I adore Kristen and Idina. And I don't really see why everyone has to compare them to Chris and Lea. IMO, Kristen and Idina did a much better job, but that's only because Lea is /not/ Elphaba like Idina is. In her own way, Lea was amazing, but she's NOT Elphie.
@naparstnica idina and kristen were the best glinda/elphaba and you are comparing a live performance to a pre recorded track. And many people knew about this show before glee and wouldnt compare it to glee. I love glee and wicked so much too
@aerohead03 I'd say both Chris and Lea sound better. Personally don't like Kristin's voice. About not blending you're talking about Chris and Lea or about Idina and Kristin? I suppose about the second duet :)

Two years ago, I was part of a five-week program teaching acting, singng and dancing to a group of developmentally disabled adults and teens. The last day, the staff and volunteers sang this to the actors to let them know how we felt about them and how much the experience had changed all of our lives. There was literally not a dry eye in the room, and thinking about still brings me to tears.
this song has put into prespective why i am still friends with my best friend...we get into constant fights but bc i knew her i have been changed for good
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.
@silverwolf5145 She actually really cried most of the shows. She isn't acting; she actually feels for Idina and she cries. She doesn't cry on every recording.
I'm so sad I didn't get to see this pair..they're amazing and especially Idina with her gaunt cheeks, distinctive mouth and dark hair just looks perfect for the part!
tried having a go at this my self, let me know what you think? dont know if im any good haha, check on my channel andd comment if you can? much appreciated guys :) xx
this song is so beautiful but it always makes me sad. we usually sing this song at the end of every school year and it fits the mood perfectly, expecially when you're graduating. Talking about the past and the people who have affected us and how the helped make the person that we are and will be. Its just bitter sweet. Beautiful none the less
i love idina and kristin. my friend and i are actually singing poker face sung by idina and lea michele at a chorus event!!!:) i get to sing idina's part sooo excited
I love idina and kristin but I also have to say last night teal and katie on broadway really hit it. Teal absolutely stole the show as elphaba. She really is giving her all in this role. If you haven't seen teal play as elphaba i strongly recommend you go!
This sounds amazing!! Wicked has some of the most beautiful songs! This is one of my favorites, along with 'Defying Gravity' and 'No One Mourns The Wicked' :)
this song really means alot to me because the last time i seen my friend before she died we were singing this infront of our friends on her birthday x it always makes me cry x its so beautiful
I love these two, the thing I dislike about Idina singing for good is when they both sing "and none of that seems to matter anymore" and there's that long note and Idina goes higher, it sounds very strained.
They are artists. That is a fact. In that fact, I have tried so hard to except them as my favorites.. but I cant. My heart in this musical will always belong to TEAL WICKS and MEGAN HILTY. They are amazing. I just dont see what Kristin has on her...

