The "enter me, he says in parentheses" line is also another subtle musical theater reference to stage directions. In a script, there will often be lines such as "Enter *insert character name* " when a character comes on stage, and those lines are often in italics or parentheses to denote that they are not spoken but merely directions. Here, Hamilton is speaking the "stage directions", which shows off his ego. But yeah, as another comment said, this show has so many references to musical theater in general, as well as to specific shows and hip hop songs/artists.
Enter, stage left, pursued by a bear.
"Act 2 isnt coming out anytime soon"
Act 2 coming out in a few days
And i am not home and can't watch it when it comes out nooo

*so scared its going to come out while im at a party*

The great thing about Hamilton is that the more of the musical you listen to the better it gets, the awesomeness stacks
The slow realization of lyrics being relevant later,such a good hook and why tons of people fell in love with it
I'm so glad that you both are continuing these videos together - my favourite duo. Who knew that when Mortius took you through the Horse and the Infant that you two would become a beloved duo to so many people
this is such a sweet comment omg
WARNING: This is a spoiler for a lyric at the very end of the musical, so don't look at this comment if you haven't already seen it.
I really like that the "woah, woah, woah" motif doesn't get its name until the very end, where Hamilton says "Laurens leads a soldiers' chorus on the other side". Up until that point, we've heard the motif a lot, with enough context to figure out the meaning, but it doesn't get the name "soldiers' chorus" until the very end. Just a neat detail :)
As someone with a complex medical history, (91 surgeries, 4 nearly fatal health crises) "for the first time, I'm thinking past tomorrow" is a really impactful line that for some reason is only just now hitting me. "I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory" is another line that I really relate to. The most recent of those 4 nearly fatal health crises was back in 2017, when I was 17, and I had to be put into a medically-induced coma that lasted 10 days, and I can't remember much about what happened right before the drugs kicked in, but I do know that I looked my mom in the face and said "This time, I'm going to die." Do I regret saying that to her? YES. Do I still believe I should've died? ABSOLUTELY. I had gone septic. I 100% should've died. When they brought me back out of the coma was when things got horrible. Going septic can fuck up your brain and make it do some unpleasant stuff. I hallucinated and since it was shortly after the Las Vegas sniper, I had a delusion that a sniper was aiming at my window. Thankfully, that's the most recent of my medical PTSD. I've been generally healthy since.
(DAMN, I forgot how wordy I can get when discussing my medical trauma. I'm so used to only being wordy with things I'm passionate about.)
How are you now, btw?
@@jonathankennedy1963 Relatively healthy. Physically, at least. In this world, it's unfair to expect anyone to be mentally healthy.
@@disableddragonborn Just checking. Good to know.
@@jonathankennedy1963 LMAO 😂
I think everyone who wasn't an expert on _The Odyssey_ thought "Little Ajax" was a kid. 🤣
No need to call me out...
@@nope6610 I'm no expert, myself. 😅
Can't wait for Casper to hear Aaron's song! He's gonna FREAK!
My brain had to translate to first names. Aaron Burr. My brain called him Burr and I was like “who is this personal bestie of Casper and Mortius?” 😮😶🌫️
@@Smk42217 lol, I wish I was friends with them. They seem really awesome and I wanna be their friend, lol
You pointed out the double meaning of "shot", and that reminded me of something I find interesting that I learned. Apparently, ASL interpreters actually communicate that different meaning in their sign language when interpreting the song.
12:59 "he's only willing to wait for it"
Mortius. I see you Mortius. Oml akhsjaj
After coming from the Epic reactions, I’m really looking forward to hearing Casper’s analyses of not only the vocals and storyline, but also the instrumentals. Accompaniment is a facet of music that I don’t give as much attention as I probably should. I’m usually laser-focused on the singers, so my mind is blown when he picks apart the instrumental and points out its’ implications for the characters and story as a whole. Hope you enjoy the rest of the musical!
Love seeing people come blind to Hamilton at this point in time, and also non-American perspectives because I came in without an American perspective either. So I didn’t know the history at the time and it’s neat to see a similar perspective in that way. Hope you can keep it up!
i have a feeling casper is gonna LOVE non-stop!!
That’s a definite fav of mine.
“Lin Last name” 💀💀
Alexander _is_ the danger. He's reckless and full of trauma that makes him impulsive. He and Odysseus would get along well. 😅
I’m willing to wait for the next Hamilton reaction
yea same man
wait for it -wait for it- WAIT

