- POV: you relive memories as you reunite with your soulmate
======================================================
Achilles
Achilles
Achilles come down, won't you
Get up off
Get up off the roof?
You're scaring us
And all of us
Some of us love you
Achilles, it's not much but there's proof
You crazy assed cosmonaut
Remember your virtue
Redemption lies plainly in truth
Just humor us
Achilles
Achilles come down
Won't you get up off
Get up off the roof
Achilles
Achilles
Achilles come down, won't you
Get up off
Get up off the roof?
The self is not so weightless
Nor whole and unbroken
Remember the pact of our youth
Where you go
I'm going
So jump and I'm jumping
Since there is no me without you
Soldier on
Achilles
Achilles come down
Won't you get up off
Get up off the roof?
Loathe the way they light candles in Rome
But love the sweet air of the votives
Hurt and grieve but don't suffer alone
Engage with the pain as a motive
Today of all days
See
How the most dangerous thing is to love
How you will heal and you'll rise above
Achilles
Achilles
Achilles
Jump now
You are absent of cause
Or excuse
So self-indulgent
And self-referential
No audience could ever want you
You crave the applause
Yet hate the attention
Then miss it, your act is a ruse
It is empty, Achilles
So end it all now
It's a pointless resistance
For you
Achilles
Achilles
Just put down the bottle
Don't listen to what you've consumed
It's chaos, confusion
And wholly unworthy
Of feeding and it's wholly untrue
You may feel no purpose
Nor a point for existing
It's all just conjecture and gloom
And there may not be meaning
So find one and seize it
Do not waste yourself on this roof
Hear those bells ring deep in the soul
Chiming away for a moment
Feel your breath course frankly below
See life as a worthy opponent
Today of all days
See
How the most dangerous thing is to love
How you will heal and you'll rise above
Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
Ah, it's more courageous to overcome
You want the acclaim
The mother of mothers (it's not worth it Achilles)
More poignant than fame
Or the taste of another (don't listen Achilles)
But be real and just jump
You dense motherfucker (you're worth more, Achilles)
You will not be more
Than a rat in the gutter (so much more than a rat)
You want my opinion (no one asked your opinion)
My opinion you've got
You asked for my counsel (no one asked for your thoughts)
I gave you my thoughts
Be done with this now (Be done with this now)
And jump off the roof (And get off the roof)
Can you hear me Achilles?
I'm talking to you
I'm talking to you
I'm talking to you
I'm talking to you
Achilles come down
Achilles come down
Throw yourself into the unknown
With pace and a fury defiant
Clothe yourself in beauty untold
And see life as a means to a triumph
Today of all days
See
How the most dangerous thing is to love
How you will heal and you'll rise above
Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
Ah, it's more courageous to overcome

thank you
"And you, Patroclus? You are worthy?"
not me remembering Briseis screams at Achilles "He was worth ten of you. Ten! And you sent him to his death!", "You have never deserved him. I do not know why he ever loved you. You care only for yourself!"
briseis is truly an underrated charater
@@gradient_rei I loved her so much ahhhhhh
Patroclus is Achilles's so Briseis can be our bride-she-is :)))
briseis the woman that you are
this is making me realizes i was pronouncing half of the names wrong when i read Song of Achilles...
Not you alone bro🙂
Same, my speech issues didn’t help(I slightly have them as I think)
To be fair, people with English accents tend to mispronounce foreign names, including ancient Grecian names. So the closest to the correct pronunciation you'll get is how the Greek pronounce it but even then it could be off, old and modern English don't sound that similar either and ancient Grecian is way older than old English.
@@nataliiroobasRight! For instance, they pronounce the I in PRIAM like you do in the word IDEA. It should be pronounced like the I in KING (I am Greek and that's how we say them. The modern Greek way is the closest you can get since we do not know exactly how they pronounced the words in the Homeric - not to mention the Mycenaean - language.
Fr tho lol
"...he smiled, and his face was like the sun."
"Achilles’ eyes were bright in the firelight, his face drawn sharply by the flickering shadows. I would know it in dark or disguise, I told myself. I would know it even in madness."
"I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world."
"His trust was a part of him, as much as his hands or his miraculous feet. And despite my hurt, I would not wish to see it gone, to see him as uneasy and fearful as the rest of us, for any price."
"I had seen the way he looked at Deidameia; or rather the way he did not. It was the same way he had looked at the boys in Phthia, blank and unseeing. He had never, not once, looked at me that way."
“What has Hector ever done to me?”
“My life is my reputation,” he says. His breath sounds ragged. “It is all I have. I will not live much longer. Memory is all I can hope for.”
"There is no fame greater than this-you will prove to them all that your phantom is more powerful than Agamemnon’s whole army."
"His tears fall, but I cannot wipe them away."
“My consolation is that we will be together in the underworld. That we will meet again there, if not in this life. I would not wish to be there without her.”
“I have done it,” she says. At first I do not understand. But then I see the tomb, and the marks she has made on the stone. ACHILLES, it reads. And beside it, PATROCLUS.
“Go,” she says. “He waits for you.”
In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun."
*"I will never leave him. It will be this, always, for as long as he will let me."*
The Song of Achilles has changed my life. This is the most beautiful book I have ever read, enjoyed, and felt. It will take me forever to find another one that could even come close to what this book has made me experience.
Edit: I made a playlist, because I love this book so much. Here it is: ua-cam.com/video/SP7fbLUUJP4/v-deo.html
Fellow INFJ!!
