I do belive it is, but the version i have is from the Myleene Klass album. Either due to temprary insanity, or that have only heard her version, i put her name down. I do apologise.

hey, puff is an amazing song. listen to it, to the sadness, the loss, the despair captured in it.... all quite beautifully done.
And marilyn manson is just one of the most ingenious, amazing artists i have had the honor to listen to.

the cover jonny cash did was good, cos he changed the meaning of the words just by the expression of his voice. But still prefer nin version, rougher and gritty.
