Yes, the lyric, "there's a kind of a sort of cost, there's a couple of things that get lost, there are bridges you crossed you didn't know you crossed until you crossed" hits me in the feels every single time
i think it's largely because of the classic over the topness of popular, but people interpret that as her base characterization rather than the giddy high of a post-party teenage girl indulging in a new friendship
I love this, it’s like the director was , hey do this song your own way, it’s not Popular, you don’t have to be Kristin. Whereas during Popular you could tell she was expected to do it just like Kristin, but here she put her own spin on it.
She's my glinda. Saw her twice at the Pantages in Los Angeles. She's hits every emotional note PERFECTLY in this scene, and the vocal notes are out of this world, of course.
same here.. was blown away. sadly it lost it's mojo when they came back on the traveling tour to the Segerstrom in OC. took my family so they could experience it, but felt disappointed. couldn't put my finger on it. ah well. we have our memories.
What I love is how they both knocked this song out of the park in very different ways. Kristin made me feel the character's remorse and regret while Megan made me feel like the character was still trying to rationalize and accept her choices.
Not to EVER diminish what Megan did with this song, but I think Katie Rose Clarke had the best and most devistating acting in this song. It was insane. And I've never seen anything like it. I'm so sad most of her videos have been taken down
Minor detail but the wink after "fiancé" at 1:56 is so cute! Sadly she only did this for a few months...
STUNNING. This is one of the most overlooked songs from Wicked, at least from the general public.
Absolutely agreed, this is my favourite from the show!
I just love how the ozians move around lol
Agreed! It might be my favorite!
My favorite song, and character development, in the show

This is Glinda. Too many make her cartoonish all the way to the end. This song is perfect to show the mature/emotional side to her and Megan nails it.

Megan is so underrated as then”whole package”. The voice, the acting, dancing, looks…EVERYTHING!! 15 out of 10.
Watch Smash if you haven’t already! 🫶🏼
For me she is the definitive Glinda, I can’t help but picture Megan when I think of Glinda she’s just perfect
Yess same for me! Megan was the perfect balance between ditziness and emotional depth

You are so correct!!! I watched most Glenda’s and she captured the true emotions of this song. Cuz happiness isn’t it!!
That "crossed until you crossed" taken up was everything I didn't know I needed..❤😍

For me, it's STILL Kristin and Megan. They're the ABSOLUTE embodiment of Glinda -- and they're both vocal geniuses.
What I love is how they both knocked this song out of the park in very different ways. Kristin made me feel the character's remorse and regret while Megan made me feel like the character was still trying to rationalize and accept her choices.
I love Kristin, Megan, and Katie Rose Clark. They are the best! The latter’s acting chops and development pf Glinda being top tier!
I saw her twice. Hands down the BEST Glinda ever.
Forever my favorite Glinda
One of the my favorite Glinda! Megan Hilty💚
Mine too!
Saw Megan when I went and saw wicked for the first time. She is amazing!

Megan is a GODESS!!
Megan Hilty is my favourite Glinda in wicked

17 Elphabas! That's Amazing!!!!!

Meghan kills it I saw her in Toronto in 2013 I think and she was one of highlights
man this truly was incredible; what a queen. thanks for sharing!
Megan was my first Glinda. She's truly one of the best.
Just perfection.
Wonderful

i agree, both are great
KRC is totally my favourite glinda
It’s so cool to see so many ladies killing this role in so many different ways. Thanks for the recommend! I’ll check her out
She’s a SMASH!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
those costumes - stunning
Every. Choice. Is. Golden.
Such a real Glinda. Its like she is in this time not the 50s and 60s.
Julie Reiber portrays Elphaba in the next scene, where she returns to the chamber of the Wizard of Oz!
Yay!!!
Megan Hilty ate and left no crumbs
Before she was China Princess in Legends of Oz (2014) she was Glinda
Eden and Megan🩷
