I've read that ''Boys and Girls Like You and Me'' was cut from ''Oklahoma!'' during the show's Boston tryout. (Or was it then ''Away We Go!''?) Anyway, ''Boys and Girls Like You and Me'' was recorded by Judy Garland and cut from the 1944 movie musical ''Meet Me in St. Louis.'' How did Rodgers & Hammerstein's cutout get into the MGM classic best-known for its songs by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane? Below is a recording of Garland's rendition of ''Boys and Girls,'' however, Wikipedia says the cut film footage has been lost.
