| I love this song and hate it at the same time, the mocking of such a serious subject grates on me a little but then thats also part of its charm. I especialy like the like the line: The game of life is hard to play I'm gonna lose it anyway The losing card I'll someday lay I think its really honest but also quite morbid and dark so its a nice balance | |

| "most poeple who have a brain in their brain as big as Manons' which is functioning on a sufficient level." (wow) You got it buddy. I'm glad my brain is in my brain and mansons is in my brain and nietzches brain is a brain inside a brain too. Keep up the intellectual thoughts. Regardless how the song originated its message is jacked up. There is nothing happy about suicide...its a selfish way of giving up on life. Life isnt supposed to be easy we have to fight for our peace. Suicide doesnt bring on many changes it brings on one change and thats stepping off into eternity...(which could be worse) | |

| yesterday i thought of taking my life, today i am still depressed. i can take or leave it if i please. suicide is painless brought a feeling inside me outside. the way he sings it is so beautifully sad, it brings sadness entagled in happyness alive in me. | |

| I love this song, it is beautifully sung, It makes me feel like the world is gone while I'm alone If I die I'll be with the world again, Sorry if that sounds stupid but it's what I think! | |

| this is a pretty good song. I like the instrumental from the original, which was the theme for M*A*S*H | |

| I honestly think its really stupid of you to like the song, but then just not like it because its a cover. I thought he did a very good job with it. He gave it the deathly, dark feeling that a song about this subject should capture. | |

| I love this version, but I prefer the version by the Manic Street Preachers. You should all hear it. | |

| this song reminds of my best mate. it was her favourite song, she would listen to it constantly on record. at her funeral they played this song and instead of it making me feel sad it made me feel happy for her because it made me think of all the time we had spent together, all the laughs that we had. so whenever i feel depressed i listen to this song. sometimes the manson one, sometimes the original one | |

| Well, that's super, but he didn't write it. The original song is the theme of the M*A*S*H* movie, and the instrumental version is the theme of the M*A*S*H* show. So you would be incorrect, simply because he did not write it. | |

| The song's mocking suicide. In the original film version of MASH there's a character nicknamed ' Painless', who kills himself. Hence the title. | |

| ok here's why it's fucking retarded that marlyn manson or however the fuck you spell his name covered this. It's not a deathly song or any of that crap. Painless is the dentist in the original mash movie. he wants to die. So they make him realize that too many people depend on him. He wanted to die cause he thought he sucked as a dentist. Go watch the movie. It's kinda funny, and cool. and you'll understand the song better | |
