It's amazing that this has surfaced. Hearing it for the first time, I might understand why it was not used. The major problem was that Shirley's voice was getting slight at this point, and her singing range was becoming limited. You can tell because she had trouble hitting certain high notes, even to the extent that the middle section was actually transfigured for her range.
This section goes higher as sung by Phyllis Brooks and is the oral climax of the song.
Oooh thank you so much for posting this. I downloaded the song off your site and I must admit I've listened to it about five times in the past ten minutes or so lol.
Very interesting. I've always been nuts about this song in the movie, as done in a rather condensed version by the fabulous Phyllis Brooks. I even tried researching it but could never find anything. The lyrics are wonderful. Did anybody else record it, I wonder? Thanks VERY much for posting this rarity.

It was left out while beta, although it's nice that her song resurfaced as well.
