80,000$ for this just to scrap it !

This. Looks. Terrifying. The trees and and stuff is scary I thought the trees arms were HUGE spiders😭😫

I read somewhere that one of the reasons they took this song out was because it would’ve dated the movie so what it’s a freaking good song and I bet the dance looks like cool too.

Woooahhh... !!

This was cut? Noooo! It looks so good!

Ehh, I think I'm kind of glad they cut this out. Given how scary it was supposed to be when they enter the Witch's forest on their way to bring her broom to the Wizard, it seems like adding this scene would have been something of a Big-Lipped Alligator Moment that would've induced some Mood Whiplash.

I’m glad they cut this song. It’s terrible

Why did they delete this from the movie but the musical has this

Listening to this is has actually made it my favourite song from the wizard of oz 😂😊 i wish they had kept it in its just fabulous

The fact I hear her constantly singing candy store is crazy as it contrasts this totally

The best cover ever EVER

The main reason this number was cut wasn't just expenses- it was also because it featured the original actor for the Tin Man, Buddy Ebsen. But after the aluminum dust used for his makeup got in his lungs, he was unable to film much else, so he was recast, and they didn't have the funds to redo this number.

I’m glad this was cut from the film, it’s a terrible song

Just finished a musical production of The Wizard of Oz. The Jitter was my favorite number. Still sad I didn’t get to see it would the cast in costume.

Hot damn carry a note much?

For decades, I wondered what the wicked witch meant when she told the flying monkeys "I've sent a little insect ahead, to take the fight out of them." Of course, that little insect was the jitterbug! So glad for home movies, so we could see this!

Thank you, that's amazing

I’ve been watching this every year since it dropped 8 years ago! Still can’t get enough

YES!!!!! I'm just starting singing lessons and I love singing high, so this and her version of Gethsemane are perfect for me to practise along with 😁😁😁

Beautiful song, Beautiful performance

Only true Ozheads get this.

Judy's singing was just wonderful in this film clip !! I can see why the dance scene was cut because it just doesn't fit in with the rest of the film. Yet, on the other hand with this scene cut it doesn't explain why the lion has a butterfly net, the tin man a gun, and the scarecrow a mallet, after they leave the castle. The one area of the film that I thought could have been reworked is near the end when Dorothy throws water from a bucket onto the Scarecrow and it accidentally splashes the witch. I thought a hose connected to the castle wall would be a more realistic scenario than just the bucket sitting all by itself. A great film and all of the actor's did their very best with the limited technology in 1938( Film released in 1939 ).

That was awful. Great call to remove it.

We did this song in my theatre troupe’s version! My sister got to play a Jitterbug.

A wonderful number in itself but the movie was so much better without it

The wizard of oz should have been a tv series so it can fit all of the deleted scenes in the movie

The note on "Jesus" is almost a full note flat. It takes her until the next verse to get back in tune.

I just got off set doing the musical for this and forgot they cut this song from the movie version

I’m glad more people are recognizing this. When my high school did the Wizard of Oz last year, we actually added in the Jitterbug scene.

Pure perfection. What a woman! I am smitten. Just incredible. Love the sass, the sheer bloody confidence and exquisite raw talent. 😍

Saw him today in Les Mis, best voice of all.

Utter Shite

Randy Randy Randy Randy! I'm glad I finally found the song that inspired "The Bunker Boy"!

Is she singing this in the key of Bm instead of Dm?

I was a jitterbug in the on a stage production.. didn’t even know this was part of the film that was cut.

this song is stuck in my head and it's just like so eerie and creepy but something so good about it, but its just so creepy but stuck

Rob is a triple threat!! Good looking, good actor and a brilliant singer

It was cut from the final film

Does anyone know why they changed the 7/8 bits to 8/8? Ridiculously good performance, of course, but I didn't love that decision.

Given The Wizard of Oz's status as one of the greatest films of all time, The Jitterbug is quite possibly the most famous deleted scene in movie history. Can you imagine how awesome it would be if they someday found actual footage of it somewhere? The film world would go nuts!

Watch it at the Theater Yesterday from Fathom Events, and when this Musical Sequence was brought up, curiosity kicks in. Pretty cool Sequence. It’s a shame it was cut out.

It also appeared in the Tom And Jerry Wizard of Oz sequel.

Beautiful voice.❤🎉😊 Eric Fong

This is a very cute rendition of a popular song and dance. But sadly the possible reason that it got cut was to no pun intended cut to a chase.

This excellent song and dance number should never have been deleted from the movie! I love it!

You made it your own! Original!

Still brilliant, Jodie!

I'm glad they cut this number out. It was a good call. The song is too swing-like and jazz like; and the rest of the score is very traditional. It would have stood out and would have hurt the overall continuity and the tone.

I love this movie! Why Oh Why Oh Why was this scene cut ??? Definitely a little on the creepy side ... This is what makes it great

Oh how I would pay billions to be Jodie's neighbour❤️
