ミラクルミュージカル (Miracle Musical) is a Creator-Driven Successor to Tally Hall after they stopped releasing albums. It was founded by some of the same members (including Joe Hawley, Ross Federman, Zubin Sedghi, and Bora Karaca). Their only full-length album, Hawaii: Part II, was released on December 12th, 2012, at 12:12:12am — a surreal Genre Roulette that involves Time Travel, electroshock therapy, multiple foreign languages, references to ancient mythology, and may or may not be forming a continuous story. Nobody's exactly sure what it means.A variety of outtakes from it were released on Hawaii: Part II: Part ii, which came out on May 19, 2014. This was followed by Hawaii Partii (an anthology of chiptune remixes) on December 31, 2015.

Arc Symbol: The stellated octahedron, often referred to as a "stella octangula" is closely associated with the project, and is mentioned in the lyrics of "Black Rainbows". It can even be seen faintly in the moon on the cover (it can be seen more clearly in images such as this one).

Reprise Medley
 Miracle Musical (Music) / int_13fc7795
comment
Reprise Medley: "Variations on a Cloud" is a big mashup of previous songs from the album: melodies and lyrics from "Isle Unto Thyself", "Murders", "Dream Sweet in Sea Major" are brought back and twisted around. The song ends on a reprise of "Ruler of Everything" from Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum. "Dream Sweet in Sea Major", the final track on the album, includes lyrics from the earlier songs "Introduction to the Snow", "Black Rainbows", and "Space Station Level 7".

Ominous Latin Chanting: "Black Rainbows" is a tribal-sounding song with deep, ominous Hawaiian chanting running throughout. A woman's voice can be heard singing "Stella octangula~!" in the background, which is Latin for "eight-pointed star".

Electro Convulsive Therapy Is Torture. The entire point of "The Mind Electric" is to illustrate this, with half of the song being reversed demonstrating the effects of having the brain damaged by electricity.

Book Ends: Both the first and last tracks start with the line "alone at the edge of a universe humming a tune". The first and last three lines of "Murders" are nearly identical, the key difference being that the first lines are in the third person and the last are in the first person.

Triumphant Reprise
 Miracle Musical (Music) / int_5da37ab5
comment
Triumphant Reprise: A variant. "Variations on a Cloud", which mixes in various Hawaii: Part ii songs, ends with a reprise of "Ruler of Everything" from Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum. The original verse is about a guy being pretentious and flashy, his wife criticizing him, and the overall pointlessness of this since he'll die of old age someday anyways. In "Variations on a Cloud", he now has a "wonderful life" and seems to have accepted that his situation is different, being more careful and looking forward to new opportunities.

Time Machine: "Time Machine" begins with the narrator regretting how he used to spend his time, but then he realizes that he can regain it with his time machine. Over the course of the song, he becomes accustomed to it and admires that he can do anything instantly and with no urgency. The song ends on an ominous note with the first two lines of the chorus being repeated multiple times, suggesting that he's now entered a time loop.

Six being the colors of the rainbow and one being, well, black. Not only is it in the title of "Space Station Level 7", it's even mentioned in the lyrics. "Dream Sweet In Sea Major" is exactly seven minutes long. Hawaii: Part II: Part ii can be bought on Bandcamp for $7.77.

The first half of "The Mind Electric" is the same as the second part of the song, but played completely backwards, including the lyrics. Additionally, even in the straight-forward verse, the word "insane" is reversed.

Last Note Nightmare: The last few seconds of "Isle Unto Thyself" features a Sting getting progressively louder, serving as the transition into "Black Rainbows". Inverted in "The Mind Electric". The song grows increasingly intense and distressing as the protagonist undergoes electroshock therapy, destroying his mind and making him wonder what could have lead to this. However, the last verse appears to be after the shocks are over; the background noises die down and the singer's voice returns to normal, admitting that he's somewhat calm now. The last 42 seconds of "Dream Sweet in Sea Major" primarily consist of a Drone of Dread with progressively more notes added onto it.

Sanity Slippage Song: "The Mind Electric" includes a man who is held on trial. He pleads that "his brain has claimed its glory over him" and he "has a good heart, albeit insane", which leads to him being sent to the infirmary for electroshock treatment. This is incredibly painful and distressing for him, including lines like "Someone help me understand what's going on inside my mind/Doctor I can't tell if I'm not me".
