Defying Gravity - Yellow Brick Road Not Taken (10-27-08)

Shoshana Bean and Stephanie J Block as Elphaba
Kate Reinders and Jennifer Laura Thompson as G(a)linda
and Ashanti as well....who knows. Still can't figure out why she was there or why she brought Nelly with her:P


**Watch Stephanie's face as Ashanti goes to hit the final notes in DG. you can totally tell she's think "come on girl, don't you fuck this up" and then how relieved she is when Ashanti nails it. Ashanti I must say really surprised me with this song.She did pretty well up there with the broadway heavyweights like SJB and Sho**

*Sho and Stephanie are incredible and I love at the end that Stephanie just decidces to scream "YEAAAAAAAAAAA" instead of the "AAAHHHHHHH"*

@ Cayala, that "old lady in the green" has a name, Shoshana Bean, one of the best elphabas ever, so dont ever say to replace her cuz she was one of the best, if you dont like her tthats your opinion, but shut the f**k up and quit bashing her

well idk what da heck everyone is aruging me about but i think Ashanti sounds great!! she make sing i think she did a excellent job

[TimeToBlowYourMind]

Stephanie just sings over EVERYONE (including Ashanti). They were all amazing though. Gutted that Shoshana's "I'm flying high" riff didn't go well. STEPHANIE IS THE BEST FOR ME!

@Cayala all of those "old bitches" were TRAINED BROADWAY PERFORMERS with eons more trainignand vocal ability than Ashanti, as good an effort as she puts into it.

i heard ashanti and steph at the end. and i beleive they were what and what. besides they were hitting the same note

[WTFPhoneCalls]

im so glad people finally sees that Ahsanti can actually sing

[BlazedHearts]

She's basically yelling the first 2 choruses. -_-

[smartboi04]

Ashanti was amazing!!! I'm so proud of her with the way she effortlessly belted out those notes.

@JayMann94 Ashanti isnt overrated or overpaid. she'a an r&b artist. they dont need to sound showtuney/belt all their songs. and on top of that, she is paid just to sing, she gets paid to write, sing, and all her other non musical endeavors. i do agree that Stephanie outsang them all, i could hear Ashanti, but i'm a stan of hers, and the only other person i could hear was Stephanie. her voice is amazing

[remyfacade]

I'm not a fan of Ashanti at all, but I have to admit. She did a pretty good job on this song considering she doesn't sing show big and high, on her on albums.

@SMSProductions1 she has the technique to sing it, but I have this image of her soundin really, texan on it for some reason :s
