Hi guys, I would like to write my favourite songs from West Side Story, ready?

1. America

I love how the movie interpreted this song, where Anita and the girls sing about why they love the US and the boys interjected their opinions about the US before it ended in a dance.

2. Tonight

It's been covered by many artist and Il Divo is one of them, I prefer both movie and Il Divo's rendition, the latter version has more upbeat.

3. I Feel Pretty

This song is really interesting, because it is like Maria's friends voice out their opinions about her. Interesting fact, Santino Fontana used this song for his audition in Disney's Frozen with some minor changes in the lyrics though!

4. Somewhere

Another song that was covered by Il Divo and Jackie Evancho with Babra Streisand, I prefer the latter as well as the movie version for some reason.

I Want to be in America!

So, only 4 songs make it through the cut, which are your favourites?
The rumble!
The rumble!

Another song that I like is America, because Anita manage to stand up to her belief on her opinion on America, I also like how the boys countered...

Tony and Maria were so very happy together. They loved to cuddle, kiss, and sing to each other. This young couple was truly meant to be. Tonight was very chilly because it was late autumn; the two lovers were snuggling in bed together. They were so warm and cozy when they cuddled against each other. The room was aglow with candlelight. Tony’s chest was bare, and Maria was wearing only a lace nightgown. These tender moments were pure heaven; it was almost like nothing else in the world mattered. Tony adored his beautiful girlfriend; gazing at her filled his heart with joy and love. Maria felt...