@TheExotiiqua Being the original, more or less. People are usually very loyal to the first person they ever heard in the role and the people they have on the CD.
@TheExotiiqua I saw Wicked with different people in the roles as well, and I loved them. But I also see that Kristin and Idina were crucial ingredients in making those roles so indelible, and making the show the huge success it is - and enabling people like me, who don't live in NY, to see it in my own city. No one says they have to be your favorites - just a tip of the hat to these two for originating the roles and doing such wonderful jobs with them.
@Lost23280 Dude (well, person), the person who made Wicked, Ryan Murphy, is the same one who made Glee. Course he's gonna use his two stars to rise Glee's fame
For good means so much to me and to my girl friend... Everytime there is a miss understanding or doubt in our relationship the song cure all the pain and spring forth hope a new hope. We believe that man is inherently good. It is our nature. And a duty to nurture love. It reminds us of the journey we were able to traverse, challenges that we were able to overcome. To my best friend, my angel, my girl friend. I love you.
Kristin Chenoweth and Idina Menzel will forever be the best Elphaba and Glinda <3 no contest. these ladies made Wicked what it is today= amazing <3 They will forever be a part of these characters. and they lit the flame under Wicked that's still burning today <3
...the thumb turns GREEN when you like peoples comments <33 likethis!
@EtniesBoy13 They haven't gotten along since they were in Wicked together; it was only exacerbated by Idina winning the Tony that Kristin had also been nominated for.
@eleraama That's the biggest rumor about Wicked, but it's never been confirmed. Idina & Kristin have stated many times that they are super-close friends, but other rumors are that idina slapped her for real during the fight scene, and that she hurt kristin's neck. but i personally believe that all the rumors are false
this is the musical embodiment of nostalgia - despite the fact that it makes us feel that we wish we were back in a world that never truly existed, but maybe that's because they made us believe that their world truly did exist.
and i'm quite sure that this song stimulates nostalgia because i haven't even seen the musical, but i definitely want to see it.
I dont mind wether theyre sapranos or altos or anything in between all i know is that theyre both amazing and I look up to both of them and can only hope that me and my alto voice (well, so they say tho i do get up there high) are going to be up on stage all in green one day:)
Actually, Kirsten Chenoweth is a coloratura soprano, and Idina Menzel is a soprano.
Sarah Brightman is a coloratura soprano as well.
If you look at Kirsten's and Sarah's history, it will describe their vocal range. Which is far more than a mezzo, considering mezzo is inbetween soprano and alto. Where as a coloratura can sing all the way to the endo f the piano with rapid oscellation (aka vibrato). Idina I am not so sure, I don't follow her career as much as the other two.
Actually, Idina is a mezzo with belt, but Kristin is definitely a coloratura soprano-just listen to "No One Mourns the Wicked" and "Thank Goodness"! You have to be a soprano to sing like that!
@bastiantotalhappy actually idina is a mezzo-soprano with a belt. the belt lets her to hit high notes and it becomes a bit of a virbrato but her regular voice is lower than Kristen's.
oh really? :o I think she must though, cause she sings a little lower. I always thought elphaba's part was a little easier to sing. except for the high parts in defying gravity and stuff xD
This was 4 days after I saw WICKED for the first time on my 30th birthday -- 11/6/03. I will ALWAYS remember that show for the rest of my life. I've seen it 4X since, with SJB, Eden and twice with Teal. All good shows, but none of them compare to the OBC show. SO GLAD my first time was with Idina & Krsitin. LOVE THEM! Thanks for posting this. ;-D
Nothing and no one can touch these two. That's just it. That's how it is and that's how it will be. Idina and Kristin take these roles and just turn them into works of art. Plain and simple.
I agree but the original cast of the German production would blow you away, especially their Elphaba. Somebody has put the entire album on youtube. It is called Wicked - Die Hexen von Oz. The song Defying Gravity = Frei und Schwerelos.
Hummpphh. Lots of the lines in her last show, werent complete, becuase she was too choked up. Yes she was crying throughout this whole song, but she was way more upset during her last show.
This is not Kristens (g(a)lindas) last night. If you listen to the ;ast show, the lines come out of their mouths differently. But these 2 did bring so much emotion into this song, truely magical!
I saw Wicked on Broadway in March and recently saw it again in San Francisco and it was amazing both times. I really wanted to see it while it was in Seattle since I live near there but so it goes. It's such a fun show that I would recommend it to everyone!
I just saw Wicked for the first time last week. It was the greatest musical I've ever seen. So complete, compelling music. I was choked up during this scene. Especially when Elfeba says "it well maybe that we will never meet again in this lifetime". Good stuff.
Did you see it in Seattle last week or somewhere else? I saw it here in Seattle two days ago for the first time the day after I saw Wizard of Oz also for the first time. I LOVED this musical and this song at the end, i was crying SO HARD.
Yes Rowelle. It was my first time seeing the musical and every song was powerful. My friend that went with me said the performance wasn't as strong as the Original Broadway Cast but the song and emotion was still there. I would love to watch it again just to be engulfed in the experience again.
I miss a lot of musicals because none of my friends want to go with me and I don't want to go by myself. I need a Broadway Buddy! Oh and my friends are broke hoe's who don't want to spend $80+ to see a show and I'm used to spending $150/ticket which is worth it if the show is great :)
well think about it, go by yourself (pay for one ticket) just get a really good seat like front row or something, or go with friends that cant pay that much and sit wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy in the back haha
True. But honestly, I'm worried about what people at the theater will think of me. "Aww, poor guy is going by himself." Most times I end up buying an extra ticket and taking a friend with me which sucks because I know they won't be able to pay me back.
I'd rather it be Glee than Kidz Bop.

