Question: Defying Gravity!!?
Everytime I listen to Defying Gravity, I get shivers!. Why is Wicked so amazing!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Wicked is amazing because it goes where no other musical has gone(successfully that is)!. It deals with women(their friendships, love, choices, etc), what happened before Dorothy dropped in, and looking at the bigger picture of things!. For just over a century, The Wizard of Oz has been accepted as what happened in Oz when Dorothy landed her house on Nessarose, but no one knew what happened before then!. So Wicked has shown us that everything we ever thought of being simply 'Good' and 'Wicked' must be examined, for there are always at least two sides to every story!.

Wicked has a story that everyone can relate to at some degree!. Well, its more girls and women who can relate to it, but that is what makes it so OZsome!. As a tribute to Elphaba, I wear something green every day!. Sure people notice after a while, but I've always been more of an outcast!. And before I do/say anything I always ask myself: WWED/S!? or What Would Elphaba Do/Say!?

[from my fanfiction!.com profile]
I am a Wicked fan because:
I am WONDERFUL,
I am POPULAR,
I have DANCED THROUGH LIFE,
I have DEFIED GRAVITY,
I know Wicked is FOR GOOD,
I have dreamed of just THE WIZARD AND I,
I have attended DEAR OLD SHIZ,
I have become THAT GIRL,
I have asked WHAT IS THIS FEELING,
I have spent ONE SHORT DAY in the emerald city,
I know that NO GOOD DEED goes unpunished,
I know that AS LONG AS YOUR MINE, i'll be fine,
I believe that SOME ONE MOURNS THE WICKED,
I know what SOMETHING BAD was,
I know the SENTIMENTAL MAN,
I have said THANK GOODNESS,
I have MARCHED WITH THE WITCH HUNTERS,
I was there for the FINALE!

I get shivers everytime I listen to Defying Gravity as well because the music and lyrics are so brilliant that whenever I listen to it I truly feel no one can pull me down!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
