Jane: "JUST SAY NO!" LOL I think that's everyone's reaction when they first hear this song! Ugh the first time I heard this song I cried because I was so mad at Alexander and so hurt for Eliza.
The worst part for me is that the song is so good i find myself humming along and dancing then im like NO! This is actually terrible. Damn Lin Manuel Miranda's amazing song writing skills
Not 100% correct, but I'm pretty sure that James Reynolds forced hamilton into paying him to [phac] his wife by threatening to starve Maria Reynolds' daughter. (Again, not 100% sure). So Maria is kind of the victim here. Also, in 1793 she was able to divorce James with the help of Aaron Burr.
@@ezkoria9017 listen I also would have liked to take the break but Alexander reasoning was actually true. The country is still a baby back then not to mention the workers didn't have a lot of the comforts jobs give us now like health care. Not mention he didn't plan to cheat with her. The first time at least
Hudson Beal Angelica in real life was already married when they met, so that is also a big reason why they never went for each other and were more of mental soul mates of sorts.
@@blue-eyeswhitekirbo2543 Also a little trivia fact: Angelica's husband John Barker Church actually fought a duel with Aaron Burr in 1799 _(Hamilton died in 1804, five years later);_ both Church and Burr threw away their shots in that duel.
@@blue-eyeswhitekirbo2543 At the time, the two were rising names in the Manhattan banking business, having just recently co-founded the Manhattan Company Bank _(one of the companies which eventually merged to become the modern JPMorgan Chase)_ - Burr challenged Church to a duel when Church accused him of taking bribes in exchange for political influence.
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS REACTION AND I WAS RIGHT. WORTH IT. ...I can't wait for their reaction to the Reynolds' Pamphlet. And Ziksua's Burn. And the Room Where It Happened.
It's funny that such a smart man who thought the most important thing was being seen as great by everyone and leaving behind a legacy was stupid enough to cheat on his wife! the worst thing is this is the one hamilton song that gets stuck in my head when i Don't want it to. it's a really uncomfortable song to be in your head at work 😂 it's such a catchy tune though like damn i understand Jane's anger. it hits me kind of personally as my awful father was a cheater! and while i don't forgive him and shouldn't forgive Hamilton, he is a very important part of American history. This musical really shows him as human, though. All of these historical figures, while they've done good for our country, they were also real human beings and they did some bad shit. They made big mistakes and terrible decisions just as people continue to do today.
@@janeandjvmusic1988 My parents were divorced very shortly after I was born, so luckily I didn't really have to deal with it (thank goodness) but it did affect me and especially my mom. But she's a very strong person, and she's doing really great. I'm sorry you had to go through that. I don't understand why people cheat. If you aren't enjoying your relationship you should end it instead of cheating on your partner. I'm glad you're in a good relationship now, though. The two of you seem really happy :)
It's called history. I don't want real life figures to be potrayed as perfect like they used to portray them in the past. It's shows you can do great things and still be imperfect.
My two personalities at the moment I learned about the affair and listening to Say No to This: Jane (Absolutely furious at Alex) and JV (Bopping to the music)
The woman who played Peggy played Mary. The man who played John Laurens always plays Phillip. In real life, the actors who are most popular for playing them - Jasmine Jones and Anthony Ramos - are engaged.
It's hard to not be impressed that James and Maria Reynolds managed to scam Alexander. I appreciate the inclusion of the unprovoked "I don't know about any letter!" by Maria, indicating she was a willful participant in the extortion.
When I learned that the show was going to be on Disney+ I was worried they'd have to cut this song out. I mean, a lot of the song is melodically orgasming. 😂
When I first was watching Hamilton I told my husband, " I know cheating was normal in this age so when does it happen with Hamilton?" I then got so into the show that I started to dread the inevitable. "Say no to this" starts playing: No! I want to go back in history and change this! Make this a fanfiction and say no! And the song is good too...I'm angry at a dead historical figure now! 😂
Act 1: Here is the hard working hero who help created America through charisma, determination and wit despite his unfortunate early life. Act 2 : Here is the human being Alexander Hamilton whose life Victories and mistakes were a result of his mentality. A mentality born from the scars that his early years imprinted on him.
Cheating doesn't take away the amazing things he did for his country and people. His flaw was that he was his greatest enemy and sadly it ruined his legacy. But despite his cheating and wrongdoing he was still a phenomenal and rare breed indeed
His amazing things don’t make up for the cheating, at the same time. Like any person - particularly the founding fathers - he was incredibly complicated.
@@charlesedwards2856 Um yes the hell they do, I'm sorry but sex isn't more important than providing stability to an entire country. Cheating is a terrible thing but its only terrible for those parties involved. Its not even your business or anyone elses, he only dropped it to prove he wasn't laundering money
