Evita is such a male heavy show that it's refreshing to have another woman sing. I also think the show needs something there to portray Eva's ruthlessness and Peron's weakness. He leaves it to Eva to clean up his mess. She treats someone in the same situation as she is in very poorly.
"Another Suitcase in Another Hall" is a song recorded by Scottish singer Barbara Dickson, for the concept album, Evita, the basis of the musical of the same. Another Suitcase in Another Hall Lyrics: I don't expect my love affairs to last for long / Never fool myself that my dreams will come true / Being used to trouble.
I also think it's there to show the path many girls are in but Eva is able to turn the tables and become the most powerful woman in the country and rebrand herself as a saint. I don't think it's an effective song when Eva sings it as was done in the movie. We have to see another woman who isn't Eva. If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them.
You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
SporkGoddess Profile Broadway Legend joined: Jimmy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? It's almost 9 PM! Just don't give the damn song to Eva, as in the movie. Doing so reeks of pandering "Oh, how will we make Eva sympathetic? GlindatheGood22 Profile Broadway Legend joined: I've always taken it as a chance to indicate what easily could have happened to Eva had she not been so determined not to let herself get kicked around.
For the same reason it doesn't really work in the movie. It's crucial that Eva leaves Magaldi, not the other way around. Wynbish Broadway Legend joined: Her ambition started in that life, linking up with Magaldi. She didn't want to find fame and success because she was tired of bed-hopping. She wanted to, because it was in her the whole time. Ken Russell was the first director attached. His first choice to play Eva was Barbra Streisand, who turned him down. His second choice was Liza Minnelli, who he screen-tested, but her casting was vetoed by lyricist Tim Rice, who wanted Elaine Paige, who had originated the stage role in London.
Paige was also Rice's girlfriend. Seems like something she would jump at the chance to do. I would only add that previously we see Eva turn the tables on Magaldi and on a succession of powerful men each of whom is a predator who preys on young girls. She's practically an angel of feminist retribution! Turning out the Mistress so coldly is another matter entirely and is the moment when Eva show her true colors.
I have no source and may be wrong, but giving the number to Madonna reeked of caving to a star's demand that her character be likable, IMO. In the movie Eva was more likable because Madonna played her that way thought the film, but if someone as fierce as Patti had played her, then we would be looking at that brief sympathetic moment in a whole new way. I'm glad Barbra turned down Evita, she would've turned it into a Comedy. She sings about her "get lost" treatment by the middle classes in Buenos Aires: Screw the middle classes! I will never accept them! And they will never deny me anything again!
My father's other family were middle class and we were kept out of sight, hidden from view, at his funeral. And as for fortune, and as for fame I never invited them in Though it seemed to the world they were all I desired They are illusions They are not the solutions they promised to be Is Eva actually being sincere when she sings that or is she just being a lying bitch?
Then once she sees that she has their attention it almost seems like She Jumps back at the microphone to seal the deal forcing me to wonder if DCFMA is just Eva Acting?
I love How patti acts this song cause she just takes it to a whole other level. The Part i am talking about is at 3: Jersey Boys Save on Tix! What exactly is the point of 26 Posted: Bandanas was good though. What exactly is the point of 27 Posted: I agree with Ray, with her persona she would've been spectacular in the role. What exactly is the point of 28 Posted: I thought Patti was a revelation in both "Evita" and "Sunset Boulevard" despite bad reviews in both.
The mistress clearly knew what she was doing sleeping with an older man, and yet there is something expletive about it as well.

Dickson was enlisted by the songwriters to record the track after hearing her previous work.
What exactly is the point of 29 Posted: What exactly is the point of 30 Posted: I wish they brought the Hal Prince staging back instead of the current one about to go on tour.
