@Redflowers9 It's Heaven Side Layer, the Jellickle Cats' version of Heaven/rebirth, I understand... the play isn't entirely clear on what precisely happens there.

Wonderful to have the long version up at last!

Only one question from a Nordic girl? WHAT is stone wine?

@justineluvsu234 I have a feeling that if she wasn't wearing that sash she would have been "too big/unfashionably plump/peasant stock". That matchmaker was just dead set on finding faults, no wonder she is considered scarier than the undertaker.

@GnosisMan50 Well, that contraption she is wearing is a climbing harness so I'm guessing they just computer-magicad the lifeline away.

@clareymcclarey Well, in the book (speaking of the Wicked here, though the original book also applies) Elphaba DID die, the musical is happier like that. It was so tragic, Elphaba's broom and clothes catch fire and poor Dorothy tries to save her... and the only reason she "accepted" that mission ...

@DonDinasAirey Judging by the answers I have gotten, it is a music video that is the behind the scenes of a movie. Wheee!

@nodeterin Yes, The Kalevala, as well as all really old Finnish folk poetry were always sung in the same metre, The Kalevala metre, a form of trochaic tetrameter. It's natural to the Finnish language the same way Iambic pentametre is natural to English.

I love the way this performance is so expressive. You can hear how they are so angry with each other in the beginning, so bitter and betrayed and clearly wishing the other one is going to regret their choices. When they reach the end of the song they genuinely wish each other happiness even if th...

@orrunan I'm terribly sorry for the formatting. Youtube doesn't like me today.

Lempikappaleeni SMG:ltä! Kiitis, kiitos, kiitos!

@emeriste Well, yes, some of them. While it would be nice to claim to be part of idiot-free language group that claim would leave ME holding the idiot ball.

Meitä on moneen junaan ja jotkut tulevat resiinalla perässä.

Silkkii on aivan ihana biisi. Reggae - olen MELKO varma tämä on reggaeta - ei yleensä ole minun lajiani, mutta todella hyvät laulut viehättävät genrerajojen yli ja ympäri. Kertosäe tarttuu aivan kuin Maailman toisella puolella - kappaleessa, mutta hyvän soinnun lisäksi sanat ovat hienot myös papp...

@richAardnjannet1980 To be fair it isn't ALL crap. Lilo and Stich, the first Pirates of the Caribbean, The Princess and the Frog and Tangled are quite good. But I agree that there should be a separate level in Hell for the people who use Disney's name to make crap like Hannah Montana. #shudder#

@1hnnah1 Voimaa vaikeuksiin, kyllä niitä, jotka todella välittävät ilmestyy, jos ei jo ole.

@Petskuu1 Ehdottoman ylpeä. Tämä on paras hevi/rock/insert genre here versio virrestä ikinä.

@igottowatch Well, to each their own opinion, I guess. Personally I find this quite lovely. The musical isn't just slavishly moved from screen to stage, but this is indeed a different version of the story with its own unique nuances.

@emopinata12345 I agree with you! And I LOVE the cheerful spirit that just radiates from the voices. It's easy to believe these people really have fun with their work.

@fransird Yes, it does.

@Hirnlego999 Well, this WAS made 1988 so so the song having an 80's feeling is hardly surprising. As for the "I love your body", it has a nice, earthy feeling to me. It's noble and cutesy to say that only what is inside matters, but that's a lie, plain and simple. The sensible people consider the...

@vidmaster89 Enpä tiedä... tässä vaiheessa maailmanaikaa on kai väistämätöntä, että jokaista laulua kohti on jokin toinen laulu, joka muistuttaa sitä ainakin vähän. Ei se epäilyttävän paljoa ole.

@jodesonata And the singer doesn't think he is good enough for her; not exiting enough and that's why she must ask him to wear Che Guevara shirt to the bed to get some exitement in her life. That's all the rebellion in her life now.

@DragonXaI Not at all, I think so too. But which one gets to be Rumpleteazer?

@DangerousVe This is a cover of an old Finnish children's song by the pop band PMMP. So lovely too! Brings back memories of my childhood.

@shinyglass They are speking about wanting the same guys so definetely not lesbian love. Too bad, lesbians get too little positive represention in the media.

@riskybubble Poijilla on pöpöjä... Yäk! Ainakin tuossa iässä.

@mestarilapsi Frollon maine taisi kokea pahan kolauksen tämän takia. Ei sillä, että hän olisi elänyt kärsimään hullun maineesta...

@XxMissNoNamexX I think she is sex on legs and I'm a woman! She isn't as pretty as Demeter, but she has this presence.

@Swiftywish Actually Demeter is commonly thought, though not explicitly stated, to be Grizabella's sister. Pretty funny considering how she "protects" Demeter from Grizabella; has to be some pretty bad blood between the two.
