If music can tell stories, what's the use of pale language?

There are three women in Hamilton:

? Soulmate Angelica:

Seeing love at first sight like light again, seeing through each other's pursuits and ambitions at a glance - "He will never be satisfied."

? Accompanying Elisa for half a lifetime:

The combination of real-life harmony gave him all the tenderness and companionship, and devoted himself to his unfinished business after her husband's death - "That would be enough."

?Eros incarnate Maria:

The unbearable loneliness led to a derailed summer carnival, and it became a stain on his life - "Show me how to say no to this."

The history books are completed, and later generations will comment.

There are always some that remember beyond love, beyond right and wrong, beyond merit and demerit. Starting from one's own world, walking through the world of history, and restoring the world dragged by someone, even so, there is always room for imagination - "They're going through the unimaginable."

If stories can be told in music, what use do we need to have in pale language?

The poisoning is too deep, and I haven’t really come out yet. Every day, the singles are looped. You will find a person, a scene, and a piece of emotion, which can be fully expressed with a single highlight lyrics. The expression is direct enough, forceful enough, and impressive enough.

Musicals seem to be shelved and defined as "high-end art" (of course, the economic base is here to hinder the climb of the superstructure), but the Internet has leveled a lot of things, "Hamilton" is close enough to young people, its emotion, empathy, The resonance is straightforward enough to tell a story of the "American Dream" that can be applied everywhere. So you will find that sometimes the most classic works often evoke the most universal resonance.
