I’m just sayin, that part in “Into the Unknown” where it shifts from a call and response to Elsa and the voice singing in harmony was some pretty choice foreshadowing.

i thought i was an ariana stan, but im really tired of straight artists using sapphic/queer themes in their songs and music videos. it’s pandering and weird, not representation.

Satisfied: Toast to the Groom

Congratulations: Roast to the Groom

Lin really cheated Angelica’s character arc when he cut “Congratulations”. Aside from being the best song in the musical (deleted or not, fight me), it is an important song. Yeah, Angelica gets a few lines in the “Reynold’s Pamphlet”, but structurally, including “Congratualtions” would have been emotionally devastating. It would follow the same pattern of Angelica and Eliza having songs played back to back, hearing their different perspectives on the same event (“Helpless”, then “Satisfied”, then in act 2, “Congratulations”, then “Burn”). Also the forgiveness motif in “Its Quiet Uptown” could have been repeated again in “The World Was Wide Enough”, when Angelica was at Alexander’s side when he died. I know Lin said that he thought the audience would be dying to hear Eliza’s reaction to the Reynold’s Pamphlet being published, he could have either cut down the song “the Reynolds Pamphlet” or cut it all together.

Tl;dr: “Congratulations” was was too important structurally to be deleted in lieu of the “Reynold’s Pamphlet”. We get it, he’s never going to be president.
