- Musicality presents "Wait For It" from the smash musical "Hamilton" by Lin-Manuel Miranda.
When this was filmed, Musicality was an after-school vocal group from Chicago. Check out our channel for more Hamilton covers and other great music!!!!
Soloists: Ephraim Andrewin, Violetta Chyc, Jane Perez, Axel Sandoval and Ulises "Zazz" Rincon.
Other Singers: Roxanne Andrade, Angie Leon, Anna Huang, Sara Bautista, Diana Cruz, Gerardo Lopez, Ernesto Martinez, Reggie Woods, Philip Xu, Norberto Chavez, and Victor Valdez.
Musicality Director and musical arranger: Michael Gibson
We do not own this song, this cover is for entertainment purposes only. Thank you for watching!
Hey Lin, are you aware you're making history? These kids are among the first to grow and be touched by what your show is doing.
NotEnoughBooks history has its eyes on him
EYYYYYY
CodyZooom you took my comment
Lin Manuel Miranda bear with me, are you away that you're making history? This is the first Broadway musical in a very long time, to touch young people's hearts in a way like this. I intend to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt with my assistant counsel-
Co-counsel, Hamilton sit down. We think that your musical is very good, that's all you had to say.
Okay. One more thing!
Yeaah.... I got a little carried away.
I'm one of the newest
the man who starts out the video has such a beautiful voice. sounds a lot like Leslie Odom Jr.
I'm so speechless!! seriously this whole video is crazy incredible
AND HE HAS AN ADORABLE LITTLE LISP! EEEEE
@@lexic3048
and looks a lot like Chris Bosh
i got chills
too
I love how the singer for Aaron Burr smiles while singing, it's adorable
To me, I interpreted the different soloists as different emotions/feelings of Burr. The first one is the love, the kindness and compassion. The two ladies after are the ones that are confident; the ones holding their heads up high. The dude coming up after that is the envy and anger at Hamilton. The last one is the one that stays quiet; the one that examines everything from a distance. This was a gorgeous cover!
Musicality
400th like.
Had to watch again after reading this comment. Very fitting interpretation. Thanks for sharing
These are HIGH SCHOOL students? Goodnes, y'all sound like bona fide professionals. I'm so impressed!
Quinn Nguyen I can hear a lot of vocal processing in the solos though.
and the powerful vocal emotion that is so necessary for this song is lacking
Oh, yes- I’m “waiting for” the time when high school musicals do “Hamilton”. It’ll come, mark my works, and it will be delightful.
Look up Troy Buchanan high school concert choir please♡ if you're looking for pretty sound
WHAAAA-
Lin would be so fucking proud!!!!!!
thank you!! I'm a member of this group and I,have been trying to get a retweet since this video released and we haven't received a response yet :(
+Tweedlebean I put a video of me doing the soliloquy from The World was Wide Enough, and tagged LMM in it, and still no response myself.
He would along with Leslie Odom Jr.
+Felix Oyola-Rosa I don't know if I'm a bit late, but Lin is ALWAYS on twitter. He favorites the tweets I send to him constantly. Tag him on there! He'll probably favorite and/or reply!
+Sydney Malatesta He's also on Tumblr a whole lot!
I think Lin-Manuel Miranda has said that the true measure of the success of "Hamilton" is if it starts being embraced and sung by kids in high school. Based on this video, I think that promise is truly being fulfilled.
What an amazing cover. Your voices are all fantastic, you're clearly putting your hearts and souls into this, and you've come up with something that moved me just as much as Leslie Odom Jr's brilliant performance. Thank you for creating something this beautiful. Best wishes to all of you for your future.
Oh, it’s definitely embraced by high school kids.
I’m in a high school theatre, pretty much everyone knows all the lyrics
After replaying this video about a 100 times, I still can't over the fact how talented Musicality is. It is such an honor being part of this vocal ensemble.
+Ulises Rincon You're all really talented--keep working hard. You're going places!
