Boy George's best drag buddy, Marilyn (taking his stage name from his
idol, Marilyn Monroe) released a couple of singles on Virgin in the UK,
which sold well enough to merit an album. Marylin was last seen in
an American tabloid offering a kiss to a decidedly horrified Raquel Welch
(although as of this writing he is rumoured to be living happily in London's
Soho district.)

12" versions. Please write
