音樂劇《Hamilton》
令人為之驚艷的音樂劇！！！
沒想到Hip Hop也能放入這種正式的舞台劇之中，這便是我當年入坑的原因，劇中好聽的歌可以說是一首接著一首，相信總有一首能夠打動小夥伴你們的心XD
歌曲由“林•曼努爾•米蘭達”這位才子負責編劇作曲以及填詞（就是演主角的那一個，Hamilton的飾演者，而Hamilton即美國開國元勳亞歷山大•漢密爾頓。）
一開始，我想說這種關於政治題材的音樂劇肯定很難啃，結果一追之後，直接光速入坑！！！
也無怪乎當初這齣音樂劇一演出便造成轟動，有錢還未必搶得到票，而且有心人還將黃牛票價往高處賣，價格簡直高到離譜，誇張的程度堪比巡迴演唱的大明星(汗
想來在有生之年興許是沒機會看到live了，只好請後世子孫將票燒給我了（淦
以下，私心推薦幾首劇中膾炙人口的歌曲，相信我，聽過之後你們也回不去了（欸）
《Wait for it》
Theodosia writes me a letter every day
I'm keeping the bed warm while her husband is away
He's on the British side in Georgia
He's trying to keep the colonies inline
But he can keep all of Georgia
Theodosia, she's mine
Love doesn't discriminate
Between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
And we keep loving anyway
We laugh and we cry and we break
And we make our mistakes
And if there's a reason I'm by her side
When so many have tried
Then I'm willing to wait for it
I'm willing to wait for it
My grandfather was a fire and brimstone preacher
(Preacher, Preacher, Preacher)
But there are things that the
Homilies and hymns won't teach ya
(Teach ya, Teach ya, Teach ya)
My mother was a genius (Genius)
My father commanded respect (Respect, Respect)
When they died they left no instructions
Just a legacy to protect
Death doesn't discriminate
Between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
And we keep living anyway
We rise and we fall and we break
And we make our mistakes
And if there's a reason I'm still alive
When everyone who loves me has died
I'm willing to wait for it (Wait for it)
I'm willing to wait for it
I am the one thing in life I can control
(Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it)
I am inimitable
I am an original
I'm not falling behind or running late
(Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it)
I'm not standing still
I am lying in wait (Wait, wait, wait)
Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb
(Climb, climb, climb)
He has something to prove
He has nothing to lose
(Lose, lose, lose, lose)
Hamilton's pace is relentless
He wastes no time
(Time, time, time)
What is it like in his shoes?
Hamilton doesn't hesitate
He exhibits no restraint
He takes and he takes and he takes
And he keeps winning anyway
He changes the game
He plays and he raises the stakes
And if there's a reason
He seems to thrive when so few survive, then Goddamnit
I'm willing to wait for it (Wait for it)
I'm willing to wait for it
Life doesn't discriminate
Between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
(And we keep living anyway)
We rise (and we fall)
We fall (and we break)
(And we make our mistakes)
And if there's a reason I'm still alive
When so many have died
Then I'm willin' to-
Wait for it (Wait for it, wait for it)
Wait for it (Wait for it, wait for it
(Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it)
(Wait)
《You'll Be Back》
You say
The price of my love's not a price that you're willing to pay
You cry
In your tea, which you hurl in the sea when you see me go by
Why so sad?
Remember, we made an arrangement when you went away
Now, you're making me mad
Remember, despite our estrangement, I'm your man
You'll be back, soon, you'll see
You'll remember you belong to me
You'll be back, time will tell
You'll remember that I served you well
Oceans rise, empires fall
We have seen each other through it all
And when push comes to shove
I will send a fully armed battalion to remind you of my love!
