    This is the song. Everyone thinks defying gravity is the theme song but this is the one that captures the entire feeling of the show and the relationship of the characters.

    The line that guts me every time: "It well may be that we will never meet again in this lifetime." It wrecks me. My partner of 20 years, Michael, and I had tickets to see this show on Broadway in December of 2008. At the end of November, he suddenly got very ill, and were unable to travel to NYC to see the show. I gave the tix to my cousin and her sister in law (they had a blast). On January 1 of 2009, Michael went into ICU and never came out. He passed on March 3rd from lymphoma. The following year I finally got to see the show when it came to San Diego. I bawled my eyes out when they performed this song, thinking about Michael, especially when Elphaba sings the line I mentioned. It just resonates with me that we never know when might be the last time we'll be with someone. He would have loved this show. Now, every time I see Wicked (six times and counting), and every time I hear this song, I think of him ... and yes, I cry, EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. LOL ... Stephen Schwartz is a genius.

    I know I am late to this video and haven’t read all the comments, but I want to point something out. At about 4:35, when they sing that they’ve been changed for the better, the harmony shifts. The entire musical, when these two harmonized, Elphaba went low and Glinda went high. Here, they switch.

    The song is beautiful, these voices are sublime, but it's the meaning behind the words that make this song so powerful. How we treat others, whether it's a single encounter or a relationship of any kind, can change a person's life or even the course of history. Makes you think about those who have impacted your life even by a single comment and especially love those who made a big impact and feel sorrow if they are no longer in your life. It also makes you reflect on how you have treated others and wonder how much you might have changed them not for the better but possibly for good.

    I love this show and have seen it multiple (multiple, multiple) times. This is truly a song that hits my heart and I have sent it to several friends over the years as a "this is you and me" song. Because they each changed me in different ways, fill different roles and have done life with me in "our" way. This is a glorious song. These two ladies ... whoof. Adore them! You MUST see this. No choice. Next time it comes near you, just go. Get a ticket by yourself and go to the Wednesday matinee. (And then go back on Saturday night.)

    People wouldn't really define this as a "love song", but imo, it's the most loving song I've ever heard, and it hits me way harder than any romantic ballad ever could. I cry every time I listen to it, and it's just...so spectacularly moving. Absolutely love that this hit you in the same way, and I loved the reaction! I hope you get the chance to see Wicked someday, bc obvs this song gets even more meaningful w/ the proper context, as Elphaba and Glinda's relationship is obvs the heart of the whole show, and so many of the other songs contain at least a little part that deepens their relationship, so by the time you get to this song, "For Good", the weight of the meaning really hits home hard, bc you've gotten to SEE that impact that they're singing about for yourself. 💖

      @kiryn5977 18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@TherealRNOwwfpooh Listen, I am absolutely a Gelphie shipper, and won't disagree with this headcanon. However, it's still unfortunately a fact that most ppl wouldn't define "For Good" as the love song of Wicked, which is why I said what I did at the beginning of my comment. Do I think that it rightfully SHOULD be considered a love song? Yes, especially as Elphaba & Glinda's relationship is the true heart and soul of the musical, and therefore this song imo hits way harder than "As Long as You're Mine" or even "No Good Deed", as Elphaba/Fiyero hasn't had anywhere near the depth and development that Elphaba & Glinda's relationship got. But given that my comment was being left on a video of someone who hasn't seen the show, I felt it would be confusing and not fair to write something that could lead to my headcanons being misconstrued as the actual canon, and so I wrote my initial comment accordingly.

      @TherealRNOwwfpooh 18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@kiryn5977 What I said was irrefutable FACT. This was CONFIRMED directly by "Word of God" (in this case, _Wicked: The Life & Times of The Wicked Witch of the West_ source author Gregory MaGuire, as he CONFIRMED Elphie to be BISEXUAL & heavily suggested that Elphie was also NON-BINARY & INTERSEX whereas it is painfully obvious that G[a]linda IS BISEXUAL, since it's Gregory MaGuire's progressive reinterpretation & not necessarily L. Frank Baum's original OZ work that _Wicked_ - as both a stage musical & the forthcoming pair of theatrical movie adaptations starring Cythia Arivo & Ariana "Cat Valentine" Grande as Elphie & G[a]linda, respectively - was based upon, although to be fair, Gregory McGuire himself took great liberties from both the original L. Frank Baum literary material as well as the 1939 MGM film; i.e. having The Wicked Witch of the West continue to utilize Margaret Hamilton's iconic portrayal as a prevailing influence BUT also subsequently turn Elphie into a "beautifully tragic" protagonist rather than letting her remain a cackling villain who terrifies children & particular adults of certain generations AND still compartmentalizing the two Good Witches - in the original "Famous 40" OZ stories by L. Frank Baum & his successors, the two Good witches were the initially unnamed Good Witch of the North, who would later be named Tattypoo in later variations of the classic story that decided to keep her & Glinda as two distinctly separate characters, but was the one who had met Dorothy Gale in Munchkinland, had given Dorothy ownership over the magicked footwear of the departed Wicked Witch of the East, and even gave the young child a Kiss to the Forehead which worked as a protective charm to magically prevent The Wicked Witch of the West from physically harming the displaced Kansas farm girl AND Glinda the Good, who was initially the Good Witch of the South, since she originally resided in the South's Quadling county - into one by making Glinda the Good Witch of the North - to that end, in the _Wicked_ reimagining, G[a]linda's surname is Upland & she's from the upper lands to the North, from whence her family's last name is derived - and essentially acting as if there were only 3 major witches instead of four: Glinda as the Good Witch of the North & the two supposedly "wicked" witch half-sisters of the East & West regions, namely Nessarose & Elphaba, who, respectively, ended up flattened by the flying Gale farmhouse carried to OZ by tornado - the cyclone, as far as the narrative in _Wicked_ is concerned, was summoned out of thin air by Madame Morrible to lure Elphie out of hiding by threatening her half-sister Nessa - and liquidated/melted by water, although in the stage musical to send theatergoers home happy with a "bittersweet happy ending", Elphie only feigns her death by melting, however in the 1995 novel, her becoming a watery puddle on the floor of Kiamo Ko Castle was very real, as Elphie had a fatal water allegery, hence why she bathed in an oil-based substitute instead, so the 1995 novel ends tragically for our main character).

    Oh Travis, Travis, Travis.....
    We have *GOT* to stop with the waterworks, or buy stock in Kleenex if you plan to react to every song on this album! This is my favorite song from this show (followed closely by Defying Gravity) and your reactions often reduce me to tears...in a good way. Oh, hell. The whole soundtrack is fabulous. I first fell in love with the book *"WICKED"* by Gregory Maguire when it came out almost thirty years ago. (He has since written three excellent sequels) I loved the story and the message. Then twenty years ago the first book was adapted beautifully for the stage and turned into a musical! Of course I didn't get to see it until five years later. And fell in love with it again. Now I understand it's being made into a movie (to be released in two years) with Ariana Grande as Glinda and Jeff Goldbloom as the Wizard! It's one of those gifts that just keeps on giving and giving and giving.....Another one of those things I have to learn patience to survive, grrrrr. In the meantime, a few years ago, there was a 15th Anniversary Wicked Halloween Special with past and current cast members and other stars (Adam Lambert, Pentatonix, etc.) performing the songs. Maybe not to react to...but at least to enjoy. Should be out there somewhere on TH-cam!

Kinda showing how she thought she was better than Elphie. But in this one, Elphaba did! Showing that Glinda went through a bit of an emotional maturity. Holly crap lol
