It's one thing people don't pay enough attention to, the percussive nature of rap. He nails it. You can hear the drum beats and the rhythm of the music in his words, even the key changes. So well crafted.
Luna T nope he has to finish his verse of “I am not throwing away my shot I am not throwing away my shot He-yo I’m just like my country: I’m young, scrappy, and hungry And I am not throwing away my shot” And then the ensemble enters by repeating that stanza. Which is followed by Lafayette’s solo and then Mulligan’s finishing with Laurens’s
No. Miranda is a professional theatre performer. He doesn't get nervous. He's actually incredibly GRACIOUS. That's what that was about. Actors are frequently extremely narcissistic and love attention. A gracious celebrity will downplay their fame and talent. That's what makes them charismatic and likable. And Miranda is EXTREMELY grounded. Notice when he threw out that bit about remembering what is was like to be busking? That was very calculated on his part to remind people that he is thankful for where he is and doesn't take it for granted. As far as why he stopped... he had to stop SOMEtime. This is running television. He can't just TAKE OVER the show for 3 minutes while he does his performance and everyone else just sits there watching him. I mean, what, you really thought he forgot the lyrics? He wrote them. He performed it every night for a year. He's about to go on tour and do it again. He did NOT forget the lyrics. He was being gracious. The "It's something like that" was just his way of getting out of it once he got into it. He had to say something to turn it back over to Graham.
JazGalaxy Everyone gets nervous performing in front of big crowds and he’s literally performing in front of millions of people on television. After a while performing gets easier and you get a little less nervous but everyone feels at least a few butterflies in their stomach when performing. It’s perfectly human and normal
Fun fact that I learned from one of my friends. Lafayette’s rap in Guns and Ships is the fastest rap to ever happen in a Broadway musical. Until it was done on Broadway, the fastest was the one from Satisfied. One musical having the two fastest raps on Broadway is crazy. Satisfied is also one of the only taps that Lin messes up on. He admires any actress that is able to pull it off.
The entire show is done in a faster beat than most musicals. If it ran at the same speed at regular musicals it would be three times as long. Lin is amazing, his cast is amazing, representation is amazing. I love it.
we went on a road trip and i learned to rap guns and ships. i can only do it from muscle memory because my brain can’t comprehend the words as i’m saying them lmao
The laugh is knowing Americans are living the same experience of having a nutty head of state, the biiig difference is that they picked him out and voted him to the position.
@@Dante_Sethspeak for yourself. Every kid I have ever performed with, including myself, have been riddled with anxiety. Performing is a way to own and control that anxiety. It’s actually one of the top recommended therapies for anxiety because it works so well! Sure maybe not ALL theater kids have anxiety, but a huge portion do. Or at least some type of social awkwardness that is only truly understood by other theater kids.

I love how Emily Blunt's stare is just dripping with adoration..basically me everytime I come back to this video or see/hear/think anything related to Hamilton 😂
ok but can i just talk about that lyric for a sec? "i am not throwing away my shot" is the most genius line in the entire damn play. alex says it for the whole play but in the end, he points his gun in the air and doesn't shoot aaron burr, (he throws away his shot). lin is a genius.
You can just hear Lin's passion for theater in general in this interview. I've heard him in others too and he sounds like a little kid who got a brand new toy for Christmas and can't wait to play with it. One of those guys who deserves all his success and you genuinely want to do well. Keep ascending Mr. Miranda - you deserve it!
Wait a second so I have a quick question. I’ve never actually been to the play I’ve watched it on Disney+ but anyway. Was he never in it before? Like I know he wrote it but did he never actually perform it in front of a gigantic audience.
I imagine it takes a lot of practice and time, and it’s why actors & singers on this level deservedly are paid the big bucks and why I personally admire people like Lin who create art like Hamilton for all of us to enjoy and to inspire some of us to do the same.

"there isnt a famous person in the world who hasnt seen hamilton" lins face after this is purely priceless, like in that one second you can see the shock and amazement his face. hes a theatre kid who made it and i love that
It kind of reminds me of what inspired School House Rock. A creator/producer was wondering why his son couldn’t memorize his times tables but knew so many popular songs by heart.
I love how he says he would rather be fielding requests for tickets to his show than basically begging random strangers on the street to see his show. I mean that is the big picture. Beautiful.
