I hate to say it, but I’m really disappointed. I adore Hamilton, but nearly every change that was made was for the worse.
The original/deleted songs are definitely the highlights of the Mixtape.
Congratulations
is delightful,
An Open Letter
is a lot of fun,
Immigrants (We Get the Job Done)
is good if a bit heavy-handed,
No John Trumbull
isn’t bad, and
Cabinet Battle #3
and
Valley Forge
are fabulous (Of course they are; it’s Lin-Manuel Miranda.)
My favorite track from the original album is Satisfied , and Sia’s cover isn’t terrible. Sia has a great voice and in general her music is okay, but I didn’t like what she did with the song at all. Queen Latifah’s rapping didn’t fit the tone of the song and Miguel sounded half asleep.
One of the best songs from the original is Wait For It. It’s covered by Usher, and all I can say is he’s no Leslie Odom Jr. He changes the rythm at times, which is weird, and pronounces “inimitable” in-i-MITT-able.
Kelly Clarkson kills It’s Quiet Uptown though.

To be honest, I was really disappointed in the mixtape. I did love it when Hamilton roasted Jefferson about his mistresses in Cabinet Battle 3 though

I really have enjoyed it. The originals are of course the main attraction, but Wiz Khalifa’s Washingtons By Your Side is awesome, Wrote My Way Out works on so many different levels, as you said, An Open Letter is just fun , I really like Immigrants and think that the approach was just right, think of it as a protest song and it seems to make sense. Even though I’m pretty sure that Ja Rule is asleep, Helpless still works.
Say Yes to This is... oh man. OH MAN. I’m not sure how it doesn’t rate a mention. And amazingly, Jimmy Fallon’s take on Hamilton as a late 60's psychedelic trip seems to actually work.
I wasn’t sure on listen #1, but by listen #3 I was sold, by listen #5 or 6 I was lost and couldn’t get enough.
dtg11 - is probably on an adventure with Clifford