It's amazing that a musical about the American Revolution is now being performed around the world, including in England. I would've loved it if Queen Elizabeth had attended a performance before her death. She was such a funny woman, I feel like she'd have asked to try on King George III's crown. I mean, she cut a cake with her knighting sword. 😂
i know! i got the chance to get tickets on their international tour here on asia (philippines) after being such a big fan for ages now. it was incredible!
@@klosux I'm seething with envy. 😂
After you've watched the show, it would be so cool if you checked out Howard Ho's analysis of the music and its motifs! It doesnt have to be a reaction video, but if you find yourself looking to geek out about the music and/or learn something after completion, his video essays are a must!
"he's only willing to wait for it" Mortius.
Being in a wheelchair is funny sometimes. You'd think it would make me think "I wish I could do that choreography." but nope. I've watched some of it and immediately thought "Oh, please, I could do that." 🤣 (I then have another part of my brain that is very much the Burr to that Hamilton-esque thought that immediately humbles me.)
Im so so glad to see you getting introduced to one of my absolute favorite musicals ever! I cant wait to see your experience with it!
Hope you enjoy! :)
I saw that little throw in of "He's the kind of person to wait for it"😂😂😂😂😂😂
Omg the little Minecraft drinking sound when Casper drinks from his bottle 😂
23:04 "Farmer Refuted" was the first song that came to mind.
OMG THIS IS GONNA BE SO FUCKING GOOOOOOOD!!!!
I did some quick and very rudimentary revision of the songs, and depending on how you count and separate them they introduce around 10 to 15 separate lyrical motifs in these first three songs alone
Why do they do this to me it took me 4 sagas to find one danger motif in epic now I gotta find 15?!
@CFEntertains
Most of them are very easy to spot or get used a lot!
-Someone who still can't hear all the motifs in Epic
@@CFEntertains I say this as someone who knows very little about music theory, they're extremely easy to spot so don't worry too much, they add so much meaning and connect every part of the story extremely well
This song takes place in Fraunces Tavern, in New York, and it's still open today. George Washington used it as headquarters.
'We're recording this in the beginning of June' And here we are, tomorrow, the thunder-Saga will be premiering, together with remastered troy- and cyclops-Saga.
i absolutely love the way you so quickly board into things and are so immediately attentive and passionate about them casper :] i hope you enjoy your hamilton journey, and im so happy we get to tag along for it
Speaking of similarities between Hamilton and Epic. Hamilton also has their own Polities :) Lovebale charactesrs that keep the Main Character from self-distructing
If you mean who/what I think you mean, how DARE YOU 😭☠️
NOOOOOO shut up
Burr is Hamilton's Eurylochus. When Alexander is getting ahead of himself and about to do something stupid, Burr steps in. 😆
@@jennamurdock8716 :)
Who is the person in question?
"Not willing to take the risks"? Or is he just able to weigh the risk/reward factor of rushing to an opportunity or waiting for the right time?
"Now that we're on my channel now i can say that so far it's *BZZZ*-ing awesome!"
Hmm...
In my opinion, the show doesn't say the years enough. When I was first listening to the album and I heard "The battle of Yorktown, 1781." I was like "WAIT, WHAT?! When did that much time fly by?!" 🤣
VoicePlay's cover of My Shot is like half the length of the original (fair), and they add more "musicality" to some of the rapped parts, singing some of the lines instead. As is typically the case, there is quite a lot of difference between the VoicePlay cover and the original 😄
Alexander is arrogant, but how could he not be? He was so good with words that his community on the island of Nevis in the Caribbean raised money to send him on a ship to New York City to make a better life for himself.
It feels so weird to hear him be called John, because there are a lot of Johns in American history, (John Adams comes to mind) so most people call him Laurens. It also feels weird to call Burr Aaron.
I really wish I were able to go and see this with the original cast when they toured, but man am I so excited to go and see it next month!!
I forget how much the music slaps!
12:58 mortius you really had to slip that one in there huh
6:04 actually they did have a kid on the war, the son of Achilles Neo was 12-13 when he enter the war and also killed many troyans and won the war ro avenge his father which was young too. Laki late 20s or early 30s
I have no musical knowledge/education so it's fascinating to hear you discuss the different musical aspects. Half of the terms you use may as well be in a different language because I don't know music, but it's still interesting to learn.
so excited for your reactions to A Winter's Ball, Helpless, and Satisfied !!
NOT THE RAIN COATS LMAO 😂
loving the start of this hamilton series!! I'm excited to see you keep going through these together is extremely entertaining. I've been having a tough time rn and your videos are taking my mind off this at least for a moment, it's like a vacation :)
Mortius you sly dog with one of those lines about burr
FUDGE YEAH!!!!
it's casper's channel you can say Fuck
@@besthokage7822 it’s the principal of the thing.
One of my FAVORITE SONGS in this musical!! So excited for the rest of it!!
Will be keeping an eye out for ALL of these!
It´s not so in front here but later on notice also the clothing of the characters. In the beginning all the main characters wear white coats (or a white dress) EXCEPT Aaron Burr and then when Hamilton is getting his brown coat on his way to New York HIS story really sets off.
During the Musical they change coats depending on what they are doing and who they are and i can´t say more without spoiler i think
They're all generic people among a chorus of multitudes until their interactions with Hamilton (or Burr, in the case of Hamilton) bring their characters into full color. They only really become important to history when someone tells their story.
(Enter me) IS STAGE SCRIPT HUMORRR
Guy whose only ever seen ‘Epic: the Musical’ watching any other musical “getting a lot of Epic the musical vibes from this show 🤔” (/j)
I feel like the one Hamilton fan that wasn't at all a musical kid. I have no musical talent, and the theater kids intimidated me, because they were the populars. 😂
It would be cool If the watched the animatic movie of this when they finish the whole thing
of course half the vid would have family friendly warning
There is a secret character in the show.
Thx for the reaction
I love love love watching you add new perspective (your thoughts on the instrumental composition) to a show that is so dear to my heart. I look forward to following you through this!
I'm so ready for this journey! ❤️
Once this is finish if able, In the heights is the 1st Musical by Lin before Hamilton happened. So when able please react to In the Heights.
Note/ Spoiler: The movie is shorthanded version of the Play but it still shows the what the main intro on what is thing going to be in.
I am so glad you are reacting to Hamilton!! I have been binge watching your channel and Mortius because i just love the way you two analyze content!! 💜
YESSS YESSS LETS GOOOOO!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Oh I can already see it. He’s gonna fall in love with John Laurens isn’t he? XD
(Careful spoilers in the replies :) )
*Laurens
And I agree!
@@TheCanderemy thank you, names are hard :)
It's Polites all over again. The Laurens Interlude is gonna destroy him. 🤣
@@disableddragonborn can’t wait to see it lol
Not our boy!!!
I think Epic kinda has to be very story-like because it's just the music, so the audience can't visually interpret what is happening, whereas this is a lot more music-focused since it has actual visual performance. Some of the stuff is harder to follow when just listening to the soundtrack, so I was elated when I learned it was going to be on Disney+.
Jorge is Lin's only equal in terms of musical and lyrical genius.
Kinda spoilers...

