- Notes
- The Off-Broadway version of Hamilton delved much deeper into Burr's life, and this song originally played a much larger role than it now does in the Broadway version. Here, we see not only Burr's love for Theodosia, but also the concern that Philip and Eliza have for Hamilton. Through a few extra lyrics, Lin worked to humanize Burr, Philip, and Eliza, and set up this version of Burr's motivation to challenge Hamilton to a duel. It leads into the cut song, [sn45588 Let It
Go,Go], which has a tune that reappears several times in the musical. - User id of record creator
