WICKED | How the Music of "Defying Gravity" is DEFYING EXPECTATIONS!

[@if3359]

I've been a big Wicked fan for years, and never knew about the "follow the yellow brick road" connection 😮 thanks for revealing it!

[@eusouojack]

Amazing! Thanks for sheeding some light onto the brilliant work of Stephen Schwartz and walking laypeople like me through it. I appreciate the song a lot more now!

I love how you put the song with the comments at the end to fully understand what you explained in the video. I don’t know anything about music theory so it really helped.

Fantastic musical analysis! Reminds me of some of my favourite videos from Sideways or HowardHo! Can’t wait to dig through some more of your videos ❤

[@kevinhrankowski734]

Love your harmonic analysis of the music. I love it when I see videos made by people who clearly know their music theory. 😊

good video, I felt like I learned more about music with it, which has always been an interest of mine, Steven Schwartz kind of a genius. I'd love to see a video on Let It Go from Frozen, it feels so similar to Defying Gravity, funny enough both is sung by Idina Menzel, and I'm pretty sure Frozen and Elsa's characterization is inspired by Wicked
