      @@jerramaurice7836 It was one of the original songs from the movie, the same with The Emerald City Sequence and they even made a theme song for Dorothy that was going to be sung in that scene she and her friends were in the hotel in the Emerald City, it ended up being on the soundtrack. Oh and to correct myself, Stephanie wasn’t even asked to be in the movie. They only wanted Ted Ross and Mable King from the Broadway musical.

      Traditionally, the villain is usually the most important character in the movie. They're the ones who get things rolling on their own, while the protagonist usually just acts in response to them. So the villain's song has a bigger impact to make so the hero's struggle is more compelling.

    Love, love the way Mabel King does the jazz roll singing. Phenomenal and all-around talented. Her song was equally 'tight' and performed on the highest of levels. She accustomed her voice to sound like the piano roll jazz/blues musicians do. She is a perfect scatting tour-de-force in the tradition of Ella.

There are other videos of other people that have done this song in their plays. View those as well. Just sing the song LOUD AND PROUD. :) Also, have fun with it. That's all that matters.

The nature and product of their work is irrelevant; they sweat and toil to HER beat and it may as well be for nothing.
