That's the most masculine tambourine shaking I've ever seen.

[@valeedits7024]

as an italian, I don't understand how I never knew about this before. This is epic.

[@williamgardiner2010]

It's a song from Maury Yeston's musical Nine, based on the Fellini film 8 1/2

[@Kurt77777]

This version/adaptation sucks. The actual movie, Nine, was infinitely better. I would recommend you buy the DVD. This song was so much better in every aspect in the film.

[@Pepella]

“Be italiaaaaan” said in the most french way possible 😂

[@eduardasartorio8932]

Pepello yeeeees

[@lyndenb6566]

Oh gosh, great in every way but I could not agree more.

[@peterveseskis2624]

Pas non Monsieur. En français est " be itallllieeen . Par le nez.from the nose

[@jojo9402]

Lol right

[@flavianofloris4459]

Ahahahah was amazing

[@kyo2590]

THAT 👏🏼 CHOREOGRAPHY 👏🏼 THO 👏🏼 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@robertgraziano]

From the musical "Nine" usually performed by women but these guys hit it out of the park! P.S. I am Italian.

[@monsieurromanbedlam5101]

I freaking love the intensity in this, like wow.

[@lastblacksmurf]

Damn, that unison during the tambourine dance.

[@robertgraziano]

I'm Italian and I approve these men!

[@Myrdwin]

I would gladly hold "this" ! Won't have to ask me twice ! Brilliant performance !

[@ANTINUTZI]

... As Los Cubanos know, "Say nothing, do *everything".* Thusly honoring the great Bob Fosse's monumental breakthrough of simultaneously sculpting the entire stage space using shape and composition is an instant hard-on. I would *kill* for 3-camera intercut closeups ...

[@Arthur-ls3ku]

Those are his husbands and boyfriends. That is his harem

[@zyxw2024]

I counted. Total 13, on stage. Just like Jesus Christ & the 12 Apostles. Harem.

[@dougr.2398]

How would YOU know?

[@songbird989]

No wonder Italian is my favorite dish! I'll take one to go please! LOL

[@JDAD2844]

My god what a bunch of hot men!!! Awesome Performance :)

[@tramvinicyus2]

+Jan Di Well...."men" please....don't overdo it....

[@PSbark]

Bella, bella.... always love a tarantella!

[@kennethyosores7249]

very nice choreography and the timing is very impeccable

[@ilikeralphfiennes]

Oh MY! so many hot guys dancing!

[@maybethistime6813]

There's nothing about this that I don't love! Amazing!

[@daniel_8181]

I am italian and this is seriously good :-)

[@neilhorner9197]

Amazing....just amazing! Loved it.

[@raztipnoirtip]

Reminiscent of the original Tommy Tune choreography however he can’t beat the powerful voice of the late Kathi Moss. They did upgrade the tambourine routine and I think it works much better than the sand used in the movie.

[@icyhugs]

I'm melting.... I'm melting!

[@Theatrenut]

The line give my cheek a pat, he patted the wrong cheek!

[@shelleynobleart]

Flawless! Such fantastic choreo! And singing and performance. Wow!

[@marinablades9375]

I wanna be one of those tambourines .... don't judge me

[@peterveseskis2624]

Finally a proper theme song to " Be Italian."

[@patrickchrist21]

Such a wonderful song!!! All the men performing the song are so hot.

[@francescasc3519]

I'm italian and I love this video! :D

[@willfellid]

i can say by far this perfomance was MUCH better than the movie one

[@guillermolobo1]

voglio essere italiano solitamente per questo!!, i wanna be italian just for this

[@AliceSeveri111]

*solamente not "solitamente" =P kisses from italy!

[@alicebettuzzi6390]

Yup "Solamente" not "solitamente" there are different thing.

[@robertgraziano]

I love his "instrument"

[@ellenspear7368]

An entertaining number in its own right -- thank you, fellers. I was expecting a bit more twist to a song that richly deserves a parody. On second thought, the original is a parody itself, so all these guys could do was a better version of it. Bravissimi!

