Exactly how did they rework that song? And is that dance still there at the end - I love the sound in that part on my CD.

I just saw it. they didnt change it too much. i happen to like it better now. there are a few more lines. yes all the dancing is still there, and all the lights and its still very fun. "wonderful" is used a lot though in that song. i guess it makes sense. there is a slow part they added in it now too that elphaba sings. its really nice. it got a lot of applause. i think george is a great wizard, very different from joel but thats ok

This song is so boring.

It was really meaningful and great when Robert Morse did it. Anyone know why he didn't go on to the Broadway production?

Ah. thats too bad, he was really good. But I'm so glad they replaced Kirk McDonald with Christopher Fitzgerald, he just sucked.

Well, at least he had a good reason! I'm interested to see the changes, tho, as I love Joel's version of the song
