Defying Gravity - Wicked

[StalkingLlamas]

it would be a dream being in a show with idina.. but i dont know how i could stand it. i might pass out after hearing PERFECTION. <3

[missingnormality]

I'm singing this for my talent show<3

[StalkingLlamas]

i got chills <3

[MayDukAMO]

Do you see the dislike bar? Nope, neither can I.

[boltzolt2]

@MayDukAMO its th elittle red line at the end of the green one

[thecherrimtree12]

I love Wicked, I also love Glee, but for some reason, when I heard the cover of Glee, I felt bad hearing it... Maybe I heard this cover too much...

[Mrwickedman95]

It makes me sad to know that by the time they decide to make the musical movie of this show, Idina and Krinstin will already be too old to play the parts. :'(

[anaklusmos16]

19 people don't like this song.

[nelliebunny123]

This is my dream role <3

[punkydoodle7]

Thumbs up if you were singing along!!!

[Nejero666]

Yeah, Glee is total pants with the music in it. Not that I'm insulting the kids that sing... they have great voices.... But, no one should have dared try to cover this song in Glee. I love wicked... and only a FEW people have done this song any Justice.

[FrizzKid05]

@Nejero666

Glee manages to destroy whatever it touches. It's so childish. It's like listening to "Kid's Bop" and expecting it to be as good as the original. I hate that show, and that's coming from somebody who has been in choir for years.

[Sophie2Sing]

19 poeple can't Defy Gravity...

[phantomoftheopera346]

Thank you Stephen Schwartz!!!!

[WhatTHeHeckSBMT321]

Forget Glee!! This is the best song ive ever heard

[yoru113]

love to sing this song with my friends in chorus

[tamarajoy06]

i listen to this song like every day

<3it is sooo amazing <3

[tamarajoy06]

18 people think that defying gravity is impossible

[JasperBiteMe]

I went to see wicked 2 times i'm might going a thrid time and i stil cried during I'm not that girl

Defying Gravity and For Good

[sammywoah]

there both on glee kirsten = april ex performer Idina =shelby ex vocal adrenaline coach troubletones coach and beths adoptive mum

[ShadowPoet174]

My 2012 anthem: It's time to try defying gravity... and you can't pull me down.

[CJSinger13]

I'll always have personal memories that can relate to this song. This is probably the most beautiful number of 'Wicked'. I simply just walked out of the thetre repeating, " Mommy, that was absolutely beautiful. I want to see it again."

[LuvBug355]

okay this must be like the best song of all time!!!! 18 people dont have ears

[lorenrose1013]

This song reminds me that I can do anything <3

[winterkitty11]

18 people dont have ears!!!

[Xweetke]

This song makes me cry it's so beautiful <3 I don't have any memories attached to this song, but still I can't listen to this song without at least getting teary eyes.

[JoyoMaus]

My favourite song from the musical :)

[TheFreezz123]

I never saw the musical, but I love the songs.

[passionkiss91]

@TheFreezz123 omg really? your really missing out. Go see it, it is amazing :)

[thaumasphoebus]

I wanted to read the novels by L. Frank Baum, but after this watching this wonderful musical, I don't won't to ruin my memories



[snakeman2493]

what would happen if you combined the musical You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown and Wicked together? be something awesome i hope!

[fiop789]

again comparing? god! both are great! no need to compare, and do not insult glee, if it wasnt for glee i wouldnt know what wicked is! now i love it! :)

[2qbabies]

I'm gunna audition for broadway. Thumbs down defying gravity, thumbs up for popular. I just need advice :P

[msgrisykitty]

I LOVE this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ♥



[mdcrox247]

The ad by this: Harry Potter. Irony?

[nikkicole54321]

i find this song inspiring.

[littlesister505]

you know what? the dislike bar is like a ninja, you know its there but you can't see it! :P

[jsmith823]

I listen to this song AT LEAST once every day!

[almostammazin]

aw this song is so sweet its unreal

[inuyashaobsesser101]

I love Wicked, I was so obsessed with several songs (though I've never seen it) but this...I'd never heard this song before. So powerful...And beautiful.

[TRIXHOMO]

I love both the glee version and the original :D

[presqueislepwnz]

Go to shower song, fo' sho'.

[flyingdragon7777]

epic

[WTF123443]

glee is good and stuff (its my secret pleasure) but THIS is amazing and nobody could ever even compare with this. EEEEEVVVVEEERRRR

[miranda0802]

I love the logo! soo much

[TheJohnnynine]

I was dragged to this play thinking all musicals sucked, but this number completely blew me away

[ZackMeisterStudios]

i thought this was the best part in the musical where they lifted he on the platform. but i wont say anyomore cause i dont want to be a spoiler for people who didnt see it

[kitkatdetective]

I want Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth to be Elphaba and Glinda! I never watched Wicked and I want them to be in it again!

