That's a lot of info about Marylin Monroe I didn't know about.
The romanticising of the dead can be very annoying even when done in a normal scale, the 'don't speak ill of the dead' way people do. But with an icon like Marylin Monroe, it's taken to such extremes it's quite laughable. The song has the exact opposite of the intended effect for me.
I wasn't crazy about the Diana version either
But I must ask, has there ever been a fitting musical tibute to someone's life in recent years? Because I keep trying to think of examples, and all I can come up with is that Godawful Puff Daddy song.
