The fact that Polites dies so early on is terrible because Steven is literally the most precious person I’ve ever seen and he deserves more song time😂😂😂
This just NEEDS to happen PLUS!! We can get stories that happened out of the Odyssey and out of the musical and just have more to think about The POV of Polites on already known events and the extra stories brooo
@@arianewinter4266 Luke? Luke Castellan? You know, I really wish he were there for more of the parts... but I guess now that he's gone, that's what makes the other parts special, right?🥲
When I listened to the song I didn’t realize that he was the one who died so I was so confused when I never heard him in the other songs. I only found out because I saw an animatic about the song. I was DEVASTATED
There has to be a segment where we can tell him where we were and how we reacted when he died. I was at my grandma's when the saga dropped so I was like "no big deal, I'll just listen passively while talking to grandma" and we were mid conversation when he gets clubbed, I stopped mid sentence, told her I needed to step outside, re listened to confirm what happened, and was broken for a solid 5 before being able to move again. Devastating.
When he does that bit where he sits up with his hands like that my immediate thought was the "trade offer" meme Trade Offer: Steven: I play Polites You get: Vibes
PLEASE I HAVE TEARS IN MY EYES He's so wholesome he's the perfect Polities. I can't get over "If given the chance I would love to be Polities" that would be my reaction too I would not realize it 🤣🥰😭
Agreed. I was shocked to learn he was only a one-off character. He brought so much heart to an already good chracter. Which, I supposed, is in line with how Greek tragedies are meant to be portrayed. If you weren't invested, it wasn't much of a "tragedy," now would it?
This is my third time watching this and it’s one of my favorite things ever. I grin so much every single time and have to stop myself from laughing too hard.
We need to sign a petition for Steven to play all the parts and we need video footage of him switching places in the studio to play the different characters
I keep randomly saying “welcome” in an oddly demonic voice and i laugh at myself every time because i think back to this Edit: I’ve been just reading through the comments and every time theres a funny part i start dying.
. . . cant agreed, but I have more a Thing for deeper voices then high ones so while I really Like IT and find Steves Performance amazing . . . I am very very partial to lukes holts Zeus in the horse and the Infant"
I am a fifth grader, and I have been listening to epic since the beginning of 2023, but I love when we see and notice random things like "Great job, you're a liar!" and it always makes us laugh. However I think my favorite is when Odysseus threatens to burn the lotus eater's island, and we always say, "See? This life is amazing, when you threaten to burn their home. Whatever we face we can LIGHT UP THE WORLD here's how to start..." I just want to say how much I love this musical and how fun it is. Thank you!
Polites is the sweetest sunshine gay and when I realized that he died I'm "Survive" I was devastated because he is easily my favorite character. He's just such a happy go lucky character that brightens every room he's in and I want the world for him.
This makes Polites dying even more heartbreaking. WHY DO YOU LIKE TO TORTURE US WITH YOUR BEAUTIFUL PORTRAYAL OF EMOTIONS IN YOUR MUSIC JAYYYYY?! 😭😭 1:32 someone yelled “awwww” in the background. TOO STINKING CUTEEEEE
Aww, the video didn’t include the bit where you asked him to try to belt out the second chorus, he mutes himself first and all ya’ll see is him singing to himself but not hearing anything
HE IS THE MOST WHOLESOME HAPPY PERSON I HAVE EVER SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN OMG ❤❤❤❤😂😂Please when the musical 🎤 airs officially let him be part of the meet & greet 😊😊😊
steven's Polites is just too precious for this world. such a well cast role. i seriously can not stop singing along with the animatic to open arms, and was utterly charmed when i saw the short for the light duet
Oh my gods I nearly choked on my food listening to this and lemme tell ya, choking on rice is no fun. Any way, that is so sweet! I absolutely live for this kind of embodying the character, I love it what actors pretty much are their characters!
I love how this video is infused with the same vibes as "Open Arms". Like just talking about the song makes the whole interaction like the song. Thank you for this ❤❤❤ Jorge please write a song in 5/4 pleasepleaseplease. Also please finish the piano sheet for Luck Runs Out in Musescore 🥺🥺🥺
Angel voice: "Greet the world with open arms, greet the world with open arms!"
Goblin voice: " *WELCOME* "
I mean, isn't that just what life is? Angels and goblins.
Wonderful

"The vibes are immaculate" that pretty much sums up Polites character. Steven must be protected at all cost.
absolutely.
For sure :D !!
He is the purest of the beans
I will fight sword and shield to un-die him from Polyphemus.
I demand a remake of Epic just called Polities and it's just Polities telling wild stories of Oddyseus to Telemachus and playing all the parts
I am Not willing to sacrifice Luke as Zeus for this . . .

