  • One of my favorite songs. I found it because of Dalton :)

  • The memories this song brings: before I graduated high school, we had our Thespian society induction and my friend put this song in a clip show he made with all of us in it. Needless to say, it was a very emotional moment for all of us :( I love my thespian friends so much :)

Forgive me for my selfishness, my stubbornness, and all the times I hurt you, as I forgive you. I'll miss you every day for the as long as I may live. Together, we changed the world.

  • we're doing this song and efying gravity in our chorus concert......why must my chorus teacher pick the two songs from wicked that make me cry...

  • take me away to that special place! (That blow job place!)

  • Glee <3 .

  • I REALLY WISH I CAN WATCH THIS MUSICAL!!!!!!

  • @stevendjie it was an awesome musical i cryed during this song!!<3

    

  • I love this song!! Check out my cover of it please? :) I need feedback on what to do to become a better singer. Thanksss!!

  • It amazes me how well Idina and Kristin harmonize together. I get chills every time that I hear them together!! I wish I could see the production with its original cast!! Saw it in Nashville this past month, and it was amazing, but oh the original cast would be PHENOMENAL!!

  • ELPHABA

    I'm limited:

    Just look at me - I'm limited

    And just look at you -

    You can do all I couldn't do, Glinda

    So now it's up to you

    (spoken) For both of us

    (sung) Now it's up to you:

  • I've heard it said That people come into our lives for a reason Bringing something we must learn And we are led To those who help us most to grow If we let them And we help them in return Well, I don't know if I believe that's true But I know I'm who I am today Because I knew you: Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes a sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you I have been changed for good
  • ELPHABA It well may be That we will never meet again In this lifetime So let me say before we part So much of me Is made of what I learned from you You'll be with me Like a handprint on my heart And now whatever way our stories end I know you have re-written mine By being my friend: Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a skybird In a distant wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you:
  • GLINDA Because I knew you: BOTHI have been changed for good ELPHABA And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness For the things I've done you blame me for GLINDA But then, I guess we know There's blame to share BOTH And none of it seems to matter anymore GLINDA ELPHABA Like a comet pulled Like a ship blown From orbit as it Off it's mooring Passes a sun, like By a wind off the A stream that meets Sea, like a seed A boulder, half-way Dropped by a Through the wood Bird in the wood
  • BOTH Who can say if I've been changed for the better? I do believe I have been changed for the better? GLINDA And because I knew you: ELPHABA Because I knew you: BOTH Because I knew you: I have been changed for good.
  • Im a Freshmen in Highschool. I'm crying so much right now, thinking of all the wonderful Seniors that are leaving this year. :'(

  • @jenamitoitoi lol?

  • @jenamitoitoi Aww sweetie, it'll be alright. we've all been there. Those'll probably be your friends for life, trust me. My closest friends are still from HS and college, I'm a sophomore in college now, still very close with HS friends.

    Peace and Love.

  • i just typed in good and this came up!!

  • This is the best song ever! I teared when I heard this in the musical.. Excellent musical!

  • I'm going to see this tonight *o* so excited omfg

  • My Dad Was In A Motorcycle Accident THis Summer And I Played This Everyday He Wasn't Home And I Always Sang Glinda's Part. He's Now Home And I Have My Elpheba Back :)

  • One of my teachers from last year day last Friday. There was a memorial service on Tuesday for him. One of the other teachers, who introduced him to this musical, sang this. It was beautiful, and a lot of people were in tears.

    R.I.P. Mr. Burton

  • I want this played at my funeral =')

  • The most beautiful song in creation. One of the few that makes me cry no matter how many times I freaking hear it or sing it.

  • This song is so beautiful. It makes me smile, laugh, and cry all at the same time when I listen to it. <3

  • Our class song!! CLASS OF 2011 <3

  • The 33 people that have disliked this video really have to get their ears tested!

  • The single most beautiful song I have possibly ever heard. Not joking, this had me in tears in the theatre.

  • i wish they would sell a movie/musical dvd for wicked ): i could watch this musical for the rest of my life

  • This song was a girl from my school's senior duet. It was the most moving performance I have ever seen. When she was in college, she was killed in the Virginia Tech shootings. Caitlin Hammaren, rest in peace. You will not be forgotten. You have changed Minisink Valley for good.

