    I had the chance to see the show twice in 1975 on a high school trip from DC. No words to describe the experience. Have the original record signed by the artists!

    It doesn’t get much better than this. The song and lyrics, the orchestration and most of all the gorgeous, soaring vocals.

    First professional Broadway show that I saw when I first went to NYC in 1977. Saw a matinee on Sunday, October 2nd and sat in the balcony, right side in the Broadway Theater. Excited as hell. Cried at the end I was so excited. I was a young man of 22.

      I saw her in the original production on Broadway I think in 1977(?) - she was incredible! And so great her amazing vocal performance has been preserved in this recording. Thanks for letting us know your connection with her - I hope she had a wonderful rest of her life.

    I got to see the play in 1976 after breaking my ankle and a neighbor took me to see for my birthday and I was blown away.. The next year I was able to perform with in a community theatrical group and re-choreographed the Tornado sequence and tweaked the yellow brick road. What a great experience, and fond memories 40 years later !!

    I remember when my Mom took Colleen, my sister Teri and I to see The Wiz on Broadway in the NYC and I will always remember that Stephaine Mills was about 14 years old and she still had a powerful voice.....Thanks for the great memories. TLaws

      +Manuel Orozco I wish I could get my hands on the original playbill because I also remember them saying she was 14 in the bio when I went to see it. But she was really 17 (1975)

    I also first saw The Wiz in D.C. In 1975 on a H.S. trip......It was magical and I'm still enchanted thinking about it. This song is from the Original Broadway Cast Soundtrack and is sung by Ms. Tasha Thomas. I hope they consider reviving this amazing stage play again too.

    Put your arms around me child
    Like when you bumped your shin
    Then you'll know I love you now
    As I loved you then
    Though you maybe trying sometimes
    And I'll need you
    And you're not there
    You know I may get mad
    And turn away
    But you know that I still care
    But you cannot ask for more
    Than can come from me
    I am older than you are
    And one day you'll see
    If I lose my patience with you
    And I suddenly start to scream
    It's only because
    I just want you to be
    Everything that I see in my dreams
    And I'd like to know it's there
    The feeling that we have
    When you know that you can come
    Running to me
    Whenever times are bad

      That last verse:
      Though you’re growing older now
      And I’m watching you grow
      I know I make you sad sometimes
      And see your feelings show
      But one day, I’ll look around
      Ooh and you will be grown
      You’ll be out in the world
      Such a pretty little girl
      Trying your best to make it out here on your own
      And I’ve got to know that it’s there
      The feeling we once had
      When you know that you
      Can come running to me
      Whenever times are bad

      I have to agree with you Matthew. Stephanie maybe old school but her voice is still a sound of beauty. Sorry to go off topic but did you hear Ariana Grande is playing Penny in Hairspray Live.

      Manuel Orozco ook I actually saw Hamilton online; I didnt really like it. I saw Legally Blonde The Musical, Into TheWoods & Next To Normal; I really liked Into The Woods but I also liked Legally Blonde The Musical but not as much as Into The Woods... Next To Normal not so much. I guess I'm not a real big fan of the contemporary musical theater genre :( Did you like Cinderella ?
