Have fun singing!
Feel free to post a video response :o)

[@IngenuousSoprano]

Shout out to all my sops holding that last low E for the full length. For my mezzos, you guys are rock stars! 🤘 For my contraltos, so happy you can finally feel at home in something written for musical theatre (...that isn't written for a tenor).

[@DeeKayPea]

Any other mezzos in the house ;) I didn't know that....that low E was a hard note. That's still in my comfort level.

[@saraalicea7955]

+Danica Power I'm a mezzo here! But the E is a challenge. I feel like my larynx is lowering when I attempt it.

[@danamackay841]

I'm a mezzo too but I struggle with the E 😔

[@singeracterdancer09]

I'm a mezzo and i think i can hit it, haven't sung this with a piano yet but at the moment it doesn't sound too off.

[@christieh3244]

I'm a mezzo - soprano :) the E is fine I find :/ xx

[@katybaby1997]

We all have different voices and ranges, just because you can or can't hit a note doesn't mean your any better or a more trained singer... Knowing your voice and what it can do is more impressive than 'hitting' a note.

[@BacadoTheSkoggy]

*Sees all the people whining about the low E* "you finally know how I feel with every high note in every other song"

[@christinetomer205]

Saaame

[@jesscooke4484]

Ha ha same

[@myrddinmekel206]

I have difficulties with the high end I know I can sing this high I just don´t dare to do it

[@francisissleepy5300]

Me

[@LillerThatIsMe]

I came here cause I have a cold and that's the only time I can hit the low E lololol (but also, I was an Alto in high school and couldn't hit the high notes but my range significantly improved as I got older! Woo!)

[@Mimipotter8]

I'm an alto and I can sing that perfectly. Finally a Wicked song that anyone could sing

[@valentinascelato2432]

Anyone but sopranos

[@Tamara-ju3lh]

@@valentinascelato2432 yes but they have all of the others lol

[@IngenuousSoprano]

@@Tamara-ju3lh some of us have lower extensions. Not likely to hear it without a mic, but why would you try to sing over an amplified orchestra or band without one anyway?

[@lionmuesli4321]

As a soprano I'm slightly pushing it but I'll let you have that one. Don't get me wrong the song is gorgeous but I know how many great songs there are to sing for Sopranos and how little Altos get as far as musical theatre goes

[@IngenuousSoprano]

@@lionmuesli4321 opera, too. As far as leads go, the only contralto/mezzo (as opposes to mezzo/soprano) lead would be Rossini's Cenerentola. True contraltos are rare and that's also represented in vocal music. Lyric sopranos are the most common female vocal fach.

*tries singing along but ends up crying*

[@ellanimblett8489]

Laura Neubauer SAME DUDE

[@audreydrey6004]

Hands touch, eyes meet Sudden silence, sudden heat Hearts leap in a giddy whirl He could be that boy But I'm not that girl Don't dream too far Don't lose sight of who you are Don't remember that rush of joy He could be that boy I'm not that girl Every so often we long to steal To the land of what-might-have-been But that doesn't soften the ache we feel When reality sets back in Blithe smile, lithe limb She who's winsome, she wins him Gold hair with a gentle curl That's the girl he chose And heaven knows I'm not that girl Don't wish don't start Wishing only wounds the heart I wasn't born for the rose and pearl There's a girl I know He loves her so I'm not that girl

[@alyssarose1909]

TIP FOR PEOPLE WHO CAN'T SING THAT NOTE: Earlier in the song there's an 'I'm not that girl' which stays pretty much the same (it goes A to A). Keeping the last "I'm not that girl" on the A works with the ending notes. :)

[@stygianwanderer]

I do that, because I'm quite a high mezzo, but damn it would be nice to hit that e!

[@bethiustiberiusmaximus8603]

Wow 7 months on and I can just get the e! Goal accomplished!

[@stellamayer1836]

Alyssa Rose I was quite surprised about all the comments because in the German version I listen to Elphaba really sings the A and not the E, only Glinda in her reprise sings it :)

[@katied3929]

Yeah. I did this song in a show once and I just used the note from the previous verse. Sometimes I can hit the low note but sometimes I can't even get close.

[@jackeygibney893]

My trick to it was learning an even more difficult song than anything in wicked. Its called Sunday in the park with George from the musical Sunday in the park with George. "Artists are bizarre " the 2nd bizarre goes down to a low e there so much to Sunday in the park with George that I found it more difficult then wicked. So now I'm re visiting I'm not that girl a year later and bam I can hit the low e.

