Well this Gay boy, and the other one think it's ridiculous, so no offense meant.
First of all let's not even begin to put Idina or Eden in a "legend" category. They may be popular now but certainly have not reached that status yet. Only time will tell in that aspect. As for the note in the end of the song- It just doesn't flow. Sounds out of place and forced. Hopefully someone will cut it.

What I mean is I see her being worshipped for being the amazing understudy that can sing like no other. Not that it is or will be warranted, just like we can't really tell yet if the Eden worship is or isn't warranted because she hasn't established herself yet. Just the way things tend to be, I wouldn't be surprised to see her become what Eden became in Wicked. I kind of hope it doesn't work that way, though. For everyone's sake.
"State of Jade" - what a perfect name you've chosen: The envy oozes out of you like green bile.
Ustadance...do yourself a favor. Grow up. I'm sorry that your brain is't large enough to understand that people have differing opinions .
And I agree, GFfrom Canada...I REALLY want to see Caren in the role.

Dearest Jade: It's not the difference of opinions I was remarking about, I welcome that. It was the manner in which it was expressed that revealed your true feelings. And, you know what Bette Midler has been saying for years: "You don't get it because you don't get it."
I had the radio on at work today. I heard some horrific screeching - at first I didn't even realize it was supposed to be singing - and listened carefully to hear them announce what they were advertising. Yes, it was Eden in an ad for BROOKLYN. My first and so far only exposure to the show. I was truly horrified. Who the hell wrote that??? And directed, produced, the list goes on...
im glad im not the only one who thought she was screaming. im kinda dissapointed casue i got tickets for opening night. i hope she was just screaming casue it was in the middleof time square.
I totally agree that Eden is too screech and not suited for belting. Idina was WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY Better!!
Of course, Ustadance. Just because I strongly dislike Eden, I MUST be extremley envious of her. Trust me, I found nothing envious about her performance. But thanks for trying to figure me out.
