Honestly, if she had come out and said that this was intentionally her re-imagining of Hamlet, it still wouldn’t be the worst one I’ve read. There’s one book where Ophelia, after the events of the play, gives birth to Hamlet’s baby and then many years later falls in love with Horatio. Falling in love with Travis Kelce is not the most unreasonable suggestion for what could happen to Ophelia.
As much as I like having one song based on Hamlet, that's not enough for me. I want a million songs based on Hamlet. I want 12, at least. So, what if "The Fate of Ophelia" wasn't the only song about my favorite play? What if all of them were?
