A Boy Like That / I Have a Love
Ariana DeBose Lyrics

A boy like that who'd kill your brother
Forget that boy and find another
One of your own kind
Stick to your own kind!

A boy like that will bring you sorrow
You'll meet another boy tomorrow
One of your own kind
Stick to your own kind!

A boy who kills cannot love
A boy who kills has no heart
And he's the boy who gets your love
And gets your heart
Very smart, Maria, very smart!

A boy like that wants one thing only
And when he's done, he'll leave you lonely
He'll murder your love
He murdered mine
Just wait and see
Just wait, Maria
Just wait and see!

Oh no, Anita, no
Anita, no!
It isn't true, not for me
It's true for you, not for me
I hear your words
And in my head
I know they're smart
But my heart, Anita
But my heart (a boy like that)
Knows they're wrong (who'd kill your brother)
And my heart (forget that boy)
Is too strong (and find another)
For I belong (one of your own kind)
(Stick to your own kind!)

To him alone, to him alone
One thing I know
I am his (a boy who kills cannot love)
I don't care what he is (a boy who kills has no heart)
I don't know why it's so
(And he's the boy who gets your love and gets your heart)
I don't want to know (very smart, Maria, very smart!)

Oh no, Anita, no
You should know better!
You were in love, or so you said
You should know better

I have a love, and it's all that I have
Right or wrong, what else can I do?

I love him, I'm his
And everything he is
I am, too

I have a love, and it's all that I need
Right or wrong, and he needs me, too

I love him, we're one
There's nothing to be done
Not a thing I can do
But hold him, hold him forever
Be with him now, tomorrow
And all of my life!

When love comes so strong
There is no right or wrong
Your love is your life

He will never be safe here

Se, lo se

And no one will ever forgive him.

Will you?

Yo can't ever ask me that

Will you forgive me?

Te quiero, mi niea
For he will have to go away, and you will have to go with him

ANITA
A boy like that who'd kill your brother,
Forget that boy and find another,
One of your own kind.
Stick to your own kind!

A boy like that will give you sorrow.
You'll meet another boy tomorrow,
One of your own kind.
Stick to your own kind!

A boy who kills cannot love,
A boy who kills has no heart.
And he's the boy who gets your love
And gets your heart!
Very smart, Maria, very smart!

A boy like that wants one thing only,
And when he's done, he'll leave you lonely.
He'll murder your love; he murdered mine.
Just wait and see,
Just wait, Maria,
Just wait and see!

MARIA
Oh, no, Anita, no,
Anita, no!
It isn't true, not for me,
It's true for you, not for me.
I hear your words,
And in my head
I know they're smart,
But my heart, Anita,
But my heart

Knows they're wrong
And my heart
Is too strong,
For I belong
To him alone, to him alone.
One thing I know:
I am his,
I don't care what he is.
I don't know why it's so,
I don't want to know!

Oh no, Anita, no, you should know better!
You were in love, or so you said.
You should know better . . .

I have a love, and it's all that I have.
Right or wrong, what else can I do?
I love him, I'm his,
And everything he is
I am, too.

I have a love, and it's all that I need,
Right or wrong, and he needs me, too.
I love him, we're one.
There's nothing to be done,
Not a thing I can do
But hold him, hold him forever,
Be with him now, tomorrow
And all of my life!

BOTH
When love comes so strong,
There is no right or wrong,
Your love is your life.

SO GOOD, i love how realistic this rendition is, in that they actually sound like they are arguing and not fighting to sing over each other. Anita also sounds hurt and genuinely concerned for her, not just enraged. this is my favorite number from the film! i also loved "maria"

All the vocals are originally done by the actors like the film "Chicago". Rita Moreno singing "Someware" gave me shivers and tears. She is fantastic. I also thought the use of Spanish through out the film was brilliant . Although the film didn't make big time money it was to be expected due to covid19 and also the demographics of age appeal. The original film in 1961 had bad reviews but with time became an ultimate classic.

@omergiguere2105

2y↑15

"West Side Story " will eventually become a major classic like the original did. Steven Spielberg is a top notch director and visionary. All four actors came across brilliant and had great chemistry.

@omergiguere2105

Back in 1960 I memorized all the songs from the movie. Not many musicals now have singable songs.

Think what you will about Maria and Tony's relationship, but the point was never to show off romance. The point was to show how hatred can kill innocence and goodness even in children. Maria and Tony were KIDS. They met at a dance and decided they liked each other but somehow that innocent relationship snowballed into a fucking gang war. Maria insisting that she stay with Tony is the last vestiges of her childhood innocence FIGHTING to stay alive despite the violence going on around her.

The story isn't about "two dumb teenagers thinking they're in love." It's about TWO KIDS TRYING TO BE KIDS AND BEING UNFAIRLY PUNISHED FOR IT.

@iconoclasticistherr9965

2y↑24

This is there in the original Romeo and Juliet too. Juliet even has her doubts but Romeo is all gas no brakes. I guess they left that out in West side story, which makes the enchantment scene at the dance all the more important. That scene is one of the weaknesses of the recent rendition, although I loved it overall.

Yes, definitely!

@johannastromberg1224

She has a lot of tallent, but I do think she would more classical training. Plus i dont know her range. The duet phantom of the opera gets to a high e.

She could potentially make a great Christine.

She would be so good as Christine.

@kaepiper

@Johanna Stromberg i’m not a musical genius but her voice can go pretty high!

