Amazing!!!! Thank you for sharing. No pun intended, but I have been waiting for Wait for It since seeing it at the public. It wasn't on any B-roll.
Does anyone know how long these first look things stay up? Assuming it's a limited time.

Probably until you can go buy your own copy digitally on Friday,

I'm getting goosebumps listening to this and I've seen the show live multiple times. This is amazing

Just that first track gave me all the chills! I can't wait for Friday!!

If Friday is your first time seeing it live, I'd recommend not listening any more... why not see this stuff happen for the first time with those people singing it directly to you live?!

mpd4165's probably referring to Friday being the official release of the digital album, not seeing the show live. In either case, I definitely agree with waiting until after you've seen it live if feasible.

Well, if that is the case, then sure... listen away, same thing coming out on Friday, heh.

I sure hope this stays up until Friday. It would be great if I don't have another day without this in my life.

Posted: 9/21/15 at 10:20amI listened to much of the first act on my morning commute- it sounds fantastic. I've been eager to revisit this score since I saw the production back in February.

OHMYGOODNESS. Thank you so much! I nearly cried with joy.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

Haterobics, you're right, Friday is when I will see the show for the first time. I think I'm trying to be careful and not expose myself to more than what I've already been exposed to, but the temptation is STRONG.

#Hamiltunes is trending on Twitter worldwide.

Listening to it right now - so good! I was surprised to see #Hamiltunes trending! So awesome. :)
Every so often there was a rare moment of perfect balance when I soared above him.

I was praying that we would get a first listen. Thanks so much for posting this.

Wow this is a great way to start the week ... it's making being back in the office less painful on a Monday morning! I've seen Hamilton once, in late July, and I've been waiting impatiently for this since then. Listening just now I feel transported back to the theatre. Good stuff.
Btw in multiple threads there are people asking about listening to this before seeing the show and I recommend holding out on listening if you can. I think it's much more powerful to experience it live first. Of course if you've got a long wait I totally understand wanting to hear it now!
I like a good rhyme more than a good time

I know I'm in the minority, but this show does nothing for me. I've listened to the cast recording and watched the trailers, but it still fails to interest me.

Well, I know what I'm listening to at work today. Loved the show.
Is anyone else thrown by hearing the first song sung by someone other than LMM at the White House poetry jam, ie the only video that's been available on YouTube for a while?
Also, I'm torn. What do you think: Should people who might eventually see Hamilton listen to the recording? Does only listening to the audio do the show justice?
#25Lin shared complete Hamilton Recording
Posted: 9/21/15 at 11:39amThe recording will be the only feasible way many people will be able to experience the score for a long time.
