I HAVE BEEN LONGING FOR A GIF OF THIS SCENE!!!

[foofoocuddlypoop-loves-you-too]

If Trump sang in Hamilton...

You say the price of my wall’s not a price that you’re willing to pay

I cry at your tweets that you send when you fact check my lies

Why so mad?

Remember we made an arrangement when you voted me in

Now you’re making mad

Remember despite your enragement, I’m your man

We’ll be Great

Soon you’ll see

I’ll send those foreigners back across the sea

We’ll be Great

Time will tell

You’ll remember that I entertained you well

Walls will rise, rights will fall

My money will see me through it all

And when push comes to shove,

I will send a fully armed battalion to remind you that I won

Da dada da da Da dadada dayada Dada da da dayada Da dada da da Da dadada dayada Dada da da da

You say my tantrums are draining and they can’t go on

You’ll be the one complaining when I am gone

And, yes, I’ll change the subject

‘Cause I’m my favorite subject

My smart, successful subject

My big hands, HUGE hands subject

Forever and ever and ever and ever and for the next eight years

We’ll be Great

Like before

I’ll fight the haters and win the war

For my name

For your praise

And I’ll do it till my dying days

When my power’s gone, I’ll go mad

So don’t throw away this thing I have

‘Cause when push comes to shove

I will kill your friends and family to install my version of love

Da dada da da Da dadada dayada Dada da da dayada Da dada da da Da dadada dayada Dada da Every Nazi! Da dada da da Da dadada dayada Dada da da dayada Da dada da da Da dadada dayada Dadada da da dayada

Music Supervisor Alex Lacamoire on Life After ‘Hamilton,’ Recording New Hit Musical 'Dear Evan Hansen’ (Billboard):

[…] How did you know [Dear Evan Hansen] was the project for you?

The first song he played for me was “Waving Through a Window,” and all I know is I heard that and was like, “Sign me up.” Many of the songs he played for me actually are in the show to this day. On the strength of the music, I knew I wanted to work on it. There came a point when we had a meeting after a reading and were discussing the timeline of Dear Evan Hansen, and I had to raise my hand, saying, “Hamilton is coming at just around that time!” Fortunately, they were very cool about making the space for me. When the show started out in D.C., I was able to bring a friend of mine in to help them get the show up and running while I had Hamilton; he kind of held the chair for me so I could revisit that after Hamilton.

[…]

After Hamilton, the music for Dear Evan Hansen must almost feel like chamber music – it’s a fairly small pit, with lots of guitar, piano and strings.

It’s funny, I actually did look at Hamilton like a chamber piece. It was a little more electronic in its chamber-ness. But Dear Evan Hansen is much more chamber-like, in that it’s mostly acoustic piano, not a lot of synth, the strings do carry a lot of the emotion – which, actually, is also a lot like Hamilton. I was told by one of the string players in Dear Evan Hansen who played in both pits that the string parts for Dear Evan Hansen are actually harder! I just love how expressive strings are; they can be very sweet and romantic, but also very aggressive and crispy and staccato when you need. When Justin and Benj write their songs, they actually write a lot on acoustic guitar. That feel was very present in the song variety. It became very much the background for a lot of the songs.

For a long time you led and played in the pit for Hamilton – why did you choose not to for Dear Evan Hansen?

The main decision just had to do with having the chair at Hamilton and wanting to stay there. Before Hamilton, I hadn’t held a Broadway chair since 2009, about six years, and between that I supervised a lot. Supervising gives you a lot more freedom in having a global picture of the show; you’re not tied to the pit, you have the audience perspective, and when you make changes you have a little more time because you’re not also worried about playing the piano part correctly. [Laughs] When Hamilton came along, that was the show I was waiting for to get back into the saddle to conduct full-time. I did that about a year and a half, and my choice to not conduct Dear Evan Hansen was mostly to finish my term there, and also to have that global picture. To have that bird’s eye view. And a little more objectivity. You’re not the lobster inside the pot, where you can’t really tell what’s going on because you’re so in it. […]

Me: did you know that Thomas Jefferson brought macaroni and cheese to America from France and that he was obsessed with making it and nobody liked it but they never said anything about it because Thomas Jefferson, Official Pretentious Hipster Freak was so obsessed with it and no one wanted to ruin his good time

Somebody: who was the seventh president of the United States?

Me: look buddy boy I literally have no idea do I look like a historian to you??
