- As we prepare for President Barack Obama's final days in office, we celebrate the profound legacy he leaves behind. Today, we look back on Christopher Jackson performing "One Last Time" during our visit to The White House. Teach 'em how to say goodbye. #ObamaLegacy

I hate when I watch Hamilton related videos because then I end up listening to the whole soundtrack.
Rainbow Quartz Love same! Like I could be watching this and all of the sudden think: this doesn't make sense, hmm, I have to listen to the whole soundtrack again.
Lupe Orozco glad im not the only one😂
Rainbow Quartz Love you spelled "love" wrong. ;)
Sheila Hite where?
It was a joke. you said, "I hate when..." and first thought was "Hmm, h-a-t-e is a weird way to spell love." XP
Only lin manuel miranda is allowed to wear jeans and sneakers to the white house.
At least he wore proper clothes at the Kennedy Center Honors
Ben Lutostanski And Jimmy Fallon
Runaway Melody Did anyone see the half bald guy scratch his halfway bald head?? And Lin's facial expressions
Only Lin.
Actually it’s pretty disrespectful, he should have dressed like he was going to the White House.

“Sir, I don’t know what you’ve heard, but whatever it is, Jefferson started it.”
Hamilton’s defense for all of Act 2 😂
" did you cheat on your wife? " Hamilton : " NO JEFFERSON STARTED IT. "

@@mikasasscarf lmao accurate
@@mikasasscarf😂😂😂😂😂
@@mikasasscarfin a way, he kind of did
It's so striking to me how Obama's smiling a little throughout, whereas everyone else (except Michelle towards the end) looks destroyed.
kind of like washington, huh? He was ready to say goodbye.
Idk how they weren’t bawling their eyes out. The song is emotional without its realistic parallel to Obama leaving office. I get a tear in my eye every time I see this video and/ or hear the song. This is one of the best musicals to ever be written by the most genuine man you will ever meet. I’m just in complete awe of the performance. Well done....well done...
Bryanna White : Right? I want to see Hamilton so bad, but my parents, especially my mom, aren’t interested. I’m so mad at them. I’m doing everything I can to convince them. I’m desperate 😂
He’s fucking tired meanwhile everyone else doesn’t care they want him to stay
@@blue_jai2790 are you entering the lotteries?
obama mouthing “wow” when Christopher Jackson’s hitting that final note is POWERFUL
It HITS
IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY
Chris Jackson has the sexiest damn voice ever. Would love to be able to sing like him
Was the best thing
I've watched this video what seems like hundreds of times and get goose bumps 👏every 👏time with Chris Jackson's performance!!! I just can't get enough of it!!
Damn America, you need a hug?
Erik YES!!! 😭😭😭
Erik VERY MUCH SO
Erik PLEASE
That would be enough );
Erika G Yes please *internet hug*
honestly the line that always breaks me: "everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig tree and no one shall make them afraid, they'll be safe in this nation we made."
same literally my favorite part and one of my favorite lines from the whole musical
Sad to say its ironic for some people
and the way he delivers it!!! I JUST SOB.
this was Washington's favorite verse, I read that he quoted it at least 50 times in his letters
@@hcroussette Chris's favorite verse, 'cause Washington had at least a hundred slaves 😂😂
i bet chris jackson never hit a false note in his entire life this man is unreal
He must have hit a false note thousand of times in practice to be this good
@@maximussaktish ikr his voice is so beautiful 😢
On top of that, he can convey so much emotion in his voice as well
Ari if god had a singing voice it sound like Christopher Jackson