Totally CMK I think that’s how he wrote it so well he studied about hamilton so much he kinda turned a bit in to him and that’s how he wrote the story so well
Lin is the human embodiment of uncomfortable singing but super good at singing anyways, and also having the talent of singing an entire musical by himself
*We’re outgunned.* *What?!* *Outmanned.* *What?!* *Outnumbered, outplanned.* *So we gotta make an all outstand, and yo I’m gonna neeed a Right Hand Man!*
ME TOO. I thought I was the only one. The first time I knew Lin and Hamilton, they always reminds me of RDJ and Tony Stark. Different but similar in their own way.
Yeah, you know when I first told my sister about Hamilton and showed her Lin’s beautiful face I was like ‘hey, wait a minute...HE KINDA LOOKS LIKE TONY STARK’ my sister also agreed xd

Britain was very divided about the American War at the time. As were the colonies themselves... though the loyalist Americans are usually written out of the narrative.
@Marvel'sDoctorEd 2 Ah, I misunderstood you. You're certainly right about that. I thought you were suggesting that George III was a specifically maligned or mocked figure in the UK.
@@willhazell1447 It was very controversial and scandalous- kind of like Brexit is today. It's important to understand that the colonists, including the Founding Fathers, identified as British. Benjamin Franklin lived in London for over 15 years. He attended George III's coronation, and his son William, was in the procession.
It's especially impressive that he just admitted that this was the hardest part of the performance for him to get through, then he has to perform it on the spot, acapella with zero preparation (mental or vocal) knowing that if he screws it up most people aren't going to appreciate the actual degree of difficulty for what he's doing.
God, I love that you can hear the absolute silence in the room when he’s going through his rap; he’d completely captivated the audience. What a legend of a man

Emily Blunt is such a supportive friend! She was really impressed and really enjoyed it. I was watching her reaction. The others as well.
"there isnt a famous person in the world who hasnt seen hamilton"
lins face after this is purely priceless, like in that one second you can see the shock and amazement his face. hes a theatre kid who made it and i love that
*Nails the entire rap*: “.. it’s something like that”
Uh huh, okay totally Miranda..
I was soooooo hoping the the audience would say “he says in parentheses” with Lin
SAME
Emily Blunt was like the full support best friend especially with her “now drink now drink” at the end 💖
i thought she kinda sorta maybe played the “we are close friends not just co-stars” a little too much there for a moment
@@kbelle4138same ngl. A little bit too much touchy touch
she was thirst for him the entire time
i just realized that in us history in a few years teachers r gonna be lazy and let kids watch Hamilton in class for a few days to review. lucky brats
Lmao
My history teacher had us listen to the soundtrack on classroom because she was sick and our sub had no clue what was going on for the class.
It kind of reminds me of what inspired School House Rock. A creator/producer was wondering why his son couldn’t memorize his times tables but knew so many popular songs by heart.
we are literally watching hamilton for history class right now haha
it helped me for some of my history exams actually hahah
"Romanes ite domum"
I love how he says he would rather be fielding requests for tickets to his show than basically begging random strangers on the street to see his show. I mean that is the big picture. Beautiful.
At the Edinburgh Fringe, too - as an Englishman who has spent most of his life in Edinburgh, I love that he came here before he was famous...
Emily Blunt being a wonderful audience member is so endearing.
Just realized Lin embodied Hamilton when writing Hamilton, 6 years of writing like he was running out of time 😳
I was laughing at that I'm like sir you wrote it and I'm like it's something like that
honestly lin is like hamilton in alot of ways (which is probably why he casted himself as him lol)
Totally CMK
I think that’s how he wrote it so well he studied about hamilton so much he kinda turned a bit in to him and that’s how he wrote the story so well
He also did sooo much during the play (producer, actor, lyricist, playwright), just like Hamilton would’ve
Imagine being the dude who single handedly made theatre cool for an entire generation and musicals something you actually want to sit through.
emily: "Ive seen it 4 times"
*cries in poor and australian*
Do not fear. Hamilton is coming to Sydney next year.
You can watch it for $13
At your home
Thank you Disney + right?
Get a free trial for Disney + watch it and cancel your trial
Lin-Manuel Miranda gives me dad vibes yet childhood wonder vibes. He's just genuinely a funny guy.
Basically the dad who’s just wants to make sure you’re having fun
Lin is the human embodiment of uncomfortable singing but super good at singing anyways, and also having the talent of singing an entire musical by himself
no, Lin is the embodiment of singing confidently while in the bathroom
Me:
*watches Lin sing " My Shot "
Brother:
*walks in"
Brother: Is that Sign Language?