  • corps song :D

  • every year we sing this song when a class graduates from high school, and every year i cry ... and im just a freshman.

  • i cant wait to sing this at my school talent show because my best friend is going to high school next year but i have to stay in middle school.so were singing this song because just like in wicked elphie leaves while glina stays.(im glinda of coarse)

  • this reminds me of my best friends and i's friendship, at one point we hated eachother, liked eachother, hated, then i put this song on his wall and we have been friends since, but he is moving so its like elphabas death, and we know we changed for the better for knowing eachother, im going to miss him soooo much!

  • ........./

  • I sang this for my english teachers funeral and it was an honor to sing it

  • :'D

  • I saw this play. My first broadway play, IT WAS AMAZING.worth every penny.

  • This song makes me cry every time I hear it. It's mine and my best friend's song, and I can remember playing it for her during the candle lighting ceremony at my sweet sixteen, and just hearing the intro to this brings me back to that moment, when I was holding back tears and, quite honestly, wondering why I let her near the fire.

    Thank you Wicked, for bringing me closer to my friend. I hope that one day we will be able to sing this with one another, on or off key, I really don't care. <3

  • me and my friend got to semi finals of an x factor styled competition singing this :D i sang glinda's part... i love it :D 

  • i sang this at my great aunts funeral. i love you and i miss you. you will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN BY ME or anyone else if i have anything say in it.

  • sang this for my 5th grade graduation. SOOO long ago.Beautiful song.

    i remember we had to sing 4 songs, and ALL the kids only knew the words to this song cause it was out favorite. Amazing song.

  • This songs...its so beautiful. I sing this constantly, always thinking about my friends and the friends I've lost, knowing that without them, I'd be different than I am now and I would not be where I am now. Even though my heart has been broken, I acknowledge the fact that without the people I've met, I have no idea what I would not have accomplished

  • Who could dislike this? D:

  • this is my fav wicked song!!! <3 <3

    my bestie and i sing it soooo well together!!!

    she is my elphie <3

  • This song makes me so sad bacause i knew a girl who had cancer and died

    at my middle school graduation choir sang this song :')

  • this song is sooooooooooooo amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love it:) this is like, my song man;)

  • I wonder what Glinda must be going through every time she looks at Dorothy, knowing that the girl had unknowingly "killed" her bestfriend.

  • @kennethdeatras I Feel So Bad For The Wicked Witch Though, Because If Yhu Look Deep Into The Story Nd The Time Line, Notice That Elphaba Died In Wicked, Dorothy Killed Her... So In Between All That Time, Galinda And Elphaba Were Still At Least Tryin To Be Friends.. Its Really A Sad Story.

  • @kennethdeatras well in the play Elphaba lives!

  • @CUBassoon lmao yes I know that. that's why I wrote "killed" because through Glinda's POV, she didn't know that Elphaba was alive.

  • @kennethdeatras separate continuities.

  • Comment removed

  • @baboshekkiii I know what happened. I've watched Wicked since it's inception. What I meant to say is that, through Glinda's point of view, she had no inkling that Elphaba was alive. All she knew was that Dorothy "killed" (please not the quotation marks, it's a subtle hint at sarcasm) Elphaba with water.

  • im a senior and its my last year at my dance studio, and we are doing this whole song for my ballet dance in my recital. i already know im gonna be sobbing :/

  • 33 people are green faced witches.

  • @prawnbutters Elphaba is a green faced witch and she sang this beautiful song. o_O

  • @LiraelRyelle Um yeah but you wouldn't want to physically look like Shrek in a witch hat would you?

  • I get to do a solo for this song from the part "It may well be that we will never meet again"

  • i went to a one week musical theatre camp for teenagers in summer and we alll grew so close cause we were surrounded by each other 24/7 for that week and on the night before our last performance, we all sang this to each other and started crying :') this song makes me sad when i hear it but also so happy cause i know that meeting all those people has changed me forever <3

  • @xxlinnyxx6 Sorry this is a weird question but was it C-A-M-P?

