Hearing that hardcore " *Next to my wife* "coming straight out of Jay's face when he's in the middle of being his usual chipper, hyped self is kinda jarring ngl lol
I cannot wait for Penelopes song! I have been waiting for forever for her song. The first time I heard Suffering I was so excited thinking it was a Penelope song😊
Same!!! I’m always pleasantly surprised when we get bits of Penelope’s voice throughout the musical while we wait but I’m SO READY for the real Penelope!
@@DinoGeekLOL Waiting...Waiting For forever All they've done is wait For forever All they've done is Wait for it This is a thing in life we cannot control But this is inevitable, this will be original Sorry my sick ass read "for forever" and then "wait" and crossed the wires
I'm anticipating Penelope since day 1, in The Horse and The Infant when Ody sings for his son and wife made me so curious. And then in suffering I got completely SOLD
Fr, I was literally listening to epic while watching this (it's a bad habit, ik) and I had to stop it just to hear it. I'm so excited for the final saga!!!!
I love how in suffering, the ensemble says Penelope. But in the trailer for the Ithaca saga, it's just her motif. It feels like the sirens were saying her name to trick us into thinking it really is Penelope. But when we actually do get to see her, we already know who exactly who it is, and don't need extra convincing to make us believe shes the real one. Therefore, no need to say her name.
"Would you Fall in love with me Again" it's been going around my head for weeks already (-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩___-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩) I really can't wait for Penelope to finally shine
Not to mention how he has put Penelope on a pedestal for all of us. Our collective hackles got raised when Antinuos appeared, no? Amazing stuff, especially since we hadn't seen her for ourselves yet!
Penelope's melody is one the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in my life. The instruments alone make you feel that pain of separation, that grief of not knowing if someone you love is okay, that hopefulness of anticipation. Every time I hear it I just want to cry. You nailed the emotions with the strings and symphony behind it. AND YOU CASTED THE PERFECT VOICE FOR HER TOO, SHE SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE EVERY EMOTION PENELOPE SHOULD HAVE. I was waiting to hear the real penelope for SO LONG. I couldn't be more excited.
Penelope’s motif feels very melancholic and I’m not sure why. It seems like at first it’s a take of the “brought back but different” which is Odysseus’ thing but it also feels right for her at least from her motif
I love how the only time (I can think of) that we heard Penelope's real motif, it was in There Are Other Ways, when Odysseus talks about her, it's almost like he can actually see her in front of him and he feels like she's really there, just shows how much he loves her that after 12 entire years he can still see her as if she's really there
It’ll be nice to get a real introduction to Penelope, rather than hallucinations or sirens, thank you for giving me something to look forward to this Christmas, Jay
I can't wait to meet Penelope!! I love her a lot already, the love Odysseus has for her really bleeds through. We love this woman we haven't even met yet because Ody loves her so much that it makes us, the audience, feel it...! Her motif is so beautiful and the transition between Vengeance and Ithaca Sagas sounds AMAZING!
I saw an animatic with the demo audio of The Challenge the other day, and it was the first time I ever heard the song. I kid you not - it brought me to tears. JUST THE DEMO had me CRYING! I thought of my boyfriend, my first love, the man I've lived with for the past year, with whom I was long distance with for a year and a half; and the idea of being away from him for two decades when just a year and a half was so painful literally made my heart ache. So I could just FEEL the emotion and excitement at the very concept of her love being close by. Couple that with a gorgeous and stunning voice and beautiful art of the animator's part and it was enough to make me cry.
All of these discussions or previews of Penelope, and the instrumentals of Ithaca saga, they all just make me wanna have a meltdown and cry so hard already and I just get endless shivers... And I tell myself "Wow, we really are at the final saga now" after listening to Epic on loop since beginning of time, I'm going to ugly cry so hard once it comes out, I'm preparing all my tissues for the sniffles This musical will and always will tug at my heartstrings on an emotional and spiritual level
I am... so ready to hear the real Penelope!!! Im on the edge of my sest waiting. Happy holidays, Jorge!! And thank you for the work you do on this musical concept. Fully into it now. Hook, line, and sinker.
When I read the Odyssey in high school I vividly remember my take away was Penelope was the coolest and I loved her. I thought she was so strong and clever and level headed. The strength it takes to wait with confidence is staggering. Soooo excited for this dude!