[beautifullydone654]

love this song :-)

[yellowbananas43]

This song inspires me

[bhouse1545]

but my favorite musical is probably Cats

[deicticdrummer174]

@bhouse1545 good to know. ill go write that down next to all the other shit i dont care about. just kidding

but not really

[bhouse1545]

favor song of this musical

[KlainebowVomit]

So apparently you're not allowed to like both Glee and WIcked at the same time? Guys, stop hating in people's faces. Listen to the music you want to listen to and don't listen to the music you don't want to listen to. Simples.

[honorcooper]

@TophMulanRaven AGREED

[Vanixille]

It doesn't matter. I love both this version and Glee's. So please accept it.

[fobmachine21]

@Vanixille i also like the south park version

[Kodocha7]

@fobmachine21 south park version is superior to both glee and the original *giggle*

[AGaroundtheworld1]

ahahah too many "all-times" in that comment (mine of course!)

[AGaroundtheworld1]

I know everyone has said this, but it doesn't matter how many times I listen to this song, it still feels like the first time. I have seen this on Broadway once, with Teal Wicks and Katie Rose Clarke as Elphaba and Glinda (amazing pair I must say!). The entire show blew me away and this song made the entire performance. This show is absolutely amazing and I have seen nothing like it! My all-time favorite Broadway show (or any show for that matter) of all time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[caycayy007]

5:29 ...ahh it makes me shiver!

[ajvox]

goosebumps time.

[viperish5]

Before Wicked..

I tried defying gravity...

I fell on my face..

But Elphaba told me how to defy gravity he right way..

Now I'm a pilot :D

[DancingGirl97x]

SUCH AN AMAAAAAAAAAAZING SONG <3

[ubertekee]

I'm seeing this in January, and this is my all time favorite musical. Defying gravity is my all time favorite song. I could listen to it all day, every day, and I would still get chills every time. And just like I knew I was going to burst when Snape died, I know that I'm going to burst into tears as soon as she rises off that stage.

[tinagirl1992]

This musical is a MUST-SEE!! This part was the most AMAZING thing I have ever heard or seen!! It ia incredible and just WOW! Saving my money to see it again I don`t care how much money it will take!

[ams1812]

kool song

[pwestonzoe]

i wish these two were still in the cast!!!!

[jonaslovatoswift]

i'm sorry, i LOVE GLEE, but it is NOWHERE near as good as this. i love you idina and kristen, you ARE wicked<3

[skpuppy3]

@jonaslovatoswift

AGREED!

[jonaslovatoswift]

@skpuppy3 they didn't even do the starting and its my fave part!

[Gamer359842]

@jonaslovatoswift lol, no one mourns them.

[jonaslovatoswift]

@Gamer359842 mourns who?

[Gamer359842]

@jonaslovatoswift idina and kristen

[jonaslovatoswift]

@Gamer359842 lol what xD? and mourn what xD?

[crazypizza]

@jonaslovatoswift i used to like the glee version. i just watched Wicked today. Now i still like the glee version. but i LOVE this one.

[jonaslovatoswift]

@crazypizza i just wish glee had done the intro, the i hope your happy parts are my favourite :$!

[tamarajoy06]

@jonaslovatoswift i loved those parts too but the best part of the song is definetly if you care to find me look to the western sky part

[MethaneStereo15]

i fucking love this song. I'M GONNA SEE THE MUSICAL:,DDD

[Shawnbfromsd]

Such an uplifting song.

[candeeissuhweet]

Sixteen people were grounded by gravity.

[hero123213xdzero]

Story of Phantom of the Opera is better, but Wicked have catchier songs

[TheDollyTube]

@hero123213xdzero It's a matter of opinion. They are both amazing pieces of art, but they are unique. I can't see how one could be better than the other.

[LizzyHexam]

this is definitely the next musical i'm going to see in london...

[rdiggity1986]

how could anyone thumbs down a song from the greatest play ever created?!? uncultured soul-less bastards

[daftpunk1212]

I don't know why u would want to skip any part of the lines to get to the song. It's all one mind blowing thing!

[NRG4L]

1:17 for the song

[MsBoredom22]

@NRG4L Nope. You skip 18 or so lines if you start there. The main brunt of the song starts at 1:17, but there's still a lot you miss if you ignore the beginning.

[kmwrocket]

just. amazing. gives me chills every time.

[ZchibizroxZ]

I saw this at the Apollo Victoria in London last March. So beautiful!

[terrorrname]

gives me shivers

[mckennalikewoe]

My friend and I were slapping each other during this part because we were SO EXCITED.

