Ooh yeah, "Satisfied" hits everybody like a freight train of talent and heartbreak the first time you hear it. Incredible song, and one of the most flawless musical theater performances of all time. :)

Aaron Burr is actually a pretty good person to study about in American History. He always stood away from things that would even cause the smallest issue, while Hamilton ran after those things as if his legacy would depend on it. Aaron Burr constantly stayed out of a lot of what the constitution was building on and a lot of people don’t know that he is one of our founding fathers because he didn’t really do a lot of the big things (compared to the others, I mean.) Hamilton on the other hand did things that would get his name out there so he wouldn’t just be a ‘bastard, orphan, son of a whore’ in America. The reason he wrote so much was because he wanted his name to be in history, knowing the only way we can figure out he existed is through artifacts of writing. Hamilton did drag his wife and kids around a lot (which, yes, they had 7 kids by the time he died so kids..Mhm) but he sent them to their summer home quite often. In the second act, you find out why. Act two of Hamilton is when you get into the more political thing of American History and how Hamilton (and others around him) got their legacy. Be aware that the timeline is a little different than what actually happened and I can talk about that for ages. I studied American History for so long because of this musical and my knowledge about it will always be useful. I love Hamilton because it gives you a modern insight of what it was like back then. Every aspect of this musical can make you understand why it took Lin Manuel nearly 6 years to write it. It’s truly beautiful and one of the best works of modern musicals today :)

Reminds me more of South Park's Eric Cartman

Satisfied's choreography is helpless backwards and then forwards. Its to show the flashback angelica is experiencing but also shows how she takes the letters from elisa, like she wanted to do and take hamilton for herself. It then goes to the same choreography from the other songs until it goes back to helpless. It shows so much heartbreak tbch and I love it so much. There is so much thought in the choreo, movement and the use of the turning stage.. And I could gush for hours about the musical motifs of the characters and how they fit in the songs

The studio recording is exactly that; recorded in a studio. They could redo every part until it was perfect, and no one had to dance while singing. The movie is recordings of 3 live performances, so there are slight inconsistencies.

Yes

Part of what makes Hamilton so wonderful is the attention to detail. There are layers upon layers upon layers of historical and musical references. Not sure if anyone else mentioned this in the comments, but Lin uses different genres (and decades) of music to represent the personalities and political beliefs of different characters. For example, Hamilton and his friends are young and progressive, so their songs are mostly rap/hip hop. (And each has their own flow, paying homage to different 90s artists.) Because Burr is a little outside of the group, he's more R&B. (Wait for it is meant to sound like it could be an Usher song, and Usher actually covers it on The MixTape.) The Schuyler sisters are meant to sound like Destiny's Child. Since he's older (and the General and 1st Pres), Washington's songs are a mix of speaking/rapping, R&B, and Gospel. King George's song is supposed to sound like "British Invasion" Pop from the 60s. (e.g. Beatles) Since the political views of the Loyalist reading the proclamation (Samuel Seabury) are conservative and "out dated," his song sounds classical - complete with harpsichord!

Random thoughts: -IDK if you've seen Frozen, but Jonathan Groff (King George) is the voice of Kristoff in the movie Frozen. -Part of the reason for the specificly colored costumes is the colorblind casting. Any company in the world can cast any main character as any ethnicity, and you'll be able to find them on stage thanks to their costume design. -The original version of the Schyler Sister's song didn't have so many harmonies and runs; Lin added the badass vocals when he heard what the actresses could do

The pitch shifting makes this sound like hamilton sung by the worlds most talented children

*"Being a fan of Leslie Odom Jr. and Renée Elise Goldsberry for 22 minutes and 34 seconds" there! fixed the title for you Mathew :)

According to one of the cast members (I don't remember who specifically) the actress who plays Angelica didn't flub a line in Satisfied(and i think all of her other songs) once in the whole time they performed to show she always got the notes and words right

In fact, they only Tony Awards it *didn't* win in the fourteen categories for musicals were Best Lead Actress, Best Set Design (which is was nominated for despite having a minimalist design), and Best Revival (for which it isn't eligible but will surely win in about fifty years). They had three nominations for supporting/featured actor including Jonathan Groff (George III) who has about five minutes of stage time.

If you are wondering why Hamilton didn't appreciate Washington calling him "son". It is because his father left him when he was very young. So having another man call him "son" is kindof triggering for him.

@jcompton8507

2 жыл бұрын

I think it's more that Hamilton feels like he's being coddled. He's roughly 20 at the time that this song would be taking place, so it's meant to feel like a "son" who thinks his "father" still sees him as a boy and not a man. And Washington, who never had children of his own (probably due to complications from small pox), really _did_ see Hamilton (and Lafayette) as the sons he couldn't have.

