    im finally listening to it rn guys and just omg omg omg the second i got to lin's verse from wrote my way out it was over

    i'm listening to it right now!! at first it threw me because i have this thing if cover versions of musical songs aren't The Exact Same but i'm kinda into it??

    i haven't listened to the whole thing yet so i might be wrong but i kinda wish at least one of the songs was changed just a tiny bit to be queer maybe? even just having a female vocalist singing one of the guy's parts would've been neato

    edit: and literally the next song is regina spektor singing dear theodosia god this album is a gift

    Anyone wanna see a guy do a figure skating routine to You'll Be Back? (You totally do)
    Fair warning: the song is edited for length so if you are like me and wig out when something doesn't go the way it's supposed to, use your judgment.

    Thank you so much for including this warning! I often wig out about that, so while it was still a little jarring, I enjoyed the video WAY more than I would've if I hadn't had any prior notice about the editing :)

    im not sure if this has been mentioned yet because i am way too lazy to read through 13 pages

    but i think that someone's favorite hamilton song says a lot about them and i should probably make a quiz. or we could do a poll.

    That would require me to pick a favorite XD
    (I can pick favorites for individual characters, i.e. Hurricane is my favorite Hamilton-centered song but like an overall favorite would be asking me to choose which child I like best)

    Man I love a lot of the songs... Yorktown, maybe?

    Yorktown is absolutely my favorite from a get-fuckin-pumped perspective!

    Wait For It is probably my favorite. I really really really like Burn and Hurricane and Satisfied too
    Same! I listen to it whenever I can if I gotta do A Stressful Thing and it helps a lot

    I'm also Wait for It trash, which is the only reason why this isn't an impossible question to answer. Other favorites, in order: That Would Be Enough is something I personally feel very deeply, Your Obedient Servant accidentally appeals to me by being everything I like (and is the song that made me listen to Hamilton because I heard the first ~45 seconds, stopped the track, and opened the first song of the musical so I could listen to the whole damn thing because there was no way I was going to listen to a song with burns that good without proper context), and Washington On Your Side pumps me up absurdly, partly because of my Diggs Lust and partly because oh my word, have you listened to it? Those tight harmonies? That flow? Damn. I admire that song.

    Also, I saw Moana last night. The Hamilton cast was in the 'special thanks' section of the credits. Like, the whole cast. I can only assume they were thanked for, despite all reason, actually letting him go.
