@@iAmMadeOfSoup don’t get me wrong I love Jessica , she is one of my absolute favorites, but she was more of just a really good healthy singer with good riffs... but the emotion quality wasn’t all there. Willemijn does a great job with emotions! Love her as well. Jess is just very technical which is good but it suppresses what Elphaba needs to be feeling in that moment.
Best duo ever in Wicked. No one can replace Kristin or Idina. They are one of the reasons that made this musical number so popular. Without them, I feel like watching something else.
Most people don't get to see any musical with the original cast. That's just not how it works. No original cast is going to do it for as long as it runs and everywhere it plays. They have always had multiple casts traveling with the show. I don't think I've ever seen the original cast of any show I have ever seen in Detroit or Toronto but I still enjoyed the show. In this case, I read the book long before the musical and really liked it. Obviously, the musical takes liberties and can't cover everything a book can.
Idina’s acting when morrible first calls her a wicked witch and she says she isn’t afraid… CHILLS, I tell you. I have seen many good Elphabas on TH-cam, many with beautiful voices and fantastic acting… but when it comes to showing the emotion of the character and really making you feel for Elphaba… nobody tops Idina.
I love the smile Idina has when she sings the line “close my eyes and leap.” So much passion! She breathes life into the character. Like many fans, this moment is what made me fall in love with this musical.
I can only say that I want the original cast to be back in when they make the movie. I know there's concerns for aging and how their voice changed but I want a second chance to see that chemistry!
The Benchmarks by which all other PERFORMANCES shall be measured. We focus so much on the singing - which is exceptional, but the character work here - by these two = just exquisite. 100% integrated - storytellers at their core. The architects. They are the truth 💚💛
Idina's eyes during defying gravity are everything. Really.😍 thank you so much for uploading this collection of gems, I was looking for these performances like for ages lol😍 such a good quality too!
there have been elphabas with better control but i love the original cast so much because without them wicked wouldn't be wicked, there has been no better popular than with kristin and idina
It is completely incredible to me that this was almost 20 years ago. I remember it so vividly. It still gets me all emotional because it is just so good. A memory of my youth.
Can’t believe how far Wicked has come and now a movie being released. I always wanted to see the Broadway show with Idina and Kristin but never got the chance. Thank you for uploading this.
10,11 or 12 years later they are both on disney Idina menzal as the original vouce of queen elsa in frozen. Kristen chenwoth as tthe live action version of maleficent ind disney decendnats
Saw wicked for the first time yesterday and I absolutely loved it ❤ hearing defying gravity live was a moment I will never forget! Do i wish I could see idina menzel sing it ? Yes I do 🤣 Whoever saw these two back In the day were very lucky!! I don't think anyone can do Kristens comedic ways shes just brilliant!
Same I saw wicked on Sunday and it was amazing and I feel you I wish I could’ve seen it with idina and Kristen but I was not even 1 when they opened and I agree whoever got to see it with them was so lucky 💚💗
I have seen it 15 times and 3 times with the originals. Never was I disappointed with the touring acts I saw. They were fantastic. Never had a bad experience. Why 15 times? Because I just love it. After Dreamgirls and seeing it 17 times with Jefnnifer Holiday, these 2 musicals will always be on my list to watch.
2024 and still waiting for a full OBC pro-shot 😢 PRODUCER AND TEAM please read this and do release it (surely we'd pay bucks for it) after the movie comes out!!! Desperately need Idina, Kristin, and Norbert doing Wicked!!
Loved the original super-bubbly “Popular” in SF when Glinda hovered in a circle in Wizard of Oz gown. Disappointed that they changed the best song. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wicked_(musical)#Original_cast
Do you by any chance have a video of the original NessaRose in Dancing Through Life? I've been looking for it for ages to no avail... I'd be grateful forever 🙁🌷
Damn! they are so good! you can feel all the emotions into every song. Now that we are having the Wicked Movie with Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. I´m so happy but also nervous!, I know it´ll be different cause Idina and Kritsten won´t be there but I hope the movie is GOOD! I can´t wait to see it! Ariana and Cynthia have Wonderful and Amazing voices!
Hey! Have you got the original source of the video? As in not a YT download? I'm working on restoring Defying Gravity, but there are interlacing artefacts, and since YT turns everything into proscan, it's basically a proscan with interlacing artifacts and if I were to deinterlace the video downloaded from YT it would be useless and not work
hey Idina Menzel, I want to be just like you when Im older, you are my idol. I wish one day we will meet, if you want to meet me come to tampa Florida, land o lakes at pine view middle school. i just think you are so kind, loving,beautiful, women. I love your singing and you have shown me to just be me in any way and I thank you for that.
You mean Elphasa/Elsaba (Elphie+Elsa), since they're played by the same person (Idina Menzel) & are both elemental (fire for Elphie & frozen water for Elsa) reformed iconic fairytale villainesses reworked into tragic protagonists (The Wicked Witch of the West [Elphaba] & The Snow Queen [Elsa]).
th-cam.com/video/UuX3B28n2-Q/w-d-xo.html different cast and not the best video, but i personally like the Glinda and Elphaba better in this one. Edit: remember, do not like or comment on the vid do it doesnt get taken down. Cast info is already in the comments.
Sure there's a looot of elphabas and glindas who technically sing better, but nobody can touch Idina and Kristin. Its just idk...they're perfect for the role.
@@ahugewickedfan4292 I still meant Idina era bootlegs. You tell me this was the best they could do? They proved they could do better with Idina's 2nd bootleg in 2004, but still that was fairly limited. You're telling me they couldn't play with angles more? They did just that in 2006 in her London proshot
@@jjtamuyao and even with asthma, she’s a legend. Tired of hearing other people bitching about her and saying she can’t sing. They are even worse nowadays. Thank you for pointing this out