  • @LittleShucker is that an organisation? the camp was with YMT :)

  • When i'm feeling Wicked, I listen to this song and it changes me For Good.

  • Elphaba's going to be melted after this... NOOOOO!!!! T_T

  • it's so sad that this is the last Glinda and Elphaba ever see or talk to each other - EVER!!! T_T

  • this was our senior song at our last chorus concert. <3 imagine all the tears there were...

  • @steenbeanxo It was my Big Brothers too. When he graduated form either ms 51 or hs Frank Sinatra :/ hmmm

  • absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!! Brings me to tears!!

  • I'm singing this song for choir and I have a solo

  • @HughesAM11 oh good luck,you cant get this song wrong

  • We played this in Orchestra for our spring concert last year...we had two of top choir girls sing along. It was so beautiful. :')

  • Playing this in my Orchestra class. May I say, beautiful.

  •  IDOL ♥

  • olivia whyte :) thank you soo much <3

  • miss u mandy

  • this song is too good

  • Wicked turned me into a theatre kid.

  • I admire Glinda's courage and kindness. After all, it must be hard for her to look at Dorothy and knowing that the 'skinny little brat' was the reason why Elphaba was 'dead'.

  • 32 people need to be changed for good :O <33

  • This Is a beatiful song and i love it soooo much. My grandpa died a couple months ago :'( I sang this to him the last time i saw him because it reminds me soooo much of him. I also sang this at his funeral. It was almost impossible to get through it without crying but i did it. 15 likes and i'll do a cover (:

    Love You Forever Grandpa <3

  • @NatalieB987 I know that feeling. My sister used this song as part of a memorial video she and my brother made for my grandmother's funeral service back in July.

  • hhhh

    

  • I'm a freshman in HS. This song makes it hit me - we only have four years left together. I just love my friends so incredibly much, and I'm ready to make these last four years with them the best that they can ever be. Class of 2015<3 I love you guys with all my heart<333333333

  • @JuliaTheBeatleFreak Don't let this years pass you by. Embrace them! I'm a Senior and i wish i did more in high school and my choir went to New York, sang the national anthem at a mariner's game twice and i went to state in five categories last year. Never let anything come between you and your friends. Make these years great!

  • am i the only one who thinks that this song would be perfect in beauty and the beast? with belle singing glindas part and beast singing elphies part(:

  • singing this as one of my music btec pieces. as a solo. and i'm a guy. oh god what have i let myself in for.... i will never be able to match this.... <|:-)

  • Wow, you guys that sang this for grad and such must be tough. I would have burst into tears by the second line ...

    This song is beautiful.

  • after going to see wicked, Ive really started to hate dorothy

  • One of my good friends passed away the other day, and her funeral was today. A soloist sang this. Camille was only 16 when she was taken from us. I've always loved this song, but it has a whole new meaning now. RIP, Camille. Fly high, gorgeous.

  • @MyLifeAsMads I'm so sorry. :( Almost exactly one month ago my best friend's little sister passed away at just 5 years old. I miss her and this song comforts me

  • This may seem depressing, but I want this song to be sung at my funeral... It just means so much to me and the meaning behind it seems just perfect - even though we're parting, being part of eachother's lives has influenced it so much

  • I listen to this song every day. My very good friend was in theatre and she sang this song for our school performance wicked. She was amazing and I miss her every day but I hear this song and just feel so much better. She died last march in a car accident. R.I.P. Megs! Love and miss you!

  • Respond to this video... NOSTALGIA!!!!

  • I dont have a sad story like all of you ^............. this song just brings me to tears every time i hear it;(

  • This is the first solo my sister ever sang to me. This is part of my first marching band show. And even though I'm not the greatest singer in world I hope to sing it for my friends the last year of high school.

  • My Chemistry teacher has just passed, but I am pleased that "I have been changed for the better" by knowing him...

  • Glee brings me here and i am glad of it, because this song is really beautiful and i didn´t know about this song, but now... :)

  • Me and my friend sang this at our Leavers service, it was the first song we did as a duet three years ago and we've been mega close ever since. It kinda became our anthem, and everyone cried when we sang it at the assembly. It's just such a perfect song. I would love it if you could take a listen. Serach Molly Austen and Esme Kendrick For Good.

