- Hamilton is a phenomenal Broadway Musical, and Lin-Manuel Miranda outdid himself with the score and Alexander Hamilton! In my "Winter's Ball", "Helpless", and "Satisfied" (From "Hamilton")" reaction I listen to MORE of possibly my new FAVORITE broadway musical!
I'm a radio DJ reacting to "Winter's Ball", "Helpless", and "Satisfied" (From "Hamilton")" since it was not on the radio in the US! Listen to "Winter's Ball", "Helpless", and "Satisfied" (From "Hamilton")" on @usnavi's channel here:
• "A Winter's Ball" from...

Hamilton: An American Musical is a sung-and-rapped-through musical by Lin-Manuel Miranda. It tells the story of American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. Miranda said he was inspired to write the musical after reading the 2004 biography Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow.
The show draws heavily from hip hop, as well as R&B, pop, soul, and traditional-style show tunes. It casts non-white actors as the Founding Fathers and other historical figures. Miranda described Hamilton as about "America then, as told by America now."
It's my first time listening to Hamilton and my first time listening to "Winter's Ball", "Helpless", and "Satisfied" (From "Hamilton")"

Satisfied is so freaking good. Another reactor I watched said "How to win a Tony in five minutes".
That’s such a great way to put it. I was just crushed by its contrast to Helpless. Like it broke me
And add to that, being the one that LMM said didn’t flub a line. Jeez…
@@YoBGS i guess you could say
BOI IT GOT U HELPLESS
Apparently, the choreography for helpless/satisfied was some of the hardest in the show. The cast finished learning it and then got to the stage with the turntables and basically had to relearn it because the turntables made it even more complicated.
Edit: Also, historically speaking, Hamilton and Angelica were very good friends and she was one of his political allies, but there probably wasn't anything romantic between them. Hamilton and John Laurens, on the other hand...
If I recall correctly, the idea of her being interested in him comes mostly from one letter where she says something about them possibly doing stuff. However, since no other letter's come anywhere near this idea, it's generally accepted that this was a joke and/or impacted by the fact she was pregnant when she wrote it.
Also, the choreography for A Winter's Ball, and Helpless get carried over to Satisfied since this is the same event but from Angelica's persepctive instead.
Also, in canon timeline, Anjelica is already married by the point that she meets Hamilton, an elopement because her father disapproved of the man she loved.
@@KyliaSkydancer in the real world she was married, in the musical she mentions in a later song when she gets married. So she isn't married at this point in musical canon.
I think Angelica's character actually displays some of the same themes we saw in "Surface Pressure" about how the older sibling ends up shouldering the burden. I've seen some jokes online about the idea of "eldest daughter syndrome," which stems from the storytelling trope that the firstborn girl takes on an almost maternal level of responsibility for her younger siblings, and is willing to make all these silent sacrifices for the sake of her family. I don't think this characterization exactly describes Angelica, but we do start to see the theme of her willingness to put her sister's happiness above her own.
I am the oldest sister. I don't think there is an end of things I would do for younger siblings. If they need it I'll find a way to provide it.
Well... Actually it's Isabella that's the eldest and not Luisa... But I think Luisa should have been eldest, Mirabel as the forgotten middle child, and Isabella as the youngest perfect golden child.
I was SHOCKED when I found out Luisa wasn't the oldest. Her song hit me the most since I'm also the eldest and only girl on top of that and Luisa gave off pure Oldest Sister Energy. Satisfied hits me in a similar way, especially when she talks about loving her sister more than anything. I'd go to the ends of the earth for my little brothers 💖
@@naxurr8697 That makes sense too. But there are also cases of how the eldest are everyone's favorite when they have this 'perfect' persona. And then there's either the forgotten middle child, or the try-hard one to prove that they can be of the same level of great with the eldest. And the either spoiled, or not forgotten but no one cares about youngest.
Well this is just done for dramatic effect in the play, historically it did not happen this way. When Eliza and Hamilton met, Angelica was already married, had two children, and was living in London. They did have a flirtation in their letter to each other but that was it. Also, in the song she says her father had no sons, but there were (I think) 7 Schuyler children, several of them were boys. Plus, Angelica ran off to get married without her father’s approval.
"I never like to see people cry, even if it's in theater."
My man, get that seat belt buckled.
