  • I loooovvvvvveeeeeeee this song.

  • This song is literally about me :'( when will he realise we get along better than him & his girlfriend...

  • This song= story of my life. -.-

  • kerry ellis, what a woman!

  • Honestly the original makes me cry, this version has no feeling to it. Her voice is okay, but this song is all about feelings

  • @BellumTabula She had emotion in her voice when she sang the original as Elphaba. ;D

  • i think Ellis has a better voice but Idina Menzel certainly has much better emotions in this song

  • love this!

  • Pure love for Kerry Ellis!

  • I really think Wicked Rock has sorta ruined the "Wicked" Feeling of the songs, =/

  • @kaikadri Wtf?.......

  • I'm Not That Girl was never one of my favorites from Wicked but Kerry has greatly changed that opinion haha

  • Each person whose played Elphaba brings their own personality to the song, Kerry obviously with the rock. I personally like the original better, more emotion in it I think.

  • ok im like in love wid wicked and i accept this song's pretty darn good!

  • Just listened to her rock version of "Defying Gravity" and was blown away. And she sounds damn good here, as well! Dunno how this escaped my radar for so long.

  • Shioban Magnus should have done this. She was seriously underrated, I think.

  • GOOD VOICE. Enjoy the Song.

  • Personally I much prefer the original because I think Idina sings it with more meaning and to be honest i dont really think this is a song that could be turned into a rock song but still its quite a good cover...

  • I think I prefer the original version, but this is defidently a cool arrangement!!!

  • Probably because she was the first Elphaba that I ever saw but I think she is THE BEST! Though someone who can sing like that doesn't have the right to be so beautiful. Gotta say though, she's definitely better live.

  • I'm pretty sure the original idea was to do a rocked up version of No Good Deed instead of this... Would have been interesting to hear but at the same No Good Deed is pretty operatic in it's style so it may not have translated well... Hmmmm

  • i this is the best version of i'm not that girl i think

  • she does on stage this is a rock version

  • That's because it's a ROCK version ;P It's great either way in my opinion!

  • no maybe not - but she's still really really really good XD

  • I love this!

    I think it's better than the musical version!

    I wish it was on itunes!:(

  • wow never heard this version!

    It's cool :-) really like it!!

    But she sing's a little through the nose...

    anyways... great :-)

  • @anxiouslittlegirl I c y u think her voice is nasal. 4 some reason the songs from "Wicked in Rock" when listened to on utube the vocals sound weak & a bit nasal. If you buy the CD the vocals are beautifully rich. The mix on this song is not meant for lower end audio equipment e.g. computer speakers & the sound quality degrades on utube. Listen to some of her other work, u will b impressed. She has a better voice than Barbra Striesand or Idina Menzel. Kerry really does not sing through her nose.

  • ahh thanks for the info :-)

    okay I'll check her out

    any good vid that you would suggest?

  • hey do u know where the cds being sold i cant seem to find it

  • Go on Queen's main website or Kerry Ellis' website and there are links to the purchase stuff from Queen - It is in there. You won't find it in Stores or on Amazon or, I don't think on any of the download stores either, although I could be wrong on that. I am pretty sure you have to buy an old fashioned actual CD from the Queen Store on the Queen website. If I am wrong on any of this, somebody please correct me so Blubberfreek can get the CD !

  • Defying Gravity is on itunes UK.

  • Agreed.

    It's much better on WIR.

    Even better live.

    She's a rare talent.

  • Lovely!

    There's only one voice I will ever love more than Kerry's and that is Peter Johansson's. They are both so far beyond amazing there aren't words to describe it!

  • la verdad esta chica tiene una voz muy bonita

  • si muy bonita

  • BEAUTIFUL !!! JUST GREAT !!! :D

  • i like the original version better though thi is still pretty good. though EVRY wicked fan needs to have heard the defying gravity rock song fom this album its INCREDIBLE! obviously not good for stage performance but when ur sitting at home listening to music its awesome

  • @Jooma17 that is one of only a few songs that can keep me focused this week while writing papers for my college finals, which means it is awesome! :)

  • Awesome, love Brian and love Kerry! <3

  • she is soooo amazinggg :D

    i love herrr so muchh :D

  • So...when does the album drop...if it drops? Will it drop?

  • I think I like the musical version better but it is really good.

  • AMAZING

  • Brian May produced this?!?!?!?!?!?!

    YOU ROCK GIRL!

  • i love Kerry she is my idol :)

    I love this so much.

    I went to see her in Wicked at the West-End.

    It was the best musical I have EVER SEEN. :D

  • love this part

  • pretty good but the origanal version is better

  • I think they should try this in wicked its amazing!!!

