After leaving the Ozdust Ballroom, Elphaba and Glinda stay up all night together, getting closer.
While this may seem like a surface-level gesture, this means everything to Glinda.
Elphaba may act like she is above this, but as Glinda notices, this is just an act.
“Popular,” for the most part, stays true to the play’s version of the song.
However, there is a bit more spectacle thanks to movie magic.
“There’s a longer introduction, which works well for the film adaptation.

This introduction is not the most drastic change made to “One Short Day,” however.
That accomplishment belongs toWizomania.
It’s about how he does not need the glitz and glam.
Wicked adapts the Broadway musical into a two-part film, following the unlikely friendship between Elphaba, born with green skin, and Glinda, a popular aristocrat, in the Land of Oz. As they navigate their contrasting paths, they evolve into Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
However,his actions, as well as all the smoke and mirrors, say otherwise.
On-stage, the song is sung with few interruptions.
Along with that, the spectacle is when Elphaba hits her power ballad while rising into the air.
On-screen, however,there is a lot more action to be seen as the guards pursue Elphaba.
During that first number, she fantasizes about working alongside the Wizard of Oz.
She even has a vision, where she believes her future is unlimited.
This is the big finish, and it’s a note that anyWickedfan is excited for.