Polites is so innocent and pure in this musical, I audibly shouted "NO!" when he got clubbed to death in the Polyphemus scene... 😢
i had to pause the music and just stare at a wall i was in SHOCK

Polites will Be forever remembered❤
The fact that he wanted to be Polites so bad that he wore a sophisticated blazer to and audition😂
When he does that bit where he sits up with his hands like that my immediate thought was the "trade offer" meme
Trade Offer:
Steven: I play Polites
You get: Vibes
Omg I love this😂
Not just any vibes, but immaculate vibes, the greatest vibes of them all
Jorge:"Polites"
Subtitles: " pull the teeth"
"Pull the cheese"
I know this is an old comment but "im fine pull the cheese"
I got politics a few times somehow 😂
“Volunteer”
@@villalssounds like something an Italian chef would tell another Italian chef under rough circumstances
Steven is such a perfect Polites that the fandom practically adopted him the moment his snippets were released
I now need a recording of their actual reenactment of this, the suit the song, everything
Oh,myGod, y e s. I was thinking that exact thing throughout the entire video. I would absolutely l o v e to see that.
That makes all of us 😂
PLEASE I HAVE TEARS IN MY EYES He's so wholesome he's the perfect Polities. I can't get over "If given the chance I would love to be Polities" that would be my reaction too I would not realize it 🤣🥰😭
I HOPE STEVEN COMES BACK WITH A NEW ROLE!!! WE CANT WASTE THIS MAN
Where are the comments engaging this? Ow I gotta change this
We gotta have him back 😢
Agreed. I was shocked to learn he was only a one-off character. He brought so much heart to an already good chracter.
Which, I supposed, is in line with how Greek tragedies are meant to be portrayed. If you weren't invested, it wasn't much of a "tragedy," now would it?
I mean he did audition for Telemachus as seen on his TikTok page so who knows 🤷♂️(not to say it’s guaranteed but it sounds cool)
"THAT'S GREAT, STEVEN" LMFAO HAHAH
Him saying “I gotta call my mom!” is so wholesome omg 😭
there should be an "oops all polites" version of epic where it's just Steven singing all the songs
2:59 💀😂 I would've immediately been like "You're hired, literally whatever you want"
As soon as he said “welcome” I BURST out laughing 😂
So basically just how Polites would react in an interview
I legitimately almost died at the “WELCOME” part, I couldn’t breathe I was laughing so much
Off topic Jay seems like such a funny and genuine person to hang out with. If I could be friends with anyone it would definitely be him.
Same here! I'd love to be apart of Jay and his friend's group.
Same 😂
Honestly same
Same @@akirahatson2593
He's the perfect Polites, what a beautiful bean
steven is the most goofiest person ever and i love that about him.
He’s a literal golden retriever that’s trapped in a human’s body 😂
He sang every character, bless his heart! 😂😂
"Welcome friends. This is the goblin song. If you know the words, heck why dont you sing along."
That is so adorable how cute and nervous he was
"I love you bwt"
"I love you too!!"
i’d pay for a version of the musical that just has steven singing all of the parts
I feel like if I ever audition for something, I'll do the exact same out of panic🤣😅
This is my third time watching this and it’s one of my favorite things ever. I grin so much every single time and have to stop myself from laughing too hard.
Same XD
Fifth time for me!
Steven saying “I gotta call my mom” is so wholesome and even more so when you realize that she’s literally down stairs
He is made to be Polities So wholesome
As someone who has gone into an audition without having EVER auditioned before, Steven is me
i told my dad about epic and i was watching this on my TV and he said “ is that the guy who does epic?”
JUSTICE FOR POLITES, LET HIM GET MORE SONGS PLEASE!! He’s my favorite character :(( I love Open Arms so much. I miss Polites
Curse you, stupid Polyphemus!!!!
SAME DUDE 😭
Your wish was granted… 💔
@@Glenn_Diamond nah, I cried hearing Polites voice in the underworld saga💔
