new in your blog but what's your favorite Hamilton song? What's your 2nd favorite musical? ( mine is Guns and ships, Nonstop) and (Heather)
Today? Today it’s Non Stop because i just sent my friend an entire essay about just the argument between Eliza and Alex. The motifs, the symbolism, the callbacks, the apotheosis, the appeal of humanity vs the allure of hubris *chefs kiss*. Honestly? One of my friends doesn’t think Hamilton is sad. And yet i’ve spent most of the morning obsessing over just how sad this one little conversation is. And the implications it has to say about Eliza! Incredible. This song, this argument, is the first time Eliza says his name in the play. Period. Hardstop. And the implications are insane!!! You know what? I’ve been debating writing essays about Hamilton, but a this point i’m seriously considering it because there is so much to talk about 😭
Omggg it’s soooo The Fiddler on the Roof. The history. The motifs. The comedy. The tragedy. It’s all soooooo sublime.

Play that Car Like a Goddamn Guitar, the 2024 grid as guitar tracks that slap
Tracklist:
Max Verstappen: Hocus Pocus - Focus
Focus is a Dutch band and this is very much a song that is doing its own thing and not giving a shit what other guitar songs do. Screw having words, I have a flute, the ability to yodel, and turn into a goblin half-way through.
Sergio Perez: No One Knows - Queens of the Stone Age
A song about being doomed to failure.
Carlos Sainz Jr.: Paint It, Black - The Rolling Stones
I see a red door and I want it painted black. Yeah Carlos, yeah.
Charles Leclerc: Layla - Derek and the Dominos
A song as famous for its piano part as its guitar part about losing your mind you love someone so much. Sounds about right for Charles.
George Russell: Take Me Out - Franz Ferdinand
British mid-00s rock about sniper duels. It's all a bit stiff upper-lip.
Lando Norris: Brianstorm - Arctic Monkeys
We're bringing back 2007-style fuck boys.
Lewis Hamilton: Tunnel Of Love - Dire Straits
As far as rockstars go, Mark Knopfler might be the most technically skilled guitarist going. And it doesn't get more Brocedes coded than this.
Oscar Piastri: Joker and the Thief - Wolfmother
Let's get mythological and prophetic with an Aussie rock band.
Fernando Alonso: Can I Play With Madness - Iron Maiden
If the grid has an evil wizard, it's Nando.
Lance Stroll: More Than A Feeling - Boston
There's something sad and wistful about this and then that guitar solo drags you back in. Like Lance and this sport.
Zhou Guanyu: Just - Radiohead
One day I'll get to you and teach you how to get to purest hell. Cleverer, more technically skilled and more full of rage than anyone gives it credit for.
Kevin Magnussen: Breaking the Law - Judas Priest
So much for the golden future, I can't even start. I've had every promise broken, there's anger in my heart. Oooft.
Daniel Ricciardo: Thunderstruck - ACDC
Look it was never going to be anything but Thunderstruck.
Yuki Tsunoda: Rainbow In The Dark - Dio
No sign of the morning coming, you've been left on your own, like a Rainbow in the Dark. You deserve a team that loves you Yukes.
Alex Albon: I Believe In A Thing Called Love - The Darkness
Right through cringe and out the other side. Keep smiling.
Nico Hulkberg: Barracuda - Heart
Dick joke.
Esteban Ocon: Runnin' Down A Dream - Tom Petty
Unpretentiously slaps. Doesn't need any bells and whistles (and can't afford them either).
Pierre Gasly: Hammer To Fall - Queen
Vengeance, Pierre Gasly be thy name.
Valtteri Bottas: The Kids Aren't Alright - The Offspring
Valtteri is a self-confessed Offspring fan and often uses this one in his insta stories.
Logan Sargeant: (Don't Fear) The Reaper - Blue Öyster Cult
We can be like they are. Come on baby. Logan's a real damsel in distress and this is definitely the song for that.

in the sansa stan dany stan arya stan wars i consider myself neutral/all of the above/war profiteer but i definitely come across as a sansagirl made evident by the fact shes the only one of the three i have a spotify blorbo playlist for. however in my defence this is because i think arya listens to goth and death metal and industrial noise and i could not put a hozier song on her playlist with a gun to my head. and i think a dany playlist would be musical theatre and im not putting myself through that torture