Hun, Lin could show up in a towel and still earn respect
@@carlylerunfalo3594 Pastel Penguins is my saying. lol
shout out to the backup singer who started crying

lynnea marie that’s tony nominee Ariana Debose! She played the bullet.
She's in Spielberg's West Side Story too. Can't wait to see her as Anita
@@rosamariamartinez3287 she killed Hamilton confirmed!
"She played the bullet" made me laugh 😂
Oh my god while watching the bullet fly I was totally internally applauding because the amount of core strength that must have took
Christopher Jackson is extremely underrated. I am so grateful to Hamilton for introducing me to this tremendous voice and talent.
You if love Hamilton listen to In the Heights, he his also in that.
Did you know he's the voice of Moana's dad?
So Talented and Underrated...Chris Jackson Baby!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😊😊😊😊😊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
His voice is so beautiful. I love love his verse on Guns and Ships
Not me seeing him in the show Bull Before finding out he was in Hamilton
IS ANYONE THINKING ABOUT HOW HAPPY AND CUTE AND SMILEY LIN IS AT THE BEGINNING ONCE HE FOUND OUT JEFFERSON RESIGNED
chemicalsatthedisco 666 YES
YEEEESSSS!!! HE'S SO CUTE😍😍😍
So pure
I'm not even american, but when they start singing "George Washington is going home", I felt that
I think, as humans, we all did
Another part that feels aimed to Mr. Obama is "history has her eye on you". So true
I felt this whole song and I’m aussie
Same
Catten that’s just the power of Lin’s writing. He’s a true genius.
Whenever Chris Jackson is feeling down, he skips to 5:00 in this video so he can see Obama saying "wow" at his singing.
callycap3 i wanna like this but it’s 666
Pepper the yeemo now you can 😉
Lmao
callycap3 wat
OMG YAY I'M THE 1000TH LIKE
I believe this video’s impact has come full circle.
Yes!!
Amen
Yes. It is so relevant in this moment
Absolutely❤

They finally gave George Washington a microphone
Switchy IKR!
*salutes to the man*
Everyone giving Obama that sad side eye tho....
evilkitty2007 IKR
I didn’t
Side eye through big fat hot tears 😢😣
It’s because he had to fit into Washington’s shoes. Even though many people were before him he still had to carry on Washington’s progress and well legacy if you think about it. There are probably so many emotions going on inside of him that may be why he’s not crying, well and he can’t really look weak in front of his entire country lol.
@Gabrielle Nielsen
ok crybaby
Everybody in the audience: **super sad, omg i'm crying, this is so emotional**
Obama himself: **awww yeah dude i'm feelin it, sick beat**
MrTheKunzer YOUR PROFILE PIC I LOVE

Obama: THIS IS MY *BOP*

"If I say goodbye, the nation learns to move on... it outlives me when I'm gone."
The first black man to portray the first President in front of the first black President.
I’m crying.
Hell yeah ❤
Literal Garbage big mood
Beautiful. ❤❤❤❤
now that's poetic
666th like ~(O.O)~
"The nation learns to move on; it outlives me when I'm gone." The fact that that line is sung with the camera on President Obama makes me teary-eyed
Ditto especially seeing what a POS we have now... it's painful.
@@elizabethwelling1276 Hey, remember the country outlives his presidency too. It will endure beyond Trump, and we'll have to pick up the pieces and heal our nation
Logan Phillips if we make it that long
And this is why we have Trump right now because of stupidity like this
DarkGracie95 at least then we weren’t a national embarrassment. no other country takes us seriously. what threat are we if we have no faith in our leadership?
Chris' voice! I cannot comprehend it!
I'm crying, AHH.
Isn't he amazing?! God, I love the whole original cast...(Haven't heard anyone who came in after, so I can't comment on their voices.)
So glad he stayed with the play to get into another year for another swipe at the Tony. I don't think he can miss.
You should try listening to In The Heights, the other musical Lin Manuel Miranda wrote. Chris has a role in it too.
Brenda R He can get nominated for another Tony now even if he left in November ?
I choke up knowing Obama felt every word of this. I think his goals were always rooted in integrity and a genuine love of country and countrymen.
Ya it’d be nice if he was genuine and honestly the person we thought he was. He could have been the best, coolest, and favorite president if that whole party was not so corrupted.
@@Reb12941
How many drone strikes did he order against civilians in the Middle East again?🙃
@@kgpspyguy you act like he's the only president who's done that, literally every president regardless of party aren't fully good people, they all do fucked up things all the time.
@@ButtToucher99that doesnt make it less wrong or bad. It's like saying the first presidents who owned slaves weren’t AS bad since almost every founding father owned slaves.
He was a proud Black man.
This song hits harder when you realise that a lot of the Hamilton members credited the Obamas for endorsing the play. There's a more personal connection than just losing a president.
Loveunit definitely!! This comment also hurts more when you realize what happened with the Vice President and the current president!!
When they turned to the ensemble, some of them were crying. I was like omgggg all of these people are so pureeee
Lillimon Mooncrest can you explain what happened between them?
@@lillimonmooncrest8878 what happened?
@@lillimonmooncrest8878 They didn't apologize, which is good
OMG I want to be in the room where this happened.

