[Glinda] Você não consegue se controlar Pelo menos uma vez na vida? Tinha que perder as estribeiras? Eu só espero Que esteja bem feliz Meteu o seu nariz Bem onde não devia Mas quanta teimosia [Elphaba] Eu só espero Que possa se orgulhar Que possa suportar Ser sempre submissa E tudo por cobiça [Glinda] É essa a sua decisão? [Elphaba] Eu só espero [Glinda e Elphaba] Que não [Madame Morrible] Cidadãos de Oz, temos uma inimiga que deve ser capturada Não acreditem em nada do que ela diz Ela é a responsável pela mutilação Destes pobres macacos [Glinda] Ah não! [Madame Morrible] A sua pele é verde pela sua natureza torpe Essa distorção, essa aversão, essa bruxa má! [Glinda] Não fica com medo [Elphaba] Eu não tô É o mágico que deve ter medo De mim! [Glinda] Elphie me escuta É só pedir desculpa antes que seja tarde Não desista do seu sonho Você fez por merecer E se quiser ainda é tempo [Elphaba] Eu sei Mas eu não quero Não! Eu não posso mais querer Sinto algo novo em mim Nada será igual Não vou me sujeitar À regras que me fazem mal Remover anúncios É tarde pra ter medo É hora de despertar O meu instinto chama E me faz tentar Desafiar a gravidade Tentar domar a gravidade Não vão me alcançar [Glinda] Não percebe o que fez A sua ilusão de grandeza? [Elphaba] Não quero mais limites Cansei de obedecer Não sei no que vai dar Mas hoje eu vou pagar pra ver Quis tanto ser aceita Foi tão caro esse amor Se isso é amor Não pago mais o seu valor Vou superar a gravidade Desafiar a gravidade Não vão me alcançar [Soldado] Abram esta porta! Em nome de Sua Ozidade se renda! [Glinda] O que você tá fazendo? Para! Foi assim que tudo isso começou Com esse maldito feitiço de levitação Para, para! E aí? Onde estão suas asas? Talvez você não seja tão poderosa quanto pensa ser Pelo amor de Oz! [Elphaba] Eu te falei Glinda, não falei? [Soldado] Derrubem, peguem o arrombador de portas! [Elphaba] Rápido, sobe! [Glinda] O quê? [Elphaba] Vem comigo Pensa no que podemos fazer, juntas [Elphaba] Na imensidão Você e eu Na imensidão Eu vejo o destino que podemos construir, Glinda Nossa parceria [Glinda] Sempre em sintonia [Glinda e Elphaba] Juntas vamos conseguir Desafiar a gravidade Ultrapassar a gravidade [Elphaba] Não vão nos alcançar E aí? Você vem? [Glinda] Elphie, você tá tremendo! Aqui, veste isso [Glinda] Eu só espero que seja bem feliz [Elphaba] Eu também! Busque o que sempre quis [Glinda e Elphaba] Que a vida surpreenda E que nunca se arrependa Eu só espero que no fim Você se lembre de mim [Soldados] Lá está ela! Não deixe que ela escape [Glinda] Me larga, tá ouvindo? Me solta! [Elphaba] Não é ela Ela não tem nada a ver com isso Sou eu quem vocês querem Sou eu [Glinda] Elphie! [Elphaba] Sou eu! Olhem pro céu no oeste Lá vão me encontrar Pois como alguém me disse Todos têm direito de voar Eu posso estar sozinha Mas hoje o céu é meu Quem duvidava veja Agora quem venceu Já sei voar sobre a gravidade Desafiar a gravidade E todos vão me respeitar E ouçam bem a minha voz O mágico e toda Oz Agora vão me ver voar [Glinda] Eu só espero [Ozianos] Olha lá a bruxa, bruxa! [Elphaba] Vou voar! [Ozianos] Sem perdão à bruxa Prendam essa bruxa [Elphaba] Oooh [Ozianos] Má!

