come
Your freedom's not free and dumb
This Depression is great
The Deformation Age, they know my name
Waltzing to scum and base and
Married to the pain
Bang we want it
Bang we want it

The day that love opened our eyes
We watched the world end
We have "high" places but we have no friends
They told us sin's not good but we know it's great
War-time full-frontal drugs, sex-tank armor plate
Bang we want it

"The Fight Song"
Nothing suffocates you more than
the passing of everyday human events
Isolation is the oxygen mask you make
your children breathe into survive
But I'm not a slave to a god
that doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world
that doesn't give a shit
And when we were good
you just closed your eyes
So when we are bad
we'll scar your minds
fight, fight, fight, fight
You'll never grow up to be a big-rock-star-celebrated-victim-of-your-fame
They'll just cut our wrists like
cheap coupons and say that death
was on sale today
And when we were good
you just closed your eyes
So when we are bad
we'll scar your minds
But I'm not a slave to a god
that doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world
that doesn't give a shit
the death of one is a tragedy
but the death of millions is just a statistic.
But I'm not a slave to a god
that doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world
that doesn't give a shit
fight, fight, fight, fight
"Tainted Love"
Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain you drive in the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I run from you
This tainted love you've given
I'll give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love... oh
Tainted love
Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want any more from me
To make things right
Need someone to hold you tight
And you'll think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I run from you
This tainted love you've given
I'll give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love... oh
Tainted love
Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go
Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I run from you
This tainted love you've given
I'll give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love... oh
Tainted love
Tainted love

the weak ones are there to justify the strong
the beautiful people, the beautiful people,
It's all relative to the size of your steeple
you can't see the forest for the trees,
and you can't smell
your own shit on your knees
hey you, what do you see?
something beautiful, something free?
hey you, are you trying to be mean?
if you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean

hate every motherfucker
that's in your way
the worms will live in every host
it's hard to pick which one they eat most
the horrible people, the horrible people
it's as anatomic as the size of your steeple
capitalism has made it this way,
old-fashioned fascism
will take it away
hey you, what do you see?

"The Reflecting God"
your world is an ashtray
we burn and coil like cigarettes
the more you cry your ashes turn to mud
its the nature of the leeches, the virgin's
feeling cheated

my world is unaffected, there is an exit here
I say it is and then it's true, there is a dream inside a
dream, I'm wide awake the more I sleep
you'll understand when I'm dead
I went to god just to see, and I was looking at me
saw heaven and hell were lies
when I'm god everyone dies
scar/can you feel my power?
shoot here and the world gets smaller
scar/scar/can you feel my power
one shot and the world gets smaller
let's jump upon the sharp swords
and cut away our smiles
without the threat of death
there's no reason to live at all
my world is unaffected, there is an exit here
I say it is and then it's true,
there is a dream inside a dream,
I'm wide awake the more I sleep
you'll understand when I'm dead
I went to god just to see, and I was looking at me
saw heaven and hell were lies
when I'm god everyone dies
scar/can you feel my power?
shoot here and the world gets smaller

There's something cold and blank behind her smile
She's standing on an overpass
In her miracle mile
(Coma):
"You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today
Today to run away"
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
Her mouth was an empty cut
And she was waiting to fall
Just bleeding like a polaroid that
Lost all her dolls
(Coma):
"You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today
Today to run away"
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
