Kristin Chenoweth and Indina Menzel are the best Elphaba and Glinda to ever graced broadway. These two need to be in the Wicked Movie!

That would be totally "wicked" but unless one or the other is cast as Madam Morrible, it will not be.

[@drangedhermit1]

@@JaySmith_ So, because of one actress's performance in one part of one song: said actress is better? I'm not saying one actress is better than another but judging one's performance because of a minute part of the musical is ridiculous.

[@marinali1094]

C.J. Mancini well I mean idina did have some tuff vocal damage after performing as Elphie and there were other actresses who played elphie that didn’t suffer from vocal damage, suggesting that their practices were healthier, and “better.” Idina is an amazing actress but there were others who seemed to perform the role just as, if not even more better than idina.

[@ellewinnifred2449]

NERD ALERT: throughout the show, it's been Galinda/Glinda singing the higher parts and Elphaba singing the lower harmonies and melodies. In a song where they have "changed for good" their singing parts are reversed. I always thought that was neat.

Look at how they look at each other while singing. You can't fake that.

[@nicolestetz1226]

My father put me up for adoption at birth because he was very mentally ill and not financially stable. He spent a lifetime mourning the loss of his daughter (me), unable to move on but believing that he made the right choice. I met him almost two years ago, he had moved around between his siblings homes, never being able to settle anywhere or commit to anything or anyone. He drove himself mad but was undoubtedly the most incredibly selfless man I ever met. He was just suffering from so much internal conflict that he could not ever be at peace. He passed in February, and this song always makes me think of him. I miss him so much. Goodbye David 💕 Because I knew you, I have been changed for good.

Having this performed by these two women approaching middle age, makes this much richer, with the maturity of experience behind them.

My middle school music teacher committed suicide a few days ago and she absolutely loved Wicked. We sang a choral version of this song in high school like 8 years ago and it always stuck with me. I’m now currently getting my degree in music performance to eventually get an education degree to teach like her. She was incredibly talented and did so much for our community and especially our music department. She also got to work with Broadway superstars. She always got lead roles in musical theater shows. She was a real life Mary Poppins. No one could’ve ever expected this would happen.

So sad that so many creative and musically talented people struggle with mental health - let alone in a global-pandemic. It's good to know you will be a legacy of her talent.

Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes a sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you I have been changed for good It well may be That we will never meet again In this lifetime So let me say before we part So much of me Is made of what I learned from you You'll be with me Like a handprint on my heart And now whatever way our stories end I know you have re-written mine By being my friend... Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a skybird In a distant wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you Because I knew you I have been changed for good And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness For the things I've done, you blame me for But then, I guess we know There's blame to share And none of it seems to matter anymore Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes the sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a skybird In the wood (Harmony over Glinda) Who can say if I've been Changed for the better?

*THE GREATEST TEAM THERE'S EVER BEEN!!! LONG LIVE CHENZEL!!!!* 💖💚

[@youtubingjaguar5082]

*JUST YOU AND I DEFYING GRAVITY! ;)*

[@elisam.2896]

Still get full body chills everytime they harmonize on that last "I have been changed". Literal perfection that is. They sound so effortless together without either of them having to hold back. I'll love it forever.

[@Punk3rGirl]

The chemistry and sincerity of their emotions elevates the entire performance💖

[@thelionfish865]

Linds Tee they hate each other in real life

[@mdmf117]

To sing with this much raw emotion after god knows how many times they had to sing it - that is true artistry.

[@elizabethdodd4666]

What I love most about them is they're both so different in characteristics AND in singing. Kristin's short and has blonde hair, Idina's taller with brown hair (thus perfect Elphie and Glinda match) and with singing voices, Kristin has the more higher, southerny tone to her voice and idina has the more alto, raspy voice to hers, yet when they put them both together...magic happens. I truly believe it was definitely God's intention to put these two fabulous women together. I'll never get tired of them, this musical or this very song in particular ❤ perfect friendship

[@janicedickson9130]

I agree that they were a perfect blend, but I have seen others do a good job as well. I also will never get tired of them or this musical. I think I've seen it 6-7 times now (saw Idina my first time) and my grown daughters love it as much as I. We always go together! We are mesmerized from beginning to end.

[@elizabethdodd4666]

Janice Dickson I long to have been able to witness they're potential in person. But I saw it on KZbin. The Ally mauzey and Donna vivino version. And Ally mauzey is one of my faves because she makes the character her own and is extremely hilarious I was on the floor dying most of the time. I just love Kristin and Idina because of the movies I've seen them in as a kid and when they both started in Glee. I agree there's others who do just as exceptional. So glad you get to witness them multiple times. I bet they're as phenomenal in person as they are on the media :)

[@DouwJordaan]

You can't beat this - even if your mother was singing this to you. this is magic like only magic can be.

[@caitdeeccb]

this was over two years ago and i still start crying 10 seconds into the video

[@kaylawiley2535]

caitlin OMG same my show choir sang this at Disney and I cry thinking how now I don't know any of the people I was best friends with. I love this song soooo much it's one of my favs from wicked

[@elizabethgrinham6934]

SAME

[@erikandchristinepassionlov5194]

And now you get to cry again for the Halloween special.

[@janvandam8780]

Wow. Two professionals know how to sing and how to sing together. With only a piano. Stunning. A heartfelt beautiful song.

