Reach Out and Touch

Whilst radio surfing I heard a Marilyn Manson song that reminded me of a Hilary Duff song my roommate liked in college.

Don’t believe me? Reach out and touch faith. Now reach out and touch me

This was the video where Hilary Duff wanted to prove she could slut it up just as well as every Disney pop-tart who went before her. Her song was also released four years after Manson’s song. Despite the similarities, I really don’t want to give Duff that much credit. If she was sampling Manson, it was either due to a producer or sheer accident IMHO.

While I’m not a Manson fan, I got a kick out of this song. Part of it is because I’m spiritual, not religious. Another part because even if I ignore the hell out of my coworker, I still hear her say god, Jesus, lord or some combination of the three about 10 times a day. (I ball-parked it after a week of being severely under stimulated.) Anyone that inflammatory has to make a few good points now and again.
