Good morning!
I just got around to reading this, and I wanted to point something out:
Rubella isn't the name of a person, it's the name of a disease, German Measles.
The song is essentially someone dying of an infection, dressed up as a love
song. It's a cute play on the fact that Rubella sounds like a woman's name.
