"It's Quiet Uptown" is definitely one of the best songs in Hamilton. You can feel the emotion in Renee's voice.

To me it's the saddest music Lin ever wrote.It's heartbreaking.

I refuse to believe she is almost 50

I've been a fan of Renee's for many years. I remember when she had gotten pretty far along in a pregnancy...then had to delivery a stillborn. She sang that song from the heart.

I think everyone’s first reaction was tears.

I cry buckets when I hear this song. But I cry over Hamilton's understanding of her pain. Of how he is brought to his knees and humbly stays by her side knowing that it's by her grace that he is even allowed to stand there. I am crying as I write this.

The fact that she gets emotional over the song shows how invested she is in this show and how empathetic she is.

while all the “can you imagine?” and “the unimaginable” hurts every single time (cause like NO I CANT IMAGINE) the line that will always break me and always has is “the moments when you’re in so deep, it feels easier to just swim down”

Renée Elise Goldsberry. Renée Elise Goldsberry. 🙇🏾‍♀️

We will often refuse to extend forgiveness for the slightest insult. And then there’s this song... 🤩

Lin’s music is amazing. He’s mind is just so great. This song is so heartbreaking, and Lin captured it perfectly.

Her calling Lin a kid is funny, cause I always forget that she’s older than him.

I lost my only child, my 21-yr-old son, in 2016. Eliza’s shock, numbness and needing space, the quiet uptown, was captured perfectly. I still can’t “get back to politics” rightly after that scene.

The one dislike is from the person who is jealous of how perfect Renee is

To me, the part where I cry the most is when Eliza starts speaking and Alexander cries on her shoulder (instead of her crying on his shoulder) . That just prooves how strong Eliza is.

This song makes me cry every time. You can hear, feel, and see the emotion from everyone. So beautifully written and performed.

Im agreeing with Renee here, Its Quiet Uptown is a beautiful song and Lin wrote it very well💜

Did anyone else listen to “It’s Quiet Uptown” about 5 times in a row just to cry

Oh I didn't know she lost a child :(

Every time this song plays, I cry. I don't have kids of my own, but I cannot imagine what it feels like.

literally the first few keys make me bawl

Such a powerful and beautiful song - I sobbed the first time I heard it. As a parent, .I haven't been through this kind of loss, and pray that I never have to go through it. But...it's beautiful that Lin gave voice to this grief - "the unimaginable" grief of losing a child - through this song and this story.

I am in awe of how wise she is, and how well she understands the characters

I have never cried as many times watching a movie, let alone at any Broadway play I've seen, as I did with Hamilton the movie.... Even after watching it over and over non stop 2-3 days later since last Friday. I still cry. It all gets me every time. Just a masterpiece in every sense of the word.

Hamilton's reaction when Eliza forgives him just makes me crumble inside. Lin-Manual Miranda is a genius - it's as simple as that.

What a great job Miss Goldsberry did with this great song. My favorite moment in this great musical. The theme of loss and finally finding the ability to forgive. Not blame, but forgive. Truly inspiring and moving, made even more poignant by Miss Goldsberry's incredibly thoughtful, emotional rendition. Wow. This song, this scene, a work of genius, well played by Miss Goldsberry, Lin Manuel Miranda and Philippa Soo. Forgiveness. We could all do with some of that. And more importantly, we can all do what is perhaps the most difficult thing to do. Truly forgive others. And all will be better for it.

I cry, sob whenever I watch and listen to this track! So much feels!!! They got you so invested in the characters/people, you already feel their pain!

Forgiveness. Can you imagine? The first time I heard that chord, I sobbed audibly on a plane. Those are my favorite lyrics in the whole show.

I cry every time I listen to that song. It’s such a painful process- dealing with the unimaginable.

Renée is an angel

That was so beautifully put. She's right, it is masterful. And having Eliza not talk is also incredibly moving. I hadn't thought about the choices he made, I was just so into the story.

The moment I saw "It's Quiet Uptown" on disney+, and i saw the expression on Lin's face, i realized that *tears really do be salty doe*

Besides Helpless being one of my favorite song, my other favorite song is It's Quiet Uptown. It's such a beautiful song but at the same time, it's so heartbreaking. You can see and feel the pain Eliza and Hamilton feel after losing their son. 😭🤧

One of the best lines ever is "You have to be a parent ever though you don't get to have a child anymore." Which is so sad to think about, because no one has a kid with the expectation. Of you out living them.

I first heard only the soundtrack of Hamilton to understand what the story is. It's Quiet Uptown left me bawling my eyes out. Continuously for 5 times when I heard that song. And the other one that made me tear up was Who Lives Who Dies Who Tells Your Story.

She thought "This kid is insane"

Been a fan of hers since OLTL

it hurts to see lin sob & cry during the show

this song is so beautiful. lin is incredibly talented, and everyone who sang in it really made it what it is. just beautiful.

The part where my heart breaks is when Eliza say to Alex '' It's quite uptown'' Idk whyyy

She’s lost a child? Oh god

"Forgiveness, can you imagine" Is a line that always hits hard in the spot, always...

This song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.

I've never been so early on a vid and I'm here to stay (pun, you get me?) Anyway that songs is the utmost beautiful song. I always.. always cry when the piano line starts 😭😭😭

I cried even listening to her talking about the song. It is that powerful.

