No one kill me, but I would love to perform Defying Gravity, only because I can't imagine what it would be like to have all those spotlights on you, high above the audience, people looking up at you, belting like there's no tomorrow, and that ending, BAM. Darkness.



...Yeah, I think that'd be cool.

Just so you know:

There is a difference between "sex" and "gender"
Sex is anatomical whereas gender is a social construct.
Therefore, you can undergo a sex operation, but there are no gender operations (at least not in the medical/surgical sense). A gender change would be to go about changing one's self-presentation (dress, hair, voice, personality, behavior)

And to stay on subject, female-sung songs I'd love to perform are:

"No Good Deed" - Wicked
"How Did We Come To This?" - The Wild Party (Lippa)
"Privilege to Pee" - Urinetown
"Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again" - Phantom
"I Know The Truth" - Aida
"See I'm Smiling" - Last Five Years
