A dynamic display of songwriting, mastery of subject matter, and performance by Miranda and the cast of Hamilton. Hercules Mulligan, Alexander Hamilton, and the entire crew of historical figures kill it.
A beautiful performance by Leslie Odom Jr., “Wait For It,” from Hamilton, is about patience, but wonders about the distinction between patience and cowardice. Odom Jr.’s voice soars.
For distinct parts of 2021 and 2022, this was the most popular song in music. For anyone hoping to cast Miranda in a Broadway box, this assured him of iconic status.
A song that displays such rich history of the hip-hop genre. Blending Biggie with history, Miranda samples The Notorious B.I.G.’s legendary song “Ten Crack Commandments” with a historic rivalry in this Hamiltonnumber.
The opening, stage-setting song from In the Heights, this track brings individuality and the collective party to the forefront, whetting your creative appetite. It’s a masterpiece.
Perhaps the most emotive song from the soundtrack, this is the one where the main character realizes what he’s going to do with his new inheritance. Instead of going away, he’s going to invest in his community, in its artists. It brings on happy chills.
A song that brought the two-word title into the zeitgeist and common vernacular. A song that is all about taking advantage of opportunities. Like Eminem’s “Lose Yourself.”
A cut-to-the-bone song from Hamiltonwhere the main character gets put in his place—a much-needed moment in the play.
A delightful song from the new Disney movie, The Little Mermaid, performed by Daveed Diggs and Awkwafina. So much energy and verve.
A great song from the soundtrack for the Pixar film, Moana. It was Miranda’s first foray into animated work post-Hamilton. And he knocked it out of the park. Photo by Jason Mendez/Getty Images

- Wait For It (Hamilton) I had to put “Wait For It” at number one. That one line, “I am inimitable, I am an original,” just sits with me. It’s all about Aaron Burr, who has had a tough life, waiting to see how the wind changes and figuring out what to do with his life from there, deciding that he is going to take control of what he wants to do.
- Satisfied (Hamilton) Renée Elise Goldsberry sang her head off with this song and yes, “Satisfied” from Hamilton is one of my go-to karaoke songs. It’s just written so incredibly well that I can’t help but put it at number two.
- Surface Pressure (Encanto) Overall, I love Moana more than Encanto. I feel like the animation is better, the characters are better, and the overall songs are more memorable.
- How Far I’ll Go (Moana) While Moana is not a princess in Moana, this song is one of the best “Disney princess” songs there is, where it introduces you to the main female protagonist and her dreams for the world.
- My Own Drum. I didn’t vote for this song – it delivers its message of empowerment and individuality about as subtly as a freight train. It’s easy to see why its relentless optimism and energy have connected.
- Keep the Beat. As well as writing the songs, the multi-talented Miranda plays a singing kinkajou (a Latin American tree racoon) in the 2021 animated film Vivo.
- Surface Pressure. Encanto has an unusual structure for a movie with no antagonist and an entire extended family of main characters. Miranda’s songs help to differentiate the myriad of characters – ‘Surface Pressure’ is the feature song for Luisa, a character blessed with super-strength.
- Yorktown (the World Turned Upside Down) As likeable as Miranda’s earnest portrayal of Hamilton is, Daveed Diggs dominates every scene he’s in.
