[@velvetbooks9099]

What I really love about these songs is that they show very accurately the differences between ways of making music in the 60's, for Amber, and the other two girls' version, it is very inspired by the sounds of little Peggy March, Lesley Core, and Joannie Summers. And for the Dynamites' version, it's clear how they are a representation of the power trios of Motown Records, such as The Supremes, The Marvelettes, and even The Ronettes. I have always loved that detail about this part

[@laminage]

Excellent point! In The UK alot of Boyband/Girlband Icons do "Cover Versions" of songs by Chic, Diana Ross, Dan Hartman, Adina Howard and even Freak Me By Silk that went to Number One in The US and Another Level did their Version that went to Number One in The UK.

[@TahtahmesDiary]

And also the taking of Black music and talent and white washing it then being indignant and dismissive of said Black talent.

[@callmeonkeshiasphone]

The Clara ward singer (a gospel girl group) performed at surprisingly the playboy club in 1960 ( here on KZbin) and the jump around dancing and gospel break down are very similar to the singers here.

[@peteradaniel]

Notice how post civil rights movement most of those white artists singing this music, pretty much disappeared, because up until then the only that defined “white music” was skin colour. Whereas many of the black groups under Motown had a resurgence in the 70s with Philadelphia sound and disco and were able to survive well into the 80s for some.

[@Hsftlabb]

Exactly !

[@cjripley32]

This is brilliant storytelling. The song seamlessly transitions the story from the narrative of Amber's jealousy of Tracy to the tensions of segregation and Von Tussle's attempts to undermine and take advantage of the black performers/Maybelle.

Children need more movies like this. This film had so many powerful messages and executed them so well and genuinely. I love how they pointed out how much talent the black girls had compared to the white girls. That they had to essentially work twice as hard to be met with not even a fifth of the credit or success they were entitled. I remember watching this as a kid and it really opened my eyes to so many things I took for granted and helped me better empathize with all kinds of people. Love this film.

[@AGR04]

I especially really appreciate Cornie's line in the movie: "Isn't this where it's all headed anyway?" It's commentary on the civil rights theme of the movie that goes beyond just The Cornie Collins Show, just their studio, and just integrated TV. It's an acknowledgement that even if things change for their studio, that doesn't mean the fight is over. This is an issue the whole world is gonna have to address, and heaven help them in they're not on the side of justice.

[@softmoxymuffin2351]

i love both versions. i especially love that the movie makers didnt try to make the first version bad compared to the second. just a different sound. but you end up liking the second more because it's their original song that gets stolen like what happened at the time the musical takes place. mini history lesson

[@unbothered8740]

[@kaylao.3326]

The second was better. It’s ok to admit that

[@allythebean0420]

This was a very important scene where you see how the same song can have two different versions. The "White" Version got more airplay and the "Black" Version was limited to The Black Community. Remember they did that in Dreamgirls with The Cadillac Song.

[@supernnnnlive]

laminage That's not quite right...although I do agree with the overall statement, in Dreamgirls "Cadillac car" represents the fact that "white people" took original songs from the "black people" and took credits for it. Where as "The new girl in town" represents the fact that two equally (the word "equally" is very subjective here) parties aka "black" or "white" gets unfair treatment when it comes to broadcasting time, in this case the favour is to the white folks.

[@laminage]

Oh yes.  Growing up, I was stunned to know that a lot of Songs were obscure R & B Songs.  Everyone from The Manhattan Transfer (Boy From New York City), Anne Murray (Just  One Look), Celine Dion (If You Asked Me To), and Cry Baby (Janis Joplin) covered R & B Songs.

I would have really loved to see this song added to the stage musical. I love both versions, how one is very Bubblegum Pop and the other a Motown/R&B version. It would be so fun to see it on stage. The finale with the gospel twist is so uplifting and fun!

I used to watch this movie everyday when I was a child 😂😩. And despite being a musical, it does have many great life lessons throughout
