30/90 Lyrics Tick Tick Boom Andrew Garfield

Okay, let's talk Tick, Tick... Boom! And specifically, let’s talk about those catchy, sometimes slightly annoying, but ultimately brilliant songs. We've all been there, right?

The 30/90 Dilemma: A Gen Z Rant (Kind Of)

First, let's tackle "30/90." It's the opening banger. The one that gets stuck in your head for days. But am I the only one who thinks it's... slightly stressful?

I mean, Jonathan Larson is freaking out about turning 30. Thirty! I'm over here stressing about what to wear to brunch, and he's having an existential crisis about his musical career. Perspective, man!

Don't get me wrong, it's a good song. A great song, even. But the pressure! The implied urgency! Maybe I just need a nap.

"Therapy" and Other Sing-Along Gems

Okay, "Therapy" is amazing. That duet is just *chef's kiss*. And honestly, who hasn't wanted to scream-sing that at their partner (or, you know, just in the shower)?

But, let's be honest, every song in Tick, Tick... Boom! is ridiculously catchy. "Johnny Can't Decide"? Instant earworm. You're humming it now, aren't you?

Even the quieter songs have a way of worming their way into your brain. It’s musical theatre magic… or maybe it's just Jonathan Larson's genius at work.

Andrew Garfield: Can We Talk About *That* Performance?

And now, for the main event: Andrew Garfield. Swoon. I mean, objectively, he crushed it.

He sang, he danced, he played the piano... and he made existential dread look kinda hot? Is that just me?

Seriously, I went into Tick, Tick... Boom! thinking, "Okay, Andrew Garfield, show me what you've got." He didn't disappoint. He absolutely killed it. (In a good way, obviously).

Unpopular Opinion Alert: Some of the Musical Changes Were... Good?

Okay, prepare for a potentially controversial statement: I actually liked some of the changes they made from the stage show to the movie.

Yes, I know, blasphemy! But hear me out. Adding more of Jonathan's real life made the story even more poignant. The added scenes grounded the musical numbers in a way that I appreciated.

Besides, who are we kidding? The movie wouldn’t have the same magic without the presence of Andrew Garfield's raw talent. I rest my case.

Final Thoughts (Before I Go Listen to "30/90" Again)

So, Tick, Tick... Boom! It's a musical, it's a movie, it's a feeling. A feeling of impending doom mixed with the urge to create something amazing before it's too late.

It makes you think. It makes you sing. And it makes you appreciate Andrew Garfield even more than you already did (which, let's face it, is a lot).

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go write a musical about the struggles of choosing between Netflix and going to the gym. Wish me luck. Or, you know, just send pizza.