[@edie8931]

3:53 that smile kristin gives idina makes me cry every time

[@jws1272]

Do you know what I LOVE the most about this video? I LOVE that Kristin & Idina NEVER STOP SMILING throughout the whole thing!!!! (Plus, the way they sing it, it doesn't sound like Galinda singing with Elphaba.........it sounds like Kristin singing with Idina.......) Ok, one last thing........them taking hands at the end, and the HUG..............CRYING!!!

[@Lucailey]

They love eachother - not romantically but. I think the song is true for them as friends and when they sing it it had double meaning for then and their characters. There is a taping of this song on their last Broadway show together and you can see the legit tears running down their faces. We want to make all love romantic but it isnt. They love eachother as good friends and that pure emotion is beautiful

[@spelcd]

the way they look at each other. Omg the special relationship they would have shared up on that stage! bring on the movie! (as long as they are both starring)

[@arlenearroyo8195]

This made me cry.

[@abegailodi46]

@DJJ Old? What is that?

[@nxgnotome69]

This song is beautiful and iconic. No matter who comes along to do it, whether good or bad, these two women will always be the ones to instantly move me to tears. Each and every time, so yes, thank you Kristin and Idina. I bow to you ladies for the memories.

[@KDavalos]

I'm not crying 20 years later, we're all crying.

[@RyeWhalen]

Yes.

[@ashleypoindexter7113]

I'm at work like play this at my funeral 😢😢😢😢😢

[@jasminea5039]

I sent this to the only best friend I ever had in my life, even though we haven't seen each other in years I don't know if she will even watch it the whole way through, or really listen to the lyrics but I really hope she does... I always remember when a teacher said he thought we would be friends forever because we were so inseparable. We did everything together, we even shared a diary we took turns to write down our dreams and plans and hard feelings we didn't wanna admit in person and then write each other replies and even though we were so different in so many ways it was like our souls were just the same in every single way. We both gave so much to each other and helped each other so much through extremely difficult times and also had so many happy moments and I've never laughed more with somebody... I know it was my fault, and your fault too, that we are not the friends we used to be. I love you so much So to the only person who was ever my friend It may be that we never meet again in this lifetime I don't know if I've been changed for the better, but because I knew you I have been changed for good. 😢❤️ I'll miss you and Us forever...

[@queerchoreography54]

After all these years, I’m just getting into this musical

[@lexmays934]

It's still good

Saaaame

[@genuineinterest]

Both of their voices have aged so well. Still very much them, but their talent's grown even more and there's even more vocal control and richness in their singing, and their voices have matured.

[@fan_girl21]

It’s nice to see people coming back to this video even after 5 years. I think that for good is one of the most tear jearking songs I have ever listened to. The fact that Idina and Kristin sing it together makes it even more special! 💗 I literally could not imagine anyone else in those roles.

[@gaetissue]

Kristin Chenoweth is a queen who needs more recognition

[@manuelorozco7760]

That’s impossible! She can’t be underrated

[@gaetissue]

@@manuelorozco7760 I know people who know Idina Menzel but not Kristin Chenoweth

[@manuelorozco7760]

Just a random weeb That’s just wrong

[@erinmcintyre9245]

She is a wicked icon Kristen Chenoweth

[@hagenmacy1652]

Imagine being that pianist. I would be SO filled with anxiety sitting there playing for these icons

[@verityjude2269]

Hagen Macy ikr 😂

[@diamondborealis454]

To be where the pianist is, you’d have already mastered your craft. It’d be more of an honor really to play for these queens

[@Sawdustinthemakeup]

It has been a year since my friend ended her own life and nothing has been the same since. She taught me so much and I will cherish all memories I had with her. There are no words to describe the pain I feel from her passing and there is no amount of time to heal the wounds. Please if you are considering suicide just know that there are people who care about you. There are so so many things that happen after her death that she never got to experience or will get to experience. I miss her so so much but I'm still going to move forward with my life in memory of her.

[@JessicaWalker-pq8ck]

My dad has end stage cancer and has chosen this as one of his funeral songs, it breaks my heart now 💔

[@sarahhines2391]

when I saw wicked I was w my mom and her friend and the friends daughter .. People I knew all my life, my moms friend had cancer at the time and it wasn't looking good.. The way they fell into each other's arms during this song... I still cry thinking about it.. My moms friend is still with us but its surreal to think back on that time.. Ill be keeping your dad you and your family in my prayers. And gonna play this one more time for ur dad. ♥

[@ChildofGodjmh]

My prayers are with you and yours in this time, and hope the final stage in your dad's life are filled with special memories!

[@erinreese3849]

I'm so sorry. Praying for you

[@linmorin2529]

You are loved ❤

[@subashnigovender807]

This just made me cry.....

[@rosaliegudito8634]

Seeing this two legendaries singing together again after how many many years, meant the world to me.. i love them both, and no ine can ever replace these two original Elphaba and Glinda😍😢

[@stephenrector1328]

There are the two best performers of those two characters ever. The production will always be in debt to them.

[@ItsVanessaPapa]

I will never forget hearing this song performed live for the first time. I was in London watching the play for the first time. I bought a ticket last minute and sat with an obstructed view all my myself. I couldn't hold back my tears when this song was performed. Such a beautiful, powerful testiment to friendship.

[@isaiahrodriguez300]

they didn't get a duet on glee cause they would've been to powerful
