After years of just being that guy on the ten-dollar bill, Alexander Hamiton has sprung into the public's consciousness because of the work of Lin-Manuel Miranda. Hamilton has struck a chord with so many people, and this video attempts to look at how it is a musical for anyone.
Aight, few things. First, this video was originally made for a collaborative channel that me and my friend Jesse were working on. After realizing that we don't have enough time to even properly run our own channels, we decided to scrap it, but we still had a few videos made. This is one of those videos. I did the writing and voiceover, and Jesse did the editing. So, you should check him out because he is a smart human and a fantastic editor. If you like what I am doing over here, you will almost certainly like what he does on his channel more.
Also, the subject matter of this video is obviously very different than what I have done in the past. You probably like me for my views on video games and (hopefully) Avatar, so there is a decent chance that you don't give a fuck about a musical, and to that, I would say, that's fair. I still plan to mostly focus on the stuff I have in the past, but I had this video finished and wanted to do something with it. I struggled a lot with what I should do with this video but I decided to put it on here for a few reasons. I am curious as to what the people who are subscribed to me are interested in seeing. Mainly, are you are because you like what I have to say about video games or are you here because you are interested in my perspective on various things. Depending on the reception to this, it can help me know what to focus on in the future. Also, Jesse and I put a lot of work into this video, and having that go to waste seems dumb. If you hate me branching out like this, sorry, I guess? I still intend to make the stuff you like, I just have interests in places other than video games and I am curious if you all share them as well. So, uh, let's see how this goes. I love you.

This video is different from what I normally do, so if this isn't the kind of video you came to this channel for, I hope you still find something interesting in it. I don't know if I will branch out to this sort of content again, but I wanted to give it a shot because a) I really like this play and b) I want to know what you guys are interested in me covering different kinds of stuff. I like to create stuff that you guys are interested in, but I also have stuff that I want to talk about aside from games, so I am trying to find the best way to do that. Anyway, if you are looking for a new video on games, I have one that is actually close to being done, so expect that sometime in the next few weeks. Thanks for being here. I appreciate you.

@razbuten 6 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I know. My use of that clip is just showing that Eliza is associated with the motif "Helpless." It was not me trying to say that that song was "Helpless." There is only so much footage out there of the show, so it is hard to find good clips that perfectly line up with a point. For example, the clip I use of Washington a few seconds later is from "Right Hand Man," not "History Has its Eyes on You." Because Lin has not released the whole show, it is slim pickings out here. With that said, I liked using the clip from "Burn" because it does signify the point in the show where Eliza stops being helpless and takes actual action.

Hamilton got me into history and musicals, I've heard too much horrible mainstream rap from my country that one musical could redeem it for me, but it helped me get a more open mind for rap and hip hop again. It's really amazing, to be honest. On it's own I don't like any of it's components, but I somehow ended up loving the musical anyway.

Rachel Marie wouldn't say it's original by any means. Historical Rap has been around since the 80's-90's. It's just one of those things people rave about because it's popular, it's the same reason shows like Jersey Shore got talked about to no end or everyone went around pointing at shoes saying "what are those!". I saw some werido lady/man just jamming out to it in traffic just headbanging, screaming at the top of their lungs and it made me understand better seeing who the audience is as to why it was popular. It's rap music for people who don't like rap. I listened to it and it's laughable, it's a parody.

Close, but not quite. The version of the actual duel itself in the off-Broadway version was called Ten Things, One Thing. In the off-Broadway version, the aftermath was The World Was Wide Enough. Of course, Burr's perspective of the duel, Hamilton's interlude, and the aftermath of it are now encompassed into the current The World Was Wide Enough and Ten Things, One Thing was subsequently cut from the final version. And the line is actually, "I know this puts me in a difficult spot, but I've got to throw away my shot."

I wondered about this too, at first, but as I got into other musicals, I realized that it's pretty much a normal thing with musicals for them to have really bizarre premises. Take some of the most popular ones: Wicked is basically Oz fanfiction, Cats is about cats?, The Sound of Music is about Nazis and nuns and children, The Lion King is Hamlet with animals, Phantom of the Opera is about a weird obsessive reclusive dude who sings lots in a basement, Chicago is about female murderers and jazz, Les Mis is about sad people and one tiny unsuccessful barricade in the French revolution.