After Pénélopes Instrument i now have stuck in my had "back at home my wife awaits for me. She's my everything. My Penelope. And she's all my power, all my power, but it's been twelve long years. Ohhh twelve long years since i've last seen my wife. And now the god of tides is here to end my life. So i beg you Circe lend us mercy and let us puppets leve. Ah Poseidon eh?." ❤
Please make a TikTok showing how you create melodies and decide on instruments like scary cellos how do you come up with notes and structure them A deep dive into your creative process would help because I’m planning to create a musical and though I’m getting a keyboard I have no idea how to compose songs for themes characters or scenes
AHHHH! Finally! We get to actually see and hear Penelope! Been waiting for the Ithaca Saga since I first listened to the songs in chronological order (found “My Goodbye” first, don’t judge me please), and we’re finally here! If I thought Anna’s voice was good in the songs we briefly hear Penelope, I can’t wait to hear “The Challenge”, the first solo song she sings! The musical genius strikes again!
Oh, you found this musical the same way I did! My friend posted My Goodbye in the music channel of our friend group's discord server, and I loved it so much I wanted to hear the rest, and I only had the first two sagas but _I was in love by the end and desperate for more._ And I've been here ever since. I can't wait for Penelope either! I heard a pieced-together version of The Challenge a few months ago, but I'm willing to bet there are bits missing, and also it's gonna sound way better in the official version, and I am excited.
A man like u who is so dedicated in his work and wants to create an impact by spreading ur emotions thru ur songs is a blessing this world deserves. Nowadays, u dont' find much songs that makes you want to feel those emotions you expect to feel. When u start writing other albums as well, I have very high expectations of u Jorge! Keep up the good work for I am Waiting..... Waiting......
I cannot even BEGIN to explain my excitement for this. I have been following along your journey for years and you are a large inspiration for my own musicals I have wanted to start (one original and one based off of Hades and Persephone but done slightly different than most takes). You are quite literally everything I strive to be and I wish I knew how to orchestrate as well as you. Watching your videos has been such a good way for me to learn and I came to realize that your music and the way you build these characters and the story line is very similar to how I write a book. Thank you so much for your inspiration and I both cannot wait and am very scared of the last Saga. I look forward to what you do next. Thank you, Jorge. You are a godsend.
You did an excellent job building the anticipation, despite everything that has happened to, and everything that Odysseus has done, I absolutely cannot wait for him to reunite with Penelope (and Telemacus) again. Great Job Jorge. "Pernerlerper" 😂
No need here. Absolutely love Penelope! I have been singing challenge so often my children have memorised it and sing it back. Her character is so underrated in so many retellings of the odyssey 😩❤️
Jorge, this is and will forever be one of, if not my favorite musical. I think I speak for everyone when I say that even when all is done, your still gonna be our Captain 😎🤙🏼
I've always loved the Odyssey and Penelope was literally my inspiration as a child. Her wit, her intellect, emotional strength and loyalty was all things I strived for. She feels like she has a productive and funness to her yet she's resolute and peaceful and I love her. She is the perfect example of strength and femininity in my opinion.
Hearing that hardcore " *Next to my wife* "coming straight out of Jay's face when he's in the middle of being his usual chipper, hyped self is kinda jarring ngl lol
Fr
It is in fact one of the most jarring things I’ve ever heard. He can really turn Odysseus on and off.
if the ithaca saga doesnt end with "PENELOPERRRRR" i will be the monster rawr rawr rawr
PENELOPER!
And then she sneaks up and f!cking explodes like its minecraft
PENELOPERRRRRR
PENELOPEERRRRRE
peneloperr werrr yurr knerr irrmm terrr shyrrrr arnd terrriferrd
_"Or in the sandals"_ is hilarious but also THAT SUDDEN SWITCH FROM NORMAL TALKING TONE TO BELTING PENELOPE'S LINE FROM THUNDER BRINGER SPUN ME
His Eb5 has definitely improved!! Especially since he tried to build that note when he was singing the challenge.
as the literal end to his suffering, _LET ME TAKE THE SUFFERING FROM YOUU_
belting?