[@ChloeeKk]

I LOVE THE E!!! ALL HAIL THE E!!!

[@EmilyMachew]

I sang this down the octave for my friends and they all started screaming when I hit the E at the end. I may have wanted to scream too, but I played it off as if I've always been able to do it. #baritonegirl

[@lea784]

This comment section: 60% Can’t hit the E 30% Can 9% Saying how sad the song is 1% This exact comment

[@marianaelosua3682]

what about the 10% left 😱

[@lea784]

Mariana Elosua lmao I made this comment in literal 5th grade 😂

[@DDorisM]

I could sing this song over and over. I think this is one of my favorite songs to sing, because it fits my range perfectly:)

[@katmckinney1439]

Perks of being a Second Alto.. x) hitting that E

[@livvypee5893]

Yes! Perks of being an alto :'(

[@indiajessierocks]

I'm an alto/soprano my vocal range is wierd

[@lillmango]

lol i'm technically a soprano so when i first sang this song, it was really really hard but i worked at it...i think incredibly low notes are just as beautiful in texture as incredibly high notes and i love it when singers make those notes warm and full of richness...that''s why i love singing these songs just as much as i love singing phantom songs!

[@haq5np]

Olivia petty 02 Hey Olivia!!!

[@odangoatama98]

indiajessierocks you a mezzo soprano

[@SingingWithMyself-Frozen]

All these people complaining they can't sing the low E when I can't even pull off the F#s on whirl/joy/curl/pearl. Usually I completely give up at the end and sing the last line an octave higher. Beautiful song though :)

[@sydneyrebecca8888]

mE

[@hannahhill260]

Me too I can't do the joy and stuff

[@SingingWithMyself-Frozen]

Hannah Hill Chipmunk problems XD

[@kmayflowerr]

SingingWithMyself saaaame it's so frustrating bc I love this song!

[@m_music8821]

Same I have to sing it higher

[@dovestone_]

I'm a mezzo soprano and that E is literally the absolute lowest note that I can hit in tune😅 Update: Turns out my range is acc pretty big and realised I can get up to the B/Bb above top C about 3 years ago and just struggle around the passaggio area because of grip problems etc so idk what voice category I am now Really didn’t know my own voice!

[@echoflowerproductions1445]

Same.

[@kirstenlove1602]

I can reach the D above in tune. That’s me. I’m like... Struggling

[@laelynnvega3588]

My lowest note is the low E in this song and my highest one is a high F#/Gb😂 I have a very large range but that's mainly bc I've had vocal training 😂

[@merroseabellera94]

As I learned this song for a solo this song is so simple yet so elegant the tricks in this song are so hard to pull off. The hard part about this song is making it your ow and unique to your voice the low notes are what's dragging me in this song but I mean i was a soprano and now I'm an alto so this song does well in my voice range. I love the eliqut dynamics it challenged me a lot but I think I'm ready for my solo tommorow hopefully this is my first time doing this song so I hope all goes well.

[@meganross5041]

im a soprano and learning this song was a perfect way of increasing vocal range, never would I have dreamed of reaching that E!!

[@seizetheday8402]

I. Cannot. Hit. That. Damn. E

[@annodal8465]

I can't hit it very comfortably. I sound like I'm badly imitating a man's voice whenever I try :-/

[@JackBellamy1997]

I can hit it, but always sound like a foghorn--

[@pastel_pink1003]

😂

[@alanabowers1862]

[@erimcferrysings4110]

Seize The Day I CAN NOW! I couldn't last year but I'm 14 now and my voice has matured.

[@madeleinetierney8993]

One of the seemingly simpler songs in the show, but is it just me who actually finds this harder than Defying Gravity technically?

[@ellasparks8672]

I do!!

[@emilyc8911]

Madeleine Tierney YES

[@Tillysnow1]

Meeee! I have to change some of the low notes because it's too low for me :')

[@evemcguire7047]

Tillysnow1 just out of curiosity what notes do you change and what do you change them to?

[@bryonyjay3284]

It is, the actor holds a lot more notes and for a longer period of time in this song, defying gravity is nothing compared to this!

[@KIWI122297]

"An heaven knows, I'm not that girl!" love this song I saw the musical and instantly fell in love!