+Danny Figueroa I agree 100%
+Danny Figueroa Thank you! The recognition for our hard work and dedication is highly admired.
wow, your group has such a mature sound! you guys blend so well together. it's really beautiful
+Ulises Rincon I cried listening to you sing XD
2:46 "We rise, and we fa-aa-al" love when performers break up "fall" into the three octaves (dnt know if thats the right term, but hopefully someone knows what i mean)
He’s not moving down whole octaves, just a few notes down the scale (5 in “fall”, I think). I think what he’s doing is called “melisma”. I loved it too!
Exactly! It sounds incredible. My favorite part out of the entire video.
Moving down Octaves are like moving down keys lol
the boy in 2:11 has a nice voice
He's one of my favorites
Yes he is axel..zazz voice its amazing too
+Caroline B. agree
Agreed. Fantastic articulation.
What about Ephraim?
ok guys... i just tweeted this at the official Hamilton account and to Lin-Manuel directly... they need to see this... its sooo great!!!
Amazing harmonies!
JonasAlmostFamous I love your channel!
The main guys singing is AMAZING!!!
so many young beautiful people of color just killing it! all the props to y'all sounding like goddesses and gods.
If it wasn't for hamilton having such a diverse cast it wouldn't have been this great. Hamilton is by far one of my favorite musical theatre productions.
The second to last soloist was AMAZING, he should definitely have more solos! He sounds a lot like Burr.
2:46?
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE GUY AT 2:48 AND HIS RUN?!?!?
These kids are incredible. The first soloist is absolutely brilliant.
This is BEAUTIFUL. The guys who sang Burr's part sLaYeD. And the non-soloists were amazing :)
It's all Burr man
ok so i played this cover and the original song layered over one another and it sounded so similar and so beautiful
+TIFFXRS Oh, wow. Thank you for thinking of this, because they're shockingly perfect together.
gave me chills. Beautiful!
Wow, the first guy has such a lovely voice!!!!
1:40 this girl gave me chills
Fantastic cover. Probably my favourite song of the whole show. Well done!
The first guy, who plays Burr, is AMAZING
Deserves many more views. EXCELLENT.
Already posted to Tumblr (3 likes and growing), and I think I posted it on Facebook, too. ;) (Former music teacher, yo. Praise for having an engaged ensemble.)
+Musicalityification It's blown up on Tumblr. It's had close to 500 likes and reblogs in less than 24 hours with several people linking it to Lin-Manuel so he might notice it. One of the former Musicality students even found it by random across her dash. How cool is that? Just the start of your accolades. :)
+Musicalityification Oh, that's too kind. I've been proud to be (a very, very small) part of your success. If not me, someone else would have found this video, and you would have come out with the same result. For me, it's been a real education on what viral marketing actually is. I get no less than 200 notes a day on reblogs and likes daily, usually more. People are having discussions about the musical, your school program and how great they think your students are. To quote a different song, you've "blown them all away." Cheers and praise. Let your students know.
These kids are awesome. This looks like both teaching and parenting done right.
Thank you for keeping Musicality alive and always striving to be the best that you can be! Improving each year is a huge goal here. Thank you for making me smile at all the videos, reminding me of all the beautiful moments I spent on that stage with the amazing people I shared my musicality/high school days with. Mr. Gibson, who has inspired every person who's been a part of this group, thank you for believing in all of us, when in moments we didn't believe in our selfs. You kids are amazing!
The guy who sang Aaron burrs part is AMAZING
Lin Manuel Miranda would be so proud to see this.. wonderful job!
This is why shows like Hamilton are so IMPORTANT, this is BEAUTIFUL and I can't wait to see what all of you keep doing with your talents
This is the best cover so far that anyone has ever done.
You are very welcome!
I KNOW RIGHT IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL
YEP
Would you ever consider doing this song for Round 2 on AGT?
