"WOW" is the ninth track from Marilyn Manson's 2009 release The High End of Low. Its title was revealed on April 7, 2009, in a blog which described both it and another songs from the album, "Arma-goddamn-motherfuckin-geddon".[1]
Music details
A blog by Metal Hammer describes "WOW" as "a grinding, NIN-tinged sex anthem. Genuinely filthy and intensely sexy, The Wow sees Manson riding a dirty Twiggy Ramirez bassline in an almost spoken-word style. Quirky keyboards interject all the way through the track while sexual female groans (occasionally spoken in German) swarm behind the crunching industrial backing track. The WoW doesn't have anything in the way of memorable hooks but it is the sort of track that would sound amazing in a goth stripclub...if one existed."[1]
Reviewing for Thrash Hits, Hugh Platt cited that "for every killer track there's one like 'WOW', a gutful of sickly electro honky-tonk with Manson at his lyrically most self-absorbed."[2]

Lyrics
I had a dream, this one I feel the need to mention: i was happy for a while and I stopped being scared and ashamed to say what's on my mind. but you thought that I'd change after awhile and said, "you better treat me different, or else!" or else seems like a stupid, fucking thing to say to someone like me someone like me WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW Don't be surprised I can look you in the eye but its hard to take you serious when you take me inside. I am worse than what you think you'd catch from me complicated is understated. did you stop and take a look at who you fell in love with? at who you fell in love with? It doesnt matter how many times I say it, it never gets old, thats why I have to say WOW Don't be surprised I can look you in the eye but its hard to take you serious when you take me inside.