No no no nooooooo… lol
Its qiuet uptown...
*who lives who dies gently starts playing*
@@lily-zj7in yep! That gets me even in act one when Washington says it to Hamilton…
The craziet thing about Satisfied is how the crew just does Choreography from Helpless but in reverse and wiith stop frames.
literally! that must be so confusing and difficult to do while singing two very different songs
thing one: I LOVE a good rotating stage, and this one is used MASTERFULLY. The choreography is absolutely stunning.
thing two: When I was driving around with my sister (also a musical theatre nerd), listening to this, we got through Satisfied, and she was like 'oh, that's so sad', and I looked over and said 'Oh, my sweet summer child, we haven't even gotten to act two yet." Hold on to your butts
At the same time I’m scared and excited for where this is gonna end up
@@YoBGS YOU SHOULD BE 😂😅 some damn good stuff coming up
@@YoBGS In case no one has told you yet, the choreography for Helpless and Satisfied is completely repeated. Watch Peggy in particular! At the start of Winter's Ball you can see that woman in the white dress and the three men dance over to her, she crosses the room, and then Hamilton walks over and pushes Lafayette away from Angelica? That's all stuff you've already seen by the time Satisfied happens! It's so masterful. The rewind is a literal rewind, up to the man sliding across the stage as Angelica starts her toast.
@@darsynia Satisfied side-by-side with Winter's Ball and Helpless. ua-cam.com/video/wD2LdRGyhwY/v-deo.html
The rotating stage is one of my favorite things about watching the musical! I can’t get over any scene that includes them dancing as they rotate. The scene in My Shot when they all freeze is amazing!
All three of these songs are my favorite, we get the goofyness before the Party, we see Eliza falling in Love till they get married, then we get an unbelievable rewind to see it all from Angelica. That rewind was synced up perfectly!
me too!!! i loveeee satisfied!! my favorite songs are probably Satisfied, Room Where It Happens, Burn and Say No To This
@@klosux When we went to see hamilton I told my dad I was basing my look off of Maria, dear god his concern later on.
@@luanaastralis9991 lmao 😭😭 ur lucky though for seeing hamilton i could never since i live in asia 😭
@@klosux Oof May you rest in peace (though hopefully one day it will go to Asia, it'll probably go to bigger, more well-known countries but at least then it will be easier to go to)
Paying attention to the background dancers will come with repeated watches. Every time I watch Hamilton I see something new
The fun part is when you rewatch this and start looking for ''the bullet'' and how she interacts with the characters throughout the show
I did the same thing once I found out about “The Bullet”…it’s so cool, who she touches (never good!) who won’t take something from her…brilliant idea whoever came up with that.
The "Rewind" moment is one of the coolest stage choreography affects I have ever seen. Glad you appreciated it as much as I did the first time I saw it.
As a theatre kid there's alot of training one can do and clearly she has done to not only speak quickly but clearly. Enunciation is very important in theatre because the audience needs to be able to understand you, even if your mic works without issue it's pointless if your lines are slurred together. When I was in adv. drama in high school we always did vocal warmups before performing: Topeka topeka topeka topeka. Bodega bodega bodega bodega. Topeka bodega topeka bodega topeka bodega topeka bodega is one example as well as many others. So yea no she's not breathing and she's been training for months to not breath.😂
Stop I’ve been in drama class since freshman year and Topeka bodega lives in my mind rent free 😭😭 although my favorite is to “sit in solemn silence...”
@@salty_katt THAT'S MY FAVORITE OMG!
To sit in solemn silence in a dull dark dock
In a pestulencial prison with a lifelong lock
Awaiting the sensation of a short sharp shock
From a cheap and chippy chopper on a big black block!
The face you made when you got to the Rewind part - pure gold!
I honestly questioned for a sec if I hit a button or something or like screwed up my recording… it took longer than it should’ve to process lol
"When is this going to go horribly wrong?" Act 2
Hamilton day is my favorite day 😩
It's so gooooood!
Agreed
Yeah if you married into the Schuyler family you were golden. Angelica was already married when she met Hamilton they just did this for dramatic purposes for the show. And it’s not true they did have sons and Eliza was the only sister that her father gave his consent the other sisters eloped their husbands. A funny story is one of the sisters jumped out of the window to her future husband lol also Hamilton was a very attractive guy
Two other songs I'd say you should group together would be "Story of Tonight - Repriced" and "Wait for it", becouse they directly flow into each other.
