Chicago - Class

[PeaceForMiddleEarth]

My high school's doing Chicago, and I'm Mama, but we aren't singing Class. It's a shame, it's a great song.

[Tinymoezzy]

I love this scene, irony, humor and some fuckin class.

[duckduckmoai]

"Holy shit, whatever happened to class, you twat?"

Ahhhh.

[DannyHiggs]

I don't care about the "Holy shit" part, but "Everybody you watch's got his brains in his crotch" is a far funnier line than "Every guy is a snot, every girl is a twat." I think it was Fosse who mad them re-write the line, but regardless of vulgarity, the replacement they wrote is simply funnier than the vulgar original. (And I'm usually all for vulgarity in any form!)

[amysita77]

I love the irony in this.

But I think it would be better if Catherine Zeta Jones was less brash.

[jahangirhussain1]

She says "all you read about today is rape and theft". she forgot to mention murder, the very crime she is guilty for.

[duckduckmoai]

@jahangirhussain1 Ah ah.

Not. Guilty!

[jahangirhussain1]

i simply love Mama and Velma....they rockkkk!!!!!

[eyemakeupfrenzy]

They shouldve kept this in Velma Kelly and Mama are my fav! Is that sick or what? Haha they're so so badass!

[jahangirhussain1]

it's weird to imagine that a killer who has plugged her own sister and husband singin about the loss of class

[jahangirhussain1]

the murderess is actually upset about her lawyer passin off her ideas to another murderess who's also one of his clients

[jahangirhussain1]

no one says "oops!' when they're passin their gas...lol

[katomicbomb]

I love this song so much! Such incredible harmonies, singing such filthy words :) I love how two crooks with dirty mouths can sing about others not having class and I can believe them :)

[Ryanmanification]

It's a shame that they cut this song off the movie. It's such a good song.

[lettiemf]

2 people don't have class.

[jahangirhussain1]

@lettiemf which two people?

[iknowicandance94]

"Now no one even says, 'oops', when they're passing their gas!" <3 <3 <3

[jehdittrichi]

hahahaha Love, love, LOVE that song! So funny!!!!! But so true hahahaha

[karenaime93]

so true.. you should live in mexico and see how this song fits to a T... I also wonder why it didn't get into the movie

[eyemakeupfrenzy]

"There ain't no ladies now, only pigs and whores!" ain't that the truth!? haha

[eyemakeupfrenzy]

I hit the replay button sooooo hard it may be broken!!

[eyemakeupfrenzy]

Catherine and Latifa made the movie!!! Why wasn't this in the movie!?!?

[lizaataada]

The fact this song didn't make it into the movie is simply ridiculous.....by far one of the best songs of the whole musical

[CVActor1]

And why did they change the ending? The best line in the song: "Every guy that you watch got his brains in his crotch" Gone. Why does Hollywood have to fix what ain't broken?

[lukequincy]

Why wasn't this in the movie?!?!?

[InvaderMel2]

@lukequincy it is

[coldbell1]

@InvaderMel2 no, it wasn't

[InvaderMel2]

@coldbell1 It was on mine, I remember listening to it all the time when I used to be addicted to this movie .-.

[coldbell1]

@InvaderMel2 you're right I'm sorry..in the cinema version there isn't, but in the dvd yes ^^ I've read it on wikipedia!

[nth0636]

i think someone mistakenly slipped and their finger landed on the dislike button...

[6teenNikkiandJonesy]

"The song "Class" was filmed but not used because it could not fit into the "show-within-Roxie's-mind" concept. It is included as an extra on the DVD release." -IMDB

[mabiniss2]

This song is funny.

[ElleClaraMusic]

They shouldn't have cut this out :( xx

[musicismymommy]

why did they take this out of the film????

[6teenNikkiandJonesy]

[Northernism]

"every girl is a twat" heeheehehehehe

[beatrice8780]

This is brilliant. Next somebody should come up with a song explaining that you don't have to be rich to have manners or money to be polite. A lot of people seem to asociate class with being Posh rather than just good manners.

[cgueyser]

@beatrice8780 it called Countess Luanne De la sepps "money can't by you class" dont bother listening, it's terrible

[DeCaffinatedPlease]

The song likely wasn't in the movie because of it's more traditional musical presentation into the story, unlike all the other songs which are presented as Vaudville shows in Roxie's imagination, Roxie has no reason to imagine this occurring and even knew they were discussing this (as it's subject matter suggests this song would appear in the scene when Velma and Morton are listening to the broadcast of Roxie's trial).

[clockworkfiction3]

@DeCaffinatedPlease

I think it wasn't in the movie because it would have given the movie an "R".

This is a great number though. I remember getting the soundtrack to the movie back when it came out and wondering if I had heard this song in the film.

[NickNet1]

HEY! Why did they take this music off the movie? I liked it...

[angelface561]

now noone even says oops when there passing there gas lol made me laf so hard

[emopinata12345]

"All you read about is rape and theft!" coming from a murderer. :D I love this song so much!

[LilianaFonseca]

@vincentdebroglie that's ur opinion and u're intitled to it =)

i'm not saying it's my fave from the movie, cuz it isn't "^_^ i would just love to sing it cuz of the lyrics xD

[maszlagma]

I love this! So ironic it hurts! A murderer songbird and a corrupt jail-guard singing about morals! Genius!

[ChristineTheHippie]

@maszlagma LOL, I know! It's funny and it's also great because these two are saying "We don't have any class but neither does anyone else"

[KristevTarotlynx]

@maszlagma This is a song these two have no right to sing. Yet it works.

[jahangirhussain1]

@KristevTarotlynx yea, you're right. I think that's why this song was cut off from the film lol

[lizzyvance]

I love this movie. They are both so good at this song. This song is so true. Chicago rocks.

[LilianaFonseca]

lmao xD

luv this song...!

i hope we can sing it in the musical we're making.

i just can't choose which part i like the best!!

velma's or mama's!

[Monkeeperson]

the sad thing is this song is true.

I wish the good old days were part of the here and now!!

♥

[RukisxGoldxPants]

this song is all to true.

[MrNiceGuy1422000]

@RukisxGoldxPants too*