One short day started at 0:19. 0:00 was the end of No One Mourns the Wicked (or the finale i haven’t listened to them in a hot minute)
Kristen and Idina’s chemistry is unmatched
100th like
I’ve never seen an Elphaba put so much EMOTION into “Defying Gravity” than Idina Menzel
Jessica Vosk and Willemijn
@@iAmMadeOfSoup I don't think Willemijn can surpass Idina's emotion she makes when portraying Elphaba...Liked her voice tho.
The actual trembling that elphaba does , I have seen that being done may be only by Idina...🥺🥺🥺
@@iAmMadeOfSoup Jessica Vosks riffs were impressive, but they took the emotional quality way down

I payyyyyy to see the original cast

I liked the ending part, when she soars as the "Wicked" witch. It was amazing to see her really defy gravity
0:19 nice to see the hat they planned to use in No one mourns the wicked but it was so complicated that they just gave up.
I hope someday they'll release the full OBC proshot 😭
Ryan Faure So do I!!!
Same 🥺😭❤️
ᴠᴇʀɪᴛʏ ᴊᴜᴅᴇ :D hi again 😊😊😊👋👋👋
Isabel Erhart hi??
I think there's a pro-shoot with the obc...but they'll never going to show it
Forever my favourite Elphaba and Glinda
I can only say that I want the original cast to be back in when they make the movie. I know there's concerns for aging and how their voice changed but I want a second chance to see that chemistry!
me, being here 2021 crying over the OG bway cast. Yup it's an everyday mood:)
I would give my life for a release of an OBC full show pro shot
Idina and Kristin were born to play these roles!
I’d pay my soul to see this cast
Katie Kat id pay more than my soul if that’s possible...................
The things I’d do for this
Saw their r last performance together. Awesome ! And just needed to spend $100. No souls required
Idina's eyes are everything 11:45
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
Her facial expressions give me life
The Benchmarks by which all other PERFORMANCES shall be measured. We focus so much on the singing - which is exceptional, but the character work here - by these two = just exquisite. 100% integrated - storytellers at their core. The architects. They are the truth 💚💛
Absolutely!
The two dislikes are Madame morrible and the wizard
I like to call her Madame horrible
Non-magical MF’ers. 😆
Omg Idina’s riff at 4:30 on “I know” was so beautiful
That anxious "grunt" at 8:35 by Kristin Chenoweth one of the MAIN reasons I looked this video up! I LOVED this play!
This show has come a long way.
Well snap, that just brought a 52 year old man to tears
Idina's eyes during defying gravity are everything. Really.😍 thank you so much for uploading this collection of gems, I was looking for these performances like for ages lol😍 such a good quality too!
7:45 when kristen has her "oh my god" while under her breath lmaoo
I thought it was "Oh forget it"
@@minimous0983 it was
there have been elphabas with better control but i love the original cast so much because without them wicked wouldn't be wicked, there has been no better popular than with kristin and idina
This show was truly created for Idina and Kristin
Idina singing The Wizard And I is such a cutie💚💚💚
I would love to see the entire show 😭😭😭

