    Shes the only person I have ever heard sing the climax of this song (Bring me downnn!!) with as much support, resonance, no strain or pitchyness.

      Watching this 8 months later lol I definitely think she doesn't have the range either, she sounded like she struggled with the higher notes in this song, and I'm not talking about the chorus I'm talking about after modulation. I agree she's more of a Glinda, but I still see what I saw before, but personality and vocally COMPLETELY agree with you.

    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!!!

      No it isn't!!! It is smack dab in the middle of her range, as she shows here! The reason she hasn't been Elphaba, is because Sutton Foster does not do second casts at this point in her career. She is not a replacement person, she is a star who STARTS with the lead, not to take it over from someone else.

      It's definitely not too high for her; she was being silly and as a result didn't enter her belt properly. The upper resonance of her voice is much too clear and powerful for this to be "too high."
