I feel them laughing at me I feel them snapping at me I feel the pressure inside building ‘til I try to break free

I can’t believe what I’ve done I should have never begun I feel the pressure inside telling me I never was the one

Last night I was listening to the 80s Oingo Boingo / Danny Elfman song Weird Science and it reminded me of some petty annoyance from years before.

IMVU used to offer music you could play in the chat rooms from their "music store" but the selection has never been that great. One day I found a cover of Weird Science (they didn't have the original Oingo Boingo version) so I bought it to play in the chat.

The person who covered it (and no, I don't remember who it was) changed the lyric "Not what teachers said to do" to "Not what Jesus said to do."

Why do this? Not only does it change the meaning of the song but it also feels very disrespectful since the original singer / writer is a Jewish man.

It seems to me that sometimes people cover songs without understanding the songs that they are covering and then they change the words and the song loses more meaning. I'm reminded of the scene in Hedwig and The Angry Inch when Hedwig sings The Origin of Love with Tommy and realizes Tommy changed Osiris to "The Sirus" because Tommy knows squat about mythology.

On a more positive side of cover songs, Aurelio Voltaire does the best cover of David Bowie's As the World Falls Down from Labyrinth that I have ever heard. It is on his Black Labyrinth album. And he is so respectful that he uses the same instruments David Bowie used when recording the original.

FINALLY, SOMEONE OTHER THAN BILLY.

The King of Goth, literally wrote the book on the subject, our great GothDaddy, the sharply dressed Goblin King of New York, Voltaire!!! I haven’t drawn him since high school when I first heard the“Boo-Hoo” album, but this shot was too fun to pass up.

Excited to get the latest album next time I have spare money, a “Labyrinth” themed one, you know how I feel about Bowie.<3

Aurelio Voltaire in The Black Labyrinth: I am a guy with a flute. I’m also his love interest, a female cave elf. And I’m her dad, who is bent on world domination. I’m a little goblin thief. Now I’m a snake who lives in the walls
