@mTownMovieMaker really since when I saw Wicked I got a book that has all of the lyrics-even of the songs not on the cd like Nessa's song and it says that its "the wizard and I"
This is really the best version of this song -- Idina characterizes a younger, hopeful and more vulnerable Elphaba perfectly. I've heard no one sing it better. Differently, yes. Better? No way -- Idina has it all.
alexia khadime sings this the best, she is simply WOW!! ive heard lot of people sing this, but she is just the best. Shes in the West End production, just amazing. Her voice.... cant put it into words x
When I sing it (I'm...er...adequete) the hardest part for me is not the "...and IIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!" It's the "with meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeand I'll stand there with the wizaArd..." it's hard to do that all in one breath, by the end of the song, I'm about to pass out. :D
when u get to the 'and ill' theres a slight pause there, if you take your breath there before you say 'stand there with the wizard' you should have enough breath to sing it, if you still struggle it mite be worth you checking out breathing control techniques online, as they really do help x
How on earth do you hit that 'team' note at the end??? Its quite a big jump (im not musically trained or anything like it but singing along with the cd i couldnt hit that note if you paid me!) good luck x
Next year my school will be doing The Wizard Of Oz. After watching Wicked I want to try the wicked witch of the west.(Elphiba)And it's all becouse of wicked!!!!
some day I want to be in a broad way production of wicked but i doubt that I am good enough

At the end she says "the Wizard and lie" not "I." Funny little fact there.

i love that very first bit Idina sings; "that could help me meet the wizard" - the notes and rhythm is lovely. Idina is such a wonderful singer!! xx

This song and "Something Bad" both start with a teacher saying, "Oh' Miss Elphaba." It's wicked.
(Pun Intended)

It's a bit hard, but I've got it. The really challenging song is "Defying Gravity" I mean woah!
And the hard part of this song is:
"With meeeeeeeeeeeee and I'll stand there with the wizard"
cause that whole part, if you do it correctly, is done in one breath. took me a while to be able to hold it without sounding horrid.

Little girl "icomeandgobybubble" does that part without a breath...sounds pretty good : )
