Amneris: Women:
In life one has to face a huge assortment
Of nauseating fads and good advice
There's health and fitness
Diet and deportment
And other pointless forms of sacrifice
Conversation? Wit? I am a doubter
Manners? Charm?
They're no way to impress
So forget the inner me , observe the outer
I am what I wear and how I dress
Oh now I believe in looking
Like my time on earth is cooking
Whether polka dotted
Striped or even checked
With the some glamour guaranteeing
Every fiber on of my being
Is displayed to quite remarkable effect
From your cradle via trousseau Ah
To your deathbed you're on view, so Ah
Never compromise, accept no substitute Ah
I would rather wear a barrel Ah
Than conservative apparel Ah
For my dress has always been Ah
My strongest suit Ah
Overwear
Underwear
Anytime
Anywhere
Staying in or hitting town wards Ooh ooh ooh ah
From the top and working downwards Ooh ooh ooh ah
I ensure that every stitch Ooh ooh ooh ah
Is stitched in time
Whether wig or hat or turban Is stitched in time
Whether clad boudoir or urban Ooh ooh ooh ah
Not to strut your stuff Ooh ooh ooh ah
Outrageously's a crime Ooh ooh ooh ah
Such a crime
And the few who are invited Oooh overwear
To my wardrobe are delighted Oooh underwear
As they wander through my things Oooh anytime
To find en route We're wandering through your things
Ooh negligee
That in negligee or formal Ooh anything but normal normal
I am anything but normal
Ooh ah
For my dress has always been Overwear, underwear
My strongest suit Anytime, anywhere

Fun fact: before this was a stage musical, it was originally almost a Disney animated movie, and then there was talk of a live action movie, with Christina Aguilera as Amneris and Beyoncé as Aida. I really REALLY would like that movie though.
Beyonce? WTF! I'm so glad it fell through. I like Beyonce but Aida is not the role for her.
And this song in particular was actually given to The Spice Girls 😅
I would have watched that movie if Beyoncé was in it😃
Beyonce is a beautiful singer but a horrible actress, so glad this didnt happen
I saw this in person and this scene was one of my favorites. Lady acted the hell out of this role. "My strongest suit!"
Agreed. This is Sherie Rene Scott I believe her name was. Idina Menzel also was Amneris but her performance was nowhere near as good as this.
This song is literally my autobiography, play this at my funeral with a slideshow of me slaying lewks
😂😂😂😂
Keep'em coming sis
Yassssss!!!🤣🤣🤣
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼
please revive this musical. please.
There is talk of them doing a revival or tour, led by one of the original broadway cast members.
They are reviving it now!!!
I bet Leslie Kritzer would rock this role. I'd love to hear her rendition of this song especially.
I'm dancing too this song for competition dance this year lol! It so far it is really fun!!!
This song is awesome and underrated! :D
I agree the song is EPIC although I never seen Aida before
The song sounds like a fashion show done Motown style! Awesome
i have a musical theater dance mad complicated to this song, but I love it.
Ugh, what a bop
I feel like I am in the show with my earbuds in 😁
I saw this in New York in 2004 with Vanessa Williams... It was.. Amazing
This is going to be my solo song this year!!!😄
Good luck
This is going to be my Solo song this new year too!
@@bellashonk4649 good luck
OMG SAME!!!❤🎉
Im in a play for this and this is my favorite song and dance of the robe:)
My school is doing a musical revue this year and I get to sing this song. Just one more month until opening night 😙
How did it go?

I'm auditioning for this musical with this song in two days O_O I'm so nervous
what happened?
I had a callback for the part of Amneris, but I didn't get it because I was quite a bit younger than everyone else. It's high school, so totally understandable! My senior year I did have to pleasure to be the lead female role of Nina Rosario for In The Heights ☺️
@@GrandmaGlitter23 can’t believe you replied after 8 years
Whoever wrote the lyrics was either high or drunk or both, because a normal 9-to-5 peons don't think like this... I love it
I hear some of "Crocodile Rock" in this!
I have to sing this for singing lessons... ooof
The One Who Tried good luck girl
Same!
Im doing a show in my school on this song
My sister do this play from her school and she is Aida
Just did this at my school
I made up a dance to this !! lmao
0:40 dont mind this just a time stamp for when the song starts
oh wow, you're just afraid... aren't you? Scared of the first few verses? haha \o/
Does anyone here suggest any one's else versions of this song that were in other people's own play's
i sing this as a solo in my school musical soon o.O
1:46 (just a mark for me so I can listen to my auditon cut)
I’m using this as an audition song for Chicago
0:40
Seohyun of girls generation brought me here 😍😍😍
Me too
2:54

☺️
3:26 don’t mind me just putting this here for our dance number
this voice actor sounds younger than the actor at my high schools performance of this show
AMNERIS
Viver é passar por uma_infinidade
De (pe)quenos sacrifí/cios da bele(za)
Há die/tas, cirurgi/as, malhação
Pro corpo_adquirir certa firme(za)
Pra quem quer cau/sar boa impressão()
Charme, (simpa)tia, não vão ajudar você
Procurar no_interior será em vão()
Pois eu sou aqui(lo) que você vê
Acredito que na vida, se você_está mal vestida
Os de/feitos é_o que o/bservarão
E portanto eu me rendo, aos detalhes eu me prendo
E me vis/to pra_alcançar a perfeição
Pois se desde_o nascimento ao desapa/recimento
Sempre haverá um o/bservador
Assim cada polegada, deve ser incrementada
Ninguém liga pra bele/za_interior
MULHERES
Pra vestir, pra usar
Pra_esconder, pra mostrar
AMNERIS
(Es)tando em ca/sa ou na rua, a esco/lha é só sua
Se você vai suas fa/lhas revelar

Quer revelar?
AMNERIS
De peruca_ou de turbante, estou sempre deslumbrante
Não esconda se você pode se mostrar
MULHERES
Vem mostrar
AMNERIS
Um barril eu / vestiria, mas jamais bi/juteria
Pois a moda dito sem tirar nem por
MULHERES
Dita moda por onde for
AMNERIS
E por isso eu insisto
MULHERES
Por favor
AMNERIS
E com graça eu me visto
MULHERES
Muita graça
