Wicked

Breathtaking. I could hardly breath while listening to this song. It tells of a deep and precious friendship between Elphaba and Glinda, before those two had become the Wicked witch of the West and Glinda the Good.

It's heartbreaking, because the friendship portrayed is so beautiful,and it shaped both girls, each of whome learned much from teh other.

And yet, from the start, we know how this will end.

I saw the Wicked with my So when we visited London some years ago, and had forgotten how utterly beautiful are some of those songs.
