Aimee, is that your favorite also?
Not Aimée, but hey! I'll take advantage of one of my rare moments on the computer to answer, too! I think that "Defying Gravity" will always be my favorite song from Wicked.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I flounce between "Loathing", "I'm Not That Girl", "Popular", and of course, "Defying Gravity".
It really depends on my mood.
For about the past month or so "I'm Not That Girl" has felt like my theme song.

I'm right there with you, Jilli. "Defying Gravity" gave me chills the first time I listened to it and every third time or so, it still does. Favoritest song ever.
The line in "Thank Goodness" that hits me is "Happy is what happens when all your dreams come true. Well, isn't it?" Ooof.

I have tickets for it at the Kennedy Center in January. So. Excited.
I have to go to work now. It is pouring rain. the closer it gets to time to leave, the worse the rain is getting.
blech. I hate when I have to ignore the obvious signs from above.
Wicked sold out in SF before I had a chance to get tix. I could have seen it when I was in NYC, but my buddies bullied me into a couple of other musicals instead. Me, bitter (typed butter first), nawwww.

It's (finally!) playing in Seattle in September. When I explained to Pete that I was planning on seeing it at least twice, he looked at me and said "I kind of expected that."
The big coffee-table book about the musical has a whole section on how they do Elphaba's makeup, and what products they use. Products that I can get through friends. Why yes, I am returning to my childhood roots for Halloween 2006, and dressing up as the Wicked Witch of the West. My best friend, because she is very indulgent, has agreed to dress as Galinda. (I suspect part of the reason she agreed is because that way she can con her husband into being a flying monkey.)
