OMG, you won’t believe the juicy deets I found out about this song! So, there’s this character named Hester in this super old novel called The Scarlet Letter, written by Nathaniel Hawthorne way back in 1850. And get this, there’s this reverend named Dimmesdale who, guess what, “did it” to Hester! Scandalous, right? Well, in the movie version of The Scarlet Letter from 1926, Dimmesdale was played by this hottie named Lars Hanson. But wait, there’s more! The lyrics of this song also mention Mark David Chapman, the guy who shot John Lennon, and JFK (Jack) who supposedly had a fling with Marilyn Monroe. Can you believe it? This song is like a wild ride through history and scandal!