My cat is concerned with the amount of laughing I did. 😂
No, it's Lin Language.
OMG...DEAD💀😂😂😂😂😂!!!!
the way i LAUGHED so loud
HAHAHA
Lin: *raps My Shot with almost not effort*
Also Lin: “sOmthing like that”
He’s a genius!! Talent beyond belief!
The real question is... what about guns and ships?? 😂😂
And so the balance shifts. They rendezvous with Rochambeau, consolidate their gifts.
*We’re outgunned.*
*What?!*
*Outmanned.*
*What?!*
*Outnumbered, outplanned.*
*So we gotta make an all outstand, and yo I’m gonna neeed a Right Hand Man!*
kawaiipandaplays HAMILTON
Lxve oof wrong song, dude.
Guns and Ships is mad
"cAn I sTaNd?"
man, u are lin manuel miranda....
OF COURSEEEEE
The way he starts to smile
Like he's remembering how the audience did-- I love him
this performer/writer/entire show is beyond impressive - so inspirational, for everyone, everywhere - go for it!
Am I the only one who thinks he’s rocking a Tony Stark vibe in this?
ME TOO. I thought I was the only one. The first time I knew Lin and Hamilton, they always reminds me of RDJ and Tony Stark. Different but similar in their own way.
YES HIS CONFIDENCE AND THE WAY THAT HE LIKE SITS A BIT OFF THE CHAIR WHEN TALKING TO GRAHAM
Yeah, you know when I first told my sister about Hamilton and showed her Lin’s beautiful face I was like ‘hey, wait a minute...HE KINDA LOOKS LIKE TONY STARK’ my sister also agreed xd
yes
He's tony stark that pursues a musical career
Lin's wife: Stay. In. Bed
Lin, with a fever of 104: I can do it, I can do it
If that doesn't scream Alex and Eliza, I dunno what does
Accurate AF
That just screams every actor ever! XD
“Why do you write like you’re running out of time? Performing day and night like you’re running out of time?”
He probably had some inspiration while writing it
104 fever... Jay-Z will be there. I can do it. I'm fine, I get up.
Ferris' parents: 'NO!'
But I want to go to a good
college, so I can have a fruitful life
I love how he spells ALEXANDER and I can still hear the beat
Me too. He looked so nervous it was adorable!
NO-TO-RIO-US, u just, lay down slow- Notorious BIG
paying homage to the greatest.
JG Adms omg i heard that too!!
I was surprised the audience wasn't whispering or singing it along with him at that part. I mean..... I know I was 😜(definitely not while watching this alone in a silent room)
3:53 emily is just.. hypnotized by this man's talent.. like everybody else, am i right?-
Everybody form a protective circle around Lin. He is too precious for this world.
Mid
me: is British
also me: proudly raps My Shot and guns and Ships as if im American and theyre not making redcoats redder with bloodstains
lol
Lol
Same
Isn't Guns n Ships rapped in a French accent for half the song
@@KitsunoIRL yes?
Who's back again after it's out on Disney+
Yup it was so good
shottiez me
Absolutely! While the world’s gone mad & there is no amusement ANYWHERE, we are forced to (thankfully) watch Hamilton streaming on Disney+. Thank goodness! Absolutely brilliant. But I’m sure not a shade on the live production. I want to hear those heavenly voices!! Love love love 💕
I’m back after seeing it on Disney today. It’s absolutely wonderful.
I haven't seen it yet I have disney + but haven't got round to watching it
Brings tears to my eyes especially when he goes into the zone. Such brilliance!
Lin: raps for 2 minutes
His hands: 👈☝️🖖👇🖐✋🤚👋👈👇✋👎👍✊👈
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
gAnG gAnG
Why did I try the movements myself
Eunji Kim me too!
0:09 That look is so genuine. That's the look of someone who's realized he made it.
Ikr it's like he is realizing how much he's accomplished and is so proud of it🖤🖤🖤
I swear that his fans know the lyrics to the musical better than he does
PLEASE RIGHT i think i heard him say he doesnt know the words the wait for it I might be wrong tho💀
Oop 😂😂 facts
LOL I WAS LITERALLY THINKING THIS YESTERDAY
That's what fans do! Fandom you know!!
@@ok-ht5md well he’s not in wait for it
3:59 You can see the smile come on; he knows he's in the groove now.
Lin: I can do it.. I can do it!
Lin’s wife: SAVE YOUR STRENGTH AND STAY ALIVE!!!!!!
