LE JAZZ HOT
From "Victor/Victoria"
(Music: Henry Mancini/Lyrics: Leslie Bricusse)

Victoria
'Bout twenty years ago way down in New Orleans,
A group of fellers found a new kind of music
And they decided to call it...jazz,
No other sound has what this music has.
Before they knew it, it was whizzin' 'round the world,
The worl was ready for a blue kind of music
And now they play it from Steamboat Springs to La Paz.
Oh, baby, won't you play me
"Le Jazz Hot" maybe
And don't ever let it end.
I tell ya, friends, it's really something to hear,
I can't sit still when there's that rhythm near me.
Also, baby, "Le Jazz Hot" maybe
What's holdin' my sould together.
Don't know whether it's morning or night,
Only know it's sounding right.
So come on in an' play me
"Le Jazz Hot", baby,
'Cos I love my Jazz...
Hot!

All
Before they knew it, it was whizzin' 'round the world,
The world was ready for a blue kind of music

Victoria
And now they play it from Steamboat Springs to La Paz!
When you play me "Le Jazz Hot", baby,
You're holding my soul together.
Don't know whether it's morning or night,
Only know it's sounding right.
So come on in an' play me
"Le Jazz Hot", baby,
'Cos I love my Jazz...Hot!
Love... Jazz...
Hoooooooooooooot!
"Le Jazz Hot!"

ps- if you would REALLY like to know more about this movie (it's NOT a musical), go to imdb.com <- THAT is a movie site (for ALL the movies ever- foreign, movies you've never heard of, indies, EVERYTHING, and ppl, too- writers, producers, tech crew, EVERYTHING-- ok, i'm done)

you know... lately I've been gettin' into this series about a bounty hunter named Stephanie Plum by Janet Evanovitch, I don't particularly know why I'm advertising, but they're helluv funny (seriously L.O.L., ok, and now you guys will not think it's funny) (IF you read it)

oh, and tara, i have officially read "girls in pants" (the 3rd installment of sisterhood) and yeah... ok just thought i'd mention that one

yea, and dan patterson has a new series out.... anyway... too much information, i'll just leave you guys with "le jazz hot" and "cabaret"
