    I absolutely agree with what Jon Chu said about Cynthia singing the same words but gave it a new context. I definitely felt this when she sang "I'm Not That Girl", the theatre version tends to hold back a little bit on the emotion but Cynthia's version was a full on ballad. It made me realize that the song wasn't just about trying to hold back on her feelings for Fiyero but also about how she sees herself. The lines of "She who's winsome, she wins him. I wasn't born for the rose and pearl." It's just a very sad thing to think that Elphaba thinks she doesn't deserve these things because she's different, but in the context of the film you can understand that she feels that way about herself because she was made to feel that way growing up. Cynthia has put so much emotion on that piece. Hands down the most beautiful rendition of that song.
    The "Don't dream too far, don't lose sight of who you are." made me cry a lot too during the film because it's usually a line we tell ourselves for self-affirmation - "Don't lose sight of who you are", but in Elphaba's context it's different, it's almost a degrading feeling. Like putting herself back, not to dream too far because of who she is - an outcast.

      beautifully written I agree with everything you said! how sad that it's like a love song about how she's trying to hold herself back from loving him tied to the cage of what she's been told all her life - that she is unworthy, etc. :( thank you for your comment :)

    Cynthia was such a "STAR" before this movie, so proud of her and her journey. If you really want to hear her voice, look up her performance at the Royal London Hall, she is absolutely FANTASTIC, star power at it's best!!!

    It wouldn't have been the same without Cynthia and Ariana, and I love how they've come together and showed what woman power and sister hood and just being different or not accepted is, if you don't like the movie and you have negative feedback, you really need to ask yourself why that is

    People keep picking on her and Ariana Grande for getting emotional in the interviews. Even Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth and others who have played the roles onstage, get emotional because the story is an emotional roller coaster of female friendships. Just search for Kristin Chenoweth's last onstage performance and you can see her trying not to break down as she sings For Good. I hope they get as many Oscars as they can. IMO it's the best stage to musical movie adaptation since Chicago. Love the Wicked storyline and can't wait to see Part 2. Can feel the emotions when Cynthia Erivo's tears fall down her cheeks in Dancing Through Life and at the end in Defying Gravity scene when she realizes she will have to fly off by herself and be on her own. 💚💗💚💗💚💗

      For her, I don't think that note/riff is hard for her. When Idina sings it, though, she makes it look really hard.

      Maybe Elphaba should've put the MAGA hat on for the Ozdust ball and then her and Glinda should've ploted how to make a big wall to keep the animals out of Oz.

    Ghost casting, they do this in dancing too. Global search for “unknowns “, only to use pros/celebs.
