It’s just…it’s that Telemachus spent his entire life under the shadow, legacy, AND distant protection afforded to the son of THE Odysseus, while also being a target because of it. It’s the determined love his mother has for this man he’s never known, buying Odysseus time. It’s the speechlessness that comes with coming face-to-face with the hero, the LEGEND, he’s built up in his mind that’s the towering opposite to all the suitors who’ve invaded his home and tormented him. And it’s Telemachus realizing that, this is also just a haggard man who has loved him and loved him and still loves him. That he doesn’t NEED to be someone legendary to match up and prove himself (to be approved of) by his father. After all this time, all the older men who bullied (and plan to kill) him, he’s faced with all he’s ever truly wanted from this father he doesn’t remember. And it’s Odysseus’ unconditional love that has driven him for 20 years, finally bringing back the very best of this very human man back to the forefront.
@@Fruity_one "When the fire's burned; when the wind has blown; when the water's dried, you'll still find stone; my heart of stone" Ah a person of taste!
The fact that you can hear the joy and relief in Odysseus' voice when he says "my son, I'm finally home!" 😭 He's waited 20 years to say those words and now he finally got his chance to.
“My son, I’m finally home!” That’s Odysseus’s war cry. That’s what he fought for. He never fought to win, to take over, to have a name in the world. He fought for his family. He fought so that he could get home. He fought for his wife and son. And now, after 20 years, he finally made it home to his now adult son. I haven’t read the Odyssey yet, but I plan to, and I’m very much prepared to cry when I read their reunion. My eyes stung throughout this song, but those last words made the tears stream. Epic is a masterpiece and deserves so much more attention. I can’t wait for this song to be released.
i love the fact that as soon as odysseus sees his son, the second he lays eyes on him, he loves him. odysseus hasn't even seen this boy since he was an infant, and he doesn't know who telemachus actually is. despite this, odysseus loves him immediately, and for the sole fact that telemachus is odysseus's son. it brings tears to my eyes everytime.
Odysseus has spenty literally decades trying to get back to his family, to his wife and son. And when he gets home, he doesn't find his infant son, but a twenty year old, a young man. He doesn't know this man, he can only imagine what he's seen and heard and experienced. And it doesn't matter to him. That man is his son. Twenty years have done nothing to diminish his love, and he loves this grown stranger with all the save love he had for that baby twenty years ago
The fact that he was afraid that his son suffered while he s been through so much and suffered a millions time more shows how a parents love is above everything
I'm sure with how familiar everyone is familiar with how masterful 'Epic' is by now, most people could pick up the use of piano and guitar to show their unison. It starts with the piano for Telemachus being played along with the small melodic phrase that keeps repeating within the song. Then, the nylon string acoustic guitar representative of Odysseus's vulnerability being played within his half of the song, and in the big hug at the end, you can hear both the piano and guitar playing harmoniously on the same melodic line of Telemachus' section. BRO I BAWLED.
I am definitely crying. Odysseus' words seem to perfectly encapsulate how it feels to be a parent. The ends you would go to for them. How proud you are of everything they do. Yep definitely sobbing here.
The almost wild glee, happiness and utterly and absolute delight on his voice and face when Odysseus says “My son, I’m finally home!” absolutely made my heart explode with joy in the best way. As @percyswife4ever brilliantly states, this is his War Cry. This is his soul roaring in delight, his ultimate victory. EVERYTHING he did was to return home and his almost uncontrolled joy just makes its all the more beautiful. We all deserve a father like Odysseus.
I truly hope this is still how it ends. With how song 38 sounded, I wasn’t sure he’d have the ending Homer wrote. If this is still the vision, I’m telling you right now that I will cry. A happy ending is rare. Let this 2000 year old story receive one in its musical adaptation.
GUYS IM FUCKING SOBBING. I CAN'T BE WAYCHUNG THIS RN. I LOVE JAY BUT MAN CAN HE FUCK UP MY NIGHT WITH ONE GOOD SONG😭 THIS SONG IS SO GOOD AND I FEEL LIKE IM GOING TO EXPLODE AND TURN INTO GLITTER HELP
The only thing that didn't make me burst into tears was the fact that I had the idea at a moment similar to this to play the melody of the song Open Arms, with Ody saying something along the lines of life being amazing now that he's back home. Okay, maybe I'm not over that death TuT Sorry if there are any mistakes, I needed a translator to comment on this :)
I didn’t cry during Hamilton, I didn’t cry when I heard Just a Man, but this song… this song made me burst into tears. Just the thought of being away from one of my parents like that, or being in Odysseus’ place just makes me sob