Satisfied is one of my favourite musical numbers. The way it relates to helpless, the pure talent of Renee Elise Goldsberry, just all of it is incredible
From an historical perspective, the first thing you should know is that there was no romantic feelings between Angelica and Alexander. He was taken with Eliza from the start. And yes, he did see her as a step up, too, but then that's not unusual for the period. Angelica was particularly astute when it came to politics (so was Eliza, though she tended to keep her head down when it came to the subject) and was outspoken, but she was just a friend to the man. Despite what the musical says, Angelica had older brothers. She was a middle child, not the older (there were, in fact, a grand total of fifteen Schuyler siblings, eight of whom survived into adulthood). In order, they were Philip, Rensselaer, Cornelia, Angelca, Catherine, John, Elizabeth ("Eliza"), and Margarita "Peggy" Schuyler.
The idea that she couldn't have been with Hamilton because she had to "marry up" was not true, since her older brothers did just that. Now, the truth is she *did* marry up, but there would have been no objection to her marrying Hamilton. Its just that he was into Eliza and Angelica was never in his consideration as a marriage possibility.
BTW, the events of these three songs take place over the course of about three years, starting around 1777 and ending in 1780. The American Revolution is going on full tilt in the background at this point, and will be going on strong for the next three years. Out of the "five young men" the only one that were at Hamilton's wedding was John Laurens and Gilbert du Motier (that is, Lafayette). Hercules Mulligan and Aaron Burr hadn't been invited.
Oh, and the "feral Tom cat" story is an urban legend. Martha Washington didn't actually do it.
As well as Angelica actually already being married with children when she most likely met Hamilton. At the time, marriage into a family meant you saw your in-laws as family which is why letters can appear romantic simply because they were a lot more informal than other letters of the time. Of course, this means that authors take advantage of this a lot in fictionalised stories based on actual history (which makes sense from a storytelling point of view).
I mean, there is a battle ocurring in "Satisfied", but not an external battle with Eliza. If Alexander had an internal battle even half as strong during either "Say No To This" or "Hurricane", Eliza would have grown old with her husband and seen her first son have kids, presumably. Instead, she went through shit that I would say makes her perfectly reasonable if she wanted to burn the entire city of Weehawken, NJ.
Winter's ball is one of my favorite songs from Hamilton solely because I'm a lesbian and I'M RELIABLE WITH THE LADIES
BAHAHAHAHAHA BEST COMMENT
haha same
Satisfied is definitely one of the best songs in Hamilton. She has such a good voice.
Helpless and Satisfied. Two of the best songs in the musical. Also "Atleast I keep his eyes in my life" one of the saddest lines ever
I like just listened to the whole album.
By the way the next three songs in order are 12. The Story of Tonight (Reprise) 13. Wait for it 14. Stay Alive
It is like necessary to listen to The Story of Tonight (Reprise) and Wait for it at the same time
Thank you! That’s always what I’m making sure I do. I’d have been so bummed if I didn’t listen to y’all for this one
@@YoBGS Also, I wanna share with you what I realized. Song number 14 is Stay Alive. If you remember what Alexander Hamilton (Song) said. Alexander was a self starter at the age of 14 and since then, he goal was to- Stay Alive
@@YoBGS noo, only do story of tonight reprise and wait for it. Because, ending of stay alive will leave you in no man's Land because it has an abrupt ending. Stay alive, Ten Duel Commandments, Meet me Inside and That Would be enough needs to be done togather(because they are in proper continuation). It may sound a lot but, these 4 combined are shorter than the songs in this video.
After that, Guns and ships, History has its eyes on you, Battle of Yorktown and What comes next need to be done togather.
Please acknowledge if u read this
@@YoBGS As Jyotsna Srivastava said,
Watch Stay Alive, ten Duel Commandments, Meet me Inside and That Would be enough
Realistically you should've watched A Winters ball - Wait For it all at once as they slide into each other are are all kind of on the same night.
@@YoBGS I would just do Story if Tonight (Reprise) and Wait For It together for the next video. Stay Alive flows better with the song that comes after it!
The real Alexander and Angelica had a close relationship but there is no proof they were ever any more than flirtatious. Angelica in fact was already married by the time Alexander and Eliza met.
