Song of the Day: Wicked: For Good (“No Place Like Home”), composed by Stephen Schwartz, is one of two songs new to the 2025 follow-up to the 2024 expanded cinematic adaptation of the wonderful Broadway musical. The song asks us to fight for one’s home as a “promise” and an “idea”, even when one’s home has been corrupted. Sound familiar? The wonderful Cynthia Erivo delivers this lyrical song with poignancy [YouTube link].
