"I also have never gotten the love for 'Money Makes the World Go Round.' It works in the movie because of what can be done in the movies."

Interesting. What is it about the number as filmed that you feel can be done in the movies but not on stage? I assume people like the number because the melody is catchy, the lyrics are clever, and also I think people like the way part of the song is sung as a "round" (I guess that's what you'd call it). But maybe you would find the number worked better in the stage version if it had been retained as a duet between Sally and the M.C., rather than as a number for the M.C. with the women's chorus.
