When I was asked to do a song from 'In the Heights' at the White House in 2009, I chose instead to do 'Alexander Hamilton' because I felt like I was meeting a moment.
Love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love cannot be killed or swept aside.
[BURR] I am the one thing in life I can control.
[HAMILTON] I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory
I couldn't possibly write 'Next to Normal,' but God, I can weep and watch 'Next to Normal' five times.
In the best works of fiction, there's no mustache-twirling villain. I try to write shows where even the bad guy's got his reasons.
