Marilyn Manson & Shooter Jennings cover David Bowie's "Cat People" - LISTEN

The king of shock metal, Marilyn Manson, has a long history of using David Bowie’s “Cat People (Putting Out Fire)” to warm up his vocals before climbing on a stage. Now he teamed-up with country rocker Shooter Jennings to sing it for a new compilation. Manson really gave everything to emulate Bowie’s baritone and, needless to say, fit into the original’s goth rock soundbed hand in glove.

Listen to their creepy version:

The “Cat People” cover comes from Jennings’ forthcoming LP "Countach (For Giorgio)", a tribute to both Bowie and Moroder. It’s due out Feb. 26 on vinyl and March 11 digitally via Jennings’ own Black Country Rock Media, a label named after a Bowie song.
