Defying Gravity Audio



There are of course dozens of audience audios on Youtube -- many are very poor quality, but this recording is better than most and definitely worth featuring.

Also thought it worth including the accompanying viewer comments, just in case anyone was unsure of how audiences rate Rachel's Elphie!

I was at the show just the day before, and Rachel (and all the others) was absolutely stunning !
She made me laugh, she made me cry, she made me dream! Since then, I've spent hours on Youtube watching videos of her performances ^^
I'm going back to London in august and I hope Rachel will still be on stage at that time *_*

This audio is incredible especially the notes at the end!!!

....however.... for the
"it's the wizard who should be afraid.. of me" part...
WHY is it so polite and nice...

surely it should be like she's seething and angry.

I watched Wicked on 29th December. I enjoyed it SO much. Rachel's voice is wonderful. Her singing/acting is the best one I have ever seen. I have watched other musicals in the West End before and Wicked is definitely my favourite. I'm bringing my parents to watch it in June!!!
