I love how my music taste rn is wildly fluctuating between tired literature student listening to music and daydreaming about going back to the times they’re reading about in the illiad, lost in a magical forest certainly being led to their death by fay but following and dancing along anyways, and rebellious pirate captain who’s ratty but tight-knit crew wants to tear down capitalism.

Here is what they don’t tell you: Icarus laughed as he fell. Threw his head back and yelled into the winds, arms spread wide, teeth bared to the world. (There is a bitter triumph in crashing when you should be soaring.) The wax scorched his skin, ran blazing trails down his back, his thighs, his ankles, his feet. Feathers floated like prayers past his fingers, close enough to snatch back. Death breathed burning kisses against his shoulders, where the wings joined the harness. The sun painted everything in shades of gold. (There is a certain beauty in setting the world on fire and watching from the centre of the flames.) ~Fiona
I love how they use Icarus as what his metaphor is. Those young people who dance with danger, maybe driving carelessly, doing extreme sports, or simply drinking too much. Those are the real Icarus, the ones that, by going to an extreme, by "flying too close to the Sun" end up falling to "the sea".
@@xdudechillxx4490 !!! YES go for it. Taking Latin classes would be helpful but not necessary since most colleges offer entry-level Latin. Some degree programs require you study a language, and some don't, so be aware of what your college wants before you apply (e.i. if you don't want to be learning Latin or Greek, avoid places that force those). For now, def take some english classes or something that teaches reading/writing skills. There's a lot of lengthy (but very fun) essays to be read and written in classics. (also: my insta is andrew.j.adie if you want to talk about classics w me or want some more info!!)
Was listening to this whilst reading TSOA when Achilles just arrived in the plce where they prepared for war, the intro was so magnificent it gave me goosebumpss
I was searching for your video on this song yesterday and got worried something had happened, but I'm glad you followed the artist's wishes and took down the video, while also doing a new video on the song. You're the main source of "greek mythology music" for me with your high quality lyric videos!! Keep it up
It's interesting because having read The Iliad and The Song of Achilles Achilles' obsession with legacy and being immortalized by a glorious death in battle reminded me of Hamilton and this song
omfg, i nearly got a heart attack when i saw this video deleted! i’m very happy that it’s back and it’s very nice of you that you changed the picture in the background because the artist preferred it that way. Respect

Also, it lead you to find all these great songs with lyrics pertaining to Greek mythology🤷♀️
Hai, so you prbably wont see this, but theres another really good song called Icarus by the artist Ripto which has similar vibes to songs like this december, or out like a light. Might be interesting to post.
I'm writing a book about Icarus and Apollo 👀 Icarus survives his fall, crawling breathless and burnt onto the beach. Apollo is there. “Welcome home, my love.” He says.
Lyrics: Look who's digging their own grave That is what they all say; you'll drink yourself to death Look who makes their own bed, lies right down within it And what will you have left?

No-one tells you how death feels, for they only speak of the pain. The pain of loss, the pain of reaching and calling out into the darkness, knowing you will find yourself alone. The pain of guilt and failure within yourself. But what do the dead feel? Do they feel burdened, broken, or lost? Or do they accept their fate, laughing before they go, knowing that they are free? For me that answer was simple, as I felt myself fall from the wind lashing around me, my ears filled with the howling and wailing of of my father, and the sea that lay below me to which I would meet my fate, my head thrown back in pure laughter, as I let myself go, my mind echoing only one thing: Oh how good it feels to fall. To feel the sun upon my mortal flesh, wax cascading down my pale, luminous skin. To breathe in one last time as my eyes rested upon the God I loved, my eyes closing for what I knew to be for eternity, just before I hit the water, its icy cold hands grasping onto my flesh, pulling me under, as my life flashed before me. “Oh Apollo, Apollo”, I whispered just before I felt myself sink down, “ I know you have not forsaken me, nor have you broken me, even as I feel your sun burning me alive”. Sorry if its not that good 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Sometimes just like Icarus you must crawl to walk you must walk to run a from running you can jump but once you learn to fly you gotta know how far you can go before getting burn even with that risk of being burned, because every fire start with a spark and one way or the other you will remember me whether it's by how far I flew or how bright I burned By keys lol that's me

A tiktok user wrote it, I'll see if I can find them!
It took me three rewatches to realize that this is the band that wrote Pompeii
bastille is really great in general
Oh thats why they have the same vibe.
It took me one and I’m still dying of laughter
as a bastille fan: this tends to happen. people dont realise that the pompeii band and the happier band (and marshmello) are the same
I love how they use Icarus as what his metaphor is. Those young people who dance with danger, maybe driving carelessly, doing extreme sports, or simply drinking too much. Those are the real Icarus, the ones that, by going to an extreme, by "flying too close to the Sun" end up falling to "the sea".
