Wicked Popular

Katie, via Betsy, has developed a huge appetite for the music from Wicked. Her favorite song is "Popular", which Kristin Chenoweth immortalized on Broadway (the New York Times critic called it a "master class in phrasing" - seriously, look at it on youtube...anyway...)

During a particularly grumpy pre-bedtime discussion, Zach let me know how much of an impact that song has had on him.

Zach: The kids are gonna make fun of me.

Betsy: The kids are not going to make fun of you. The kids never make fun of you. Mrs. Goner says you're very popular.

Zach: All that does is remind me of the baddest song I've ever heard in my life.