I’d listen to “hurricane,” “the reynolds pamphlet,” and “burn” straight through because they flow directly into each other and sound better that way!
I was waiting to see your reaction to Satisfied and it DID NOT disappoint 👏 I remember the first time I watched this my mind was blown with the revolving stage and the way the actors were rewinding Helpless IRL XD plus the musical number itself is fantastic and it’s still in my top 3 favorite Hamilton songs.
After my second rewatch I realized that they were actually rewinding everything! Like every bit of choreography since A Winter’s Ball. When Burr is singing if you could marry a sister you’re rich son, in the background we see Hamilton going up to Angelica and kissing her hand. Which then they show the details of that meeting in Satisfied. I completely missed that scene in A Winter’s Ball the first time and when I caught it I was like: no freaking way XD
Also a little bit of a fun fact, according to the cast the choreography from Helpless was the most difficult one to do. So you can just imagine what their reaction was when they told them: okay so you know how Helpless has the most difficult choreography? Okay so now I want you all to do the same thing all over again…but in reverse! 😂
Satisfied is one of my favorite songs and performances in this musical, it's unreal, Reneé Elise GoldsBerry as Angelica is truly astounding.
This is one of the songs that I connect to the most, because there's always something about unrequited love, or love that is not meant to be that hurts me and the best way possible. A pleasurable kind of ache.
Love is an act of giving and letting go, which is what Angelica does. She gives her sister what she wants, and let's the one she loves go.
A wonderful piece of art.
Been binging these and I wanted to pause to thank you for saying "whomever you choose to love, if you choose to love anyone at all" 🙏🥰😍 This is such inclusive language and beautifully phrased!
I don't think a lot people yet realize, with the various types of attraction (Platonic, Romantic, Sexual, Sensual, Aesthetic, Emotional, & Intellectual) not every type is experienced by every person (and/or may be experienced infrequently, and/or may require another type of attraction to occur first)
A lot of people are getting better at the "whomever" part, but the "if" part still confuses folks (as does the "how many" part).
Anyway, that was a full on rant, but I wanted you to know that this was great to hear, so thank you! 🥰😊
Peggy is the main star of this vid to me!! Look at her vibing!!
Yee, the thing you noticed about Burr was right
Continue to notice, because you can cleary hear the annoyance and anger in his voice later on
"Hamilton bit of a player there" huh, that's a statement
No spoilers
Renee Elise Goldsberry is the vocal powerhouse who played the role of Angelica Schuyler. She won a Tony Award for this role. Phillipa Soo, who played Eliza, was nominated for a Tony.
You: "It's ART"
Me, sobbing, hand to mouth watching you experience for the first time: YES! YES IT IS!!!! *sobs more*
Later, you: I don't want to see anybody cry
Us: OH NOOOOOO
Order for the next songs to watch:
[The story of tonight-reprise, Wait for it]
[Stay Alive, Ten Duel Commandments, Meet me inside]
[That Would be enough]
[Guns and Ships, History has its eyes on you]
[Yorktown]
[What comes next? Dear Theodosia, Laurens interlude]
[Non-Stop]
And that will finish Act One for you.
Just took a big ole screen shot of this because this is awesome. Thank you so much!
Fun fact: in some shots there are flowers on angelica's dress and in some shots there aren't
"i never wanna see somebody cry" boy are in for some heartbreak
I love how both Angelica and Eliza are ready to sacrifice their own happiness for the other.
UNPOPULAR OPINION TIME
Eliza is my favorite Schuyler sister🖤
If you watch helpless and satisfied next to each other they basically do the same dancing for both numbers and it's freaking epic. In person is so amazing.
This was SUCH a fun show to audition for on Broadway. I made it through the first audition and the first round of callbacks and it was easily my favorite audition memory.
That's so wild!! Congrats for even making it through the first audition!
On A Winters Ball I love how it starts with Aaron burr just insulting Hamilton to show his rising dislike for him kindaaaaa foreshadowing. I also like how at 17:31 Angelica asked "wheres your family from" and Alex discards the question because HE HAS NO FAMILY, nice one Lin-Manuel
Hey friends, more Hamilton stuff to come sooner rather than later BUT, I've also started a series looking at weird trends online. Check out my latest video on the wild man Andrew Tate here: ua-cam.com/video/RCW-OQV4oMA/v-deo.html
You should react to Sabaton. They do music based on history and it really tells a story. I recommend no bullets fly, the animated story video. Also great reaction.