LYRICS: (spoken) Father? All my life I have died to meet you Thought about your name so much it hurts For twenty years I dreamt of how I’d greet you Oh, and now you’re here I can’t find the words All my life, I have died to know you Days and nights I wish that I could show you For twenty years I never could outgrow you Oh, and now you’re here I can’t help but wonder What your world must be If we’re like each other If I have your strength in me I can’t help feel like Sorrow’s all I’ve known And I can’t help but realize For so long I’ve felt alone *Odysseus:* Oh, my son, look how much you’ve grown Oh, my boy, sweetest joy I’ve known Twenty years ago I held you in my arms How time has flown, oh Used to say I’d make the storm clouds cry for you Used to say I’d capture wind and sky for you Held you in my arms, prepared to die for you Oh, how time has flown I can only wonder What your world has been Things you’ve had to suffer And the strength you hold within All I’ve wanted was to reunite with my own Twenty years we’ve wandered But today you’re not alone My son, I’m finally home!
Oh I can’t tell you how I long to see this seen fully animated by someone, there’s tons of animatics already for warrior of the mind. Odysseus’ story is probably my favorite Greek myth for all the hardships, sacrifices, and losses he suffered before finally making it home, hugging his son’s neck, seeing his dog one last time, and reuniting with his beloved and ever faithful Penelope. It’s the only story that ends happily for all involved from that era.
@@Savagewolver WolfyTheWitch did a rough animatic of the last couple verses of this song (Odysseus' part) and it's really good! There's also a ton more animatics for all of the other released songs and for songs that aren't officially out yet! You should check them out :D
I was listening to this snippet and at the end when Odysseus goes "my son I'm finally home!" I started sobbing because there was something about it that was so beautiful
Ooo- I love the lines about the storm and the winds because he HAS done all of that! He went to the god of the winds for help against the storms. He evaded Poseidon across the ocean. He faced down Zeus and LIVED. He has faced the storms and the sea and the sky all for this moment. 😭 Also, the little piano bit reminds me of Athena's distinctive bit as well which I like because Athena has had such a mark on both of their lives over the last 20 years. Helping turn Odysseus into the man he was when he wed Penelope, Troy and the war, befriending Telemachus when Odysseus was away, helping Odysseus escape Calypso's island... she has had so much influence on so many moments that all piled up on top of each other just to get to this. And Odysseus' return isn't just a return to his home. In a way, it's a way for him to try and return to the man he was before all the fire and flames of Troy and his journey back across the oceans. It's the chance he's been longing for to return to that bright, eager, young man whom Athena first mentored and, in turn, to pass that legacy on to his son.
First motif was - i believe - the starting guitar of “just a man” in strings, some what modified. Atleast it’s what i heard. The second motif might be the first few notes of Athena’s motif, the one that played whenever she appeared
I cried listening to this song... I usually don't cry even when I listen to the saddest songs, especially when the song includes the story I already know. But this made an exception. I already have known this whole story since I was just 7 years old, and I cried so hard not knowing why. I only cry when something touches one of my old pains, and I can't figure out what this song touched among them. It is so confusing.
When I read "I meeting for on and a reunion for another" I started to tear up, hearing and SEEING how emotional the song is and how it effected Jay made me really cry 😭❤️
Man if I ever get to see this live, I am going to be sobbing so hard. If it's this bad from behind a screen just imagine how bad it would be if I was there.
Oh my gods I’m crying stop Jorge stop I’m literally crying stop it STOP IT As someone whose mother died when I was too little to remember anything but one wayward memory of her, I’m on the verge of full on sobbing. I can’t help but imagine this is how it’d go if we ever met, and it’s digging up so many unprocessed and repressed emotions in me I’m not sure how to handle it. Jorge is a fucking genius, and we, as a community, all love him.
Hey! Epic isn't out yet but there's many clips and songs( reuploads from some events, clips combine by fans). I'm pretty sure theres "whole musical" on youtube made from both released sagas and clips from songs that aren't out yet!
The Odyssey has a happy ending for Odysseus, he doesn't die in it (but in a later version) Probably Jorge's Epic ends in the same way as the Odyssey so there is no death for the protagonist.
@@locusta-bw2vd there’s many versions of the myth, but as far as I’m aware Homer’s version is the oldest copy we have. That is the version where he stays a year with Circe and they she becomes pregnant Odysseus does not know this as he leaves. His son by Circe, Telegonus goes on a journey to find his father having his spear that has now been altered to be better and gets lost much like Odysseus did on his journey. He lands in his father’s kingdom to raid it for food for his journey and unknowingly kills his father. Odysseus recognizes his own spear in his death.
@@naturekinkatartist9292Telegonus wasn’t in the original Odyssey by Homer. Telegonus was introduced in the Telegony, which was a lost poem that wasn’t written by Homer, but another Roman poet. The original Odyssey ends with a happy ending where Odysseus reunites with his wife and son.

