@rubiomasgrande Or so she says.

@rubiomasgrande Actually (and this is my opinion, so it's not true), the big difference is in style. I don't think Rob Marshall was going for sexy when he did it with Fergie. I think the movie was trying to bring out the passion that Saraghina is saying ALL Italians have.

Yes Fergie was amazing, but you cannot compare theatre to movies. There is a big difference between performing all the way through in one take live and lip syncing on film take after take. Love them both so I'd rather appreciate them both for what they are instead of pining them against each other.

i caught myself with my mouth like this *O*

The song is not about Italian women being whores.
It's about Italians being commonly recognized as playboys.
The singer plays the part of Saraghina, a prostitute in 8 1/2, a famous Fellini movie, while she explains love to a bunch of kids. Between those childrens there's Guido, the protagonist, that will grow up as a playboy.
You have to see it in the context of the film or of the whole Broadway show. ;)

@JAMMAICACCOLA you t not wrong LOL it means ''DANCE YOU BITCH'' (to the singer)

Wow, I like this version a lot!!! Fergie was the first one I saw, but as for an actual stage production...this one just wins!!
-
Gotta love those kids. XD
I think it depends what you want and what the artist it trying to portray. The Fergie version is tryign to be more sexy, more brushed, more hollywood. while this version is trying to be more funny and a bit more realistic. I havent seen many prostitutes that look like fergie. These versions are just different but equally good when you compare them to what the artists are going for.

Please, stop the comparisions and start appreciating. This woman is well-trained. I liked Fergie too, she was powerful, but I think we are caught up in the movie media too much.