GLINDA: Elphaba, ¿por qué no pudiste quedarte quieta por un segundo en lugar de perder los estribos? Que tengas suerte Y que te vaya bien. Las dos sabemos quien va rumbo a la deriva Porque que se cree muy viva. ELPHABA: Que tengas suerte Y que te vaya bien. Que seas feliz también Con ambiciones viles, Vanas y serviles. AMBAS: Y aunque bien, bien no te irá. Que tengas suerte Y ya… SRTA. MÓRRIDA: Pueblo de Oz, tenemos una enemiga que debemos encontrar y capturar. No crean nada de lo que les diga, ella es perversa. Fue la causante de la mutilación de estos inocentes changuitos. Su piel verde es claro manifestatum de su torcida naturaleza… de esta retorcida, de esta repulsiva bruja malvada. GLINDA: No tengas miedo, Elfis. ELPHABA: No, yo no. Es el mago quien debe tener miedo... de mí. GLINDA: Elfis, hazme caso. Solo pide perdón antes de que sea muy tarde. Haz del mago un aliado. Hazlo o tú perderás Lo que quieres y has soñado. ELPHABA: Lo sé, Y ya no quiero. ¡No! Ya no puedo quererlo más. Hoy ya no soy la misma. Hoy algo no es igual. Ya basta de que digan Lo que hago bien o mal. Lo hecho es pasado Y no vuelvo a comenzar, Hoy sigo mis instintos… Tengo que volar. Iré en contra de la gravedad. Lo haré en contra de la gravedad. ¡Y no me bajas ya! GLINDA: Vas a perder la cabeza Con tu actitud de grandeza. ELPHABA: No acepto las barreras Que dicen no podrás. Si no las salto yo, Jamás sabré si soy capaz. Creí que era malo Fracasar en el amor. Si fracasé, Perder el alma es peor. Me voy en contra de la gravedad. Lo haré en contra de la gravedad. ¡Y no me bajas ya! GUARDIA: ¡Abran la puerta en nombre de su Altísima Oznipotencia! ELPHABA: Ah-ben tah-kay, ah-ben tah-kay, en-tay-ah tin-fen-tah. Ah-ben tah-kay et an-tay day-tum en-tay ah tah-kay bay ah ben. GLINDA: ¿Qué haces? Deja eso. Eso fue lo que empezó todo este lío, esos espantosos conjuros para levitar. ¡Ya! ¿Qué pasó? ¿Dónde están tus alas? Tal vez no eres tan poderosa como crees. ¡Santo Oz! ELPHABA: ¡Te lo dije Glinda! ¿Ves que te lo dije? GUARDIA: Derriben la puerta. Preparen la catapulta. ELPHABA: Ven, trépate. ELPHABA: ¡¿Qué?! ELPHABA: Ven conmigo, imagina lo que podemos hacer… unidas. Sin límite, Unidas y sin límite. Y dime quién le podrá ganar a este par, Glinda. Sueños que planeamos… GLINDA: Todo en nuestras manos. AMBAS: Nada nos podrá fallar. Son dos en contra de la gravedad. Con dos en contra de la gravedad. ELPHABA: Ni quién nos baje ya. ¿Qué paso? ¿Vienes? GLINDA: Elfis, estás temblando. Toma, ponte esto. Que tengas suerte con esta decisión. ELPHABA: Tú también. Vas con mi bendición. AMBAS: Que logres lo que intentas Y que nunca te arrepientas. Que haya suerte para ti Y no te olvides de mí. GUARDIA: ¡Ahí está! ¡Que no escape! GLINDA: Suéltenme! ¡¿Qué no oyen?! ¡Que me dejen! ELPHABA: ¡Suéltenla! Ella no tiene nada que ver en esto. Soy yo a quien ustedes buscan, ¡yo! ¡Soy yo! Voy hacia el horizonte Donde se pierde el mar. Un mago me predijo: "Llegará tu hora volar". Si vuelo solitaria, Lo hago en libertad. Y a los que duden, Que les cuenten la verdad. Que me elevo en contra de la gravedad. Y digo hoy no hay ley de gravedad. ¡Y ninguno me bajará! Y nadie aquí, en todo Oz, Ni mago ni hechizo atroz ¡Haría que me bajen ya! GLINDA: Que tengas suerte. OZESNOS: Ella es malvada. ¡Fuera! ELPHABA: ¡Bajen ya! OZESNOS: Fuera los malvados. ¡Así que la bajen ya!
juro que cuando vi esta obra, me cautivo hasta las lagrima y mas esta escena ... verla y viajar solo a CDMX fue algo increible a mis 24 años verla fue impacto enorme y cuando me siento impotente y frustado siempre la escucho y me abre nuevas ideas y no me dejo caer...
