Somehow I don't see Duran Duran fans going in for a bit of Swan Lake.

I was suprised to hear that Dame Elton will be doing "Candle in the Wind" again. You would have thought that in the past ten years he could have managed an original song wouldn't you?

It was on the news today that he'll sing it again. Poor Marilyn must be spinning.

diana have a lot of song for her, I personally love ''a millon of suns'' of chris hugh, but the elton's song is a hymn, he sing it in the funeral, in a moment very very emotive, I remember that the solds 30 millions of copies in a month

Yes but it was originally for someone else which does taint it a little. There were not many similarities between Marilyn and Diana. Whilst it was acceptable for the funeral, after ten years, surely he could have written another one and left "Candle in the Wind" for Marilyn Monroe?

Bernie Taupin wrote the song about seeing one of Marilyn Monroe's movies shortly after her death. Actually I think it was particularly appropriate for Diana. Marilyn, like Diana, had a particularly bad childhood, a string of failed relationships, and a series of failed (or faked) suicide attempts. The man she most loved (Joe DiMaggio) divorced her because he was embarassed by her high profile and open nature in public (gee, what does that remind you of). She was last linked with the Kennedy men who like the al-Fayed's their motives were questionable at best. Her niece who was very close to her said she could turn from the girl next door to a voluptuous sexual siren with just a change of her body posture. People in the business described her as either this lost little lamb or one of the most conniving witches ever to grace Hollywood. Marilyn was a complex person and her legacy was far from simple. Same with Diana.

if diana WAS popular we don't would be here talking about her, its so simple, if the newspaper write about her and the people buy it, if diana is tv and people watch the program is because she IS popular.
elvis is poplar and he is dead, the queen mother is popular and she is dead, kennedy, marilyn etc. this is totally off topic, but its the true, diana is popular, she still is in magazines, postcads, etc, she is most populat that many royals alive

I think the European princesses get far more coverage and along with Camilla are much more popular and newsworthy.

Diana's death did not cement her celebrity. It enhanced it though.

diana was very inportant for the british's history, don't only for be the mother of a future king, (nothing can change that) because she work very hard in 15 yeark as princess of waes, the magazine time this year mentioned her like aan most important character of the 20 century
