Yorktown

This is magical

The Hamilton posts on my dash left me with a vague desire to see the show if the opportunity ever arose. But this. I pressed play, and at a minute and 20 seconds into this video, I paused it, opened iTunes, and downloaded the soundtrack. What the fuck is this. I didn’t ask for this.

THIS IS EXACTLY HOW IT HAPPENED.

I can’t put words to just how much the orchestra loses their collective shit during Yorktown – specifically during Oak’s rap + right after it. Their volume skyrockets, the conductor was headbanging…it felt like my seat was rattling off its hinges with the energy of it.

Yep, this is what sucked me in too. Listen with headphones. Every single time I get goosebumps when they get to “The world turned upside down…”

Okay but this shot of them all holding out their arms without any guns was the most visually stunning and poignant moment of the tonys tbh

I want to say something that I have been scared to say. I am not overly fond of the musical Hamilton. I mean the songs are good, the Tony performance looked awesome. But I don’t understand all the hype when I’m just sitting here like meh.

I didn’t totally get it at first myself, but once I sat down and listened to the whole thing, that’s when it got me. 

That said, if you listen to it, and don’t care for it, that’s okay too, everyone is allowed an opinion, and you don’t have to love something just because it seems like everyone else does!