Could you upload the instrumentaal version with french horns and idk how you say that but when Jackie Burns joined the 2nd National tour the orchestra did something at the bring me down kind of tap with the drum!
Something has changed within me... Something is not the same... I'm through with playing by the rules Of someone else's game... Too late for second-guessing, Too late to go back to sleep! It's time to trust my instincts, Close my eyes... ...And leap! It's time to try defying gravity... I think I'll try defying gravity, And you won't bring me down... I'm through accepting limits 'Cause someone says they're so! Some things I cannot change, But 'til I try, I'll never know! Too long I've been afraid of Losing love I guess I've lost! Well, if that's love It comes at much too high a cost! I'd sooner buy defying gravity... Kiss me goodbye! I'm defying gravity, And you can't pull me down... Unlimited... My future is unlimited! And I've just had a vision, Almost like a prophecy! I know, it sounds truly crazy, And it's true, the vision's hazy, But I swear, someday I will be... Up in the sky, defying gravity! Flying so high defying gravity! And you'll never bring me down... So if you care to find me, Look to the western sky! As someone told me lately, "Everyone deserves the chance to fly!!" And if I'm flying solo, At least I'm flying free! To those who'd ground me, Take a message back from me... Tell them how I am defying gravity! I'm flying high, defying gravity!! And soon I'll match them in reknown! And nobody! In all of Oz! No wizard that there is or was Is ever gonna bring... Me down!! Bring me down! Ah Aaaaah!!!
What's crazy about this is that no one is ever happy with the speed. I've seen Americans complaining that the West End takes it too fast and us UK residents complaining that Broadway is too fast. I honestly think it depends on which vocalist they've seen perform it online, a lot of Defying Gravity is dependant on the performer singing it and their capabilities. Alice Fearn did it roughly this speed on her West End run, Kerry Ellis and Rachel Tucker did it a little slower, but Rachel's Broadway take was quicker.
It's weird bc I think it's too fast in some parts and too slow in some. Ex/It's a slower pause before she says "and leap" and faster during "dreams the way we planned them..." The tempo changes so much it's hard to keep up.
Wizard: Guards, guards! There is a fugitive loose in the palace! Find her, capture her, and bring her to me! Guards: Yes your Ozness! [Scene 17 - Defying Gravity] Glinda: Elphie, wait!

Lyrics & Dialogue : -The Wizard's Chamber Morrible: Won't they make perfect spies? Elphaba: Spies?! Wizard: You're right, that's a harsh word... how about scouts? That's what they'll be really. They'll fly around Oz! Report any subversive Animal activity. Elphaba: So, it's you? You're behind it all? Wizard: Elphaba, when I first got here, there was discord and discontent. And where I come from, everyone knows the best way to get folks together, is to give them a real good enemy. Elphaba: You can't read this book at all! Can you? That's why you need enemies, and cages, and spies. You have no real power. Wizard: Exactly... that's why I need you. Don't you see? The world is your oyster, now! You have so many...opportunites. You both do. Glinda: Thank you, your Ozness. Wizard: SINCE ONCE I HAD MY OWN DAY IN THE SKY I KNOW EVERYONE DESERVES THE CHANCE TO... Elphaba: NO! Morrible: Elphaba! Glinda: Elphie! I am so sorry, your Wizardship. I'll fetch her back! Elphie wait! Wizard: We must get her back. She knows too much. Morrible: Don't worry! I will handle it. Wizard: Guards, guards! There is a fugitive loose in the palace! Find her, capture her, and bring her to me! Guards: Yes your Ozness! -Defying Gravity Glinda: Elphie, wait! Where are you going? Elphaba: Oh no!
