Editorial Review:
Culled from the band’s ten year, six album career, Lest we Forget: The Best of Marilyn Manson features some of the greatest rock anthems of the last decade. Opening with "The Love Song" from Holy Wood, it proceeds to the first of a handful of cover songs which have made it as singles. The decadent, beefed up version of Depeche Mode’s "Personal Jesus" may not vary much from the original but the band do it the appropriate Goth justice; "Tainted Love" adds a menacing, industrial-glam to the electric northern soul of Soft Cell’s version; and the one that broke them into the UK mainstream, "Sweet Dreams" by the Eurythmics sounds as good as ever. So, they do a good cover but it’s really the fists in the air crowd-pleasing anthems that back up the band’s iconic imagery. The high-energy signature tune, "Beautiful People" and tracks like "Disposable Teens" or "The Fight Song" typify the band’s intelligent approach to rock’n’roll posturing. While many may have all the albums already, Lest We Forget is the perfect addition for anyone who likes the odd song but was too fearful to delve any further in the world of Marilyn Manson. --Georgina Collins
Lest We Forget: The Best Of Reviews:
Best of compilation: Marilyn Manson 
2009-09-14 - Manson's best material is featured on this CD, highlighting his career, some covers appear on the disc, like Tainted Love.
Better than expected
2009-08-03 - I bought this album after hearing MM on a soundtrack. I was continually surprised by how much I enjoyed song after song on it. The sound can sometimes be dark, but that's especially appealing with "classic" songs.
No Response
2009-06-21 - This is supposed to be a review of the product but it is a review of Amazon. I ordered a used copy of this CD. I was charged for a new copy. I e-mailed Amazon to find out what happened before even receiving my CD to tell them what's up and received no reply. I'm keeping the CD, paying new price and will probably start CD shopping elsewhere!
Fabulous stuff 
2009-06-21 - I've always been a little up to date... kept my teenage on the cool track... we both love this CD... Great Manson stuff, with a few remakes of some classic stuff from my own youth... I'm 38 and love it.. she's 18 and loves it...
Greatest hits, volume 1.
2009-05-07 - Despite what many people may think Marilyn Manson does write the majority of his own material. You'll notice that there are only three cover songs on this CD...anyways, of course there will be another 2 cd Greatest hits album sometime in the future. Manson isn't finished making music just yet. All good songs, neat pics, good production.