She’s so stunning and so talented!!

it’s quiet uptown makes me bawl my eyes

Hamilton was the first movie that made me cry. It was during this song.

It's quiet uptown is so well writen.Lin is amazing when it comes to write really happy songs but he really can make you cry with his lyrics. Songs i feel super emotional when i hear it,not only because they're sad,but because of the beauty of the lyrics: The world was wide enough Stay alive(reprise) Who lives who dies who tells your story Burn Breathe Alabanza Finale(In the heights) It's almost like praying History has its eyes on you Finale(21 chump street) Wait for it Paciencia y fe Dear theodosia Hundreds of stories How far i'll go And a lot more...

I dont have any children but I cry my eyes out every damn time I cant listen to this song without crying

Renee is so beautiful and talented. She is a joy to watch perform ^_^

I wish that she and Pippa or any other Broadway actresses had like an 'Actors on Actors' but just 'Singers on Singers'hours-long interview where they got really technical like 'Oh this show was the most demanding' and 'oh yes I really polished my passaggio in this year of school' and 'this was my favourite most valuable technique that I learned in'

Beautifully said

I was in tears

He even includes the ineffable qualities of grace and forgiveness, and does so perfectly. Makes me wonder if some people aren't just vessels to channel creativity for the enjoyment of the collective consciousness.

What a beautiful way to put it.

HOLD ON! - how THE hell did I just realize she’s in the Altered Carbon Netflix series!? Lmaoo I literally never connected the dots. I had no idea she was an actress too! Mind blown...

I cried ugly when he sang "If I could spare his life, If I could trade his life for mine. He'd be standing here right now, and you would smile, and that would be enough." It was very painful because of his regret. It was more emotional because when Lin sang this live he was also crying. 😢😢😢😢

Lin is talented frrrrrrrrr

"This kid" pfffffffffffff "He had a dog" yes.

why did i not cry i feel emotional though......

It's haunting for sure. It stays with you long after the performance is over.

There are moments that the words don't reach There is suffering too terrible to name You hold your child as tight as you can And push away the unimaginable The moments when you're in so deep It feels easier to just swim down The Hamiltons move uptown And learn to live with the unimaginable I spend hours in the garden I walk alone to the store And it's quiet uptown I never liked the quiet before I take the children to church on Sunday A sign of the cross at the door And I pray That never used to happen before Philip, you would like it uptown, it's quiet uptown You knock me out, I fall apart Look at where we are Look at where we started I know I don't deserve you, Eliza But hear me out That would be enough If I could spare his life If I could trade his life for mine He'd be standing here right now And you would smile, and that would be enough I don't pretend to know The challenges we're facing I know there's no replacing what we've lost And you need time But I'm not afraid I know who I married Just let me stay here by your side That would be enough If you see him in the street, walking by her side Talking by her side, have pity Eliza, do you like it uptown? It's quiet uptown Look around, look around, Eliza (They are trying to do the unimaginable) There are moments that the words don't reach There is a grace too powerful to name We push away what we can never understand We push away the unimaginable They are standing in the garden Alexander by Eliza's side She takes his hand It's quiet uptown

This song starts to have a different meaning when your family has lost a child and i didn’t realise how different it would be until it happened to mine

How is Renee 49? she looks so young oh my goodness!!

I’m crying a bit here😓❤️😥

Wow wow wow!

she's so distractingly beautiful.. i watched this video twice and i didnt pay attention to what she said both the times

I don't get all the hate on Lin.He's the writer of the show.Without him...there will be no show.I'll never understand why people don't like him.

❤❤❤

Renee is so strong 😭💕 now I'm crying Btw: she called Lin a kid HAHAHAHAH Lin is a kid in an adult body, he is a genius Linnamon roll ✨

My reaction: I’m not crying you’re crying

And now....I honestly do not know how Miguel performs & gets through this song every performance knowing what he went through. Devastating :( .

i cried so much while the "It's Quiet Uptown" part came on ;(

Omg you are amazing I am doing a play about Hamilton and I am Angelica

I came here from a groffsauce and Lin comp LMAO🤣

I’m not a parent. I’m a daughter. Losing my mom is my worst fear.

Miguel Cervantes (current Alexander Hamilton) lost his daughter at 3 due to epilepsy. He can’t sing Dear Theodosia without getting emotional cause he didn’t get to watch his daughter come of age. How does he do It’s quiet uptown every night?

I can’t believe she’s almost 50 but she also isn’t human.

The ongoing question for many is should we keep treading water?

❤️ ~✿~❧~🌿~❧~✿~ ❤️

i think my eyes are sweating🤔🤔

Wasn’t Dear Theodosia inspired by Lin’s dog?

216 years ago today, Alexander Hamilton died.

The biggest mistake from parents is thinking that if someone has never had kids, that they wouldn’t understand anything involving kids...

#AvaBenincasa deserves BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS !

Some people just get waayy more than their share of desirable human attributes. It must be nice, it must be nice...

Kid? The person who wrote it was a kid?

Sounds like she had a miscarriage :///

okay who the f disliked mfs

Why dose she call Lin a kid?

why is there no word for women who loses a child?
