Although better known as an actress and a sex symbol, the unforgettable Marilyn Monroe was also a highly personal vocalist. Even though she occasionally took lessons in the intervals while filming her movies, her singing remained mostly intuitive, and her voice evoked sensuality and glamour. This 19-track collection compiles her most memorable recordings, including hits such as "I Wanna Be Loved by You", "My Heart Belongs to Daddy", "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" and the perennial "Happy Birthday," which she sang for President John F. Kennedy shortly before her untimely death.