(I’m so sorry... goodbye enjoy your day.)
THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH!
LIN IS POSSESED BY ALEXANDER HAMILTON!!!
Queen Bee -- IS HE BREATHING IS HE GOING TO SURVIVE THIS?! WHO DID THIS? ALEXANDER DID YOU KNOW?!
NOOOOOOOOO
You know sometimes I worry about Lin-Manuel Miranda’s hands
they go 👋🏻👉🏻🤙🏻💪🏻🤙🏻🖐🏻👋🏻🤚🏻👋🏻🤙🏻🤘🏻🤛🏻👎🏻🤲🏻👍🏻👐🏻🤜🏻🤞🏻👊🏻🤟🏻👊🏻🖐🏻👎🏻✋🏻🤜🏻✋🏻
He’s Puertorican, we all do that
@@veronicadiaz9895 I'm half puerto rican and have cuban so I do that with one hand and row away from tyrannical communist regimes on a makeshift life raft with the other hand :D
Rapportus5 😂😂😂
@@veronicadiaz9895 lol :D
Lin: nails all the lyrics
Also Lin: “it’s something like that”
I can't count how many times I've watched this great entertainer in his role in Hamilton. He is truly one of the great people in the entertainment industry. Both humble and talented sometimes seems like a rare combination
Lin: “C-Can I stand?” *stands up*
Audience: *immense clapping*
Lin: b-but why??
CAUSE YOU'RE AMAZING
King George: You’ll be BECK!
Years later...
Brits applauding the American Revolution!
@Marvel'sDoctorEd 2 That's really not true.
Britain was very divided about the American War at the time. As were the colonies themselves... though the loyalist Americans are usually written out of the narrative.
@Marvel'sDoctorEd 2 Ah, I misunderstood you. You're certainly right about that.
I thought you were suggesting that George III was a specifically maligned or mocked figure in the UK.
@@willhazell1447 It was very controversial and scandalous- kind of like Brexit is today. It's important to understand that the colonists, including the Founding Fathers, identified as British. Benjamin Franklin lived in London for over 15 years. He attended George III's coronation, and his son William, was in the procession.
Lin: I could try
Also Lin: *sounds exactly like the soundtrack*
It's especially impressive that he just admitted that this was the hardest part of the performance for him to get through, then he has to perform it on the spot, acapella with zero preparation (mental or vocal) knowing that if he screws it up most people aren't going to appreciate the actual degree of difficulty for what he's doing.
I love that every muscle in his body and in his face is performing along with the song. Expression, breathing, hands, everything is acting.
God, I love that you can hear the absolute silence in the room when he’s going through his rap; he’d completely captivated the audience. What a legend of a man
When lin forgets his own lyrics but sum how I know them
*somehow
Same bro
Meeeeeeee
I HAVE A PROBLEMMMMMM
@@wanjikuwangondu7032 don't we all
That's cause he's got all the other brilliant things he's written and ia writing in his head and we only have Hamilton lol
It's not often that I find myself applauding the laptop but My word. Wasn't that just epic. Love!! Graham you know how to coax the best out of people and Lin-Manuel you are such an inspiration to me. Pure genius
We say Hugh Jackman is the greatest showman but Lin-Manuel Miranda sure does have a horse in this race
I love Hugh Jackman but I don't think he has anything on Lin. They just have completely different skill sets.
@@daidarabotchi3891 It's settled then. They shall fight to the death to determine who the greatest showman really is!
Lin is a genius, Hugh is good but lin is on his own league
@@clarkparker4860 *IT'S THE TEN DUEL COMMANDMENTS*
It's apples & oranges, but good golly, if we could get them in something together...woo!!!
Graham really outdid himself with this year’s guests. BTS AND Lin? This is already my favorite show now no one can top it
maryam malik truth 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🐴
Ellen had them on her show too, ya know
@@misskalea631 I'm sorry, who?
So when Lin was sick
He still wanted to go to Broadway
His wife told him to stay still
Remind you of something?
-Or, rather, someONE?-
Book Butterfly HmMMMmmMmmm NOooooOoo
Oh no.
BUT YOU REFUSED TO
Now the question is if Alexander Hamilton himself possesses Lin Manuel-Miranda or if he's the reincarnation of Alexander of Hamilton
Alex : * cuts Peggy off *
Peggy : it would a shame if * puts on lipstick * something happed to * puts on red dress * his marriage
Maria (Peggy) : *black mails Alex *