this is going to make me cry, thank you

I'm not crying but if I saw this live or on stage I definitely would. My heart of stone is definitely cracking though.
"My heart of stone"

When dad comes back with the milk:
Why is this so funny, lol I feel bad for laughing😂
PFFT
Hermes would approve of this joke
I mean, if you think about it, The Odyssey and this whole musical is a story about a dad going on a long, hard journey to come back with the milk.

Jay made a mistake
He wrote a song so emotional that he couldnt help but show us most of it
Don’t worry, he will show the entire thing one day.
But I don’t think I’ll be able to stand and watch the entire thing…
I see the joke lol

Odysseus went through all that, fought monsters, gods, he sacrificed all his men, all this just to get home to his son and wife.

LYRICS:
(spoken) Father?
All my life I have died to meet you
Thought about your name so much it hurts
For twenty years I dreamt of how I’d greet you
Oh, and now you’re here
I can’t find the words
All my life, I have died to know you
Days and nights I wish that I could show you
For twenty years I never could outgrow you
Oh, and now you’re here
I can’t help but wonder
What your world must be
If we’re like each other
If I have your strength in me
I can’t help feel like
Sorrow’s all I’ve known
And I can’t help but realize
For so long I’ve felt alone
*Odysseus:*
Oh, my son, look how much you’ve grown
Oh, my boy, sweetest joy I’ve known
Twenty years ago I held you in my arms
How time has flown, oh
Used to say I’d make the storm clouds cry for you
Used to say I’d capture wind and sky for you
Held you in my arms, prepared to die for you
Oh, how time has flown
I can only wonder
What your world has been
Things you’ve had to suffer
And the strength you hold within
All I’ve wanted was to reunite with my own
Twenty years we’ve wandered
But today you’re not alone
My son, I’m finally home!

That last line makes me sob every single time and it's such a good cry and,,, i just know I'm going to be ugly crying so much when this is released
Omg I’m actually crying. It’s been a long time since a piece of music has done that

20 years in total. 10 years during the Trojan war, 10 years on his way back
It’s too wholesome for me to handle..

I always tear up on "My son, I'm finally home!"
This is the victory of Odysseus.
im sobbing
My emotions 😭😭
thank you so much for putting all the clips together!
aaaand I'm crying. I can't wait for the final release of this for the concept album. It's going to make me cry even harder.
Dang that was quick. Thanks for the update to this song.
All his work is on repeat lol
Man if I ever get to see this live, I am going to be sobbing so hard. If it's this bad from behind a screen just imagine how bad it would be if I was there.
I’m sobbing, and I think this killed me!
Im not crying, you're crying 😢 oh my gooosh. I legit feel my heart in my chest.
This is incredible!! I can't wait!!!
My evil, evil black heart has just cracked a little
Odysseus didn't lie he captured wind and sky to see telemachus
18, 19 and 20 just dropped.....so...were getting double that?! Bet!!!
Who put these onions here
Bawling my eyes Jorge if I catch you
This song is so beautiful I actually started crying
Telemachus to Oddyseus.
sobbing

Wait, if this is song 39 doesn't that mean it's the second to last song in the whole musical (aren't there 40 songs for the whole musical?)
Odysseus and Penelope wouldn't have a proper reunion before this song, so that's probably the last song
U r so beautiful this is beautiful
I am crying
Anyone got the chords of this? zzz.
you are doing a great job
2:20 , Ody, GIVE HIM THE BAG OF WIND!!!! lol sorry guys, i can't help it.
Please please! Someone tell me that this song will be officially release. I need this so bad :,(((