@ more like falsetto haha
I cannot wait for Penelopes song! I have been waiting for forever for her song. The first time I heard Suffering I was so excited thinking it was a Penelope song😊
Waaaiiitiiiing.. waaaaiiitiiiing...
Same!!! I’m always pleasantly surprised when we get bits of Penelope’s voice throughout the musical while we wait but I’m SO READY for the real Penelope!
@@DinoGeekLOL Waiting...Waiting
For forever
All they've done is wait
For forever
All they've done is
Wait for it
This is a thing in life we cannot control
But this is inevitable, this will be original
Sorry my sick ass read "for forever" and then "wait" and crossed the wires
@@AlexPastGreyplease don’t spoil the song 😭
DEH AND HAMILTON?!?!?! @@AlexPastGrey
3:10 He indirectly said he is excited for us to cry....
Yippie!!
I unironically cant wait to cry 😂
Yay
We all secretly know we want to...
oh come on, we already know he is, let's not pretend this is new information lmao
I'm anticipating Penelope since day 1, in The Horse and The Infant when Ody sings for his son and wife made me so curious. And then in suffering I got completely SOLD
THIS! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YEARS, MY ANTICIPATION IS UNMEASURABLE
A CAN OF BEANS!!!
Penelope's motif is so gorgeous and I can't wait to finally hear her in 'The Challenge". 💕🎻

When he played the "real" Penelope's intro music I got into tears 😭✋❤
It's so sweet and full of so much emotion 😢 how are we not suppose to have are hearts swell up
1:47 we live for Jay's random hands movements that still somehow make sense
Fr
Not to mention how he has put Penelope on a pedestal for all of us. Our collective hackles got raised when Antinuos appeared, no? Amazing stuff, especially since we hadn't seen her for ourselves yet!
I LITERALLY CANNOT WAIT TO HEAR PENELOPE I LOVE HER VOICE 😭💗 KEEP COOKING JORGE‼️
“Cause Odysseus calls out to her about every other song” 😆
The real Penelope motif after the fake one just gave me goosebumps, idk why we've *_HEARD IT BEFORE_*
Penelope's melody is one the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in my life. The instruments alone make you feel that pain of separation, that grief of not knowing if someone you love is okay, that hopefulness of anticipation. Every time I hear it I just want to cry.

I was waiting to hear the real penelope for SO LONG. I couldn't be more excited.
Im so excited to hear the REAL PENELOPE 😮❤🎉
Me too
The patience of this woman should be studied but I love her
0:32 WHAT DO YOU MEAN EVERY _OTHER_ SONG? MAN CALLS OUT TO HER EVERY SONG
No! There was that one song in the vengeance saga when Hermes is dancing with the winyons... Sorry about the spelling, I'm dislecic
@@SnuggliestBuguhmmmm doubt you can spell vengeance fine but you can’t spell the name of the thing you probably have to say almost every day?
@@Canadian_snowmanmy phone autocorrects one but not the other, maybe theirs does the same thing. Winions was also spelled incorrectly
@@Canadian_snowmanok there is no need to poke fun at ppl’s spelling. This isnt school. Its youtube. Likely have autocorrect on too
I like how when trying to find a song where Penelope isn’t mentioned it’s like: you know that one song….
Hearing Penelope’s instruments playing perfectly- is just… SUCH an elating experience.
No words can express how happy I am
I KNOW RIGHT?! I'M SO EXCITED TO MEMORIZE THE ITHACA SAGA TOO
Penelope’s motif feels very melancholic and I’m not sure why. It seems like at first it’s a take of the “brought back but different” which is Odysseus’ thing but it also feels right for her at least from her motif
Penelope’s motif with the viola is just gorgeous 🥺🥺🥺
I love how the only time (I can think of) that we heard Penelope's real motif, it was in There Are Other Ways, when Odysseus talks about her, it's almost like he can actually see her in front of him and he feels like she's really there, just shows how much he loves her that after 12 entire years he can still see her as if she's really there
Ah! I got chills when I heard the proper Penelope motif!!!
I'm so excited to finally meet Penelope!!! I've been waiting for her and her songs for so long, especially The Challenge!!!!