YES! smooth butter that u put on steak. now i'm hungry.
fr, he also sings as Moana's dad and there's something so soothing about it
As the Germans say, “Genau.” Agreed!
Melted butter lol 😂
Whaddyu mean underrated?

thank you, friend.
In the current political climate, this doesn't even seem real. That room was full of Respect, honor and kindness... Nothing like today.
But it is hope,no? Its something i realize a lot when being online: The people in that room are still out there, and more important that feeling is. There is a lot of unhealthy feeling around but it is neither what the US is in its core nor what the world is
CHEEZYSPAM oh shut up
@@TheOneAvocado 8 months too late hun :)
PREACH
I wish I was in the room where that happened.
I just love how everybody is crying and how Obama is super into it.
The song, not the crying.
Marcela Montufar IM LAUGHING
Marcela Montufar it was clear but your answer made me laugh really hard 😂
biden should care more
Marcela Montufar *heh xD*
You could see so much emotion through this whole song.
Even the singers, backup or front, were on the verge of tears. Lin especially looked like he'd break out crying any second.
This is how amazing the Hamilcast is.
Baillie Kitchell I knowwwwwww literally after Laurens Interlude he started crying backstage
I reckon Lin was thinking 'Glad it ain't me singing.....!'. How Chris made it through this performance is amazeballs!
I think he actually did cry 4:12
@@jasonwlloyd7178 it's also because the original cast was moving on to other things.
Look at 4:35 one of the back ups is crying
Thank you for your 52 years of public service Mr. President, and for teaching us to say goodbye. May you sit under your own vine and fig tree, safe in the nation you made. You’re truly one of the greats and history has its eyes on you.
👏 👏 👏
nope
hell nah
@@lisamichelle9425 you just gave me chills... thru all of his personal tragedy and loss he was still able to accomplish so much as potus AND step down for his country's sake.. no man deserves to sit under his own vine and fig tree than President Joseph Biden... he's going home , god bless him
I am sobbing, THIS. All these years I thought this moment was about Obama. Nope, it was about the white haired gentleman sitting next to him. God bless you Mr. President. You deserve so many good things and you have shown us all what it looks like to say Goodbye with grace and love of country. #ThankYouJoeBiden
When they sound exactly like the recordings❤
So true
Thats the power of Broadway artists
I have to tell you, I think this was even better than the recording, whenever I hear the recording of this song I think: Well that was way more powerful at the white house
its cos when they do it on stage they have to dance as well and they'd obviously tired.
they aint dancing during this song tho lmao
Currently Lin Manuel-Miranda giving Barack Obama a bro hug is the main thing keeping me alive.
Honestly, absolute mood
I don't care about Hamilton just wanted to remind you you had a Hamilton phase 5 years ago
"He shouldnt be wearing jeans" He could show up in a paper bag and still earn the respect of everyone in that room lmao
Winter Alora I would've oven respect even if he had only a paper bag lmao
Roasted HAMilton lmao
Winter Alora tru
Winter Alora I guess you can say no one else was in the room where he dresses
mikachu 2 LOL
Here I am commenting on this again, feeling once again a new emotion with this song.
The nation learns to move on.
Thank you President Biden. For your decades of service. For your leadership. For your dedication. For your humility.
seeing him sitting there front row and center focused and attentive to the music and the historic message of the song. beautiful . -HARRIS 2024 LET'S GO! 7-22-24 7am...
Legend
I'm watching this with new eyes, too. Biden is a true leader.
It is not often that a singer sounds even better live than on a recording. And then there is Christopher Jackson.
dont forget journey. look up dont stop believing live
yeah he’s so good
can you imagine what Obama felt as the first black president (who is about to step down from his position) listening to a song about George Washington (who is played by a black guy) stepping down as president
DUDE I'M SAD
Nat n so many tears
Nat n and being replaced by another white supremacy.
"and being replaced by another white supremacy."
I think you meant to type supremacist, but I must be mistaken.
Nat n Imao Washington was a slave owner
Rachel Finerty Didn't he also have children with his slaves which he then MADE into slaves? Just a question, he was still a good president though, it was just the time era. Now we don't put up with racist and sexist pigs.. well not all of them.
When you realize even the backup singers are getting emotional ;-;
Reminded of this moment again on July 21, 2024
Washington: “Pick up a pen start writing”
Burr somewhere is the distance: DON’T ENCOURAGE HIM
Ella Bane I read your comment as he sang it lol
"You are the WORST, Burr 🙄"

