Movie Song of the Week: “America”

From 1980's The Jazz Singer, it's Neil “You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet” Diamond singing one of his most famous songs. And who's that sitting in the audience next to Sir Laurence Olivier? Could it be Lucie Arnaz? It's about time she was represented on this site.



As a bonus, this week I also post the classic song of the same name from 1961's West Side Story. It's one of the few American tunes I've heard that best illustrate the other side of the immigration story. Of course, this isn't the first time I posted it so if you care to see what I've said about this song in the past, please go here.

I hope you all enjoy both tunes.
