Every song in Hamilton is connected... except ONE.
There Are 2 Lines in the Hamilton Songs that I Don't Understand.
What is meant by the lyrics “I wasn’t aware that was something a person could do” in “I know him?”
Most songs are connected to each other. Either by specific lyrics, instrumental segments (sorry, not a music guy, no idea what to call them), even titles.
Alexander Hamilton, A Winter's Ball, Guns & Ships, What'd I Miss, The Adams Administration, & Your Obedient Servant all start with "How Does"
Schuyler Sisters, The Story of Tonight, Stay Alive, & Cabinet Battle have sequels/reprise. You'll Be Back having two.
The World Was Wide Enough "samples' The Ten Duel Commandments.
The Reynolds Pamphlet carries some of Angelica's iconic lines from Satisfied.
The Room Where It Happens samples Wait For It.
BOWABOW samples It's Quiet Uptown.
Heck, Non-Stop samples a crap ton of Act 1. (Hey, that rhymes, nice.)
And many many more connections that I am too lazy to enumerate... But please, have fun in the comments finishing the list.
Back to the point, all songs carry off from other songs. EXCEPT ONE.
That being...
Can you guess?
FARMER REFUTED.
Searched through the whole soundtrack, and no lyrics from this song are repeated, and it doesn't repeat lyrics from previous songs, no instrumental segments, are carried into this, nor are there any from this song that are carried into others. At least not significant enough for me to notice.
You could say the line "For the revolution" could count, but I don't, because it is not said in that specific way in any other song. The line may be common, but it's not like, say "Rise up".
But alas, I am only human, therefore, I make mistakes. So feel free to correct me (politely, hopefully) or to add to any of the lists in here.