Da-da-da, dat-da, dat, da-da-da, da-ya-da
Da-da, dat, dat, da-ya-da
Da-da-da, dat-da, dat, da-da-da, da-ya-da
Da-da, dat, dat, da-ya
You say our love is draining, and you can't go on
You'll be the one complainin' when I am gone
And no, don't change the subject
'Cause you're my favorite subject
My sweet, submissive subject
My loyal, royal subject
Forever and ever and ever and ever and ever
You'll be back like before
I will fight the fight and win the war
For your love, for your praise
And I'll love you 'til my dying days
When you're gone, I'll go mad
So don't throw away this thing we had
'Cause when push comes to shove
I will kill your friends and family to remind you of my love
Da-da-da, dat-da, dat, da-da-da, da-ya-da
Da-da, dat, dat, da-ya-da
Da-da-da, dat-da, dat, da-da-da, da-ya-da
Da-da, dat- everybody!
Da-da-da, dat-da, dat, da-da-da, da-ya-da
Da-da, dat, dat, da-ya-da
Da-da-da, dat-da, dat, da-da-da, da-ya-da
Da-da-da, dat, da-ya-da-ah
《Helpless》
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh (hey, hey, hey)
I do, I do, I do, I do (hey, hey, hey)
Hey (hey, hey)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh (hey, hey, hey)
I do, I do, I do, I do (hey, hey, hey, hey)
Boy, you got me helpless
Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit
I'm helpless
Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em
I have never been the type to try and grab the spotlight
We were at a revel with some rebels on a hot night
Laughin' at my sister as she's dazzling the room
Then you walked in, and my heart went "boom"
Tryin' to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom
Everybody's dancin' and the band's top volume
Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine
Grab my sister and whisper, "Yo, this one's mine"
My sister made her way across the room to you (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I got nervous, thinking, "What's she gonna do" (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
She grabs you by the arm, I'm thinking "I'm through" (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Then you look back at me, and suddenly I'm helpless
Oh, look at those eyes, oh (look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit)
I'm helpless, I know (down for the count and I'm drowning in 'em)
I am so into you
(Look into your eyes and the sky's the limit) I am so into you, I'm helpless
(I know) I'm down for the count, and I'm drowning in 'em
Where are you taking me?
I'm about to change your life
Then by all means, lead the way
Elizabeth Schuyler, it's a pleasure to meet you
Schuyler? My sister
Thank you for all your service
If it takes fighting a war for us to meet, it will have been worth it
I'll leave you to it
One week later, I'm writin' a letter nightly
Now my life gets better every letter that you write me
Laughin' at my sister 'cause she wants to form a harem
I'm just sayin', if you really loved me, you would share him (ha!)
Two weeks later, in the living room stressin'
My father's stone-faced while you ask him for his blessin'
I'm dying inside as you wine and dine
And I'm tryin' not to cry, 'cause there's nothing that your mind can't do (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
My father makes his way across the room to you (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
I panic for a second, thinking we're through (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
But then he shakes your hand and says, "Be true" (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
And you turn back to me smiling
I'm helpless (I'm)
(Look into your eyes, and the skys the limit)
I'm helpless (helpless)
(Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em) (Whoo! Helpless) that boy is mine, that boy is mine
Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit
I'm helpless (helpless, whoo!)
Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em (yuh)
Eliza, I don't have a dollar to my name
An acre of land, a troop to command, a dollop of fame
All I have is my honor, a tolerance for pain
A couple of college credits and my top-notch brain
Insane, your family brings out a different side of me
Peggy confides in me
Angelica tried to take a bite of me
No stress, my love for you was never in doubt
We'll get a little place in Harlem and we'll figure it out
I've been livin' without a family since I was a child
My father left, my mother died, I grew up buckwild
But I'll never forget my mother's face, that was real
As long as I'm alive, Eliza, swear to god you'll never feel so
I do, I do, I do, I do
Eliza, I do, I do, I do, I do (helpless)
I never felt so (helpless)
Yeah, yeah
Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em (I'm down for a count and I'm...)
Yo, my live is gon' be fine 'cause Eliza's in it (helpless)
I look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit, I'm (helpless)
Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em
In New York, you can be a new man
In New York, you can be a new man
In New York, you can be a new man (helpless)