17:50-18:19 I really love the facial expressions and honestly hers is the best Defying Gravity high note love it! 💚💚💚
These two are the BEST!!!😍😍😍
I wasn’t born yet when all of this footage was taken. That’s crazy 🥲
These women are magnificent, mesmerizing.
Best cast ever
This is an outstanding collection.
I like Idina and Kristen as Elphaba and Glinda. I hope to see this musical after this pandemic, If Phantom doesn't come back to Broadway.
I’ve been looking for soooo long and I finally found the best quality Wicked video!
This is the best thing I’ve seen in a very long time. Thank you.
I’m so happy you brought this back! Not long ago I was looking for it but it wasn’t there.
This is fantastic. What a massive store of the best song by the originators.
they are great!
人生で、この作品に出会えて本当にラッキーだった。大好き！

I love the "ball gown" part... Idina was so funny
I love this! Thank you for uploading it! God bless you!!!!
Truly ive been waiting my life
Let's be real, both Kristin and Idina should have tied for the best lead actress Tony
This is a gift from baby jesus
Thank you so much for this im gonna cry

Im crying 🙏
Love love love
I would pay good money for a full cast recording with the OBC
8:30 it's so funny in there and cute too
Loved the original super-bubbly “Popular” in SF when Glinda hovered in a circle in Wizard of Oz gown. Disappointed that they changed the best song. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wicked_(musical)#Original_cast
Defying Gravity works way better on stage than it does in the sound track or pop songs.
9:34 😭💗😭💚😭💗😭💚😭💗😭
Without Irina and Kristen the film Will be worth missing .
Do you by any chance have a video of the original NessaRose in Dancing Through Life? I've been looking for it for ages to no avail... I'd be grateful forever 🙁🌷
Where did you find this?! This is awesome!
I wish I had a pocket Kristin.
How come they’ve never made a movie?
Damn! they are so good! you can feel all the emotions into every song. Now that we are having the Wicked Movie with Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. I´m so happy but also nervous!, I know it´ll be different cause Idina and Kritsten won´t be there but I hope the movie is GOOD! I can´t wait to see it! Ariana and Cynthia have Wonderful and Amazing voices!
I love your movie I am 7years old + o
😍😍😍😍
This is cool! Is there a possible way for me to trade for it?

Do you have a script on this musical stage play?
Try to search it up on google I’m certain there will be one
anyone else wondering what they did with the big witch hat they used to used at the top ofg the show before the silhouette replaced it?
Why is Glinda and Fiyero not Kristin and Norbert in the one short day part?
There are two casts in the video, the OBC and the 2004 one
hey Idina Menzel, I want to be just like you when Im older, you are my idol. I wish one day we will meet, if you want to meet me come to tampa Florida, land o lakes at pine view middle school. i just think you are so kind, loving,beautiful, women. I love your singing and you have shown me to just be me in any way and I thank you for that.
