Defying Gravity

This song is Defying Gravity from Wicked and in this clip is Kristen Chenoweth and Idina Menzel at The Tony Awards.

I was thinking of the message of this song and the problems that the characters are facing. Elphaba is taking a leap, going against what everyone tells her she has to do, doing something that she wants to do without caring what everyone else thinks about her. This is one issue of the song. Then you also have the friendship between Ephaba and Glinda. They want the best for each other but they realize that theirs is not the same path.