At first, I loved Hamilton because of how catchy it was. Then I appreciated the deep story, the characters, and how I suddenly deeply cared about names that I learned from a textbook. But rather than getting tired of Hamilton, I just saw more and more depth in it, appreciating each song more than I had the last time a heard it. Burr shows everything I love about the musical. He is an incredible villain but he never stopped feeling like a genuinely decent and understandable person. Room Where It Happens is the catchiest song in the musical, with blues, a full orchestra and the repetition. But after listening to the musical a few times, you can pinpoint this song as Burr's breaking point, where he'll take risks like Hamilton but still keep his beliefs ambiguous. And this is only enriched when you realize that this is what happened historically, feeding into me caring for long dead historical figures.

Step 9: Stalk the original cast on social media and show your love for the show by writing fanfiction, making fan art, DIYs and maybe giving those animatics a try. Step 10: Wait impatiently for the original casts' Hamilton performace to be released on DVD just like Lin promised but it's likely that that's not gonna happen in the next 10 years.

Great video! I’d noticed about the internal rhymes and repetitions but hadn’t really thought about the development of meaning. Repeating phrases with altering meaning is something I like in films, tv and novels, so of course in something as text-heavy as a hip hop musical it has even greater potential, and they exploited that fully.

I know that when I first watched it, I wasn't too thrilled. I thought it was too similar to Les Mis, I wasn't a fan of the production and set design, and I didn't pay too close attention to the songs, though I did think "You'll Be Back" was kind of fun and catchy. It was really busy and at times hard to follow. Then over a year later, I listened to the cast album while watching animatics, fully engrossing myself with what I was seeing, and it finally clicked with me. I ended up crying at the end, maybe not for the same reasons others did, but I got just as emotional as I did seeing Les Mis the first time with a professional cast (I first experienced it at my high school as a stage crew, not a good vantage point, but I did like it. Then the next time was the 10th anniversary concert). Pretty soon, I found myself singing the songs at random times throughout the days, getting lost in cast videos on youtube, and actually thinking about trying to get tickets someday. I realized this musical has now given me the same feelings I had with Les Mis, and I liked it rather than be repulsed by it. I get it now.

However, there was a documentary called Hamilton's America that is half about the development of the show and half about Hamilton himself, and they used some of the clips from the recording in that documentary. So that is where a lot of the footage is from. The documentary is great, so you should check it out. ALSO. ENJOY THE HELL OUT OF THE SHOW.

I initially subscribed after I saw your video on Avatar and hoped you would make more videos like this. Naturally, I watched your other videos immediately after that and found that those that I watched (I guess 15 of your 18 videos if I remember correctly 3 months later - talking about lasting impressions) really confirmed my subscription choice. Heck, I almost bought a Nintendo Switch for the sole purpose of playing Breath of the Wild after seeing your video (being the RPG enthusiast that I am, fully trusting in your judgement). Oh, and I can absolutely relate to your sentiment that you don't cry a lot, except for Hamilton. Long story short: Please keep up the exceptional work. If you ever establish a Patreon page I will finally create a Patreon account, just to redirect some funds to you. :)

I knew this play was well loved, and seeing this now makes me understand why now. You now convinced me to really see this show, although going to see one now is nigh impossible. I guess I'll have to do with listening to the soundtrack for now. :\ Regardless, glad to see you branching out a bit Raz.

Honestly, Hamilton is so good because it has so much people can relate to in it. It's doesn't matter that it happened so long ago, the character are just so HUMAN that you can't help but love it. It's realistic and it tugs at all the right emotions so it's can't help but be great.

To be honest, i got into Hamilton from my sister. She played it and i fell in love with it. I hadnt been interested in history or musicals until that point but Hamilton catapulted me into a live for both of those (i didnt say hip hop because i was already in a hip hop group for 2 years). That is why hamilton is dear in my heart, it introduced me to worlds of knowlede and interests.