Once you’re done you should definitely listen to some of the cut songs/workshop versions. They’re some of my favorites! Congrats - amazing song by angelica, before burn Let it go- shows Eliza’s impact on Hamilton, plus some eliza x Washington singing which is amazing. Pair that song with the workshop version of Schuyler defeated (SD then let it go) And you see just how angry Hamilton was Workshop ver. Adams Administration - yep. Salty Hamilton. Worship ver. hurricane - some real good lines in that one. Not much is different but man Dear Theodosia reprise - sad burr That other version of your obedient servant. Man.

I honestly wish John Laurens had been the pov character since he actually stood for freeing the slaves unlike Hamilton who only did it in words

There's SO much going on in this Musical and it's amazing, from the vocals and instrumentals to the choreography. Satisfied is one of the coolest scenes purely due to the fact that it "rewinds" and replays and pauses the scenes from Helpless as she sings it. I also adore the king, who's portraying King George the Third, who is suspected to have had Manic tendencies in his later years and possibly had Bipolar disorder and possibly had bad effects from Arsenic poisoning. He was royally pissed off at the Revolution when it was happening but he did ultimately accept the loss and recognize the new country.

As a law student that had to read some of those essays, I laugh when Burr says “no one will read them”.

Pretty sure they started with "low key" songs for the opening so that people in the audience who aren't used to rap/hip hop can get used to following the songs before they get to My Shot.

“Satisfied” is my favourite song in the whole musical, closely followed by “Dear Theodosia”. Just wait for “It’s quiet uptown”. It make me cry every time!

You know Hamilton is good when you still get goosebumps with this distortion-

I appreciate the near-immediate simping for Leslie Odom Jr.'s vocals. Can relate.

When even the chipmunk version of Satisfied is THAT good

oh my shoes, mathew, you have no idea how long i've been waiting for this notif

I was lucky enough to see this show live. "Satisfied" really felt like the turning point of the show. It was entertaining and exciting until that point but "Satisfied" is where I realized what an emotional impact the show would make and started taking it seriously.

the tentation of going on Patreon to see the full thing but.... must...... resist......... also smth so funny about you going "i love this guy's voice" when to us it's just chipmunk number 3 lmaoo but yeah leslie is a gift to this world he's one of my favorites in the cast, if not my number 1. his line delivery is simply perfect. jonathan groff has gotta be my number two. i laughed so hard at you saying you were uncomfortable bc what he does is he keeps choosing random audience members and he likes stares at them unblinkingly for a few seconds before going to the next one to get that uncomfortable feeling even we, the digital audience, can get. imagine being there tho and have him sing while staring at you. also "i thought he was gonna die" "someone's gonna die" "oh i thought someone was gonna die" made me :( strongly. i thought i was already over it but then you left a large part of the scene in and i was gone.

Hearing "CALL ME SON ONE MORE TIME" distorted sent me

So ready for part 2!

IM SORRY I KNOW ITS PITCHED UP BUT THEY ALL SOUND LIKE THEY INHALED HELIUM AND I COULDNT STOP LAUGHING

After a while the pitched audio didn't bother me so much so I am sooo happy you reacted to this. It's really something

You: “It sounds a lot different than the studio version” Me, listening to the distorted audio: omg you’re right- that’s crazyyyy (Sorry, I had to make that joke- I get your reasoning, copyright is annoying)

Even if I have to hear the chipmunk voices, it's worth it to get another Ham reaction to watch:) Please post yourself watching Act II asap! I have my notifications turned on.

I love the portrayal of the King it's so freaking good and when I watched this movie for the first time I freaked out when I recognized the actor who played the king as Jessie st james from glee and the voice of christoff from frozen and frozen 2 Wait for it is one of my favorite songs from this musical!

I love how every Hamilton reaction videos say "Oh sht he's back" when King George shows up

I remember being so excited about every cutaway that they brought him back on for because his songs were just the perfect mix of funny and genuinely really good.

Would it be weird to ask for you to react to 3 song that got cut from the musical?...Anyway! 'Congradulations' is an Angelica song that 'Burn' took over Speeking of 'Burn' the original, 'First Burn' is a great listen, too and finally 'Ten Things One Thing' it has extra lines for 'The World Was Wide Enough' ....and maybe "Dear Theodosia Reprise' because of personal reasons.

love your videos and your music knowledge in your videos.

Rewind and Wait For It are definitely some of my favourite songs in the entire show. Yorktown too. And The Room Where It Happens. Dear Theodosia too.

Who knew, Chipmunk Hamilton’s pretty iconic!
