Exactly. There's this little thing called "poetic license" which gives a writer a little wiggle room on accuracy to help the story move along and keep 21st century audiences intrigued. Cuz face it, courting in the 1700s was boring

Not to mention actual history books are not “historically accurate”. They’re a rough reconstruction of events based on available artifacts, filtered through the biases and assumptions of the authors. Some of it is accurate, some of it isn’t.

A musical isn't meant to be historically accurate. Yes, there is some historical truth in this musical but some facts are changed for entertainment value.

Find you a person who looks at you the way Marc looks at the cast of Hamilton 😂😍

@@moni23me Not even just the voice, the song itself and her acting and how when a Disney Princess is awestruck (or a male character sometimes) they think they’ve immediately found the one, and the first words she sings is ‘I do, I do, I do’ like she already decided she wants to marry him. It’s a cute song overall matched with Eliza’s innocence. A seasoned ‘I’m in love’ Disney Princess song in my eyes. ✨

You forgot to mention that you also reacted to “It’s Quiet Uptown” and, although she only had one line, she delivered it sooo powerfully and nails the emotion of it. Eliza was pretty much made for her and she does not disappoint. Bonus...I love that she’s representing for us Asian-Americans!

I saw Hamilton a few months ago in Springfield MO. Both Angelica and Lafayette/Jefferson were Asian. They and the entire rest of the cast were flawless. It was one of the best days at the theater in my life. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Saying someone has the voice of an angel is almost cliche, but with Phillipa Soo it's really the only accurate description. Just exquisite.

I’d be absolutely thrilled if a vocal coach finally made a video of Say no to this! My Queen Jazzy Cephas Jones deserves some recognization as well!!!!! 💜💜💜 all of their voices are just 🤤🤤🤤🤤

The most impressive thing (IMO) is how Phillipa is able to rap softly, with her Angel voice. ❤️ Her rapping perfectly demonstrates Eliza being head of heels for Hamilton whilst also showing her tenacity as a Schyler sister.. 👏

Lin Manuel Miranda said on an interview that he makes this gravely voice (is this how you discribe it? I'm not a native speaker 😅) on the end of gus part because it makes Pippa giggle. And I think that's pretty sweet!

I always love her delivery of “look at those eyes “ and “there’s nothing that your mind can’t do.”

Love how you can hear every note individually when she has multiple notes in a single syllable. She doesn’t slide to her notes she is on point and it’s amazing.

I love that the line about Angelica wanting to form a harem was taken directly from a letter she wrote to Eliza. Definitely some sarcasm there but also definitely acknowledging what a charismatic and intoxicating man Hamilton was for the Schuyler sisters.

Loved, loved, loved Phillipa as Eliza! She brought such a quiet strength to the character. Her beat-boxing in "Take a Break" is epic!

Phillipa Soo is a STAR! To think she was shy of 26 in this clip is insane to me. I absolutely love her voice and her vocal techniques are marvelous. THOSE RIFFS!!! Also, because of her I got so obsessed with the real Eliza that after I watched the musical I did SOME research. Betsey was so lovable right away (there are literal letters of people saying that) and poised, which is one thing that drew me into Phillipa’s performance as soon as I saw her. For me, hamilton is all about Eliza

All of the songs she is in has a power to it. All three of the sisters have incredible voices but hers always had a different kind of power to it for me.

While Angelica has a louder bolder voice Eliza had a softer more general voice which really showed the contrast between the two. Angelica was domineering and always wanting more while Eliza seemed to be soft and content.

She plays Eliza with a quiet strength. Her personna and voice suit the role so well.

I saw Jimmy Fallon and The Roots do a toy instruments version, with the original Broadway cast, and it hooked me into checking out Hamilton. It's still one of my favorite songs from the show ❤️

Phillipa is so amazing. Her singing is amazing but also the acting is spot on. I love it so much. It really shows how much she was swept away by Hamilton. Perfection.

This whole cast is incredible of course. Maybe it’s just me, but I feel that phillipa is the only one who sort of became synonymous with her character in my head. I mean, I sometimes accidentally use phillipa Su and Eliza interchangeably. She just gives this character so much life, whether it’s in helpless or in burn. Also, every one of her riffs leave me completely helpless Can you react to that would be enough? It’s the most underrated song in the whole musical in my opinion

When I heard this song for the first time, my exact thoughts were "Okay now I know why they chose her for this role!" She is just so perfect for this song and the role of Eliza! Sure others can sing it well, but I don't think anyone could do it like her.

