Parodist Fred Landau has got us chuckling again! This version of the Stephen Schwartz song "Defying Gravity" from his Blockbuster Broadway Smash Hit "Wicked" (Stephen authorized this parody) is sung from the perspective of Ruthie Madoff as she comes to grips with her newfound lifestyle. She is "Crying Poverty!"

  • Haha how creative

  • Genius.

  • *Dies* XDD

  • You should make a music video for this ((:

  • Love it. Very funny,and very clever. Thank you

  • love it bitch

  • Absolutely hilarious! More please!

  • Hilarious, very clever.....loved it!

  • My niece is a big big Wicked fan and wanted me to add: Even the simple black on green look of this reminds of the Wicked advertising and CD cover. And she loves the take on her favorite ending of a song ever, the ah-ah-ah's capping off the number. Great attention to detail. If she had a YouTube account of her own, she'd also give you 5 stars.

    Fine work, Jan and Fred! (BTW, was the reference in the parody lyric to the show's big ballad "For Good" intentional, or just a happy accident?)