[@mcmanpa]

+Ellen Spear I was hoping for more twist - too faithful for mine.

[@CatatonicDodd]

They. Are. Fantastic. I'm all a-flutter! ❤️

[@lmarkas]

Absolutely fantastic.

[@TheWindsofWonder]

I actually prefer this over the original.

[@sweeney60]

Me too!

[@denis65]

That was fantastic

[@EthelChop]

That is magnificent!

[@alexrikard]

maravilloso!!! hermosos hombres!!!!

[@DaTrianGames]

I got goosebumps 😍😍😍

[@Razbunyik]

Damn! As for me, Iike the ladies, but I gotta say, that was some hot number!

[@ChunkySalsa_BSU]

So distracted from working. I don't want to sound like a desperate thirst, but look at all those muscles....

[@robertjohnson2885]

Perfect... Amazing

[@deepalmer3960]

Wow! Omg!

[@tonicastel5933]

That was brilliant!

[@cecilia____2184]

[@andreamarcelabritos]

[@aldinga50]

[@mariaregina-ix9xj]

[@fernandabluntkrasinski9026]

Is there a Cell Block Tango performance singing with men 😄? I love it

[@deepalmer3960]

Fernanda Blunt Krasinski Ha! Yeah!!! I’d love to see THAT!

[@icecreamandtravels]

Miscast and also Broadway Bares channel have one each

[@Caio0_057]

There's one on Broadway backwards as well

[@joshelizondo2523]

The performance is great but his Italian is dreadful

[@Razbunyik]

Yeah, but when a guy looks like that he can speak Pig Latin and still come off good.

[@petradonovan5161]

Bravo! Brilliant!

[@kkw6170]

[@nemesiguercio2568]

[@Opheim1986]

[@santiagovidal5812]

[@deltaloraine]

[@antoniob.italia79]

[@hospitalgal101]

I'm jealous of those tambourines

[@MarcosVinicius-tr9sg]

Whoa! Great version! But I missed Fergie's voice!!

[@ronricci3407]

Va bene!

[@xadam2dudex]

[@Arthur-ls3ku]

They are male dancers for Twisted Broadway, an Aussie theatre company that performs songs intended for the female gender. The vocalist is Mike snell

[@samaelkylie]

Easy: none

[@Arthur-ls3ku]

@@samaelkylie I hope that guy with unbuttoned shirt & six-pack abs is single

[@jojo9402]

[@davide418]

[@johnthornton73]

[@johnthornton73]

just just pushed the 'read more ' button.

[@user-uz9lk1yb4f]

i can't sleep what's the main singer's name?

[@Arthur-ls3ku]

Michael / Mike Snell...kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2azooCvlrR3bpI

[@eugeniohuerta8290]

Guaposs

[@florenceale]

im italian but i dont feel any empathy for this guy

[@MICHAELHUGHES-ik7iq]

Why are men better than women in BE ITALIAN?I wonder.

[@AirglamGuru]

iTALIAN MY ASS. He sounds totally French. Lol.

[@mzmiller52]

Tommy tune meets fosse. Would be great if they knew how to convey having fun and the singer had some stage presence or star quality.

[@clubsnatcher]

He doesnt have much of a voice.

[@Xscottnyc]

I am a bit let down. Actually not sexy or sensual at all. There is nothing forbidden or subversive, which the original has and what one would hope from something like this kind of re-imagining. More cruise ship that theatre. And it is very entertaining and somewhat titillating. There is nothing more revealed by having this particular group of men doing this number. A nice Disney like, technically well executed rendition. What still shines through is the writing.

[@Arthur-ls3ku]

Respectfully, I think the guy with unbuttoned shirt is sexy with his six-pack

[@beartotal5570]

so gay!😊

[@peteralfano4278]

great but "You want to make a WOMAN happy?" with this bunch of guys? :)

[@chrisbadillo3179]

Super not!

[@yassinemanai8807]

hell no 🤮🤮🤮🤮

[@samantha.maxis1217]

[@mrst.sh.z.8610]

Bravo!!!
