Just as the (hopefully) final days of lockdown threaten to squeeze out the very last dregs of morale from our hearts, Hamilton: The Musical has arrived on Disney+. Suddenly, the world feels a little bit brighter.

Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Tony and Pulitzer-winning historical musical, loved by millions across the world (including Prince Harry and Meghan Markle) tells the story of American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. And it does so through the ears: a two-and-a-half hour score of 45 songs that have become adored by fans.

As seasoned Hamilton listeners will know, choosing a favourite depends largely on one’s mood and purpose. But needs must, and The Telegraph’s Hamilton fans have compared notes to create the definitive ranking of the best 25 songs from the show.