I’ll never get over this whole show and how great everything was matched togetger
It’s addicting because it’s written so well and the songs go right into each other.
Was responding to something you said but couldn’t figure out how to do it with including a spoiler and had to figuratively swallow it and delete. So impatient for more 🤐
You should totally watch BMC (be more chill) its also a musical and it has some pretty good music aswell.
Altogether its basically a "don't do drugs" musical exept its intresting so y'know
Idk if other ppl also wanna see it but it would be cool :]
In the beginning of A Winter's Ball when you hear that melody that is like Alexander Hamilton reprise, that is the narration melody. Remember, Aaron Burr is telling you this story. He often starts a scene with a little narration to set the stage if you will. 😊 Good call on watching the D+ version by the way! And thanks for sharing.
For me, these three songs in tandem mark the point where someone first seeing Hamilton goes from "this is really good" to having their jaw drop and realizing that it's amazing. By the time you get to the end of the play, you feel the full weight of how unprecedented Hamilton is as a work of art. I've been a musical theater geek for 50 years and this blows me away. The fact that you listen to music every day and are also blown away by Hamilton speaks volumes about how remarkable it is.
For the rest of Act 1, I would combine:
Story of Tonight Reprise + Wait For It
Stay Alive + Ten Duel Commandments
Meet Me Inside + That Would Be Enough
Guns and Ships + History Has Its Eyes on You
Yorktown + What Comes Next
Dear Theodosia + Non-Stop
I would do the same as Angelica for my sister, it’s just something that you do when you love your sibling
13:08 When he says “when is this gonna go horribly wrong “
I say “when Alex says “they thank me Macbeth”
The staging of this songs is so so good, and is get better when you watch it for the second time knowing all the plot, the choreography is just wooow. There is a video comparison titled "A Winter's Ball/Helpless vs. Satisfied" ... the details!! Thank you, I'm so happy in the Hamilton's days of reaction.
YEES
His dissapointment at the "Ladies"-
When he said he was worried, *yeah you should be*
The look on your face at 15:19 is the reason you needed to do all three of these songs together. I have watched other UA-cam's do them separately or out of order and the had trouble understanding what was going on in satisfied
I have never been as attracted to someone as I was watching YOU watch Satisfied. Feeling all of the emotions this song brings forth, and so eloquently speaking them. Kudos! Unquestionably in my top two of this show. No spoilers- but you have not yet gotten to my favorite.
I would love if you could react to Natasha Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812 and Hadestown, both amazing musicals, the first is an adaptation of a fragment of War and Peace and the second is a reimagining of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice set in the great depression with Hades as a factory owner
I literally cannot wait for non stop, I'm so exited to see him react to it
It didn’t take two weeks to get a letter, in cities there was mail delivery more than once a day.
Two weeks was the length of time between when they met and when he came to propose, so much faster than modern courtship.
If your interested in more Oversimplified, I would suggest checking out their video "The War of the Bucket", it goes in-depth with the complicated politics of the Holy Roman Empire, and the power struggles between the Emperor and Pope, but with all that awesome Oversimplified humor.
I'm also gonna suggest the band Sabaton again, as I would highly suggest checking them out, with their songs like "Screaming Eagles", "Stormtroopers", and "Race to the Sea" being some of my favorites.
(also great content, keep up the great work!).
Love your reactions, so glad you’re loving it! Can’t wait for you to finish, AHHHH!!!
watching you react is the best part of these videos
Man, you have no idea how tickled I am to watch your reaction to each song and how one blends right into the other! It's June and you did this a month ago but I'm having fun with this NOW and I can't help writing my reactions even though you're more than well aware of how this musical plays out by now! Just havin' a good time with each of these videos and so glad to be watching your reaction to each song!
Subscribed. I appreciate that you have just the right mix of commentary and silence. That's rare and indicates, to me at least, that you're actually paying attention and commenting only when you've found a relevant thought. Every one of your previous "Hamilton" reactions have been a joy to watch. Keep it up.
