Okay so now I'm going to have to watch for "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" to show up on TV so I can listen for Marnie vs Marilyn.

Marilyn actually had a nice singing voice. I always enjoyed the "Running Wild" number from "Some Like It Hot" and she did "Heat Wave" - nearly stole the show from Ethel Merman who was NOT amused - in "There's No Business Like Show Business." Somewhere or other on Amazon and proably eBay there's a CD with about 20 of the songs she recorded.
