Marilyn Monroe - Gloomy Sunday ( The Bert Stern Archives )
Loading...
Uploaded by MarilynMonroeNo5 on Aug 28, 2010
Inspiring hundreds of suicides, "Gloomy Sunday" was dubbed the "Hungarian suicide song" in the United States. Composed by Hungarian Rezső Seress in 1933. Seress did commit suicide in 1968, but most other rumors of the song being banned from radio, or sparking suicides, are unsubstantiated, and were partly propagated as a deliberate marketing campaign.
This version I used is one of it's many covers but to me the most beautiful next to Rezső's, sung by Sarah McLachlan. I think this song is a beautiful, wonderful piece. I know I took a risk using this but I thought it went well with the emotions of Marilyn Monroe seen in these Bert Stern photos, which were taken in 1962. I think it turned out wonderful and showed the emotion I was trying to portray. Please enjoy. xxo

Rejected by parents and relatives in childhooh. then made to run from fosterhome to fosterhome and sexually attacked, then forced to join the group selling free sex for food for a short time, exploited by the studios and producers as actress, surrounded by selfish friends and acquaintances who wanted only to use her, ignored by husbands and ultimately killed by the Government. A life of living hell. However I mostly found you smiling or laughing in photos. I salute you Marilyn Monroe.
