I've always wondered if the scene could somehow just be trimmed to show Ula falling into the pit while dancing to the SE lead-in song that precedes Jedi Rocks. Granted, it's like ten seconds, but I really liked it.

I liked that little piece of music too. Harmonica blues type-a-thing. Sounds more like what I'd expect to hear in that place than either OT or SE songs.

I'm not crazy about Lapti Nek, but I do like all the other music the Max Rebo band plays.

I really hate the SE song. Unlike the original song, it doesn't fit the setting or the mood. I remember sitting in the cinema feeling embarrassed as it played. I looked behind me to see if anyone else looked uncomfortable.
Many did.

Another thing about the SE song is that it doesn't sound anything like the other music the band plays. It's a totally different style and sound. The band in Star Wars plays two songs and while each is different, it sounds like it's the same band playing the songs.