Link doesnt work
“Dear gods, let him not hate me”
😭
The line "I am made of memories." hit so fucking hard.
Not me sobbing all over again like I did when I first read The Song of Achilles in quarantine, December 2020. I could not put the book down and although I knew the ending, I still could not stop the tears when Patroclus passed, but the ending! This new ending was so beautiful it inspired me to finally start my own novel set in the Hellenistic period. Madelline Miller brought to life what I and so many others knew to be true when we first read/studied The Illiad, and I still thank her years later for her amazing contribution. Today I'm still reading her other book, Circe, but I promise I'll eventually finish it! :)
May I ask, what is the name of your novel? If you finish it ofc hehe
@@kentguiller Oh! I forgot all about this comment it’s been so long 😂 My book is still not finished because I’ve actually been working on a Tapas novel, but it’ll be called “Hera’s Envy.” I hope to finish the first draft before the end of this year, though! My Tapas novel takes precedence because I’m under a contract with it right now 😅 The webnovel is called “OMEGA Magazine,” and is not at ALL like my Greek book (it’s a contemporary romcom set in the omegaverse).
Holy shit. That pairing of "Name one hero who was happy" with the grave stone names broke me. Well done
The thing that rlly killed me while reading TSOA is realizing the parallel between page 46 and page 323. 46, Patroclus asks Achilles to fight him to which he says “I will not. Do not ask me again”. 323, Patroclus asks Achilles to fight for him and the people, Achilles says “I will not do this. Do not ask again”
They way you changed the "name a hero who was happy" quote I'M SOBBING
I remember reading the Song of Achilles in 7th grade, I still cry whenever I think back on how good it was.
ITS SO PERFECT, THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS
Thank you so much❣️✨
I soooo love that you added the joy quote after the urn quote. It soothed the pain this book gave me
YESS THANK YOU FOR NOTICING!! This is how sad TSOA fans cope lmao
What is the urn quote and the joy quote?
@@justaperson6922 the urn quote is the last few sentences of the book but I added a little something more hehe
Crying at 2am because I love them sm
I wanna be loved the way they love eachother
They deserve the world
finally someone who understands my pain =(.. the first 10 min after i found a tiktok about them i changed both phone backgrounds and discord profile picture to patroclus and achilles, not to mention i just bought the iliad and the song of achilles after 2 days, am i a little too obsessed?
@@fade6090SAME HERE 😭
@@DecemberHeath The book is adorable, hope you finish it soon if you havent already, best of luck and happiness in ur life ahead
this is so painfully beautiful,, stumbled across this at 3am and safe to say,, im sobbing. i found this book during a time i needed it most,, 2019 and i still find myself attached to it like no other ☹️

Everything honey...
okay WOW i did not know i needed this, but now i am extra emo and extremely thankful that you created this piece of art
I have cried when hear them :(((
that was BEAUTIFUL. had me bawling my eyes out the entire time
I just read this book, I loved it, but can someone explain to me where this quote is supposed to be?? Cause I read the damn thing and did not find it.
“I would recognize you in total darkness, were you mute and I deaf. I would recognize you in another lifetime entirely, in different bodies, in different times. And I would love you in all of this, until the very last star in the sky burnt out into oblivion.”
i tried looking around on TSOA and couldn't find it and someone on reddit said it's from a fanfiction of the book that Madeline Miller retweeted
Thank you so muxh for this❤️❤️
OMG OMG
Oh no i am crying AGAIN
I just finished it, and I'm still crying. So beautiful! Quick question: The last quote in the video ("we were like gods…but the other") was in TSOA book?
@@ChFirefox06 yup! It's from the book. It's from the Mt. Pelion part iirc
@gradient_rei ok, thanks! I think that quote would be perfect in the end, where Patroclus describes his reunion with Achilles. Still beautiful book, though!
thank you. i am now a crying mess.
That was soon beautiful, thank you
FAB!
I'm made of memories
I NEED TO LISTEN TO THIS. WHERE DONI LISTEN TO IT
If you're talking about the audiobook check my pinned comment
MY LAST STRAW
No one can escape death
Where can I find more content like this? I love this sooooo much but can’t find it anywhere esle
May I have your voice, your thoughts, and your words. 🙇🏽♂️ Please I do not want to take them. 😞
❤
I'm not sure what you mean sorry
It’s a perfect edit 😭
it's taken me this long to figure out it's pronounced Pat-Ro-clus and not Patro-Clees
I still can't pronounce Patroclus' name consistently
F Romeo and juliet I want what they have
Same
Does anyone know where I can find the audio? I used to listen to it and never finished, but when I tried to listen to it again a while ago, it wasn’t anywhere. Was it really removed?
I’m not sure if the uploaders deleted them or if youtube was the one that took them down. Check my pinned comment if you want to listen to TSOA audiobook with Frazer Douglas as the narrator.
@@gradient_rei oh my God thank you so much. He was the only won I wanted to listen to because I came to associate his voice with the book, and it’s just soothing. Thanks!
@@CarbonatedCondensation Same! His narration just hits different. I lost count of how many times his narration of this audiobook was took down in youtube.
Oh my god I just finished it a few minutes ago. I can’t. It’s so good.
I am embarrassed for myself, I mispronounced most of the words in my mind, I, yeah. 😶
I need to know we’re can I watch/hear or read this I need to know plzzzzzz