KevinJusticeWarrior this is a straight up matter of opinion. To a vast majority of people, being a decent person trumps deeds done. I am not saying he didn’t do a hell of a lot, he did. I am merely saying being a giant piece of shit (not just the cheating, almost NO ONE liked him who dealt with him, as a person) brings his accomplishments down a notch or two if you aren’t just looking at him from a political/professional standpoint. Think of how bad it was for Clinton in the 90’s with his impeachment when cheating and divorce was pretty commonplace. Now magnify that by going back a couple hundred years. There’s a reason he could never recover, professionally, and took a massive tragedy personally for him to recover his marriage. Like I said, he was incredibly complicated. He did a hell of a lot of good stuff professionally, but personally was shit.
I can’t wait to for you guys to listen to Burn. Can you also watch to “First Burn”? Just so you know Angelica and Alexander has more of a sister-brother relationship.
I know this is old but bit with Alexander in that moment where he cheats back then it was alot more difficult to get out of a always situation +she was manipulating Alex
Lmao I've been waiting for the rest of YT to see this reaction. This reaction was so good, and some of these comments are so funny. Livid Jane is best Jane
"I hate when it gets dark like this." I mean, this is not even that bad. "Take A Break" was the beginning of Alexander, exhausting himself to get his financial plan through, then getting duped in this.
It’s worth mentioning that Hamilton published an admission to the affair himself because he regarded it better than investigations that could have led to discovery of financial crimes (mainly helping his friends do insider trading). The mistress denied it happened and his wife forgave him quickly, both of which may suggest the affair never actually occurred and was just a story to be a red herring, or it could just be that divorce was much less accepted back then.
And it's not just that he lost control and did this... He did this for months, planning ahead of time. And I never know to what extent Maria had any choice in the matter. She probably thought Hamilton was a good man who would be kind to her and she didn't want to lose him.
If there's one thing we all know, it actually was a good thing for Alexander that he ended up marrying Eliza, the more understanding and demure one. Because Eliza burned his letters but if Angelica was his wife she would have set HIM on fire 🔥 🤣🤣
But at the same time what Eliza did was just as vicious. Throughout the play it emphasizes the importance that Alexander places on his own writing (which he equates to a legacy). In a way it’s his “proof” of grandeur and Eliza literally burns what is most important to him, his writing/letters. She knows what will hurt Alexander the most and she doesn’t hesitate to burn it down. She actually mentions how the letters could have redeemed him in her song Burn, but she instead used it against him by eliminating them. She was badass in her own way.
BTW, nobody knows if Hamilton and Angelica had a real relationship; what is _pretty_ clear from their letters is that they loved each other, _probably_ always stayed as platonic though. When he says he was "longing for Angelica" in the music, what Lin wants him to mean is that he misses having Angelica around to talk to; Angelica was someone whose company, intellectually, he much enjoyed. If there was anything else, well, nobody knows.
I was mad too but after listening a couple more times, you fall in love with her voice. Plus you gotta understand, he never loved Eliza, at least not really romantically. He used her for her status and it states it during Satisfied, he did grow to like her later but it was late by then and plus he’s cheated many times on her. Maria was the only one he made public.
*_Hamilton,_** Act I:* "F--- yeah, Alexander Hamilton!"
*_Hamilton,_** Act II:* "Yeah, f--- Alexander Hamilton."
Act 2 really is like that until you realize the world was wide enough
clever. You get a like
Jajajaaja basically
After “The World Was Wide Enough” and Who Lives, Who Dies...”: ok, he was a HUGE jackass, but he did a lot to help the country and deserves to be remembered.
Charles Edwards Yes but he still did so many terrible things that the musical doesn’t mention. Dude was smart but yikes...😬
Things Hamilton was told to do:
1) Be true
2) Stay alive
Things Hamilton didn't do:
1) Any of that
He was stubborn ;)
He was also told to talk less smile more
Addison Bub He didn’t do that one either. XD
4. Stay home
Things Hamilton was told to do:
1) be true
2) stay alive
3) talk less smile more
4) throw away his shot
5) stay home
Things Hamilton didn’t do:
1) everything except throw away his shot
(He through away his shot in say no to this)
“I hate it when it gets dark like this. Why can’t we have a nice story for once?”
... he has no idea.
And what did he mean, "for once?" It has been a nice story until now. Well he never really did pay attention to the videos in the first place....
Ghost Pix I think he was talking about plays/shows in general- not necessarily about Hamilton in that moment. Just ‘for once’ in a general scope.
@@Dawn-qi5er Well he must not have seen many plays then
Everything went fine until a precious turtle died 😭
Dana Pearl Yes..
Jane: *Shocked the whole video*
Jv: *bopping to the music*
Lmao came here for this comment
Every time, I can’t handle him.
Her reactions are everything 😂
Lol I was literally both xd
Bopping to the music with an angry expression 😂
@@decristal48 same
This affair was like, THE BIGGEST SCANDAL of it’s time!
Mai this affair was like the first scandal of its time. I enjoyed this play all 50 times I watched!!
Sage Leaf oof, yeah. Let that sink!
@@sageleaf3648 Same thing now.
And one of the best songs from the musical XD
"Take a break" - I love my wife and son.
"Say no to this" - _Well, a mans gotta fucc_