***** Oh, I understand
I was blown away by this whole thing. These were some of the first people to do a medley of Hamilton and it makes me smile.
damn you, onion cutting ninja 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
(also, 72 people were not in the room where it happened)
You sound better than most professional singers. Awesome work! 20,000,000/10 rating.
we've see it twice - nailed it. sound, feeling, effect & sound, & casting congratulations, good luck to all of you. you
I'm only five years late for the show!! You guys are absolutely perfect.
This is STUNNING. You guys are so talented!
yo, nice tardis!
THAT HARMONY/SOLO NEAR THE END GAVE ME CHILLS
Great Job! Do more Hamilton songs...please!
I LOVE THE FIRST GUY's VOICE!!!!
that opening soloist is really nice!!
Never have I ever been more proud of you guys. Don't you ever stop singing. This song was simply incredible.
This cover is breathtaking. Brilliant soloists, and the ensemble work/harmonies was amazing too. Subscribed!
Blown away by the two male soloists!!
But all of you are fantastic, keep living your dream!
I was looking for the original from the musical, but this caught my eye and I clicked on it. It was probably the best decision I made today. This is such a good cover with amazing harmonies. I love to sing and this inspires me. Great job! :)
2:45 fave bro the two ladies were amazing and that little one in the middle of the song with the solo has fab hair
Oh my goodness, y'all did an amazing job!!!
The "What is it like in shoes" guy at 2:09 is so good! He touched my heart.
It would be amazing if they did this song on AGT.
Keep up the good work (:
Only thing missing is a jam-packed audience losing their minds. WOW !!!
Wow, this is amazing! Gave me chills, just like the original recording!
***** Well you deserve it!!!!
I've watched this over and over. So inspiring. I dream for a "right hand man" cover.
ok and Leslie Odom Jr. seriously guys... incredible... so impressed!!
+Musicalityification YASSSSSS!!!!
+Musicalityification what's your twitter handle... I'm gonna follow you guys too... :)
Musicality totally inspired me on America's Got Talent!! From the Wonderful Teacher to all of those Amazing Kids! You are All Awesome!
Theodosia writes me a letter ev'ry day.
I'm keeping her bed warm while her husband is away.
He's on the British side in Georgia.
He's tryin' to keep the colonies in line.
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.
I'm willing to wait for it.
Wait for it Wait for it
Wait for it 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
Wait for it Wait for it
Wait for it Wait for it
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.
I'm willing to 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 and we break
We fall 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- 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...
WOW!!!!!! THIS IS AMAZING! I saw your "The Voice" audition and it made me search for more of your music online. So glad I found this! The harmony is amazing and beautiful, but the passion in your faces and voices are what brought tears to my eyes. Never, ever give up on your dreams. We all have struggles, we all have obstacles, allow them to help you become stronger and reach goals you never dreamed of. Bless you all and keep it up!
saw you all on America's Got Talent Tuesday 6/7/2016! Recognized you right away. May you go far!!!
I'm from England, In my mid 20s, I came to NYC and Watched your Show Hamilton, You all have a lot of Talent, the Show might have cost me a lot but it was worth every $ Spent, It may be 5 months since I was in the USA, but I am still listening to this song, and It is a show that I will likely remember for a lifetime so thanks, I will be listening to your voices for a very long time to come, you all should be Proud.
This group is off the hook when it come to Hamilton.
Still wanting the radio mix of this song, but this is none the less beautifully done. Bravo to you lot.
How are these American high schools so talented? Must be dedicated teachers. If anyone says Glee is unrealistic they need to just have a look at you guys to show how much talent there is in schools with the right opportunities and guidance x
I hope years on these kids are still performing and still being the talented people they are.
OMG MY GOSH YOU GUYS ARE AMAZNING!!!!!
I refuse to believe that this is not a professional theatre company performing this. These people are fantastic!
PLZ DO DEFYING GRAVITY OR I BELIVE!!! From wicked or Book of Mormon.
