Posted: 12/20/04 at 10:52pmYou know, I only recently joined, and I love Wicked a lot, but creating a whole thread just so you can say you think Defying Gravity gives you chills, come on? But thanks for covering it up by not putting it first, really made a difference :)

'Will I?', 'Another Day' and 'Halloween' from Rent gave me the chills
'One Day More' and the Finale from Les Miserables left me totaly awe struck
'My Strongest Suit' from Aida made me want to scream something along the lines of 'you go girl' haha
Here in this cold white room tied up to these machines, it's hard to imagine life as it used to be. Laughing, screaming, tumbling queen... Like the most amazing light show you've ever seen. Whirling, swirling, never blue... How could you go and die? What a selfish thing to do...
RIP Jason

Posted: 12/20/04 at 11:06pmI didn't create a thread just so I can say that "DF" gave me chills when I saw the show. Please, you're new here right? This isn't exactly my first day at the rodeo, my friend.

"given you chills and made your heart rate speed up"
The above symptoms lead me to come to the diagnostic conclusion that you have experienced an eargasm.
"I am ready to disclaim my opinion, even of yesterday, even of 10 minutes ago, because all opinions are relative. One lives in a field of influences, one is influenced by everyone one meets, everything is an exchange of influences, all opinions are derivative. Once you deal a new deck of cards, you've got a new deck of cards."

From themes denoting the pursuit of ideals or love of country
The Impossible Dream ( Man of La Mancha
The reprise of "Camelot"
Anthem ( Chess)
Do You Hear the People Sing/ ( Les Miserables)
From the sheer beauty of the singing --
Seeing is Believing ( Aspects of Love)
Love Changes Everything ( Aspects of Love)
Too Much In Love to Care ( Sunset Boulevard)
From the sheer emotion or the romanticism--
Once Before I Go (The Boy from Oz)
Dulcinea ( Man of La Mancha)
Empty Chairs at Empty Tables ( Les Miserables)
With One Look ( Sunset Boulevard)
People ( Funny Girl)
I have probably forgotten a few others at the moment - but I know that I love live performances because of the emotional impact that musical theatre has on the audience.

Posted: 12/21/04 at 1:46am"confrontation" from Jekyll and Hyde. I dunno, maybe it was just seeing it live (on the tour), but the power that the guy has to put into that song, and the emotion and the energy, gives me chills.
Love,
Miss Britt

Practically every song from Ragtime.
The Wizard and I
Almost any song Lillias White has done.
"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive.
"Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot."
"No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one."
Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

When someone blunders, we say that he makes a misstep. Is it then not clear that all the ills of mankind, all the tragic misfortunes that fill our history books, all the political blunders, all the failures of the great leaders have arisen merely from a lack of skill in dancing. - Moliere

Posted: 12/21/04 at 9:09amUsually, its not a song that gives me chills - its the performance - so I attribute the chills to the performer, combined with good material.
"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!"
Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

Posted: 12/21/04 at 9:11amIsn't that a given? I didn't mean just the songs, I had specific performances in mind, as I'm sure everyone else did.

Thanks BwayBoy88. That gave me chills and I was onstage singing with him. Not to be picky but you left out about 30 of the folks in the choir. It was Mr. Arden and 80 astounding voices.
I know this seems lame, but A New Life from Jekyl & Hyde. When I saw that with Lucy and the bed all in white it was breathtaking.
That's the first thing that comes to mind... I'll have to think for a bit.

Just last night I witnessed Chuck Cooper absolutely taking the breath and stopping the heart of the entire audience when he sang about the death of JFK in Caroline, or Change. Unbelievable!
This type of discussion ALWAYS makes me remember Jennifer Holliday singing And I am Telling You from Dreamgirls.