😭😭😭😭😭💀💀💀💀💀💀
Jane: _wtf is wrong with this guy-?_
JV: *This song is lit fr fr*
At first I was like Jane but now I’m like JV😂
And to think..... This is actually Peggy in another dress... 😵💫
Edit: y’all I knew it was the same actor, it was a joke…
Nooooo, it's Peggyyyy ???!!! 😱😱😱😂😂
No not in real history-
XxEndless SøulsxX lmao they have the same actress
WHAT?! -sarcasm intensifies-
When I saw the show I immediately was like Peggy out here matured and lady like
Jane: "JUST SAY NO!" LOL
I think that's everyone's reaction when they first hear this song! Ugh the first time I heard this song I cried because I was so mad at Alexander and so hurt for Eliza.
I mean.... every girl’s reaction, anyway 😂
Hamilton was weak for that just walk out
I first thought oh shit once a player always a player. Then I thought Go HOME
The worst part for me is that the song is so good i find myself humming along and dancing then im like NO! This is actually terrible. Damn Lin Manuel Miranda's amazing song writing skills

And I Oop!
Jajajajan he should have took the damn break jajajaja
Froylan Martinez IKR!? Oh well.. Past Is Past.

The first time at least
@@CookiesAreNoice yeah i know, It was just an expresion
"What happened to the sister is wrong".
Wait until The Reynolds Pamphlet. Angelica straight up was angry at Hammy.
Congratulation is even better to see Angelicas anger !!!
Froylan Martinez Oh yeah! How can I forget!? They should react to it after The Reynolds Pamphlet or something.
And First Burn too! Those sisters really did roast ham
Fränk Cmptn Burn and First Burn UwU
Yeah. That’s how we reacted too.
LuminaryPrism75 Relatable -_-
Angelica's sacrifice was for nothing.
*THANKS A LOT aLeX!!!!* 😑
With Angelica he saw a kindred spirit, but he never really went for it

"Say No To This" aka "The day Alexander ruined his life"
And now... The Reynolds Pamphlet... Have you read this?
I cant wait until they react to that one!
I love it!! Jane is absolutely horrified while JV is amused and trying his best to suppress a smirk! Lol
Me throughout this song: OF COURSE YOU CAN SAY NO..."😑
Unfortunately he couldn't because *Someone in the audience had a sniper trained on him*
“I hate it when it gets dark like this. Why can’t we have a nice story for once?”
...It's called reality, JV.
Say no to this; the song where EVERYONE gets mad at Hamilton.
The Random Person I almost put a dent in my desk yelling: JUST SAY YESN’T
Much Later in the musical you might feel bad for Hamilton
With Jane, probably not
Good point
Nooooooo. My poor Eliza.
Love how JV is just enjoying the song while Jane is so done with Hamilton 😂
Just appreciate the note Jasmine hits at "if you pay you can STAY!" Still gives me goose bumps.
Her face 😂 she was just as shocked, angry and appalled as I was 😂
He dun goofed
I live for the anger on Jane face 2:50
"A month into this endeavor" HOW LONG WERE THE SCHUYLERS AT THE LAKE UPSTATE?!
I knew the reactions would be hilarious. 😂😂😂
I'm DYING to see their reaction to The Reynold's Pamphlet, omg
Yhup welcome to Act 2
I really love your reactions ♥
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS REACTION AND I WAS RIGHT. WORTH IT.