christopher jackson's voice is a blessing to us all
I think his sound in the White House vids are the closest to what he sounds like in the official soundtrack.
Rosie Ferris I'm mad he's not getting enough credit on here lol
Rosie Ferris Washing Machine is my favourite character.
Yesssss he was even amazing when he assimilated his voice in Moana as her dad! He sounded like all the Polynesian singers I've heard growing up I had to google if the person singing was Pacific Islander!
I love me some Chris Jackson.
I'M CRYING BECAUSE LIN IS CRYING
Don't cry,CRAFT
I meant a Dan and Phil refrence
Now I remembered this line from #Rent:
"The opposite of war isn't peace, it's creation" - Jonathan Larson
Or as Carrie Fisher once said: "Take your broken heart, make it into art"
I WAS CRYING TOO
I can’t help but wonder if he was somehow reminded of the words to this song and Washington’s actions, as he made his decision to not run for president again. Bless his heart. What a wonderful, selfless human being.
❤❤❤
History has its eyes on him❤
Daveed said in an interview that everyone who was there during the performance wept a lot, including him. And every time I listen to this song, I cry a lot and see how beautiful it was to see Obama enjoying the music, getting into the beat and becoming indefinite with the lyrics, what a wonderful President he was. I really wanted Brazil to have the opportunity to win a president like Obama, but since things are not always perfect, I keep thinking about
# GeorgeWashington'sGoingHome

And you could see a bit of water around Lin's eyes and as soon as I saw it I was just destroyed
In the event that you are trolling them / us, keep in mind that there is greater strength in sensitivity than in hardness, which is a form of shutting down.
Ella Kim why r they crying I don't get it
Kat Bell Because Obama was a bomb-ass president. Because no one knows how the next four years are gonna go. Because PoC, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and other minorities are scared for their futures. Because the song was beautiful. Many many reasons
One Last Time, President Obama. Raise a glass to freedom.

TheArchsage74 people will tell his story
Ram TheCowboy get up the White House and do a better job. You conservatives would've fucking hated him even if he did things that benefitted you.
He did do things that benifitted them. A lot of conservatives are on Obamacare and don't even realize and he takes their shit and just keeps on truckin', because he knows life is one crazy trip and don't give no fucks so he's just gonna chill and have Hamilton performed in front of him.
he ended a major war and then started another one by creating ISIS, yep he definitely succeeded as a president
"If I say goodbye, the nation learns to move on. It outlives me when I'm gone." Man-oh-man this aged really well!
Chris trying not to cry while Obama is speaking ripped me apart

Why he hold on for so long? Feel he was more forced to drop out after that debate

Chris' ability to smoothly transition from talk to singing is astounding.