Satisfied is probably one of the most powerful songs in the show, because like My Shot it does show up for some small segments later, and oh boy does it come back strong. If I had to rate how hard each time hearing it throughout the musical is, this one feels the weakest, at least to me. That's saying a lot, because this song is pretty much a musical masterpiece fueled with emotions. Those emotions only hit you harder the further into the musical you get.
Anyways, next up should be Story of Tonight(Reprised) and Wait For It.
Then the video after that is looking to be a weird one cuz you're basically entering into the climax stages of act 1, and every song basically flows as one tightly knit series of events. You could probably get away with doing two four song videos, then cap off act one with a single song reaction to the Act One finale. That or you could do 4 songs, then 3, and then cap off Act 1 with a 2 song reaction.
I dunno, but either way, Hamilton Week going strong. If you think you're addicted now, just wait.
"She's crushing it, by the way."
Must run in the family.
One thing to keep in mind is Phillip Schuyler ( the dad) was one of the original Major Generals of the army. Really underrated in my view because he was a much better admin guy than field general. But it was HIS strategy that defeated the British at Saratoga. Horatio Gates swept in at the last minute to steal the glory
Loved you reactions today. Amazing how you got so many things from the contrasting emotions in Helpless-Satisfied. You even anticipated Angelica's feelings... Cool.
I just saw this today at the fox theater and honestly I was in love hyper ventilating and all I can say is that the chemistry was what made this feel so real
Coming back to old videos ans hearing "is there gonna be another duel?" Gives me chills. But I'll leave you to wonder. :)
The most amazing series of three songs/scenes in the entire play, I feel.
seeing your face the entirety of the start of satisfied just anticipating was one of the funniest things I've seen in a while, oh BOY
Love this reaction! Helps less and Satisfied are two of my favorite songs in the play!
For the next video few videos I recommend doing two songs per video
1st video: The Story of Tonight (Reprise) and Wait For It
2nd video: Stay Alive/Ten Dual Commandments
3rd video: Meet Me Inside/That Would Be Enough
All these songs flow into each other and I think this is the best way to smoothly break them up without watching them all grouped together!
Here for it buddy! New fan of your reactions 🎉😂❤
I've done this in my head before, so this is helpful to get them out, Act 1 is easier to break into pieces than Act 2.
Story of Tonight Reprise and Wait for It
Stay Alive and Ten Duel Commandments and you could do That Would Be Enough too, or you could start the next one with it.
Guns & Ships (make sure you have the closed captioning) History....and then Yorktown where you think you are done but aren't, What Comes Next
The Dear Theodosia and Non Stop, that one you will have trouble clearing with UA-cam.
Then, I think What'd I Miss can be on its own because its awesome and you will have some questions.
That's enough for now, I presume people will catch if I missed any.
hi! You forgot meet me inside, which is directly after 10 duel commandments. It should be grouped together with it I think :)
@@awesomesqush. I always forget that isn't just part of 10 Duel Commandments.
What Did I Miss is the opening of Act 2
@@awesomesqush. i think? SAZED!!!????
Another great reaction! I was jumping on my seat every time you talked about possible drama with the sisters, you weren't far off! Satisfied is mind blowingly good, that rewind sequence had me screaming the first time I saw it. I just need to send some love to Philippa Soo because she sings Helpless SO BEAUTIFULLY, it's my fave songs to listen by itself when I'm not jamming to the whole Musical album.
Also, you wondering what is going to went down in the rest if act 1 and act 2... I'm just going to say you definetly should buckle up 🤭
As for the next songs, "The story of tonight (reprise)" and "Wait for it" should really go together. Can't wait for the next Hamilton day!
I wish I could have recorded my face while watching Hamilton for the first time, last week 😅 omg I'm so obsessed with these songs... (but the first time I cried watching Satisfied was now, with your reaction video)
Thank you YoBGS, you gave the reaction I was expecting as you began "Satisfied."
I love the choreography in Satisfied! I think the use of retrograde and playing with tempo off of the Helpless choreography is brilliant
Best 'Satisfied' reaction ever! Thank you for appreciating Angelica's internal turmoil so deeply!
Lol me waiting for you to get to satisfied after you mentioned the rotating stage.
Hercules as ring bearer is perfection!!
You are part of my tribe I think…video games, Hamilton, appreciation of the art of music and lyrics…I bet there are more. Glad you are enjoying it.
