      Idk how they weren’t bawling their eyes out. The song is emotional without its realistic parallel to Obama leaving office. I get a tear in my eye every time I see this video and/ or hear the song. This is one of the best musicals to ever be written by the most genuine man you will ever meet. I’m just in complete awe of the performance. Well done....well done...

    I think about the contrast of the selflessness of Washington. He was the first “ruler” to voluntarily walk away for the good of the new nation.

This song makes me tear up thinking about this simple, but great act. I loved seeing the backup singer have tears in her eyes as well. This is pretty powerful art.

      Washington was in poor health at the time he stepped down. He was personally worn down by the factions in his Cabinet. At that stage in his life, George was cognizant of the message he'd be sending if he was still President and died in office. He didn't want to give the impression that 'President' was another term for 'King,' so on both a professional and personal level, he was done. Washington passed a year later, so that tells us how in sync he was with both his inherent wisdom and experience.

There are probably so many emotions going on inside of him that may be why he’s not crying, well and he can’t really look weak in front of his entire country lol.
