Hamilton seems pretty terrible to me. I'll admit, I've never seen it, and I've never sat through any of the song all the way through, but all I've heard from it is terrible. But people seem to like it. What's going on?

I know it's politically controversial in some way, and apparently it's not historically accurate, but I don't care about that stuff. One of the cast members threw a wine bottle at the vice president, the real Alexander Hamilton wasn't hispanic, whatever, I don't care. I'm just talking about the music

Listen to this. It's terrible, right?

I've been in stores where there's been music playing, and I've thought "what is this crap?" and then they started rapping about federalism or whatever and I realized it was Hamilton. My reaction every piece of Hamilton I've heard is immediate revulsion.

andrew lloyd webber wrote a sequel to phantom of the opera where the phantom moves to new york to open a circus as part of an elaborate gambit to win back christine's love. also, the phantom and christine have a secret love child for some reason and the love interest from the original musical becomes an abusive alcoholic.

here's a song: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=drZxxY-h_C0

Alexander Hamilton hated democracy and was one of the main drivers behind the Electoral College because of it. So, if you think about it, Donald Trump being president is his fault.

I wish they would limit themselves to like, 2 or 3 really good songs. I think that would probably be ok. Whoever decided "hmmm you know what this mediocre play with bad actors needs? a whole hour of filler music" was some kind of retard genius though
