This is my favorite song in the whole play. It perfectly showcases the differences between Hamilton and Burr. Both are orphans but Hamilton comes from nothing while Burr comes from privilege. Burr plays the game the way it's suppose to be played. Carefully weighted decision. Always being sure your next step doesn't set you back further than you started. Hamilton however, has NOTHING to lose. He's constantly going head first into risky decisions. Relying heavily on his talent and passion. Taking hard stances on issues and being vocal about it. He does all of this and SKYROCKETS past Burr. This mindset eventually leads to Hamilton's downfall and death at the hands of Burr.

This is a fantastic song! Both the words and the way they're delivered made me feel empathy for the antagonist even if only for the duration of this song. Leslie Odom Jr. is a powerhouse!

Unfortunately I knew too much about history before the musical came out to sympathize with Burr, but man, if any song could have done it, this one could have.

He is the real star of this play. Diggs is my favorite, but Odom absolutely carries every scene he is in. He conveys emotion to the point where it infects you and you feel it with him.

@@ms_scribbles I read up on the stories of each of the main characters that I didn't know much about (Hamilton, Burr, the 2 Schuyler sisters, Lafayette & Laurens) because that's what I do any time a movie or show gets me enamored with a moment in history. I knew Burr was a real life bad guy, but after reading about him I was surprised they made him such a sympathetic character in the play.

One of my favorite of the 47 songs in Hamilton! Gives great insight into why Aaron is seeming to “wait” for everything. The double meaning of wait as in needing to or purposefully. And the slight lyrical change from Love doesn’t discriminate to Death doesn’t discriminate to Life doesn’t discriminate represents every area of his life in ONE song! Lin’s lyrical genius shining thru.

This is my favorite song in the show because it gets to the heart of Burr’s character. “The room where it happens” does to but not to the sentiment this song has. This song is his “I want song”. From a narrative standpoint, Burr is my favorite character of the show. He seems to be like any one of us. He wants to make a difference but struggles with the timing of when he can. He is always so close until his foil, Hamilton keeps sweeping in with his charm and wit. No one even tried to listen to Burr, again from a narrative standpoint. Cannot speak from a historical perspective. At the end of the show, he just wanted one thing. Hamilton’s vote. His vote= respect. He couldn’t even get that. Also the protecting of his parent’s legacy always get me. It always seems impossible. Again, he gets so close but it always slips away. This is something I and many people can relate to versus Hamilton. Hamilton is who we strive to be while Burr is who we are. I am not saying that as a bad thing. Both (minus the murder) are people who can aspire to.

I don't think you should do a single reaction to another Hamilton related song until you see the entire musical. It really is fantastic. As with anything, there is some historical facts they play with but damn it is a solid show and the cast absolutely kills it. And nearly every single song is great. This might be the best damn song in the entire show.

That one commenter was right about having to watch or listen to the songs in order since this is a play where the storyline and dialogue is almost 100% told through the songs. It's why you can hear every line of dialogue spoken from the play by just listening to the soundtrack album. There are no breaks in between (even though the album did cut a song that was in the play). But you're also right that you can listen to this song as a standalone and interpret it just the way it is without too much extra context and get it alright. Because this is all Burr's inner thoughts were we hear what he actually thinks and feels for once and he's not interacting with any other characters, you can trust everything in this song to hold up without needing to hear it in order because everyone is hearing all of this info for the first time. So you were all good with this track

YESSSSS you did my FAVORITE Hamilton song! I don't think you have to have seen the play for this one to hit home, I think the feeling of the song is very relatable. But just for context his love, Theodosia, that he sings about at the beginning was married to a British officer and Aaron Burr was a member or the revolutionary army. So definitely a bit of star crossed lovers thing going on there.
