What’s the song in the Blonde trailer?
The song featured in the Blonde movie trailer is a new, darker version of Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend by Marylin Monroe. You can find the original version of the song below.
The original version is happy and perfect for entertaining. However, the remixed song in the movie trailer has a completely different atmosphere and hints at the obscure sides of Marylin’s life that the movie will show. Netflix didn’t release the trailer version of the song yet.
Below you can find the lyrics you hear during the trailer:
A kiss on the hand
May be quite continental
But diamonds are a girl’s best friend
Men grow cold
As girls grow old
And we all lose our charms in the end
But square-cut or pear-shaped
These rocks don’t loose their shape
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend
Diamonds! Diamonds!
The song is an ironic hymn to the way women love diamonds. Marylin Monroe explains that there may be many ways a man can use to show love, but they all tend to deteriorate over time. Instead, diamonds maintain their beautiful shape forever, representing the best gift a man can give to the girl he loves.
