Of course I can't talk about Wicked without having to share these treasures I found on YouTube. [And here's hoping they won't be taken down.]
These videos feature the original leads, Idina Menzel as Elphaba (the green, "Wicked" Witch of the West) and Kristin Chenoweth as Glinda the Good. I found other versions but no one beats the originals. Song lyrics and interpretations can be found here. Beyond the spectacle, Wicked is about keeping your integrity despite losing your reputation, doing what you believe is right, and above all the power of friendship.