Oh, if on Hamilton for a while, plz do Jasmine Cephas Say No To This. I love your videos and comments. That peanut butter whiskey sounds amazing

I wanna see you react to what’d I miss. I love Daveed Diggs and his performance as Lafayette and Jefferson and especially that song. I’m always jamming to it while I’m driving 😂 he needs some love!!

Helpless is definitely one of of my top favorites! Pippa does those riffs so well and ngl whenever this plays, I am "helpless" because I feel like I need to hear it more than once lol

Watching this again, I'm also impressed all over again by how well the story of the song is told with the direction and choreography. It could easily get muddied with so much information, the number characters to see to as well the legitimate "swirl of excitement" that also needs to be conveyed. And like you said, it *also* needs to set her up for Act II but *also* needs to plant just a few seeds for Angelica's Satisfied. Terrific direction.

Saw a historian react to Hamilton too, and he said that Eliza was very devoted and did anything for Hamilton even if she didn't always agree with him. And I can see how you're super into all the attention someone gives you at the start of a relationship as well, but apparently Eliza didn't actually like to write, she wasn't as good at it as Hamilton and he wrote looong letter all the time which it seems she got a bit sick of haha

Helpless is my favorite song from the musical.

I just discovered hamilton a few days ago (I am always late to the party) and this is the one song I can not get out of my head, it is permanently stuck lol.

So something I just noticed recently with this number is the flip in Hamilton’s situation. When Hamilton has “nothing” in the first act Peggy confides in him, Angelica ‘tried to take a bite of him’, and Eliza feels helplessly in love with him. In other words he’s gaining the family he lost as a child. In the second act, Hamilton has gained his fortune, fame, and success. Mrs. Reynolds (played by the same actress as Peggy) “confides” in him, resulting in Angelica ‘taking a bite of him’ and Eliza feeling helpless in his betrayal. He’s gained everything and in that lost everything. It’s very clever if intentional

He said breathing is hard with the song and Philipa here running all over the stage as she sings. Yet she sings like and Angel. When I TRY to sing this song I walk down the steps and run out of breath. (Tone deaf to top it all off)

Your passion for musicals is infectious. Great to get your perspective on this one.

Mark, I am beyond excited! After numerous failed attempts, I finally got DisneyPlus…today and will be watching HAMILTON for the very first time. I know I will enjoy it so much more because of all your videos & commentaries. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Yay!

Saw the Philip tour in 2018 and this song was so beautiful. Hadn't heard the soundtrack yet because I need to see the show first, usually. This song became my favorite, bought the soundtrack then heard Pippa Soo's voice and was absolutely blown away at how angelic her voice sounded. Glad to hear you liked it too ☺️

It's so weird and hitting to watch Helpless when you already know the next song so well...! I love how every movement on the stage matches perfectly with Satisfied.

Her voice is beautiful. This is definitely my favorite Hamilton song😍

I see you react to Hamilton, I click! Plus you reacting to YT comments: yay! 🥰Would love to get a reaction from you once there might be a teaser/snippet or even a full song out from the German version which is supposed to premiere in November (fingers crossed 🤞) in Hamburg. Thanks for always making me smile when you react to Hamilton. Love from Germany! ❤

Her voice gives chills. I love her voice so much.

I think this is the song from Hamilton that makes me smile the most, I just love it so much!

Love this song! They did this song on Fallon’s show and she sounds SO AMAZING in that version too! It’s so fun and sunshine-y 🥰

I love her voice so much! It's incredible what she is doing onstage with all the moving. Still wish for her to sing a Disney character ❤️

Oh I'd love it if you reacted to the very last song in Hamilton. That just pulled on so many heartstrings.

This song is my 3rd favourite Hamilton song.

I've listened to Satisfied so many times that at this point I have to listen to it in order to be Satisfied.

This was my first favorite Hamilton song before I ever got to the musical!

The most amazing part for me is the way she matches his moods in the part from “Peggy confides in me” to “And long as I'm alive, Eliza, swear to God You'll never feel so Helpless (I do, I do, I do, I do)” She really reacts so well and so naturally how you would if someone you cared about said of all that to you it’s beautiful

One of the best (but most frustrating) parts about this lovely number is that despite sitting down determined to watch for the doubled bits of action in both Helpless and Satisfied (especially Peggy), I get so caught up in Philippa Soo's performance that I always forget!

I did not realize how early I was

This is probably the most 90s pop hit kinda song in the show. Its like Paula DeAndas song "Remember Me". Honestly the whole show is a nod to 90s hip/hop but that's besides the point. This song is most easily transferred as is to a normal 3min pop song. Not my fav of the entire show but shes precious and with someone who has a lack of melanin like myself she keeps up very well. Yes I'm also aware she's half Chinese

Phillipa Soo "Blew us all away" (pun intended) :P
