Absolutely 😢

Idina’s voice cracking on “but..because I knew you” Because she was getting emotional made me cry even harder haha 😭

For Good is one of the best musical theatre duets... and it really belongs singularly to Idina and Kristin. It’s just perfect.

Is anyone else incredibly impressed by how much Idina’s vocals have grown and matured over the years? She sounds like she can get such a full sound now even when relaxed. I’ve always LOVED her voice, but I’m amazed at how much she’s grown since Wicked

I still think they could take on the roles it is perfection and magic to watch them together! I love how this song is truly a narration of Kristen and Idina’s friendship not just their characters 💜

In Brazil 🇧🇷 we were also blessed with the friendship between our Glinda and Elphie 💚🩵

You just don't mess with "For Good." Idina & Kristin forever! They should have the roles. This is how you bring relationship into performance. This should be study material for every musical theatre person.

This was one of the best performances of this song, since the original Broadway recording that I've seen them do. AMAZING! WOULD LOVE to see them in the film!

I agree, these ladies need to carry the movie. Idina is so relivent at the moment. She can carry it and so deserves it. She is and always will be Elphaba. 💕

Of the many things that are so great about this song is that ... it's one of the most perfect 'love songs'. You can sing it to anyone - a sibling, parent, child, bestie...even the lunch lady if she made an impact in your life.

Every time Kristin sings the opening verses into the chorus, im teary eyed! She has a great way of putting emotions into her words and then we are followed by Idina with the other half with the violins. Ugh, beautiful beautiful performance! they really bring the characters to life even in this stage!

Omg thank you for appreciating them, especially idina. She’s such an amazing performer and she just deserves everything good. Also YES GIVE THEM THE EFFING MOVIE

This song just makes me think of my best friend who passed away in 2017. Makes me weep every time

Me too..my partner for 20 years..he loves Wicked..

We saw that look after "Thats so wicked". :) Great reaction. This song and these two never get old!

I agree this is one of the best performances they’ve done of this song. It’s getting better, not less good.

I've cried everytime I saw this live. I think it's such a moving piece because the connection is so simple and palpable between the two characters on stage. You dont need to think about the story or themes or anything else. It's just human connection.

When you think of the part of musical that this is, Glinda and Elphaba would be that bit older, so Idina and Kristin would be perfect. You could even have two actors play the younger versions until the house falling and let these ladies take over from there. I think Idina said the earrings were emerald, she had a ring too and green nail polish as a nod to Elphaba with the black dress. I adore these ladies and loved your reaction Marc.

Yeah! Totally! I can see dove Cameron as a younger Kristin, and Lea Michele as a younger Idina. The family resemblance is incredible and undeniable.

I know - it will forever make me sad that they didn’t make the movie when these 2 could be the leads. Honestly I’d almost rather they animate it so they can get the original cast without it looking weird

@@perryjones7771 Finally someone who agrees with me! CGI and makeup are very powerful things. But no. There can't be anyone older than 30 in movies now. I never got the chance to see Idina and Kristin on Wicked, and it has been a dream of mine. I thought I would get to see them in the movie. People I know have asked me if I am excited about Ariana. The honest answer is no, I'm not. They should have given the role to someone who did a really memorable Glinda on Broadway. They could also have Idina and Kristin play the roles in act 2, so they can do this song and No good deed. On another note, do you know if there is going to be a 20th reunion for Wicked? I have searched everywhere and all I found was a 2021 clip of Idina saying how they still text back and forth ideas.

I remember the criticism Mel Brooks received when he made the film of The Producers with Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane so soon after the musical won the Tony. But Brooks said he wanted to make the movie while the original cast was still believable in the parts. Perhaps the producers of Wicked should have done the same. Thank you for another lovely reaction.

everytime they do this song and hold eachothers hands i cry

Thank you for pausing when you did cause I was about to be a blubbering mess. This song gets me every time, and then add Kristin tearing up and it’s over. This performance is solid gold.

One of the greatest love songs of musical theatre. I love that it celebrates friendship instead of romance.