@johannastromberg1224

2y↑20

@ana k/ yes! She is a high soprano. Ive ovbiously never worked with her. But i know the music from WSS and POTO very well, and PHOTO is a lot higher, and more vocally demanding. The character of Cristine is a classically trained opera singer, and Rachel has openly admitted to having no formal training. So to do the role convincingly and in a healthy way night after night, she would definately need more training I think. That's not at all me trying to diss Rachel, I am just trying to be honest. She has a very lovely voice, great natural clear tone and nice placement. Lots of natural tallent. Just to do such a role justice, she would benefit from more training.

thank god they used the original stage musical version rather than the cut-down version of the earlier film. The stage version is so much more powerful.

@thefirstbourne149

2y↑48

As someone who did not see the stage play. I agree that this is more powerful. I am intrigued when they fight via this song. Now I can kind of see where Spielberg actually drew from the stage play.

@oonchuanyeoh1590

2y↑5

I have listened to the version of the earlier film countless times, and I don’t find any part that’s been cut.

@MREmusique

2y↑19

@Oon Chuan Yeoh listen at around 1'20".
A Boy Like That and I Have a Love are superimposed for a long time. The new film version, despite being at a faster tempo, lasts a whole minute and a half longer than the 1960's version. The first film cut out the superimposed two songs. It goes directly from A Boy Like That right into I Have a Love.
I have the Broadway score in front of me. The new film version is almost exactly the stage version, while the earlier film is not.

@David Güiza listen, I love Dunst, and have obviously been a fan of hers longer than Ariana DeBose (since she’s relatively new), but it’s DeBose’s to lose at this point.
Also, it would make sense—Anita tends to be the part that walks away with the trophies—Chita Rivera, Rita Moreno, Karen Olivo. I’d be extremely surprised if DeBose doesn’t win, which she deserves to.

Poor Anita. Having to go through a traumatizing experience more than once…no wonder why she is on the verge of exploding throughout the song. But Maria too, you have to feel bad for her. She is now being forced to grow up fast and is trying to tell her best friend that everything was a mistake.

@JumbaFan

2y↑35

I don't feel bad for Maria at all. She and Tony didn't know enough about each other to be in love; they were in lust, if anything. Anita gets all of my sympathy.

Tony killed Maria's big brother, a man she's known her whole life. All it took was Tony saying that Bernardo killed his bestie and he just lost it, and Maria was like, "Oh, okay. Sounds legit. Let's bang!" She was young, dumb, horny and selfish. And Tony was an idiot.

This was a GREAT version of this song, though, and these actresses have a lot of talent!

Tony killed her brother regardless of accidental, she was insane for still following behind him.

@cicihoustonsudholt1452

Yes to all of this... except Bernardo was also a killer that night. He was also the first to kill, whereas Tony was avenging his friend's death. Personally, I'm against all of that violence, but you can't write off one character for violence over an equally guilty opponent.

I ALWAYS get emotional after listen this song and this remake made me cry. I love they added the little bit at the end, replacing the original lines from the script, with something hard for Anita (Ariana DeBose) to overcome and Maria (Rachel Zegler) asking if she can; giving this genuine bond grief and sorrow, and in the midst, acceptance.

Although "West Side Story" didn't turn out a major blockbuster, there are reasons such as covid19, appeals to an older crowd (baby boomers). But most of all Steven Spielberg took a chance and I applaud him for that. For me WSS will remain my favorite of all movie musicals.

I definitely agree. The trailers aren't showing ANYTHING. I think it’s to bring the surprise to everyone in theaters, but we are not in the 90s anymore, the younger generation needs a wider preview of the performances.

Ariana slayed the song so hard that the song walked around for 3 more days not knowing it had been slayed.

I know I’m probably wrong but I always saw this song as Anita projecting her feelings about herself onto Maria because she found out in this movie that Bernardo kill the rest so it’s like she’s talking to herself when she says a boy who kills cannot love

Oddly enough this song kind of made me think of the Queen Of The Night ballad from the Magic Flute, espically during the operatic opera parts

4:08 Anyone expect to hear them sing “Your love is…” three times like Lin and Raul did?

I love this a lot, the performances sound GREAT my only critique is that in my opinion the beginning with Anita is done just the tiniest bit too fast

But what I do like about this song though. In the original it seemed like Maria was preaching to Anita. But in this version Maria saying she already to far gone to back now.

As a trumpet player in Kenton's production here, happy to be on Maria's side

Here's what I don't get, your boyfriend who admitted to having a troubled past and almost killing a kid in a fit of rage, kills your brother in a fit of rage, and all you do is slap him, forgive him, and sleep with him?

Her brother killed someone as well. You think she shoulda just let Tony turn himself in?

Thing is Bernardo killed Riff before he died. If he lived and Anita found out, how would she rationalize it? Would she even rationalize it at all? She says Tony cannot feel love or compassion since he's a killer. How would she go about saying the same thing about her own lover? Would she even say the same thing? Just a hypothetical.

That's why Maria says "you should know better". She's reminding Anita of the hypocrisy in that statement

Both actresses should have Oscar noms. This was better than the original. Rachel was better than Natalie.

I agree, but Natalie and Rita were also held back by the movie standards of the time. If they had been given the freedom to go there dramatically, it would've been interesting to see what they could do. Also, without their own singing voices in this scene, it's doubly hard to give a cohesive dramatic performance.

Imagine coming home from seeing your dead boyfriend in the morgue and finding his killer in your best friend's bed at her consent.

I feel so bad for Anita.
