The original song bleeds with repressed feelings and burdened with transgressions, and so is a perfect fit for an artist like Dollanganger, who made sin and suffering heavenly on her latest album Natural Born Losers. Her vocals, as airy and foreboding as ever, give a new narrative power to the titular character, a form of agency and perhaps a chance of redemption that's at once revelatory and totally badass.
