  • @wolfinleather I guess I never made the connection between this song and the metal band, Lamb Of God. Interesting how Barber could come up with a gem like this and a metal band writes very crude/cluttered songs while using a name that means they are somehow delivering us from something, maybe society or their version of evil. I think that's whats wrong with music these days. No one really listens anymore and ponders what is meant or relayed to the listener.

  • @zeekwolfe - I actually think she was pretty smart, although it behooved her to play the airhead. She was well-read, well versed in music... Look up some of her quotes, I think what she had to say was pretty spot-on and insightful. She had a rough life as a child with no-one loving or wanting her, and I think that can affect anyone as an adult..

  • Making us believe that Marilyn had expressed her opinion on Barber's music is unfair, you know...

  • Cuerdas,Samuel y Marilyn hermosos !

  • 5:04 was kinda freaky though

  • @droid327 Yes me too, and on her deathbed too, going by the thumbnail

  • That was interesting,LOVED the music :)

  • profound and sublime matching of film and music. whoever executed this is highly intelligent.

  • monroe was an elite escort for da rich much more than she was an actress.

  • From the title, I was expecting to hear Marilyn commenting about her feelings on Barber, which would have been much more entertaining (and surprising)

  • One can rarely forget such a marvellous piece of acting, beauty and music unless she or he is dumb.
