what a weird thread.
i was just saying on the other thread that i love how she used the act of covering a song as an aggressive tactic on this album. like the song is a chessboard and she and eminem are on opposite sides of it

it's actually quite remarkable how much the song still works in the mother's voice.
so many little details in her inflection - repeating "me and my daughter", the intake of breath on "on the count of three" where it slips from campy horror into something genuinely chilling