12:59 ...Mortius...Mortius...you think you're so funny...and yeah, you're right, that was a little sneaky funny
Also, nice reference to my favorite song!
Literally had the same reaction haha I was like okay M you think ur sooo sneaky 😂 these goofy lads love this all sm
I am happy that Casper finally watching Hamilton, but...butbutbut... You should have gone with the Animal Crossing adaptation made by GuitarKnight14 :D
THERES AN ANIMAL CROSSING ADAPTATION????
@@CFEntertains Yes! and it is amazingly done!
ua-cam.com/video/BsfZ8eNuHSg/v-deo.htmlsi=qkZ8F6faLSmr2Qc5
@@CFEntertainsOh ho ho ho Casper you have no idea the lengths musical theatre fans would go to have their definitely illegal recordings of the show not taken down by UA-cam copyright. But yea there's an animal crossing version and it's great
YOOOOOO
Fastest yippee ever

Can someone explain that spoon mascot?
hey Casper, the Patreon link in the video description is not working :/ thanks for the pinned comment, though ^^
Ah I forgor to fix it after the name change - thanks for letting me know ♥️
Caspar were you ever a drummer? You seem to always notice percussive elements foremost and know about drumming technique
I taught myself all the “basic” instruments in high school (including drums) and now I beatbox a ton in an acapella context, so I know my way around percussive elements 🫶
Hiya~
hi
@@CFEntertains IM SO SAD I COULDN'T BE AT THE PREMIER I HAD TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL FOR MY BROKEN ARMM 😭
@@crystalkatsukaoyah.. get well soon, random internet person 😊
Hiiii I was just wondering if you also react to music videos as well b/c theres one that I feel like you would be interested in, especially with the unique animation style, the lyrics, and the instrumental of the song, pretty much all of it haha
Its called Maybe Man by AJR
Idk if youve heard of it or not, hopefully you havent yet. Its a really good song and i hope you would react to it ^^
I do do R/As for music videos asw, Musicals are kinda just taking over my life rn :D
@@CFEntertains I'm sure you already have plenty of music/musicals to watch and react, especially since you just started Hamilton (love Act 1 more than Act 2 imo)
I'm not pushing you to react it asap ofc, I'm very patient. Just wanted to give you something to add to your list is all c:
Mortius just goes on and on won't stop yapping
I wish Mortius didn't talk over Casper so much. I get the desire to explain every detail that he found out over last 8 years, but isn't this supposed to be Casper's first meeting with all these songs, why not let him voice opinions more before explaining all the extra details?
Just say Lin Miranda. Most folks just call him Lin, because "Lin-Manuel Miranda" is a mouthful for a lot of people. 😆
Just say Lin, we know... 😉
😊😊
