Let's look at the Stay Alive theme, which has its roots as the James Bond theme and perhaps goes back even earlier. But instead of copying it, Lin-Manuel Miranda makes it his own with meanings and variations that draw on our associations while making new ones. I'm really enjoying having you on this journey as I attempt to figure out the musical architecture of HAMILTON!

22 years of reluctant piano lessons---and Hamilton is the first musical collection that actually caught my imagination! Even before your explanation, I had started to catch the chord progressions and how they were interconnected melodically. So much of Hamilton is technically evocative. I've been able to learn scores easily, just because I can hear the melody and bass line as clearly as I can see color. Hamilton is a joy to play.

Holy shit, I didn't think that you could ever top your previous videos, but this one absolutely blows them out of the park. The in-depth explanations of the technical aspects of the music were clear, easy to follow and very much appealed to music theory nerds like me; the comparison and demonstration of similar motifs in other pieces of music was an absolutely brilliant way of emphasizing your point and making the motif easier to distinguish, and the musical connections you drew between different tracks in Hamilton were simply ingenious and I seriously don't understand how your ears are so well trained that you can pick out such subtleties and explain them so cleverly.

The stay alive theme also kind of appear in "you'll be back" and other King George variations; in which the order of the chord progressions are inverted altered and changed to major key, at least that's what it sounded like. It can possibly represent how King George III is a constant threat to the revolution, but also because he's royalty and his "joyful" nature his songs are ironically lively, in contrast to the very obsessive and narcissistic lyrics. I might be wrong but I really hope you see this, these videos literally changed my view on Lin's Genius, thank you so much

I just noticed something. When he was explain how the Stay Alive progression went 5th to 5th augmented, then 6th, then back to 5th augmented, I was thinking about where I've hear it before. Then, it hit me. "(5th) I haven't slept in a week. I was weak. I was awake. (to 5th augmented) You've never seen a bastard orphan more in need of a break. (to 6th) Longing for Angelica, missing my wife...." But, after that, it goes into a 7th, instead of returning back to a 5th augmented. Maybe, that symbolizes how Hamilton knew he was heading into danger with Maria Reynolds(Like war, for Hamilton. Or, for James Bond....well, James Bond), but decided to keep going with Washington, or anyone else, not there to warn him. Or how it sucked him in (quite literally). EDIT: I wrote this before knowing he discussed it in the video. Dammit. This is why you don't comment before watching the full video.

Like, in the clip of One Last Time you played, I could sort of feel a tonal difference, but it's just part of a whole. I can't even pick out the notes that matter to the rest. When you differentiated whatever the hell the part you're picking out is called from the melody, I was genuinely surprised to learn that there was a difference. I think I'm tone deaf.

Awesome video as always! It's awesome that you can edit this well and have this depth of knowledge and are really just an amateur channel! I'm looking forward to some more great stuff

Howard, please keep this series of videos coming. I've learned more music theory from your analysis than from the few lessons I've ever had, and enjoyed it *far* more! And you've helped me appreciate Miranda's genius on a whole new level.

I love these so much bc its all things that I've noticed and made links of, but hearing it explained with the musical vocabulary I lack makes me feel so validated lol I'm thankful someone is making these videos in my stead

Man, this is incredible. Lin deserves so much credit; and thanks for taking this apart! I'm not sure if it's a good thing that I know now why the music breaks my heart and carries me along with it, but it's still interesting!
