Notes:

• The female voice on the recording is that of Marianne Faithful.
• The line spoken by Marianne Faithful at the end that goes "Say yes....at least say hello" is from one of
  Marianne's favorite movies: "The Misfits" with Marilyn Monroe.
• The subject of the song is allegedly based on a movie called Sunset Boulevard about a washed up celebrity
  who is dillusional and still thinks she's famous.
• The video is one of my favorites. It involves what looks like Metallica playing on this large steel platform that
  is spinning over and over inside a room. In reality, it was filmed the other way around. Metallica played on
  the platform, but the room actually spun around Metallica! This was such a trip that the band reportedly had
  to wear dark sunglasses to keep from puking. The video costs approx $400,000.00 to make, the set cost
  $100,000.00 alone.
• Included in the video game Guitar Hero: Metallica and can be exported to GH: Warriors Of Rock.