oh really? :o I think she must though, cause she sings a little lower. I always thought elphaba's part was a little easier to sing. except for the high parts in defying gravity and stuff xD

@Disneydanny elphaba is sung by a mezzo who can belt, and glinda is a soprano usually.

This was 4 days after I saw WICKED for the first time on my 30th birthday -- 11/6/03. I will ALWAYS remember that show for the rest of my life. I've seen it 4X since, with SJB, Eden and twice with Teal. All good shows, but none of them compare to the OBC show. SO GLAD my first time was with Idina & Krsitin. LOVE THEM! Thanks for posting this. ;-D

Nothing and no one can touch these two. That's just it. That's how it is and that's how it will be. Idina and Kristin take these roles and just turn them into works of art. Plain and simple.

@dallywinstonfan101 I think Kristin and Idina will forever be the only true Glinda and Elphaba for us all!! Nobody can beat them!!! :)

I agree but the original cast of the German production would blow you away, especially their Elphaba. Somebody has put the entire album on youtube. It is called Wicked - Die Hexen von Oz. The song Defying Gravity = Frei und Schwerelos.

Have seen "Wicked" at least a dozen times with several different casts but none can touch Idina and Kristen!!! Bravo ladies!

They're making a Wicked movie based on the musical :]
I think they're keeping original cast members. :]
I'm almost moved to tears... you can hear Kristi crying through it, it's so sad. D:

Hummpphh. Lots of the lines in her last show, werent complete, becuase she was too choked up. Yes she was crying throughout this whole song, but she was way more upset during her last show.

This is not Kristens (g(a)lindas) last night. If you listen to the ;ast show, the lines come out of their mouths differently. But these 2 did bring so much emotion into this song, truely magical!

Come out differently is an understatement... She freakin' cries throughout the whole song! It's gorgeous!

I saw Wicked on Broadway in March and recently saw it again in San Francisco and it was amazing both times. I really wanted to see it while it was in Seattle since I live near there but so it goes. It's such a fun show that I would recommend it to everyone!

I just saw Wicked for the first time last week. It was the greatest musical I've ever seen. So complete, compelling music. I was choked up during this scene. Especially when Elfeba says "it well maybe that we will never meet again in this lifetime". Good stuff.

Did you see it in Seattle last week or somewhere else? I saw it here in Seattle two days ago for the first time the day after I saw Wizard of Oz also for the first time. I LOVED this musical and this song at the end, i was crying SO HARD.
rowelle 2 years ago
Yes Rowelle. It was my first time seeing the musical and every song was powerful. My friend that went with me said the performance wasn't as strong as the Original Broadway Cast but the song and emotion was still there. I would love to watch it again just to be engulfed in the experience again.
pnutz409 2 years ago
Yeah, I want to see it again too. I just don't think any of my friends would want to go with me :( They're bitches who don't like musicals at all.
rowelle 2 years ago
i feel ur pain! i only have one, and she's been hanging out with the "popular" girls latley. looks like she's more like galinda than i thought.
tstarkis 2 years ago
I miss a lot of musicals because none of my friends want to go with me and I don't want to go by myself. I need a Broadway Buddy! Oh and my friends are broke hoe's who don't want to spend $80+ to see a show and I'm used to spending $150/ticket which is worth it if the show is great :)
rowelle 2 years ago 3
well think about it, go by yourself (pay for one ticket) just get a really good seat like front row or something, or go with friends that cant pay that much and sit wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy in the back haha
jewey896 2 years ago 6
True. But honestly, I'm worried about what people at the theater will think of me. "Aww, poor guy is going by himself." Most times I end up buying an extra ticket and taking a friend with me which sucks because I know they won't be able to pay me back.