[@stefaniarossi4323]

When I first heard the song: "I think I can do this!" When I actually tried: "OH.MY.GOD"

[@PlaidShirtBlueJeans]

It's really interesting reading about people's vocal ranges and the different struggles and successes that people have with singing certain songs. However, it's always a good idea to never close yourself off from learning something just because it isn't in your "range". I went from singing with the male tenors in my school's choir, to being a soprano. Practising and experience are the best things to help your voice grow.

[@tolkienbliss]

Definitely going to record it. Sadly this song is about me...

[@rachela1171]

I recently saw the musical and I have been obsessed with Wicked songs lately! Thanks so much for uploading -this is perfect to sing to!

[@mhsjnd]

なぜなの　手と手が触れる ただそれだけで 心痛む　胸の奥 これは　夢よ いつかは　醒める 傷つかないよう　忘れるの　この想い いつも思っていた 憧れてもいた 叶わない夢ならば 捨ててしまおう 自信に溢れたグリンダ あの子　すべてが綺麗 忘れよう 私には無理だわ フィエロ　あなたの瞳の中には 私はいないの ただひとり　見つめてる グリンダ

[@amberbernardieteuati]

Tries not to cry... CRIES A LOT.

[@Insanely_Mads]

I can hit the low parts, but the "that boy" and "that girl" is too high for me uggggggg but I think I'm getting close to it.

[@leslieking9657]

It’s to low for me as an alto.

[@jessexisting933]

try whimpering into the note.

[@amym2214]

When I hit the low E I feel like Chloe in Pitch Perfect

[@tonemusicchannel3938]

Omg. Totally!

[@jordang3220]

depending on how close you are to the E in your vocal range, it's not impossible to do! Just work up, or in this case down, to it :-)

[@ellasparks8672]

perks of being an alto...not many, apart from hitting this E!!!

[@bieberfankp]

I am A soprano 1 and I can finally it that E :') I'm crying

[@madeleinetierney8993]

I'm an alto and I can't do it. I applaud you.

[@madeleinebrown5]

please share with a fellow soprano how you achieved this

[@bieberfankp]

+Madeleine Brown I tried not to over think it & then I started doing lower scales when I would vocalize to stretch my voice (:

[@madeleinebrown5]

[@monicaroseslater]

thanks for posting:) i

lol all the comments are i can hit the E!!! and im over here like alto

[@laurenalessia18]

May Page YAS QUEEN! Altos represent!!!!

[@blancheduboisapologist]

Last note is so fun to sing (Especially for altos!)

[@singerofsongs915]

@FeelingWicked3 It is alto. Alto is the lower singing voice, right under mezzos and right above tenors. :)

너의 숨결 멈추었던 이 세상 이제 꿈에서 깨면 너의 눈 속에 내가 없겠지 ​ ​ 모두 잊어 니 모습을 바라 봐 기쁨을 기억 하지마 그의 맘 속엔 내가 없어 ​ ​ 허망한 꿈은 달콤하게 내게 손을 내밀지만 달콤한 꿈일수록 깨어지면 현실은 더욱 아픈 법 ​ ​ 하얀 미소 햇살 속의 그 소녀 사랑은 너를 향하여 ​ ​ 너는 빛나고 그 소녀는 내가 아냐 ​ ​ 헛된 바램 칼날 되어 돌아와 장미 꽃은 이젠 흩어져 ​ ​ 그의 맘 속에 그 소녀는 내가 아냐 ​

[@elisabethnerolk2283]

FINALLY A INSTRUMENTAL VERSION I FOUND!! WOOT!!

[@cityofvogue]

i love this song! i use it as a warm up song all the time :) one of the few songs that make me glad i'm a mezzo, hate the fact i can go even lower too :/ haha

[@averykb1815]

I can hit all the notes except that last low note UGGGG SO CLOSE!

[@arisofi3346]

Lo ve, sen ven Llueves flores un edén Y un cuento empezó El muchacho es el Ella no soy yo Sentir, callar Y no olvides tu lugar Guarda fuego en tu interior Quiere lo mejor Y no soy yo Siempre nos vamos a refugiar A la tierra de “no es verdad” Pero jamás llega a cambiar Que triste es la realidad Ni mal, ni bien Ella es rubia, el es el Así fue que la escogió Busca a alguna que... A una que... qué no soy yo Desear... jamás La esperanza daña más Y entre perlas se me negó Ama a alguien, si La ama y Y no soy yo

[@ChristinaFloresChan]

[@lilianalves3021]