  • LOVED IT! even if it changed a few things, it's a great remix!!!

  • Normally I don't like it when artists mess around with Broadway, but Kerry...wow i love this version! She changed it just enough to make it her own, but not making me forget the original. Love the extra verse too.

  • yeah this version is really nice :) Good job Kerry!!! :)

  • cool :)

    but some of it sounds too.. happy..

  • meh, idk, i dont like this version as much.

    she seems too confident for elphaba.

  • well shes not really supposed to be singing it as Elphaba but as Kerry, hence the different version

  • Just saw you kerry ! who agree's she is AMAZING ?? x

  • meeee!! shes fantastic!! i love her! i saw her 2 weeks ago :)

  • Hahaaaa This Tells Theee Truth Dudde :D

    Love Itt ;) x

  • Man, I love this song!

    I'm not that girl either...-_-

  • I normaly don't like remixes of broadway songs but this I like, I'm not verry up to date with the actresses in Wicked so it this the most rencent one?

  • Yup. Recent and in my opinion best by far.

    She's a belter =D

  • she's the current Elphaba in london yep :D returned from broadway on 1st December and was replaced by Marcie Dodd :)

  • i have to agree some of the remixes of braodway songs are really bad, but i will admit, these arnt that bad

    way to go! kerry

  • That was awsome!

  • I haven't seen her in Wicked, but i saw her in We Will Rock You just after it opened... she has a stunning voice! great song :D

  • i dion't like this version i like the normal version

  • <3 love this. <3 kerry ;) xx

  • Ha! ya right.

  • Why lie?

  • Love this, Kerry voice sounds pretty in this softer rock x

    i prefer the other one tbh (:

    still good though.

  • lol, love this, go kerry!

    it's like a new twist on the amazing song, me likey. =D

  • i love this version

    were can i download this??

  • sounds great!

  • not completely different, but it rocked, it did!

  • Love this! But I also love the original version. Best of both worlds, eh?

  • love this <3

    kerry rocks!!!! i saw her on broadway last month and it was AMAZING!

  • wat is wicked in rock?

    (the song is good)

  • Kerry Ellis played Elphaba in the musical wicked. this is a song from Wicked, and she covered it...in a rock style

  • what's amazing is, even though she's British her accent hardly comes through

  • The original version is better, but still... I can't help loving this version! Actually they're both fun to sing. >.>

  • youre a mess

  • they both are.

  • Kerrys singing this at The Yellow Brick Road Not Taken on Monday and she might sing it when they light the Empire State Building green too!

  • You can buy it at the queenonline store, since

    it was produced by Queen guitarist Brian May. Just Google queenonline Kerry Ellis Wicked in

    Rock. (YouTube doesn't allow links.) Good Luck. (They're in England, but ship overseas.)

  • Is it possible for anyone to send me this song? It would be a great help. Thank you.

  • Dude thats pretty cool. I love the original version but thats cool. Its a beautiful song that is so true for so many people.

  • it was ok... but i love the original more... plus everytime i listen to it, it always makes me cry...

  • i love this show!!!!!!! It totally rocks my socks!!!!!

  • i really don't like the Wicked Rock songs. I don't think they sound bad. But they're SHOWTUNES. not rock songs. and that's why i love them.

  • Absolutally fantastic! Fair enough they changed the lyrics, thus changing the meaning slightly, however they changed the genre of music, how many rock songs do yuo get where the said artist gives up on themselves? They fight for what they believe. This is no longer a song for a musical, but a rock song it is.

    Very brave idea, Fantastic result.

  • i think its gd this, it wudnt b for the musical, but the way she as done it en the reason fitss i think it sounds gudd =]

  • can someone give me the full lyrics for this song, i'm deaf and i need to read the lyrics of the song, to know what shes saying, cause its all gibberish to me..ive ready the lyrics but they dont match up, did she change something?

    but it would be rly great if someone took the time to do it for me please..

  • Hands touch, eyes meet Sudden silence, sudden heat Hearts leap in a giddy whirl He could be that boy But I'm not that girl. Blithe smile, lithe limb She who's winsome, she wins him Gold hair with gentle curl That's the girl he chose And heaven knows I'm not that girl...Don't dream too far Don't lose sight of who you are Don't remember that rush of joy

    hey am going to have to write a few messages sorry!!

  • I Love It

  • I also think that changing the end of the song was a bad move. That's not the point. Yes, she wants to be that girl, but she doesn't have any hopes. If she didn't add that in, it'd be an awesome song, buuut...

  • ...wow.

  • i love it!

  • I LOVE THIS!!
