Say No To This - Hamilton - Musician Reaction

Same!!!!!

[@kaitlynthompson5609]

One of my favorite lyrical choices in this song is the use of "helpless". The layer added to the word considering it was first introduced by Eliza when she was helplessly in love with Alexander, and then it's later tainted by Maria Reynolds in the second act during Hamilton's affair.

[@DylanSargesson]

In the workshop version before the "I wish I could say it was the last time.." bit you had Eliza and Angelica out of scene with their "helpless" and "satisfied" motifs

[@kaitlynthompson5609]

@@DylanSargesson That's really interesting! I didn't know that!

[@Whatamidoing813]

After it's ruined by Mariah, Eliza never says "helpless" for the rest of the play

Jasmine's voice really changed from the "and Peggy"

Jasmine Cephas Jones played both Peggy Schuyler and Maria Reynolds. Same with Daveed Diggs played both Lafayette and Thomas Jefferson. Okieriete Onaodowan played Hercules Mulligan and James Madison. Anthony Ramos played both John Laurens and Philip Hamilton.

[@megbkeen115]

This is one of my favorite hidden gems! In regards to the opening of the show: Lafayette/Thomas Jefferson and Hercules/James Madison: “WE FOUGHT WITH HIM” (Lafayette and mulligan fight with him in the war, Jefferson and Madison FOUGHT with him politically.) John Laurens/Phillip Hamilton: “ME, I DIED FOR HIM.” (😢) Peggy Schuyler/Maria Reynolds: ME, I LOVED HIM. (Peggy, as a brother-in-law- “Peggy confides in me”, and Maria as a lover.)

It's always great watching someone react to Hamilton who doesn't know much about the history. When I first watched the musical I was already prepared for the most impactful story beats because I knew the history- but it's much more fun watching someone who doesn't know.

[@JacobRestituto]

glad youre enjoying it!

[@n4l9bx]

One of my favourite things about watching the play is literally everyone standing around yelling NO at Alexander :'D

[@paulmarsden7714]

this is the same actress who play peggy in act 1

[@JacobRestituto]

oh ok!

[@poisecritikal]

@Dawn Scarlet he ask for someone to tell him, how is that a spoiler?

[@reneepope-munro8115]

Also, fun fact, the final line of this song is an homage to the musical The Last 5 Years, where that exact line is sung as cheating occurs.

[@son_of_ottie]

The orchestration is the same as L5Y in that moment as well. The first time I ever heard that I lost my damn MIIIIND! LOL

Apparently whenever they had the teenagers from school see Hamilton they all yelled out no during this part! Same reaction I had lol. Can't WAIT for your reaction for room where it happens Jacob!!

[@JacobRestituto]

I believe it!

[@coryharbour57]

Same! I was in the car the first time I listened to this show and when I got here I was so invested and yelled “dude no!!! Come on!” Haha I was big mad at Alexander.

[@chrisv.h.2307]

Love when your dog says Hi! The pup wants to react to Hamilton, too. "No, Alexander! Bad dog! She is NOT your wife!"

[@MarkvanBeelen]

You hit pause right on her MONEY NOTE!!!!!! Other than that: The last line from Hamilton saying "Nobody needs to know" is a direct quote from The Last Five Years musical song Nobody Needs To Know, and an homage to its genius writer Jason Robert Brown who's an inspiration to Lin-Manuel Miranda. The song is about the male lead cheating on his wife and the orchestration is done with 2 celli and a violin. Therefor the last string motive could also be interpreted as a musical homage to that same song.

[@taylorrae3947]

I love the way you break down music. As someone who barely reads music, I very much appreciate and admire it. Jacob: "Yes, Alexander, Say No To This!" The rest of us: oh yeah we hoped too 😅

[@Goddess_Isis]

Enjoying watching tour reaction videos, one for your genuine interest in the story as well as the music but second as you explain the difference of the sounds/tones in the both ears. I'm deaf in one ear so it's interesting what I'm missing. Thank you 😊

[@JacobRestituto]

actually a tip could be to listen to music in Mono instead of stereo! it would put all of the sounds in the center and you wouldn't miss anything!!

[@allysonaham7190]

FUN FACT: in the original cut version of this song, Angelica and Eliza were going to sing "Satisfied" and "Helpless" in the middle of the song

[@alyssawaters7781]

It's actually 1791 not 1780, 1780 is when the songs 'Winter's Ball', 'Helpless', 'Satisfied', and 'The Story of Tonight Reprise' take place.