?Gaming _yes I love the book of mormon
Outstanding! Top notch all around - the performances, the backing track, the video - and great choice of song. Well done!
This is so incredible, I'm in awe of this group, everyone is phenomenal, especially the opening soloist. Amazing job to everyone in the group
Has Lin heard this??? It's absolutely beautiful
This is fantastic! And I'm so happy to see the impact Hamilton is making on people, to the point where all you wonderfully skilled people create this amazing cover.
This brought me to tears. It was truly beautiful.
This is from high school students?! Amazing.
My ears hear what sounds like a chorus of angels. Every voice is so distinct yet so smoothly blended in. Every single person apart of this is breathtakingly talented. Bravo
That is a nice song and you guys sang it well.
I can't stop listening to this. You guys are fantastic.
This is a phenomenal cover! One of my favorite songs from the show too! You guys should be very proud of yourselves!
So beautiful, I have chills.
I went to the wrong high school... this is so great.
Just discovered this. Man, the pure passion and the raw energy from those kids. Well done!
that was amazing!!!!
0:00 to 3:16
Now that's beautiful.
This needs to get to Lin. I have chills. I just sent it to him from both of my tumblr accounts, and I'll tweet it to him the next time he's online! This is AMAZING!
Amazing.. INCREDIBLE. Here I am in a coat, sweats and blanket by a fire and I STILL was covered in chills! Truly incredible.
Holy crap, that was reeeally good.. Brand new fan here, people! Big cheers & +1s.
AMAZING!!!!!! I actually teared up! Oh my goodness! So much talent! You guys are awesome!
Wow! What a talented bunch of kids! This is awesome! =D
I think... I've fallen in love with these voices
+Musicalityification It's the truth, I convinced my rock band to do this and now we are. Two of our best background singers and myself are splitting the song on piano and cramming as many harmonies into it as we can. Thank you for the inspiration, my dear sentient being.
Can you sing a Hamilton song on AGT because that will make me really happy.
I literally screamed when you said you are looking into it because I'm a huge Hamilton fan.
SAME!!! Pleaseee sing Hamilton on AGT!! That would literally make me the happiest person on the planet
And btw, you've been doing AMAZING!!!
Agreed. My life would be completed if Musicality did a Hamilton song. They would earn 10 votes from each 4 methods from me.
You guys are absolutely amazing. 4 years of nationally competitive concert and show choir and I never saw anything as genuine and beautiful as this. Individually and as a group, you're seriously going to great things!
Speechless. I thought the cast album was amazing. You all should be so proud of your work. Great work!! This is why we have arts in schools!!!!
Simply outstanding ... the intensity of this performance brought tears to my eyes. A fabulous interpretation that stays true to the original. What really remains (I've watched it 3 times now) is the distinct impression that every one of these young people have been deeply touched by the power of this song - and the entire score. Passion is the thing that is missing from so much of life these days. It is so rare to see it exhibited, and those performances are the ones that stand out.
Hey I just saw y'alls appearance on AGT ... fabulous. You guys really rock.
Incredible job!! Love it!
That was so beautiful and so well done! Congrats!!
damn the first guy voice kinda like Leslie!!
Damn the guy at 2:22 has absolutely stunning vocals. As does everyone else, but idk, his voice just... stood out.
y'all are fantastic. emotive and engaging! i especially love the diversity of your ensemble. you're doing the original cast of hamilton proud.
I wouldn’t be surprised if these guys are the people in broadway 5 years from now, this is genuinely mind blowing.
nice cover ladies and gents. first cover of Wait For It I have been able to watch all the way through. Also, the production value of the video was great too. You all keep singing and who ever did the video keep producing.
These covers are so beautiful. SO MANY TALENTED PEOPLE
I saw you on AGT and in the comments here of your Hamilton cover. Your awesome....new subscriber here
Musicality...how come i didnt hear about you before now. Now this give me the chills. Awesome awesome job guys. Axel...that voice is OMG!!!