It’ll be nice to get a real introduction to Penelope, rather than hallucinations or sirens, thank you for giving me something to look forward to this Christmas, Jay
Jorge: *plays Penelope's motif*
Me: 😭😫✋🤌🤌❤❤❤😭😭😫
Same 😭
Thats me
I swear every time I hear Penelope’s motif with the strings I get chills!!
Been waiting for her songs since the beginning!!!
Hearing Penelope instrumental is just honey to our ears😌👑🎼🎻
Penelope's motif and her voice have always made me so emotional so I predict this last saga will absolutely wreck me
The amount of detail you’ve put in then instruments alone is incredible. I’m so excited for Christmas but I’m not ready for it to end!
1:23, that's a donald trump impression and you can't prove me otherwise
BRO I HAVE BEEN WAITING~ FOR PENELOPE SINCE WHEN I JOINED DURING RHE CYCLOPS SAGA I AM READY!
Waiting- Odysseus when you come home, I’ll be waiting ~
@@ChurroPole I'm right right here mom, can't you see I'm... 😭😭
@relaxed_llama_edits Waiting……. I took to long
THE SECOND PENELOPE'S VIOLA PLAYED I STARTED CRYING 😭😭😭
I love Penelope so much. I’ve been anticipating the Ithica saga the most 💕
2:24
Interesting how ODYSSEUS loves the character of Penelope.
I can't wait to meet Penelope!! I love her a lot already, the love Odysseus has for her really bleeds through. We love this woman we haven't even met yet because Ody loves her so much that it makes us, the audience, feel it...! Her motif is so beautiful and the transition between Vengeance and Ithaca Sagas sounds AMAZING!
Penelope's motif is BEAUTIFUL, and I feel like curling into a ball and crying, which doesn't happen very often so thanks mr jalapeno
I can't wait for penelope song
I've heard the snippets and the voice actress is amazing and the lyrics amazing 👏
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!! THE LONGING AND EXCITEMENT I FELT WHEN I HEAR THE CLEAR ORIGINAL MOTIF OF PENELOPE AFTER THE SYNTHETIC ONE!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!
penelope's motif has got to be one of my favourite ones for sure
GAHH THE ITHICA SAGA IS GOING TO OBLITERATE ME.. I’M NOT READY YET PLEEAASSEE 😭
I saw an animatic with the demo audio of The Challenge the other day, and it was the first time I ever heard the song. I kid you not - it brought me to tears. JUST THE DEMO had me CRYING!

I am... so ready to hear the real Penelope!!! Im on the edge of my sest waiting. Happy holidays, Jorge!!
And thank you for the work you do on this musical concept. Fully into it now. Hook, line, and sinker.
Penelope's theme is the sound of "this is the love of my life". Like, it's so beautiful and heartfelt.
When I read the Odyssey in high school I vividly remember my take away was Penelope was the coolest and I loved her. I thought she was so strong and clever and level headed. The strength it takes to wait with confidence is staggering. Soooo excited for this dude!

I’m 14 and know nothing lol 😂 but I wanna make a cool mythological musical current name I’m still workshopping but I’m thinking MYTH the musical
Dude same lol I need that info 🤣
This is a man that knows he did what he loves and is proud that he is validated.
The fact that the most cheerful song in the Thunder Saga is called “Suffering” - really goes to show what being an Epic fan is like 😃😄😂
at this point every time i hear her motif im just going to start bawling. it is so beautiful i cannot even
Omg I CANT WAIT FOR THE CHALLENGE!!
I've been waiting for Penelope from the start!!! I can't wait to see her and the songs!!! I'm so excited!!!
Jorge, you are a musical genius, I'm so happy to be able to watch your journey with this, it's been an honor my friend!

I dont need christmas presents.
I need epic.
No need here. Absolutely love Penelope! I have been singing challenge so often my children have memorised it and sing it back. Her character is so underrated in so many retellings of the odyssey 😩❤️
Can't wait to cry during the watch party 😊

I love Penelope!!! And the idea of "fake" Penelope theme and the real one is sooo cool!!! We love you, Jorge!!! ❤️
Im so excited to hear her voice her motif has been one of my favorite its just so pretty and I'm not ready lol
I had absolute chills when her actual motif played…goosebumps!!
Oh trust me, we have been WAITING to finally hear from the real Penelope 😭
