the reason its not like that on the soundtrack is b/c its a soundtrack. why would they have gasping on a soundtrack, its perfection. it was done in a recording studio.

A dancer might dream to see her name in lights and mean it, but all she really dreams is to make someone else feel the way she did when she first saw a dancer. And that is so beautiful-Anonymous

It's far from perfection, actually. Idina sounds about 100 times better live. Kristin sounded better live as well, IMO.

Both ladies were asked to tone down their vocals for the recording. Which happens a lot really. Coloratura and Idina-belting don't always record well for some reason. That's why Kristin's high notes are no where near as high as they were live.

Okay I will. Sorry about that. You will LOVE the show! It's got comedy romance and everything you could think of! You're lucky to have gotten the tickets before Idina left. You're going to see her on her last day. Lucky you! (Is that better for your eyes??)

Much better lol.

Actually, I'll see her on her 6 or 7th to last performance...we bought tickets when everyone thought her last day was the 2nd. I was so mad when I found out...but imagine how happy I was when I found out she extended a week! So yes, looking forward to it very much...even more looking forward to it because I get to take my best friend with me who doesn't get to see alot of shows but LOVES Bway.

Oh wow! How nice. Be sure to try and wait by the stage door. You may meet ( or atleats see ) Idina. I'm not sure but I think JLT will be playing G(a)linda. If not, Megan Hilty is good. I can't really compare. I've only seen Megan play G(a)linda. Have you read the book??

( And for future referfence you can call me either Sam or Samantha )

JLT is back as Glinda starting tonight.

I saw the matinee today-- it was amazing.
Megan was pretty good, but JLT came back for the night.

Morrible: Yes, yes, of course! Oh, You must be Miss Nessarose, the governor's daughter. What a tragically beautiful face you have! Sees Elphaba, snorts...And you must be. Elphaba: I'm the other daughter. Elphaba. I'm beautifully tragic. Morrible: Yes, yes, I'm sure you're very bright. Galinda: Bright? She's phosphorescent. i love wicked!

PJ- That's really interesting about the recording. Do you know why their voices don't record that well?

idinaroxmysox- Yeah, I guess it was just luck of the draw. I really wasn't expecting her to come out, but I was really glad she did.