[StopEatingMyCookies]

I hope my neighbours like this song & my voice.

[terrorrname]

this has to be my favorite song from the whole show, its so full of emotion, the harmony gives me shivers

[aimuser3111]

Thumbs up if you were all like "WTF is Glee?"

[defleppardrocks888]

favorite song from wicked!

[teapot12mod]

I'm tearing up already so god only knows what I'll be like in December when I'm sat in the audience.

[adivanamemonet]

best play i've ever seen at the Fox THeater in the stl

[Thejalinar]

Stop whining about glee "screwing up" this song...i know its awesome and the musical is too.....but if we compare the musical with the books its not really the same....they did some MAJOR change and the story isnt the same.....

[Denali567]

I saw Wicked September 16th. It was soooo good<3

[petermichaelwakeling]

@Denali567 I saw it March 10 : )

[TophMulanRaven]

I hate Glee being discussed on every Wicked song with Idina and Kirstin. I clicked because I adore this song. NOT because I want to find out about some crappy show, although I admit their[Glee's] voices are ok, IDINA'S & KIRSTENS KICK THEIR SORRY BUTTS!!!! I know you're going to hate me for this, but thumbs up if you agree!

[kevindjur]

@TophMulanRaven If you clicked to adore the song why are you complaining about Glee? Go adore the song like the rest of us instead of being a douchbag :P I love both versiones!

[TheMartin108]

@TophMulanRaven I agree. It bugs me how Glee takes all of these awesome songs, make remakes, and then everyone likes those versions better. Then they have to mention it on these awesome originals.

[TophMulanRaven]

@TheMartin108 THANK YOU!And those other 147 awesome people. I HATE glee,degrassi, all those shows. But I love this musical, but they disgrace the name WIcked,by saying the show Glee. The only Glee I wanna hear is "This song fills me with glee!" I was stunned when I saw I was a top comment! :D

[viperish5]

@TophMulanRaven fuck you.

[frenchtehllama]

@TophMulanRaven 178 people are AWESOME!

[lizzielollipop816]

I just saw Wicked last night.

It definitely is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life.

[Batmanfanatic1]

I WILL SEE THIS SHOW!

[Jedwardmad8945]

@Batmanfanatic1 i seen it on the 3rd sept 2011 in london! its amazing

[Orphinia]

I find it fitting that this was uploaded on my thirteenth birthday.

Maybe I was born to defy gravity.

[sushidylan]

@Orphinia  hahaha...what

[TheSonicLoverz]

This song is wicked.

[bazinga98]

thanks to my sis for me knowing this music :D

[Jedwardmad8945]

I ment 3rd sept x

[Jedwardmad8945]

I love this song! I went to see wicked on the 3rd dec xx <3 In London <3 It was amazing! I could watch it over and over again for the rest of my life! <3 This was my fav song in it! <3 Soz for using words like fav and dec and stuff like that but im only 13 and thats the way people say stuff wen ur my age :D <3 x

[NarutosButterfly]

@FrigginFluffyFursona IT's Elphaba moron

[FrigginFluffyFursona]

@NarutosButterfly Alright alright - - But I hash a question. WHY DID IT HAVE AN 'A' IN MY ENCORE BOOK THINGY? ._.'''

[NarutosButterfly]

@FrigginFluffyFursona I've read the book that this musical is based off of and its Elphaba

[Shikamarukan]

@FrigginFluffyFursona Um, It's Elphaba.

[FrigginFluffyFursona]

@Shikamarukan Alright alright - - But I hash a question. WHY DID IT HAVE AN 'A' IN MY ENCORE BOOK THINGY? ._.'''

[SingingCatzzz]

Love this! :)



[MistyMorningKristy]

15 people have their feet stuck to the ground.

[993Cate]

I love this <3

[TheMollysteve]

No matter how many times I listen to this, I cant get over how amazing it is. wow, goosebumps

[TophMulanRaven]

and one of us has to leave. If so, I'll get a pic of both of us, a copy of this song[in a case] and a sharpie. Ill sign the pic and case and the case will say "I have Been Changed For Good" and the pic will say at the bottom "You'll be with me like a handprint on my heart." the back of the case will say"You've changed me for good. I'll miss you SOO much.Just call meh as much as you can and keep me uptaded!You'll be my BFFATTE![Best Friends 4ever Always 'Till The End.]<3 "Rose".

