Putting Holes in Happiness
"Putting Holes in Happiness" is the first track from the 2007 release Eat Me, Drink Me. Written on his own birthday Manson describes the song as been "a romantic-misogynistic-cannibal-gothic-vampire ballad". Similarly he has described the whole album as been "cannibal, consumption, obsessive, violent-sex, romance – but with an upbeat swing."
RockMag describes it as "a mid-tempo title made of epic and tearful guitar riffs. On this heavy, dark serenade, Manson wears a tortured crooner voice and cries an attack to someone. Musically close to the glam metal from Mechanical Animals (more precisely "Disassociative"). At 2:46, a howling guitar solo tears it's despair during almost a minute (it ends at 3:37). Like in "Fundamentally Loathsome". From there you can tell the record will be emotionally strong, probably a link with his divorce with Dita. It has a length of 4:35 according to the magazine.
