      Laura, the girl singing, we went to school together. I once sent her this song with idina singing it, and said, crikey, I bet that's a tough song to sing. Anyway, fast forward years later, i've gone to bradford to watch wicked, and guess who is lead lady 😂. Everyone who went to school with her knew she was destined for the west end. She is a superstar with bags of talent and bags of confidence. And my word, does this give me thw goosebumps everytime. Beautiful. Tears/shivers, the whole bag.

      LOL you're joking right? 😂😂😂 Idina is the WORST Elphaba. Literally every single person who did the role after her did better. She couldn't even hit the correct notes and 95% of the time was off-key.

    Something has changed within me
    Something is not the same
    I'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game
    Too late for second-guessing
    Too late to go back to sleep
    It's time to trust my instincts
    Close my eyes and leap
    It's time to try defying gravity
    I think I'll try defying gravity
    And you can't hold me down
    I'm through accepting limits
    'Cause someone says they're so
    Some things I cannot change
    But till I try, I'll never know
    Too long I've been afraid of
    Losing love, I guess I've lost
    Well, if that's love, it comes at much too high a cost
    I'd sooner buy defying gravity
    Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
    And you can't pull me down
    Unlimited
    My future is unlimited
    And I've just had a vision, almost like a prophecy
    I know, it sounds truly crazy
    And true, the vision's hazy
    But I swear, someday I'll be
    Flying so high, defying gravity
    I'm flying high, defying gravity
    They'll never bring me down
    So if you care to find me Look to the western sky
    As someone told me lately
    Everyone deserves the chance to fly
    And if I'm flying solo
    At least I'm flying free
    To those who ground me
    Take a message back from me
    Tell them how I am defying gravity I'm flying high, defying gravity
    And soon, I'll match them in renown
    And nobody in all of Oz No wizard that there is or was Is ever gonna bring me down
    Bring me down
    Oh
