Remembering Marianne Faithfull: From 60s Icon to Metallica's "Memory Remains" & The Mars Bar Scandal

Remember Marianne Faithfull?

Yeah, probably not.

But Neeley and Chris from "The Classic Metal Show" are talking about her anyway because she died.

Journey with us as we dissect the career of a woman who went from a 60s "icon" (their words, not ours) with hits like "As Tears Go By" to, let's be honest, screeching on a Metallica record.

We'll explore her early "success," her mid-career disappearance, and her, shall we say, "interesting" later work like the "Broken English" album—which apparently sold a million copies despite sounding like "diarrhea".

And of course, we can't forget the infamous Mars Bar incident with the Rolling Stones.

Was she a talented musician?

A groupie?

Or just someone who made questionable choices?

Listen as we try to figure out what exactly her "claim to fame" was.

Was it her association with the Rolling Stones?

Her "horrendous shit" music?

Or perhaps the melted chocolate?

You be the judge.
