I'm literally balling right now the harmonies are just to beautiful #theaterkidproblems

0:26 is when the song starts for those of us learning it ❤️

this is absolutely beautiful. my choir is learning the choral version of this song, and it’s definitely hard, but beautiful. good work!

The unison in the last part was breathtaking ♥️

The other lyrics are wrong! I made some corrections. Hopefully this is helpful. MEGAN MCGINNIS: Let me run through a field in the night Let me lift from the ground till my soul is in flight SUTTON FOSTER: Let me sway like the shade of a tree Let me swirl like a cloud in a storm on the sea Wish me on my way MEGAN MCGINNIS: Through the dawning day BOTH: I Wanna flow, wanna rise, wanna spill Wanna grow in a grove On the side of a hill MEGAN MCGINNIS: I don't care if the train runs late If the checks don't clear If the house blows down SUTTON FOSTER: I'll be off where the weeds run wild Where the seeds fall far from this Earthbound town BOTH: And I'll start to soar! Watch me rain till I pour I'll catch a ship and it'll sail me astray Get caught in a wind, I'll just have to obey Time flying away! Ah Ah Ah Ah SUTTON FOSTER: Let me leave behind MEGAN MCGINNIS: All the clouds in my mind BOTH: I Wanna wake without wondering why Finding myself in a burst for the sky! Ah! I'll just roll! SUTTON FOSTER: Let me lose all control MEGAN MCGINNIS: I Wanna float like a wish in a well Free as the sound of the sea in a shell BOTH: I don't know But maybe I'm just a fool MEGAN MCGINNIS: I should keep to the ground BOTH: I should stay where I'm at Maybe everyone has hunger like this And the hunger will pass But I can't think like that SUTTON FOSTER: All I know is somewhere through a clearing MEGAN MCGINNIS: (Somewhere there's sunlight) SUTTON FOSTER: There's a flickering of sunlight on a river long and wide BOTH: And I have such a river inside! Let me run through a field in the night! Let me lift from the ground till my soul is in flight! Let me sway like the shade of a tree! Let me swirl like a cloud in a storm on the sea! SUTTON FOSTER: Wish me on my way MEGAN MCGINNIS: Wish me on my way SUTTON FOSTER: Through the dawning day BOTH: I Wanna flow, wanna rise, wanna spill SUTTON FOSTER: Wanna grow on the side of a hill MEGAN MCGINNIS: Wanna shift like a wave rolling on BOTH: Wanna drift from the path I've been traveling upon Before I am gone

This is so beautiful. I love the words, I love the harmonies. The whole song is perfect but I especially love 2:42 through 3:09... powerful.

They are SO incredible that it sounds exactly like the recording. Exceptional.

Everytime i hear this song i think of me and my best friend and how far away we are from each other and how we wish we could just fly to each other like a cloud...

I’ve cried to this so many times. But it also uplifts me in a way that I can’t explain.

Heard someone sing this and was in love. Hearing Sutton did it...she's my idol through and through

A fantastic performance of just one of Craig's wonderful songs.

America you are so lucky to have Sutton!! I'm so jealous of anyone who has seen her live and I deeply envy all of you who have met her. Such a stunning song, I love it

I love Sutton Foster so much she is my idol.

Their voices together sound so fantastic together!!!!! I wish i could sound lke a least one of them.

oh gosh is this amazing. is it even possible to go up from here? singing this song is like and ultimate achievement. Sutton Foster is supreme!

I can't breathe, this is GORGEOUS!

Stunning arrangement.

I cry every single time I watch this video. And I watch it A LOT.

To clear a few thing up that have been swirling in the comments: (1) Flight is not from a larger body of work, i.e. a musical, song cycle, etc. (2) It was originally written for a male voice (his own - and no one sings it like he does) (3) the arrangement for two voices is an arrangement that Sutton Foster's musical director did for her and it is not published.

This is truly amazing. it made me cry because it is so beautiful, and that does not happen often.... amazing job!

I have heard so many versions of this song, and this is by far the best! You two are just fantastic!

Beautiful! I love when Sutton points at Megan at the end.

Some of these comments are quite amusing. I had the distinct honor of studying with Craig Carnelia for 2 years and he changed my life as a performer. The song featured here, "Flight", is most certainly one of his greatest compositions and I had his blessing to sing it in my first solo show in New York City.

just amazing

this is SO amazing. my whole theatre department at school is in love with this song. but none of us know what its from!