I love listening to Kristin and Idina sing this song!!!!! You are right Marc, it is their song!!!

It's amazing they still get emotional after singing it for almost 20 years

can you blame them?

I can never understand how any duo covers this song and doesn't end it in a hug.

Forgiveness is one of the most powerful things in the world, and their relationship is such proof of that. Watch the one they recorded a few years ago, and watch this one back to back. Whatever happened between them back that was.. clearly not good, even though we all knew that, we don’t know the depths of it. And, their love and admiration for one another is better then ever. Kristen seems to be a much more emotional person then Idina. She always seemed to be the stronger one of the two, so for Idina to get emotional? This is something so special. I love this.

The harmonies get me every time! Beautiful!

I have been tearing up to this song for 17 years. This is the penultimate version; imitated but never topped.

It is one of my favs. Kristin starting gave me chills.

Totally agree with you. These two are unbeatable. For me they will always be my Glinda and Elphaba ♥

YASSSS the only queens I wanna hear singing for good 🙌🏻🙌🏻🔥🔥 amazing review

This was my favorite part of the Tonys too! I love watching those 2 perform together its so natural for them and they seem to have a really close friendship..

I love their chemistry

Just when i thought i watched every For Good performances on KZread and nothing could make me cry again, then i watched this one. Timeless classic by this 2 Legends

Gorgeous girls!!! So talented and beautiful, what great chemistry between the two😢

Thanks. It does not get better than these two amazing ladies performing this song 😊 Love it 🥰

Might not stop crying all day now 😍❤️

I balled my eyes out during this song when i saw them on broadway and i did the same watching this video. The two of them together , performing thi, is truly a wonder of the world!

I cannot listen to this song without crying :)

What makes these videos is the LOVE of musicals and performers shown.

I will admit that this was one of the Tony Award highlights; my favorite being the duet with Audra McDonald & Brian Stokes Mitchell. Kristin Chenoweth, for me, is the crown jewel of Broadway. She is one of those rare singers who can shift from an unencumbered chest voice to her soaring, glorious coloratura voice. She is a brilliant, intelligent singer who knows how to pace herself. I saw her in "Wicked" and she was brilliant. Idina sounded more vocally relaxed and rested with this Tony [performance. . When I saw her in "Wicked" she barely held her top notes in Defying Gravity and No Good Deed. She was strained and harsh sounding compared to Kristin's flawless vocals. For me, Kristin is a genuine performer who delivers genuine performances in the characters she is playing. Marc, I will continue to remind you how much I enjoy your videos and watching you and listening to you. Sigh! That said, I will always hope that you will one day present a video all about you. Thank you so much for all you are doing for musical theatre.

@@MarcDanielPatrick Wow! I got to hear directly from you. What an unexpected, welcomed surprise. I 100% respect all of your assessments/opinions. Because Kristen always delivers authenticity, her duet and emotions were equally authentic. I think the voices of Audra & Brian as love interests in the early 1900’s coupled with the stirring music communicated the hopes of racial minorities during that period of history. So, for that reason it worked for me. I was moved. And yes Kristen and only Kristen moved me.You are my absolute favorite on KZread and Patreon. Thank you for taking the time to respond. Love what you do!

Absolutely one of my favorites!! I love this song. I wish they could do the film. I agree they should have done it years ago when they could have done it. I personally think they could do it now, we turn a blind eye to age in casting a lot of the time anyway.

Iconic performance 👏🏼.

If you don’t cry alive already done if for you. Damn

The first time I'd ever heard of Kristin (I'm a latecomer to the world of musical theatre) was when she made her first appearance in The West Wing! Some bright spark decided to set this song to a tribute video to Jon Spencer, who died while filming the final season of the show. If you want waterworks, that's the video to go to. Also, on that final "because I knew you", surely it would have sounded GREAT if one of them had harmonised with the 3rd note above... am I right?!

