Wizard and I from Wicked- Lyrics

[SOUNDSOLDIER1521]

i sing to this song all the time i love it

[iAnastasia1]

Well thank you Elphie for summarizing the whole play for us in ONE SONG!

[safara1011]

The awkward moment when Idinia Menzel played in Enchanted, and didn't get to sing... :(

[LalaLandgirl1001]

I had to use this for foreshadowing in english a little while ago!

[babybunnylover01]

i want to be like indina when i'm older :3

[broadwayfan24601]

The one thing that slightly annoys me about this performance is the way she pronounces "good"- it just seems nasally to me. But I don't really care, I looooove this song and I love Wicked and Idina Menzel! :D

[valeskaloke]

i love wicked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ItWasMyTime]

Oh my, such great act, look at her lips, she has great expressions

[GaiaGirl2468]

I have never seen the play but I love the songs

[samsledje]

OH. MY. ACTUAL. GOD. What a voice.

[ElphabaMondayRide]

I had to take one breath a few days ago, so I'm gearing up to not have to take any. LUNGS OF STEEL!

[cokiolop]

@ElphabaMondayRide I'm doing this play in school and i came up with it and i'm elphie!

[flipflopssing]

@cokiolop Who Hoo!

[FaeLunaMoonShiner]

@cokiolop You're so lucky! Good luck, and have fun!

[RockinTheMusic14]

I got the belt at the end. Without dying. I felt very proud of myself! :)

[AnnieNesh]

@RockinTheMusic14 Me too :)

So proud!

[cherrypop146]

Favorite song. :I

[Strawkitty11]

When you think about it, she did get what she wanted.

Someday they'll be a celebration throughout Oz, that's all to do with me.

I'll be so happy I could melt.

When people see me they will scream.

Did anyone else notice that at the beginning of the finale song they play the tune that goes with a celebration throughout Oz?



[elphielover247]

@Strawkitty11 Yes, they reuse a lot of themes exactly for that purpose, so people will understand the irony.

[cutiepie33ful]

@Strawkitty11 i most definetly got that!!! i wasnt sure if it was a coincidence or something

[ReneePw]

@Strawkitty11

She didnt melt.... it was fake

[1335ginger]

@ReneePw But the Ozians didn't know. They thought she really did melt.

[AiMXBenson]

WOW I like Idina´s singing voice love the song specially the end^^

Great video thanks! :)

[jbLover9811]

that song is so freeing :)

[Maranedy]

This will make a good animation film....

[PrincessMioneKag]

MY GOD THAT IS A LONG ENDING NOTE

[moomoofan11]

@PrincessMioneKag try singing it in a school talent show! i nearly had a fit :/

[CrystalLightning1]

@PrincessMioneKag its really not if you conserve your breath, just kinda hold back a bit then gradually let out more! ;)

[elphielover247]

@MrTimbapuss2011 I know right?

[MegaNCISFanatic]

@elphielover247 at 2:15 the very first line u wrote "once i meet the wizard" its "once im with the wizard" but i only found it after i went over it like 400 hundred times. and this is the best wizard and i on youtube. so good job

[jazzy123love5]

u suck learn how to spell

[elphielover247]

@jazzy123love5 I think you suck more. You is spelled "you", not "u". And there's also a thing called PUNCTUATION.

[jazzy123love5]

@elphielover247 wow its funny how your dumb-bitch-ass-self would look at ALL of my qrammer and punctuation just to make a point thats quite funny so wait does that me all of your veiwers suqck because they chose on their own terms not to spell correctly bitch.? dhatsz what i thouqh hoe

[elphielover247]

@jazzy123love5 Thanks for coming back to my video just to reply to my comment and continue this meaningless conversation. I just got one more view on my video, so it's not my time you're wasting. One other thing, if you're going to defend your grammar and punctuation, don't spell 50% of your rant WRONG.

Have a nice life.

[rentheadangelcollins]

@elphielover247 Hon, tis a troll. I know they're evil little things and annoying as hell, but might as well ignore the guy...I'm glad he's not shown up again, but believe me, they're easy to spot, especially when they do suck sad things as (not sure if it's the case here) purposefully misspelling their rants to you, just to irk you more and continue the fight. They feed of annyoance and malice. XDD LOVE the vid. You are awesome, and misspelling isn't that big a deal.

[elphielover247]

@rentheadangelcollins Thanks! I'll have another video up in 2 days at the latest. Any requests?

[rentheadangelcollins]

@elphielover247 Hmm...Not really. For some reason the only song I can think of is the Doom Song from Invader Zim(T.T It's stuck in my head...), and those aren't really even lyrics...it's a word. XDD

[nutmegstrachan]

Ok I know I'm being a little annoying but TRULY does NOT have an E in it!

[elphielover247]

@nutmegstrachan I know it doesn't. Is there a typo in the video?

[1313hahaha]

Aww this song is so cute and hopeful :-)

[Tashwampa]

It's ironic how she says there will be a celebration to do with her in the future. They sure do ;)

[superluper89]

I SO SO SO look forward to seeing it this winter. They're going to be in town performing Dec 15 - January 1 in Indianapolis. :D Any thoughts or advice before I go? Would enjoy insight on my favorite collections of music and Musical!

[snowyangel97]

@superluper89 I have no advice but 2 things, first thing, i hope u have alottt of money cause i went to london for 2 days, the first day i was htere i went to see it and i was TOTALLLLY blown away i forcoed myself to spend the rest of my money the next day going back to see it again, then i cried coming home from london i just wanted to stay in there forever and yeah, it's a realllly addicting and the other thing, i really hope u enjoy it and have loads of fun!! xP xo

[magicboy534]

haha so basically shes been waiting her whole life to meet her dad ahhhhh sweet irony XD

[chw2645]

3:46 and a bit beyond appears in Defying Gravity (sheet music) for some reason...

[elphielover247]

@chw2645 Yes, Stephen Schwartz while writing the score, put that theme in a lot because Elphaba sings the same basic line "Unlimited, my future is unlimited." When it appears in Defying Gravity, it's "Unlimited, OUR future is unlimited" because she sings to Glinda, and in For Good she says, "I'm limited, just look at me, I'm limited" because she is telling Glinda goodbye.

[chw2645]

@elphielover247 OH! ;D Thank you!

[soyyoj]

great (yet ironic) song! (3

[DraculasDaughter13]

@elphielover247 hillarious

[BreakingDawnsHoliday]

I went down to LA to watch this with the Choir Class it was awesome! And we saw the Original Cast which was just too good! I loved it! didn't get home till about 1 am on a school night but nonetheless it was awesome and completly worth it!

[CoconutHorse]

I have this on my iPod but it's charging -_-. You know you listen to it too much when you know exactly when Elphaba's part starts. On my iPod, it's at exactly 50 seconds =D. I adore this song, even if it is really ironic in places. Going to see it November the 7th! :D

[mylilsta]
