Текст песни Introduction to Burn (Live) - Lea Salonga

Nothin' like West Side Story
A little Bernstein, a little Sondheim
To get the blood pumping for the second half of the show

Not that long ago, there was a Broadway revival of West Side Story
And they were proposing something controversial
They were proposing to translate some of the original English songs
The lyrics from English into Spanish
And who did they get to do it?
Lin-Manuel Miranda
He has a little show called Hamilton
Oh, you've heard of it, fantastic

Um, at the end of this year
A West End production of Hamilton will open
And currently, in Miss Saigon
There is a young Filipino singer named Rachelle Ann Go playing Gigi
Well, she's not gonna be there for much longer
Because she's going to be playing Eliza Hamilton in the West End
Oh my, I just saw her in New York
And she is extremely excited to get started

So I thought, playing tribute to another Filipino artiste
Who is making her own way in the world
This is the song that she's gonna have to sing eight times a week in London
And I wish her only the best of luck