This was my graduating class from high schools xhoice song to represent us. This was the same year we lost 4 classmates, 2 teachers and our campus security guard who was out whole world. The security guards family brought his ashes to our graduation and a lot of us gathered around his asjes and sang this

i wanna cry tooooooo

SO CUTE!!! I LOVE THEM!!! SUCH QUEENS

They could animate the movie and hav them... then there will be no concerns about age. And if there’s any musical that would work really well animated it’s wicked

Damn it man, I saw what you were going to watch and the first thing I thought was “I have to see if he cries when Kristin does” you fooled me!

Love this performance!! Obviously cried😭❤️

I just loved it ❤️

First video I’ve seen of you… I love it. I loved it all.

Great song, great performance, great reaction and analysis.

We are so excited for Broadway to come back here too! Have had season tickets waiting to use for two years. Can’t wait!

I love them so much❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

6:18 - 6:28 Idina is WICKEDLY flawless... my goodness 🤯

Oh my god the tears, so, so moving

What theater goer wouldn't love this performance! I agree that it was (is) wonderful. I also really loved the complex and beautiful duet with Ben Platt and the amazing Anika Noni Rose doing "Move On" from "Sunday in the Park With George." I can't remember it being sung better. Great show for the Tonys! So much goodness!

I agree. "Give them the film."

I was waiting, hoping you would react to this!

Would love your reaction to Audra and Stokes doing Wheels of a Dream

I struggle to fathom how much meaning this song has for Kristin especially after she sung it during the funeral of John Spencer, who she got so close to during the filming of the two final West Wing seasons back in 2006 and 2007... Along with everything else, that must weigh very heavy on her when singing this in more recent days

My ladies. Seen them both live. Idina twice, and there is nothing like it! Also, my favorite song from Wicked :)

it's okay to cry in times like these

Omg, I cried.

Love their perfomance…

Love your reactions!!! You should watch Idina's performance of "Always starting over" at the 2014 Tonys (please!!!!)

This was also one of my favorite performances from the Tony's, but my favorite duet was Audra McDonald and Brian Stokes Mitchell singing "Wheels of a Dream." And favorite solo: Jennifer HOLLIDAY (edited: I incorrectly wrote Hudson before!) singing "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" - it was INSANE!

I think you have a type. It’s jennifer Holliday, not Hudson. Although Hudson does a great job. This song will always be Miss Hollidays and for very good reason. No one moves a room like she does when she performs the song, that’s why she’s not going and you will love her.

I'm limited Just look at me I'm limited And just look at you You can do all I couldn't do Glinda So now it's up to you For both of us Now it's up to you I've heard it said That people come into our lives For a reason Bringing something we must learn And we are led to those Who help us most to grow if we let them And we help them in return Well, I don't know if I believe that's true But I know I'm who I am today Because I knew you Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes the sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better But because I knew you I have been changed for good It well may be That we will never meet again In this lifetime So, let me say before we part So much of me Is made of what I learned from you You'll be with me Like a handprint on my heart And now whatever way our stories end I know you have rewritten mine By being my friend Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a sky bird In a distant wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better But because I knew you Because I knew you I have been changed for good And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness For the things I've done, you blame me for But then I guess We know there's blame to share And none of it seems to matter anymore Like a comet pulled from orbit (like a ship blown from its mooring) As it passes the sun (by a wind off the sea) Like a stream that meets a boulder (like a seed dropped by a bird) Halfway through the wood (in the wood) Who can say if I've been changed for the better I do believe I have been changed for the better And because I knew you Because I knew you Because I knew you I have been changed For good

Great reaction to a great performance Marc. I've had the chance to see them both do this live together and separately. But this as you called it; this reunion is really a full circle moment and oh, so touching. An aside on Idina. have you by chance ever reacted to her song/performance of Always Starting Over from If/Then? She was nominated for lead actress in a musical for her role in it: Live Tony Awards Performance 2014 ~ kzread.info/dash/bejne/lKGL0tuxksrLdNo.html (Official Video) ~ kzread.info/dash/bejne/YoB11KqemdCWido.html She also did the first US tour with it and I was lucky enough to see her twice in San Francisco perform those dual roles. :)

I would love to see you react to Voiceplay’s wicked medley
