Blige, Uzo Aduba, Ne-Yo, and a host of other talented performers, "The Wiz Live!" invites viewers of all ages to ease on down the yellow brick road for a vibrant musical adventure unlike any other.

    The line
    "And just maybe I can convince time to slow up, giving me enough time in my life to grow up. Time be my friend, let me start again"
    Gets me crying everytime.

      I know this is sooooo much later than when you posted this comment, but I have this theory that everyone has their own individual relationship with time and most people haven't discovered it which is why I think people often feel "time just gets away from you". Those that have learned to have a relationship with their time, find ways to "be its friend" and in a sense actually slow it down. I dunno, I'm also stoned 🤣. I mean, perception IS reality after all.

    When I think of Home
    I think of place
    Where there's love overflowing
    I wish I was home
    I wish I was back there
    With the thing i've been knowing
    Wind that makes the tall glass
    Bend into leaning
    Suddenly, the raindrops that fall
    Have a meaning
    Sprinklin the scene
    Makes it all clean
    Maybe there's a chance
    For me to go back
    Now that I have some direction
    It sure would be nice
    To be back home
    Where there's love and affection
    And just maybe I
    Can convince time to slow up
    Giving me enough time
    In my life to grow up
    Time, be my friend, let me start again
    Suddenly, my world's gone
    And changed It's face
    But I still know where I'm going
    I have had my mind spun around in space And yet, I've watched it growing
    And if you're listening god, please, Don't make it hard
    To know if we should believe the things That we see
    Tell us, should we try to stay
    Should we run away, or would it be Better just to let things be?
    Living here in this brand new world
    Might be a fantasy
    But its taught me to love
    So it real, real, real to me
    And I've learned
    That we must look inside our hearts
    To find
    A world full of love
    Like yours, Like mine
    Like Home

    She came into this with such big shoes to fill. After all, Stephanie Mills iconic performance of Home is, for many of us, the pre-eminent rendition. Later attempts have been met with a skepticism at best and contempt at worse (yes, I'm looking at you Diana Ross) Shaniece Williams did not disappoint. In fact, she created her own, craveable iconic version. I've listened to the stephanie original a million times. It may be the novelty of having a Fresh version on par with that, but i find myself choosing to this rendition now when I wanna hear Home. That is so very real to me.

    She sounds beautiful and this is not a easy song to sing, trust me i tried doing karaoke night lol but after hearing Diana Ross and Whitney Houlton she sounded ok, but none of them three can compare to the Queen of this song Stephanie Mills

      I mean Diana Ross isn’t even in the same category as the other 3. She’s the reason the movie flopped.

    Genuinely asking, anyone know why they changed "snowflakes" to "rain drops"?. Glee did this too, is it the broadway version?

      The movie changed the line from rain drops to snowflakes because of the setting change. The Wiz (original) is still set in Kansas so "Rain drops" is the original line. "Snowflakes" was there to make up for the New York setting for Dorothy. In the movie they changed "tall grass" to "tall trees" as well,
