Hedwig Scene "Wicked Little Town"

[@justinsomsel1162]

"The fates are vicious and they're cruel. You learn too late you've used two wishes, like a fool". What a poignant line.

[@driver9337]

I can so relate... except that I used all three of my wishes like a fool.

[@RB-YWGLGA]

I’ve had a hard time thinking of a more brilliantly bittersweet line in rock history. Bravo, Mssrs Trask & Mitchell.

[@rewimckinley6671]

I love those lyrics ♥️

[@rewimckinley6671]

"And if you've got no other choice, you know you can follow my voice..." ♥️♥️♥️

[@Apero1Spritz]

The beauty of this scene is that it makes you both laugh and cry at the same time. Plus the killer song.

[@fransherrie8052]

Laugh, because you will cry if you don’t 😪

[@martinhblake]

I cannot agree more😭😅

[@morkygorky]

The poignancy of the song is EPIC! It's the most beautiful song :)

[@altusshow7574]

@@morkygorky I used to do a cover of this song when I was doing shows. Nobody ever knew where it came from, it was really just for me, but it always got a good reception.

I still remember as if it was yesterday when I saw this movie in my late adolescence, back in 2002 on cinemax, it was a rainy night and I was just discovering and accepting myself. It is the only musical that I have loved and even after many years I have it fresh in my heart,

This entirety of this film is pure beauty, even when it gets ugly. This is not one of the ugly segments, and there's something in my eye.

[@xanfus]

Trask wrote some amazing songs for this movie. I can't believe it's almost 20 years old.

[@DreaAndTheDroid]

Such a great song

[@graveljaw]

Stephen Trask wrote the most incredible music for Hedwig. I actually rented the DVD as a goof, knowing nothing about it, so many years ago. What a find!

[@Lalhriatchhungi-qg9wc]

I knew this from riverdale hedwig musical special episode and the original is just wow im obsessed with classical musics

[@AlexSapperstein-kt7mj]

I was lucky enough to see Hedwig and the Angry Inch at the Egyptian theater in Seattle. I wish I wasn't so emotionally stunted at the time to properly take it in and appreciate it at the time.

[@GullibleTarget]

Omg. I remember laughing so hard when the lady kept on riffing the guitar and then getting teary eyed as Hedwig segued into the next song

[@chanelgarcia9760]

" And if you got no other choice you know you can follow my voice"! Love that line

[@aerielblair8333]

'That kid's got a future' lmaoooooo

[@whuforever8088]

Funny, and then tinged with sadness when you realise the tragic irony behind it. I love that all the jokes in this musical are like that.

[@scottwilson9872]

Such an under rated movie. Still love it 20+ years later. Shortbus is awesome too.

[@jimohare3133]

I find new beauty in this song every time I listen. It's incredible.

[@charlespious1073]

Saw the play and this song hooked the audience

[@kadaramir]

So god damn beautiful and amazing movie… very much underrated, and yet incredible to watch and appreciate.

[@yueoh7508]

One of the most beautiful scenes in every possible way in the entire cinema history I’ll say

[@kapple654]

omg my thoughts exactly

[@AlexOrozco-Social-Pariah]

I had watched this musical before with somebody that was just a passer by, and I just watched this with my boyfriend (who came from this wicked little town in Mexico), and this musical made so much more sense and made me sob while watching it. The importance of sharing artistic experiences with the right people is just mind blowing. Then again I have lived through different shit too by this age than 12 years ago.

[@kkroeger5868]

An iconic song from an underappreciated movie...

[@neilchuckbarnard857]

Christ this is still beautiful. 😭

[@KOLN555]

[@Maverick0451]

Incredible, just incredible. It’s 2022, and if I’m alive in 2032 I’ll still be coming back to this video. I have it on Apple Music, and it’s nice to have the middle verse in that one, but something about the version from the film just wrecks me every time I hear it. This is my favorite take of one of my favorite songs.

[@stephensotelo4506]

One of my absolute favorites. Even better if you listen to the Tommy Gnosis reprise immediately following.

[@usmuse]

The VHS of this movie was a lucky find at a truck stop 20 years ago. Then a bargain bin find but today, front-page news.
