Best Answer

Glinda the Good sings 'Popular' in the musical 'Wicked'. It's after the party where it's clear that no one wishes Elphaba well. But Elphaba just does what she can to have a good time, even if it means dancing by herself.

Glinda's impressed by Elphaba's brave handling of bullying, disdain, ridicule, and shunning. It's the turning point in the interaction between the two young university students. Specifically, after the party, the two room and class mates move from being the worst of enemies to the best of friends.

The change in the interaction is indicated by the song 'Popular'. Glinda sings it while she gives Elphaba a makeover.