I LOVE Jane's reaction. So priceless.
"If you pay you can stay" is such a crazy line to me
"JUsT SaY NO!!!"
THAT'S WHAT WE ALL SAID THE FIRST TIME WE SAW THIS!!!!!!!
JV looking to Jane then to the camera like "shit they done pissed her off now" has me laughing so hard. I love your reactions guys.

In one animatic it showed a door in the background when he did the deed to show he could’ve left
When I learned that the show was going to be on Disney+ I was worried they'd have to cut this song out. I mean, a lot of the song is melodically orgasming. 😂
Without a doubt, one of the BEST reactions you guys did!! Jane's face throughout tells the whole story!
Also, can we address the magic of Lin Manuel who made Helpless the song for Ham's wife, but then also brought Helpless into Ham's mistress lines?!
Jane’s jaw dropping to the floor is the entire reason why I clicked on this video. I was not disappointed in the least.
When I first was watching Hamilton I told my husband, " I know cheating was normal in this age so when does it happen with Hamilton?" I then got so into the show that I started to dread the inevitable.
"Say no to this" starts playing: No! I want to go back in history and change this! Make this a fanfiction and say no! And the song is good too...I'm angry at a dead historical figure now! 😂
Jane looks like she's about to slap Hamilton to another dimension and honestly.... He deserves it
Next song in the list is my most favourite, i cannot wait

you guys should react to first burn 🔥 To hear Eliza’s response!
Omg yes, perfect reaction😂 I was like so nervous for this but yeah f*** Alexander Halmiton rn
I can’t wait to for you guys to listen to Burn. Can you also watch to “First Burn”? Just so you know Angelica and Alexander has more of a sister-brother relationship.
Please tell me you guys reacted to congratulations. Sister angelic roasts the hell out of Hamilton
I love that all the other characters are just shouting at him to say no.
reactions to this song are always priceless😭😂
Turns out Peggy was the one who got alexander after all 😎😏
Honestly I just keep going back here because of Jane’s visceral reaction and JV just like whatever I like the beat 😂😂
OMG I am crying laughing this is the best reaction I've ever seen to anything!
They REALLY need to listen First Burn when they finish the musical!!!!!!!
Idk if you know this but
The girl who played Maria also played Peggy
I know this is old but bit with Alexander in that moment where he cheats back then it was alot more difficult to get out of a always situation +she was manipulating Alex

THOSE FACES when the affair starts omg XD
SO GOOD!
Yeah, when you know nothing of the history, this music comes as _quite_ the shocker huh?
Jane's expressions....lol Cracking me up!
Jane's expression this whole video was beautiful 😆
Someone make them watch to the live one please HAHAHAHAHA
She SANG that!!!
"I hate when it gets dark like this." I mean, this is not even that bad. "Take A Break" was the beginning of Alexander, exhausting himself to get his financial plan through, then getting duped in this.
Jane: JUST SAY NO!!!
Clearly she wasn't paying attention to the song. He didn't know how to say no
JUST. SAY. NO.
Every single Hamilton fan and cast member
For perspective of just how much they got out of him, $30 in 1781 is worth $804.62 today, and $1,000 back then is worth $28,637.77.
I love how JV’s reaction is all guys reaction and Janes is all women’s reaction to this.
Remember kids... just because it’s on Disney plus doesn’t mean it’s exactly kid appropriate
Laughing at Jane’s “I’d cut off his junk”. Lol. Me too Jane, same. 😆😂🤣

Everybody talks about Eliza and Angelica's voices but Peggy/Maria Reynolds aint no slouch in the vocals department either.
And it's not just that he lost control and did this... He did this for months, planning ahead of time. And I never know to what extent Maria had any choice in the matter. She probably thought Hamilton was a good man who would be kind to her and she didn't want to lose him.
THEY WERE ON A BREAK!
Oh, that does not apply here...
Don’t worry. The 90s remember. ;-)