We are coming up to one of my top 3 songs and I CAN NOT WAIT the next two songs really work well together
I’m so ready for this
Nice can't wait till next time
"When is this all gonna go horribly wrong"
Just you wait my guy, just you wait...
Ok, when I sing the rap part in this song, or in any song for that matter, I take a small breath if there is a big enough gap between lines. Like “It’s a dream, and it’s a bit of a dance *small breath in* A bit of a posture it’s a bit of a stance *small breath in*”. That’s how I do it, but idk about how they do it onstage. They might have a different way.
I am now looking forward to your reactions to Hamilton every week! Please keep enjoying Hamilton! Maybe as we get towards the end, it could be a live stream?
Totally! If I can watch it on Twitch I will, I’m just a little paranoid about Disney DMCA ovviously
That would be awesome. Even if you can’t show the video, you could give out time stamps? It would just be great for you and us have your reactions as everything comes together. ☺️
Satisfied is definitely my favourite song. It's super interesting watching the choreography for it and Helpless beside each other. if you get a chance, you should look up one of the versus videos.
You should do “story of tonight (reprise)”with “wait for it” and “stay alive”, “ten duel commandments” and “Meet me inside” together. (Just a suggestion)
Perfect! I’m making a note of this so I know for the next couple!
I have been waiting for satisfied
Me too! It's the one I always look for in a reaction.
I always wanted to know what Daveed says to Jasmine at the end of Helpless to make her react like that as Peggy as they're coming down the aisle, because it's great...
Can’t wait until you get to guns and ships and battle of Yorktown! So glad I found your channel!
Hamilton had unspoken rizz
he's the og rizzler
After you’ve watched Satisfied, it gives a whole new meaning to the lines from Helpless “laughing at my sister cause she wants to form a harem - I’m just saying if you really loved me you would share him”
Also, "Angelica tries to take a bite of me"
Cant wait for rewind
Nevermind
You knew lol I expected satisfied to be a surprise but you knew
Don't sell yourself short! You would have been just my type back in the day when I was doing the radio thing in the 80s and 90s. Plus, I never stopped being a gamer girl. I loved your take on Hamilton. Now, how to not tell my husband that I have a crush!
Haha this just made my day, thank you so much! I'm YoBGS on pretty much everything so you know where to find me!
Lol it’s historical canon that Alexander Hamilton was a stone cold fox, I mean just look at his 10 dollar bill portrait 🤤 so there was really no other way for LMM to accurately write it 🤭
When you realize Satisfied is a flashback to Helpless…🤯
I love Hamilton so much and I watch all reaction videos. Had to stop this one in the middle 🫤🫤😑
Satisfied actually rocks my universe. She is incredible
Not suckers for revolutionaries, just Hamilton.
Satisfied, otherwise known as "How to win a Tony in five minutes".
Here’s my advice on how you should listen to the next couple of songs in the soundtrack:
The Story of Tonight (reprise), and Wait for it, together
And Stay Alive, Ten Duel Commandments, and Meet me Inside together
and That would be enough, by itself (its a lot to take in)
You could also listen to That would be enough in the same video as the previous three, but it would be a pretty long video
Edit: actually you’ll probably have to get used to listening to 4 songs in one video. You could listen to That would be enough by itself, but the four next songs (Guns and Ships, History…, Yorktown, and What comes next?) together because it all kind of flows together
Afterwards you should listen to Dear Theodosia+ Laurens interlude together. Even though Laurens interlude isn’t technically on the soundtrack, it’s an important point in the storyline
Non-stop should be listened to by itself, because honestly it’s amazing
That’s it for Act 1 :D
Satisfied!!!my favorite ❤️❤️❤️❤️oh about the first song if the second act!!!!!!sooo goood😅😅
"I'm not saying I have a favorite sister, but I have a favorite sister"
If you watch carefully, you can see that the entire male ensemble has turn Hamilton to stop looking at Angelica, but to look at Eliza.

Here you can see her leaning backwards near the ends of her lines, something you tend to involuntarily do when you’re singing without enough breath, so the answer to your question of “where is she breathing” she’s not. Same with My Shot, Lin wrote very little breaths into the song so these two are very difficult to perform
Angelica’s actor (blanking on the name) is incredibly talented, you’ll rarely ever hear anything less than amazing with her, not to mention the amazing rapping *and* singing