  • Love this song! I've got the backing track to it on a cd that I bring to every single audition I go out for.

  • we do a dance to this

    :)

  • MY CLASS SONG! :( Class of 2011. Forever. <3

  • this is exactly like my best friend and i. we recently parted ways permenantely, and she refuses to forgive me. and while it hurts, i know that because i knew her, i have been changed for good.

    i'm such a nerd. i'm crying. :')

  • @beduj63 you will be fine give it time and you will be back to normal

  • @richgerry18 thnx. :)

  • Probably my favorite song on the soundtrack <3

  • 32 people people changed for the worse.

  • This song makes me think of my best friend from 6th grade. We were good friends and then... we both changed and we got in a big fight and now we aren’t friends. And the first time I listened to this song was that day. And every time I hear it, I cry.

  • I think 32 ppl clicked the wrong button!!!

    Love this song and this musical its amazing on Broadway!!!!!

  • one of the most amazing song i have ever heard before in my life. it is just so heart filled. and true.i love it to bits.

  • I just heard this to compare it with glee's. It's a much powerful version. Love it

  • unending chills <3

  • 32 people are for bad

  • they are perfect :D <3

  • amazing song<3

  • This song will always make me think of my four years in my high school's concert chorus. Those were some of the best times of my life, and I'll definitely never forget them. As long as I'm living in this area, I'm gonna keep going to the chorus, and even band and orchestra concerts, since they're always fantastic. :D

    (We got an award for having one of the best music programs in the nation! XD)

  • Everytime I hear this song, I wish I could have had the opportunity to tell my friend how much she changed my life, for good. I cried so hard when I saw this live, it broke my heart thinking of her and our friendship, even though things had a sad ending I'm still glad it happened.

  • i think this is a perfect song for that once in a lifetime friendship

  • Oh and who ever disliked this has no fucken soul and should drop dead NOW.

  • I'm playing this song for band and I loved the notes but just listening to it makes me cry and shiver and I need a hug :',) Elphaba? Glinda?

  • completely raped the replay button :L

  • my friend and i sang this for the talent show at our middle school we were both going to different highschools the next year and we broke down in song on stage

  • They played this song at my best friend's funeral. She was 17 years old when she died of a tragic and sudden car accident. This song is a perfect example of my feeling towards her. I love you soooooo much Ally. You are lost, but never forgotten. <3 R.I.P

  • OMG I SANG THIS SONG FOR MY 5TH GRADE GRDUATION WITH THE REST OF MY GRADE!!!!! I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! IT WAS JUST 2009-2010

    wow that seems such a long time ago huh i miss those days

    I LOVE THIS SONG SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH

  • DALTON <3

  • My friend and I bonded over the books a few years ago and he wanted me to sing this song at our graduation. I was all for it til I started practicing and just couldn't get through it without crying over us going our separate ways after high school. An 8th grader ended up taking my slot and sang "the climb" i wish i could have got it together just so we could have had this and not miley at our graduation. xD

  • The dislike bar on this video is like lady gaga's penis, small but shouldnt be their!

  • Me and my Best Friend sing this song to each other a hell of a lot, it's such an emotional song :')

  • @NippityNipNip yeah my friend and i used to too and she was practicly my sister we went thro hell together but i had to move and i cry every time i hear this song....

  • 'I do believe I have been changed for the better' - Best line EVER!!

  • My Sweet Sixteen had a Phantom masquerade theme, but a karaoke machine led to singing general Broadway. My best friend since second grade took the stage, putting on this song. I was nearly crying even BEFORE she called me up to join into the duet. By the end I was practically blubbering. Every time I listen to this song, now, I have to smile and cry remembering that, even five years later. I don't think I can ever find a better friend than her. :' )

  • this song gets me every time!!!!! i feel as if i am leaving my best friend!!!!!!!

    i love elphaba/ Idina Menzel

  • love this i wanna see wicked SO bad

  • My friend is moving away today, and this song had been stuck in my head since yesterday. I've only known her for a year, but we were both involved in theatre, so we became friends fast. I'm going to miss her so much, and this song definitely reflects how much she meant to me.

  • @LeChatPetit I'm really sorry to hear that <3
