Lol. We did it that song on time like a flashmob in our class in the middle of a lesson. When we finished our teacher just said "Ok this was AWESOME but please sit down we gonna' discuss the 2WW now"
I love this movie!!! America is my favorite song because Bernardo and his friends are telling the truth. That was the reality for the puertorricans who lived in NYC those days....BTW, I'm puertorrican.
I assume that the Puerto Rican "destiny" and obstacles in the US was taken as an example of the American hypocricy and could very well be understood by African-, Native- and Mexican Americans. And I am very sure that millions of the "minority" audience understood it !
one of my favorites

That is literary meant,,,,,,
That meant the Situation of the Portorician Emigrant People ,who live in America in this Time.
The where most in thier own World.
A bit like Chinatown.

What's with the thumbs down lol? Just stating a fact.

I love this song a lot.

I guess you were rated down because you ignored the subtle difference between "one of the most famous" and "the most famous".