Fun fact: When Chris was finished singing this, Obama shook his hand and said “thank you for teaching me to say goodbye” then Chris cried on Anthony’s shoulder for an hour 🥺💔
I wouldn't blame him honestly. I'd be sobbing myself to bed that day too if I just sang my heart out to the President and he shook my hand and told me he knows how to say bye.
yup sounds like Chris
And then Anthony is like: Dear god dude, man up -.-
This is just wholesome. Made my day better.

Who's Chris? Wait, he's not the real George Washington?

You can tell they have practiced this song to complete perfection. They know not only when they sing, but when the other sings, and how to play off of eachother, not to mention their vocals are both 100% on point during this song. By far one my favorites to see live.

callistope haha !
I absolutely love this performance :')
I think about the contrast of the selflessness of Washington. He was the first “ruler” to voluntarily walk away for the good of the new nation. With that act, I think that makes him one of the greatest leaders to ever live. Contrast that with now…I think we’ve forgotten that a bit. This song makes me tear up thinking about this simple, but great act. I loved seeing the backup singer have tears in her eyes as well. This is pretty powerful art.
Washington was in poor health at the time he stepped down. He was personally worn down by the factions in his Cabinet. At that stage in his life, George was cognizant of the message he'd be sending if he was still President and died in office. He didn't want to give the impression that 'President' was another term for 'King,' so on both a professional and personal level, he was done. Washington passed a year later, so that tells us how in sync he was with both his inherent wisdom and experience.
@@uncreative5766 Washington wasn’t just worn down by politics and poor health - he fought in your revolutionary war so there could be a president - George deserved to say goodbye “one last time” if ever anyone did 🇨🇦🙏
When told by the American artist Benjamin West that Washington was going to resign, King George III of England said "If he does that, he will be the greatest man in the world."
I miss when our White House looked like this and we had a president that appreciated art in its many forms.

