[edit] Occupations of Monika

I streamlined the introduction. Monika was a figure skater (not an ice skater) and undoubtedly took part in championships, but it cannot be verified that she was a national champion. I did research in German online sources and could not find any hint on this.

I too deleted the two sports stubs because Monika's main public notability is being the ex-girlfriend of Jimi Hendrix. Any arguments against deleting the artist stub too? It seems she is not renowned as a genuine artist.--Peter Eisenburger 19:55, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 'We'll Burn The Sky'

From the article: "[Monika Dannemann] also worked with [Uli Jon Roth] on his music, such as a song "We'll Burn the Sky" by Scorpions (credit for its lyrics) and album cover artwork for Roth."

I've loved this song ever since I was a kid -- particularly the live version from 'Tokyo Tapes'. I only recently learned that Monika wrote the lyrics. If so, then it's presumably about Jimi Hendrix. But the song's lyrics suggest suicide rather than accident death ("Yesterday you were leaving. Leaving life and all the pain").

Any one have more info about her, this song and the presumed connection to Hendrix? Dialwon 12:15, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
