Musical Characters React

First Burn

Me: Hey, guys! We are here, via different video chats, because the Coronavirus had to ruin everything...

Anne Boleyn: IT'S NOT FAIR! WE DIDN'T GET TO OPEN ON BROADWAY, AND NOW WE CAN'T PERFORM BACK HOME!

Anna of Cleves: Again, like we've told you, Anne, it's for the best! Look at it this way... when we get back, our vocals and harmonies will be tight!

Anne Boleyn: Hmmm... you're right.

Me:...so welcome to "Musical Characters React", video chat edition...yeah... we will be doing it this way until the Coronavirus scare dies down. So how is everybody doing all at home?

Usnavi: We're just... social distancing and stuff. 

Jane Seymour: Yeah...

Sonny: I've been binging and playing a lot of video games, but it IS getting a bit boring just moping around at home all day.

Veronica: Yeah, but at least I have a break from the Heathers!

Heather C.: HEY!

Eliza: At least it gives us a lot more rest.

Hamilton: Well, I've been doubling down WAY more on my work!

Me: So, today's winning request is by crackhead_theatre.

Philip: First Burn? What's that?

Me: It's Lin Manuel Miranda's first version of Burn that didn't make the cut in Hamilton, and it is an angrier, more disgusted version of "Burn".

Laurens: Say what now?

Jefferson: And I oop...

Hamilton: SHUT UP JEFFERSON! JUST BECAUSE WE'RE ON A VIDEO CHAT DOESN'T MEAN I CAN'T GIVE YOU WHAT YOU DESERVE!

King George: Okay, can we just get on with it?

Me: All right! Here is First Burn!

I saved every letter you wrote me
From the moment I saw you
I knew you were mine
You said you were mine
I thought you were mine

Peggy: Wait, this sounds the same as the final product!

Lafayette: Yeah... I wonder how this is different from the version we hear in the show?

Do you know what Angelica said
When I told her what you'd done?
She said
"You have married an Icarus
He has flown too close to the sun"