O seu olhar Me acende Tira o ar Por que eu me sinto assim? Poderia ser! Mas não é pra mim Pra que sonhar? Não esqueça seu lugar Nunca deixe esse amor crescer Poderia ser! Mas não é pra mim De vez em quando é bom fugir Para o mundo da ilusão Mas não vale a pena me iludir Se a vida real diz não Não vai ser meu Sei que a outra já venceu Mais linda que um jasmim Tenho que aceitar! Que o seu olhar Não é pra mim Querer em vão Só machuca o coração Não nascem flores no meu jardim Seja como for O seu amor! Não é pra mim

These are the moments I'm grateful I have a pretty big rage and can sing songs like this

[@NykMorris]

I noticed that last night.That's why I'm doing this song for an auditions as Eponine. Since we can't use one of the songs from the show, I realized that this would be the perfect song to do and be in character for it. It's an amazing parallel.

[@JadeLH]

I'm using this as a backing track for an audition....thankyou :) It's brilliant :)

[@garbenbarben7987]

I have no idea what vocal category I am. The low E isn't too much of a push for me, definitely low in my range but not impossible by any means, but I also have a top F# ?? Any clues??

[@beccadude667]

i love this song so much

[@plezze12]

Its beautiful

[@racheln2711]

I can hit the low E, just very *very* quietly. Everything else is totally fine

That is my problem... I can hit it... it just isn't loud enough

[@marciaharper2867]

my favorite song from this musical!

[@amandaash476]

For everyone complaining about the low E: sing the same Note you sing when you sing “that” in that phrase and thank me later.

[@nikiduncan8271]

Singing this as a solo in a show tonight Wish me luck x

[@SuperBroadwayNerd]

This song fits my voice perfectly! Of course, my range is HUGE! And can hit the note at the end and the note at end of The Phantom Opera when she is doing the scale for the phantom.

[@kmayflowerr]

That damn E!! Being a soprano 1 has its disadvantages :/

[@eponinethenardier9188]

Funny, Éponine and Elphaba are my dream roles!! And Mimi from RENT

[@missybarbour6885]

When I started working this up to be an audition piece I had so much trouble hitting the F#'s I was like "Man, the E is just a dream at this point" but then I listened to a recording with lyrics and realized I'd just been singing this song an octave down for years. #LadyTenorProbs

[@thebrideinthemirror2030]

As a mezzo with a fairly high range I'm really happy that I HIT THE E

[@GrMattPro]

Our first session, she had me working with Caro Mio Bein, some Elvis song and some other genre that I can't remember... I thought she was crazy! Now, I have NO BREAK. I went from full on alto, to mezzo, and now I don't classify... So I will say to you, what she said to me..."Stoppit! You're a singer!"

[@DarcieRichards]

I fell for a guy a million miles away. My heart beats that little bit harder when I think about him but now I have jump back to reality and my heart breaks a little bit more. It hurts. I'm not the girl for him.

[@BeeKee404]

Wicked has ruined me in the best possible way! I'm on team Wicked Witch of the West forever and always from now on!

[@MagicThemself]

[@makayladiane3310]

Could I use this for a cover on my KZbin Channel?

[@mariadelucait]

I've noticed that a few months ago... when I was singing both songs! They describe the same kind of love. But, in my opinion, Eponine is destroyed and wasted, she wants him and she imagines her life with him! While Elphaba thinks she's not enough and she suffers cause she has to surrender and she feels like she's not worth it... Luckily, the two stories are SO different as the fate of the two girls! XD Elphaba is way more "fortunate" :P PS. I'm Italian, sorry for my English XD

[@coraline233]

i sung this for the talent show at my school but i diddnt in but everyone tells me i really good!

[@CourtneyFoschi]

@tomboyhannah Yeah. It's really awesome. I've had the same voice teacher for about five years and we've realized that my low range just keeps getting lower, so I focus on my high range a lot more, but I do love singing low. I went to an honors camp at U of I and I sang Tenor II for one song, then Soprano I for another. I love that versatility!

[@eponinethenardier9188]

It is my best Elphaba song. I don't mean as in it is better than the others, because they are all great, but I would audition with this.. I haven't recieved any formal vocal training, and for Defying Gravity, No Good Deed, and The Wizard and I, I would need more vocal training and help with belting the high notes, but this song is perfect, and I find it easy as well..

[@karenlnsy]

It's fucking moments like these when you stand on your bed and pretend your floor is an audience in a West End Theatre.

[@elizabethstark3047]

As a mezzo soprano, I adore this song because I can sing it so perfectly (though the low E is a bit outside of my comfort zone, oops)