Megan just looks absolutely beautiful here!

Let me run through a field in the night Let me lift from the ground til my soul is in flight. Let me sway like the shade of a tree Let me swirl like a cloud in a storm on the sea. Wish me on my way Through the dawning day I, Wanna flow, wanna rise, wanna spill Wanna grow, wanna grow On the side of a hill. I don't care if the train runs late If the checks won't clear If the house blows down. I'll be off where the weeds run wild Where the seeds fall far from this Earthbound town. And I'll start to soar! Watch me rain til I pour out! I'll catch a ship and it'll sail me astray Get caught in a wind and I'll just have to obbey time Time flying away! Flight! Ah Ah Ah Let me leave behind All the clouds in my mind I Wanna wake without wondering why Finding myself for a burst for the sky! Flight! Flight! I'll just roll! Let me lose all control I Wanna float like a wish in a well Free as the sound of the sea in a shell I don't know But maybe I'm just a fool I should keep to the ground I should stay where I'm at Maybe everyone has hunger like this And the hunger will pass But I can't think like that All I know is that somewhere in a clearing (somewhere) There's a grain of sunlight on a river long and wide And I have such a river inside! Let me run through a field in the night! Let me lift from the ground til my soul is in flight! Let me sway like the shade of a tree! Let me swirl like a cloud in a storm on the sea! Wish me on my way! (wish me on my way) Through the dawning day I Wanna flow, wanna rise, wanna spill Wanna grow on the side of a hill Wanna shift like a wave going on Wanna drift from the path I've been traveling upon Before I am gone.

Amazing.

Just simply outstanding. Love this song. LOVE the performers and the performance. Truly magical.

Thank you!!

You can find the songbook "The Songs of Craig Carnelia" for sale at sheetmusicplus-dot-com. The original version of "Flight " is included (in his key of course) .

Thank you a million times for posting these videos. It is so nice to be able to see this- living so far from the city can truly be the pits sometimes...

this is such a gorgeous, gorgeous piece.

Amazing

Everytime i'm listening to this, i'm crying :(

Sounds just like the recorded version!

息ぴったり！！本当に素晴らしい！❤️

@Gracebertram It is on Musicnotes, gonna have to transpose it down 6 halfsteps for it to be in the same key as the video

my two bestest friends are singing that and im going to dance to it for the talent show this year :D

esto es sublime................... :0)

Same here! I'm looking into singing this for a recital. If I don't hear back I'll just have to transpose it myself.

Ok... 3:10... just saying...

this is a real soprano, take note choir girlsssss

Oh... My... God...

crying

yeah of course ;)

@megshipp i don't think it's published yet. this arrangement was only written in '09 and the only way i got it was through people in "the biz". But yeh as far as i know it's not yet published, sorry!

You know, I actually think in this version they're a lot better than the others....

Noteflight. Get a free account. Browse. Look up Sutton Foster. it's there

BEAUTIFUL. does anyone know where the sheet music and lyrics can be found?

0:26

does anyone know where i can get this piano music?!!!!!

does anyone know where to get this sheet music or the solo version transposed? i can only find the craig carnelia book.

what key do they sing it in?? how many steps on musicnotes do i have to transpose it to be in the same key they're singing it in?

does anyone know where i can get sheet music to this?

Is there any way I could possibly have/purchase this arrangement of Flight from Mr. Rafter? My daughter is dying to do this duet.

it's not from anything. Craig Carnilia just wrote it and published it. kind of like girl in 14g

Have you the sheet with the two voices? Cause i was searching it for months too, please, tell me where you found it *__* Thanks(L)

do you still have the music? :) xx

Would you mind very much if i said i do? :) i'm thinking of doing this with a friend, but can't find the sheet. :)

i am very interested. please let me know.

very interested. how do we get in touch

Hi, I'm just a french singer and I will be interested by you sheet music (excuse-me for my english!!)..thanks a lot

I have the sheet, If you still need it :)

It was already around but the arrangement was done for Sutton and Megan I believe - don't quote me on that though I may be wrong. Suttons part is harder because it goes lower and has the melody less frequently

I would really like it too pretty please, if that's ok?

sutton foster just might be the best singer ever

man this arrangement ruins the original song for me its so good

Could I possibly have the music too?

We loved this song so much we made our own version, with a music video! (just for fun) What do you think..? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ptadn696lZnbnHk.html