Meanwhile, Obama’s just sitting there being like “relatable.”
EDIT, 2020: Oh my god, why did this turn into a whole war about politics and presidents? I wasn’t trying to start a debate, I only made a joke. Can people just enjoy the video and not be so negative all the time?
He also thought I didn't throw away my shot
@@antoinewilliams4627 But then
Donald Trump happened
Holy shit. I'm the 2k like
Watching this in 2020 and missing Obama
@@stinky.critter same tho
*Camera zooms out at **5:31*
Me: *realizes that the whole cast is there*
Me: WAUUUAAAAAA
* sees Anthony, Daveed, and Oaktree *
RAISE A FRICKIN GLASS TO FREEDOM
Christopher Jackson's voice is so amazing I just can't get over how good he is
the most underrated singer in the cast!!
Miss Maria Reynolds yes omg she’s probably the most talented of the women, and gets the least amount of solos
Agree. 👏👏👏
Obama nodding probably thinking "Yup. This is me. This is my goodbye if I could sing it."
True ;-;
lol funny
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wish he sang this when it was his last term before Trump took over
Rosie Abisia would’ve been better if the real George Washington sang something like this to Alex when he stepped down from president.
The clip of Biden watching the performance has special meaning now
After his speech, this is the very first place I came. ❤
When Lin smiles I honestly feel so happy and I can't stop smiling
AND THEN THEY ALL STARTED CRYING AND IT WENT DOWNHILL
The background singer with tears in her eyes aroun 4:35...powerful image!
She gets me every time.
Same
ikr
I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this an I’ve seen a few in the crowd wiping tears. An never noticed that some of the cast had tears in their eyes too till today! I’ve always loved this video it’s just so moving! It just shows how much President Obama was loved an respected by so many! Unlike The Cheeto who is now!
@@jcbogdon The cheeto 🤣🤣🤣
Anyone notice that one girl singing "George washingtons going home" crying, she has respect for her country and really feels these songs, or is really happy that she is singing in front of Obama
Mackensie Graham oh my god, yes Ariana was crying and that made me cry
I looossttt it when I saw that
i think it also had to do with it being close to Obama's end as president, it was so relevant to his term as well :)
Or is mourning the fact that the country was about to go to hell
LIN IS ALSO CRYING
Was this predictive of where we are today? I have chills watching this all over again today. Thank you President Biden! A man of integrity and honor. You didn’t think of yourself in this moment, but of what was best for this country. So again I say “thank you”, one last time.
Lin: Ugh this suit is too fancy
His wife: Honey...
Lin: FUCK THIS IM PULLIN OUT MY FAVORITE PAIR OF JEANS
His wife: ...k whatever I'm wearing a dress
emily mizuki I agree lol
Luciel :3 *xD*
i see you mystic messenger trash
emily mizuki DID SOMEONE SAY YURI ON ICE?!?!
TIRED OF FEELING NEVER ENOUGH
I'm not American, but the moment I started singing "George Washington's going home..." I cried. Thank you President Obama, you're a true man.
Now that he is done with the USA, I wish he could run for India
Udit Bhatia My mom would never let him leave the country, she's obsessed with him
Chris jackson for president 2020
with Lin as his running mate. OR: Leslie and Daveed running against each other. XD
Christina Ward Or Lin could run, he would be perfect.
Really if ANYONE from the Hamilton cast ran as president, I would vote.
2020 not a good year to run due to the president curse brought on by a Tribe Chef. It took in total of four presidents and almost two. Those who become the next president on a year that ends with a zero will most likely be effected by the said curse.
i want an actual skit of this now, not their actor counterparts, but them xD
being themselves
Thinking of this today when Biden announced he's dropping out of the race
0:47 Lin's "I'm sorry what?" was so freaking cute oml and Christopher Jackson's voice is amazing 👌❤
His eyes
I don't wanna hear anything from you Maria Reynolds
Sry you made hamilton/Lin cheat on eliza
Maria Reynolds ikr
oh hi maria reynolds,
I practically wanna beat you up rn bcz you made ham cheat on eliza XD
"I don't know what you heard, but whatever it is, Jefferson started it" 😂😂😂
Becky Duke me with my bro
Lil Cool lol #relatable "mom, i don't know what you heard, but whatever it is, *insert brother's name here* started it!"
Lina draws Can't relate. don't have a brother but only a twin sister.
Yoan Elora "mom, idk what you heard, but whatever it is, *insert twin sister's name here* started it!"

SAME CHRISTINE
me
Same, Christine. Same.
Why am I, a teenager from Greece tearing up about the founding father of America going into retirement 200 years ago?
Oh, because Chris Jackson is giving his everything in his performance...
I cry Everytime they sing "George Washington's going home" no matter where I am
It's just so sad to me. But it makes me feel so proud at the same time, so relieved.
Apollo Enjolras it’s also in the same tune as Thomas Jefferson is coming home - that’s a celebration
I cried in the theater during this song. I cry when I play it at home. The line you cite, if the rest of the song doesn't get you, that line certainly will. Washington trying to console Hamilton reminds me of my father when he was dying. I am beyond grateful that Mr. Miranda made this show. It is brilliant.
Why isn't anyone talking about the facial expressions Lin has in the beggining?!?!?
This songs makes me cry everytime, and I don't even understand why....
Danitza Acosta
Everyone's talking about it
It's emotional for me because this is the defining moment in American history where we became a true democracy. Not like other countries with fake elections and lifetime presidents. Sometimes when you have a good leader like Obama and you know the next isn't as good it is so hard to say goodbye but it makes us free. It maintains our democracy. It is so crucial to who we are. Washington was far from perfect but he gave us our freedom and when he could have held to power he let it go. For all of us. Just look at the world today to see how rare a person can surrender power when it's theirs for the taking.
wow this comment got me
