So very glad you're back reacting to Hamilton! I love seeing a fresh view to our history. We, in the US think everyone knows our history, and yet we're so young as a country, our existence is just a blip compared to those on the European continent. Even if the "borders" of some countries are relatively new, their cultures go back hundreds of years before the European influenced US culture. So basically we're toddlers or maybe preteens. 😉

There are a few songs that were cut from the show or changed before it went to stage. One of your upcoming songs will be called Burn. After you watch Burn (either the same video, the next or even when you finish all the tracks) you should watch an animatic of Congratulations, which was to be sung by Angelica just before Burn but was cut out and First Burn which is the draft of the song that Lin wrote, but he changed it before the musical was ever performed. There is a great version of it on the official Hamilton channel with 5 different actors who played Eliza in the London cast singing it together. If you are worried about copyright there is an animatic of First Burn too.

They give a different tone/emotion to that storyline. I have theories about why they were cut, but won’t spoil anything.

Just to clarify because not everyone knows the use of speculation in this setting, Alexander Hamilton was suspected of and insinuated here that he "engaged in speculation" - he is being accused of embezzling government funds to use for his own benefit (speculation being a term tied to the stock market which Hamilton was inextricably tied to his entire career in finances and the banks and banking system of America). They had the wrong suspicion. And an affair and extortion wouldn't help them but it *was* ammo for someone like Burr who might use it to leverage himself. The situation with James Reynolds was actually way more complicated but Hamilton wasn't guilty of embezzling or any sort of crimes against the govt like the trio believed.