[TophMulanRaven]

Beautiful. It's so beautiful because I can realate to Elphaba. I'm the short, nerdy smart weirdo nobody likes when out of nowhere., this chick I LOATHED [she's a popular]helps me out and gives me tips[Hey McKenna!][Y'know, if you're reading this. You know who I am! "Rose"*wink wink*]and we became pretty close. Let's see what happens. This all happend in the middle of last year.I hope that one day something happens[TEMPORARILLY!!!I dont wanna lose her forever!!!!]*Continues in second comment*

[forevermusical133]

Put up three years ago and still such a classic. <3

[LozzaMcDeeRocks]

[JokerzPrincezz]

I have goosebumps. ^.^

[qazmko22]

The Ending gives me Goosebumps and I have heard it a million times.

[ChrisRT6]

@qazmko22 Even the beginning gives me goosebumps XD

[Shabang314]

@ChrisRT6 oh well the whole musical gives me goosebumps XDXDXD

[proudlyrushian]

I saw Wicked on the West End in April. I cried during this song.

[dexms4]

Come to think of it, Wicked sort of resembles The Dark Knight...

[CameragirlRileyJ]

I saw this show when I was 11. By the end of this song, I cried. It was the first show that made me cry. I love this show so much. (My mother was crying at For Good)

[000500006]

I'm so glsd i sung this with my choir a few yrs ago.

[WhiteRosex56]

one of the best songs ever created

[KitKatMetzilla]

love. this. song.

all i have to say

[MalarkTheJester]

Totally buying the CD now.

[teamemmett90210]

i sang this ALL day in school today!

[015musicislife510]

Idina Menzel is fantastic!!!!! i love her!!!

[biboy690]

GO VIOLAS!!

[xxxanaxxxx]

this song gave me literally the CHILLS.

Its SO good!

i sang this....1?

about 40 times....

But my sister always tells me to shut up. >:/

Pshh... i STILL sing it! :)

[jajajajoseph]

I like to belt out this song and act like I'm the best singer in the world...lol

[EvilgidgitReturns]

So if you care to find me...look on YouTube!

[Music998Love]

The songs of wicked are just too good... Wish i could see the musical again...

[lshsmusiclover]

I just sang this while washing dishes. XD

[BlameItOnTheBoogie93]

I'm getting Defying Gravity tattooed on my ribcage :)

[penguinMycoco]

@BlameItOnTheBoogie93 Good luck with that... XD 

[MsOctoberstorm]

15 people can not defy gravity

[bkaneshiro14]

Our marching band gets to play this song! SO HAPPY! :D

[chocolateluvergirl16]

@bkaneshiro14 mine too!! I am so excited to play it! haha

[TindraSan]

the glee version (with only Kurt at least) was actually pretty beautiful, but the original is SO MUCH MORE MIGHTY EPIC<3

[Beep12gurl]

Thumbs up if you knew this before Glee.

[hollaythevampgurl123]

@Beep12gurl Glee led me to it, and now it's my 1st or 2nd favorite musical. :)

[zetawatch]

@Beep12gurl what is glee?

[Beep12gurl]

@zetawatch I can't tell if you're joking or not...

[zetawatch]

@Beep12gurl yes

[ritaroxlife]

@Beep12gurl i cant say i did but when i saw it on broadway i totally forgot glee, glee is dirt on the ground compared to the real thing!!!!!

[Beep12gurl]

@ritaroxlife I actually LOVE Glee but the original is always better than the cover.

[ritaroxlife]

@Beep12gurl no dont get me wrong i really like glee but...wicked :)!!!!

[Beep12gurl]

@ritaroxlife Agreed. :)

[ilovemarksanchez]

flawless performance. gave me goosebumps throughout the whole song. amazing voice.

[xxSugarzxx]

Hearing the recording and seeing it live is two COMPLETELY different experiences!! In this recording, you can understand the pain, confusion and acceptance in their voices, but seeing it live, you can see it on their faces how much this is changing them!!

[nnicole918]

everytime i hear this song a little part of me wishes glinda would've went with her. </3 nonetheless i lovee this song :D

[forevermusical133]

@metalmouthgirl99

YES!! I love meeting (well, sort of meeting) violists! There aren't that many well known in the world..our instrument is a bit unknown to the musical invalids!

[metalmouthgirl99]

@forevermusical133

I know!!!

I've been told 'Oh, you play violin?' when I'm carrying my viola to my lesson sooooo many times!!!

[AchmelvichIsAce]

@metalmouthgirl99 I've had my cello called a guitare several times in the past. People need to be more educated in the lesser known string instruments

[SakiAiza]

@metalmouthgirl99: Me too! Violas for the win!

[forevermusical133]

@britophilia

As a violist going on 5 years...I of course know this. :) And even though the whole string ensemble is playing at 1:17, the cello and bass are a little more...metso forte than the violin and viola, which are probably metso piano. Please, tell me what instrument you play! :)

[metalmouthgirl99]

@forevermusical133

You're a violist, too?
