Yes, once you become famous your name is still around long after you have passed. People will still speak your name and read about you. So that is like living forever

That could be a good thing, or a bad thing.

Try to be on the right side of history, so people speak of good things about you after you're gone.

Well the whole point of the song was to state that “fame” makes a person live forever even after death, as evidenced by the fact that we are talking about her right now and her songs were a huge part of the early 80s that will always be remembered.

Not really a good joke.

Super easy joke, though. Not really even low-hanging fruit - you could pick that one up off the ground.
