Melodic Mondays: One Last Time from Hamilton

10 Comments

So... I’ve fallen in love with Hamilton. Again. Also, three of the main cast members left Saturday night. Cry with me.

So I’ve already talked about That Would Be Enough (which is still my absolute favorite song in the entire show), but I desperately needed to post about Hamilton because I desperately needed somebody to feel with me because I have re-fallen-in-love at exactly the wrong time. I’m telling you, I have actually cried more times this weekend than I probably have all year (mostly because I don’t cry at all ever--except, apparently, where Hamilton is concerned). Not even kidding. I literally have all the emotions and no outlet and I really don’t know what to say to end this post because frankly I’m a mess.

Here, let’s all listen to It’s Quiet Uptown together (but only if you’ve actually listened to the entire musical. Otherwise... major spoilers).

If you love Hamilton, feel this pain with me and let us hum the heartbreaking tunes as one over the blogosphere. If you don’t love Hamilton... well, one, please get saved. Two, what’s a book/movie/show/anything-else-you’d-like-to-tell-me-about that ripped out your heart and tore you apart, yet was still so spectacularly magnificent that it forced you to go around shoving it in everyone’s faces with your mangled heart still hanging out of your chest by fragments of its shredded tendons (graphic, I know, but I did say I was a mess ;) ). Can't wait to hear from you guys, and I'll see you in the comment section!

Well I haven't actually watched it, but I have heard some of the songs and about every three weeks, I get parts of the songs stuck in my head because my older sister goes around singing them. It drives me crazy!

1) Does a heart even HAVE tendons?
2) I have just become a hamilton fan and the tears were coming at 'blow us all away' I survived though. I can't choose a favourite. One last time is good, but I really like Alexander Hamilton and A Winter's Ball and Who Lives Who Dies Who Tells Your Story and all of them basically. Hamilton is SO GOOD I can barely even. HALP (that misspelling shows how much I need even-ing help)

I still haven't listened to the whole thing, but I love all that I have heard.

It's kind of sad to see them go, huh? But, they're moving on to great things! That's pretty good to me. :)
