To anyone interested in listening to music inspired by Ancient Greece, I'd suggest giving a band called Daemonia Nymphe a chance.

Achilles Achilles... He'll forever be my favorite greek god, well... Demi-god. His story in The song of Achilles made me melt like the snow in spring. The way he'd do anything for his lover Patroclus has me believe in goodness and love. The way he wasn't only fighting his enemy for his ego, but for the ones he love. His hope in becoming the first happy hero everyone will admire and his beautiful way to talk. I could talk about that boy and his pretty golden hair for hours. He's also pretty realistic to real life, he's not like the others. He's, different and special. Sometimes, the think of him make me want all of these greek mythology to exist. I wish he lived, i wish his story was true. I'm sure of if he was real he'd change the aspects of life for everyone, i hope people will figure out how much he deserve the attention of the world. I'm rambling in my talk right now, but i cant stop talking Achilles, and of course, Patroclus my dear. They both deserve better.

[@F1guRas]

No way! I has no idea how much he reminds me of myself… I hardly knew anything from him and the things I heard where that he was ruthless, but thats not true right? After all, I also just want to be different from others, for the better! I just want to be a hero to all and show everyone how important you can be to people when you are happy.

[@C0ll1sxx]

@@F1guRas yes, Achilles is honestly kind of ruthless. But he IS the son of Thetis and his mom never was rlly passionate or yk that stuff. Although he could have decided to change but meh. I like Achilles but he is not the good guy in any story. Though, the only person he isn’t ruthless with is his lover Patroclus which is actually good. With all the Greek relationships of abuse and rape, Achilles is the most gently and kind lover I’d say.

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 humour 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 And 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, my opinion you've got (No one asked your opinion) You asked for my counsel, I gave you my thoughts (No one asked for your thoughts) Be done with this now and jump off the roof (Be done with this now 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 Midas (Skott) Lyrics: 7:05 Midas, you've got me thinking 'bout the story You've everything you've ever wanted But will you ever get to hold me? Doesn't it get lonely? And Midas, you're used to hearing that you're something Above the ordinary, golden You wanna be the one and only Doesn't it get lonely? But you won't get away with it No, you won't get away with it 'cause I I look at you, I'm seeing that you're just as lost as I Know, I'm not afraid of it No, I'm not afraid to close my eyes Oh, how I wish that there's was a way that we could Always, always live for always Till we die together Say you want to be here You wanna be young You wanna be my love Always be in my love Say that you remember Feeling the same about me Midas, you've got me thinking 'bout the legends You know you'll join 'em up in heaven But if you stay with me, no hurry I will make it worth it Midas, you're like a monument, a statue No man on earth could ever hurt you No, you don't ever have to worry Why do I still worry? And you won't get away with it No, you won't get away with it 'cause I I look at you, I'm seeing that there's something in your eyes Saying you're afraid of it Saying you're afraid of passing time Oh, how I wish that there's was a way that we could Always, always live for always Till we die together Say you want to be here You wanna be young You wanna be my love Always be in my love Say that you remember Feeling the same about me Always, always live for always Till we die together Say you want to be here You wanna be young You wanna be my love Always be in my love Say that you remember Feeling the same about me Icarus & Apollo (Ripto) Lyrics: 11:05 Apollo showed me the sun Told me not to fly too close Or else I would be one With the people on the land Icarus, show me the moon Point me in a new direction Far away from you Avoiding all the aftermath Daylight shuffles in Cascading through the open door And dancing on your lips Where you held your cigarette I remember when You told me you were afraid to die And then you grabbed my hand Just above the kitchen table So, Apollo, bring me back To the place I was before I met you And Icarus, lead the way To where I need to go I hear your footsteps now Barefoot soles on the bathroom floor And on my way out I told you I would never leave

He stood upon the precipice, upon a cliff of dizzying descent with a fall into raging waters and jagged granite spears. Or was it a another kind of precipice? That of deranged lucidity, a paradox, understanding amidst the madness of it all. Blood spattered his form. His flesh, sculpted as if from marble, was tainted by ichor of lesser men. But were they truly lesser? They must have been, they had lost, and he had won after all. Is that not so? He glanced back at the carnage he had wrought, at the tomes of untold stories left behind in the corpses of his foes. "Perhaps it isn't so." His voice was as smooth as honey, salted with the dregs of Olympus itself. *"We liken you to a painting, did you know? Strokes of ink belaying what it is to be so utterly mortal."* He turned, eyeing the green-feathered owl perched upon the rocks nearby. "You again..." He shook his head. "I am no painting." *"Then what are you?"* The wind howled as if in mourning. It carried with it the stench of death, and tragedy... and *war* . "A museum," he replied softly. "A museum of all the things I wish to forget." The creature did not respond, only watching as the soldier wrenched his sarissa free from the rock he had embed it in. Watching as he turned away from the cliff's edge, and walked towards the sounds of ringing steel and dying men once more.

[@jdean3576]

so “Achilles, Come Down” became THE song for me and my first real love and i think it’s especially heartbreaking considering how things ended because we still love each other, but events in life pulled us apart and we both met each other at what we thought was our darkest point…and anytime one of us was struggling we would write “soldier on, Achilles” on each others wrists, and now i write it on my own wrist and wonder if he does the same.

[@lc5286]

Hey everyone, it's nice to see how many people like Greco-Roman mythology! Where I'm from there's a kind of school that focuses on classical studies, so we study ancient Greek and Latin as well as classical literature and culture. It's a difficult kind of school but it's so worth it, to be able to actually read the Iliad or the Odyssey, but also the tragedies, comedies and poems in general. I encourage you to discover what the past has in hold for you; only the gods know how much beauty and how much philosophy is out there waiting to be enjoyed by yet another soul, eager to make you grow, to confort you and gift you emotions from 2500 years ago. Beware though, most myths are quite raw, as they reflect human nature; so do not expect song of Achilles or Percy Jackson family friendly stuff. So yeah, go to the library and contribute to the immortality of ancient gods, heroes and poets; because it's thanks to us, the readers, that they are still alive to this day

[@nyx1016]

sameee it’s beautiful 😭💗

[@dragon9261]

Not to go way into a song that justs about falling for a girl and feeling not good enough for her HOWEVER its very intersting how the song title is "Persephone" but its basically about the dude who loves her, not persephone herself, its about HIS feelings about her, how HE is seen by the world and her, what HIS actions are. Its incredibly similar to the story of Persephone herself, the myth story is about how she marries HADES, how she is kidnapped by the MEN around her, how she eats the pomegranate so that she stays with HIM. Regardless of if Persephone chooses what happens to her, her major story is still more about the men in her life, about those that control her life (Zeus and Demeter for example) rather than Persephone herself. Idk its 12am where I am and I've been studying developmental psych for the last 3 hours so alittle brain dead. But still I think its interesting!

Persephone (Tamino) Lyrics: 14:05 Yes my love, I confess to you I am only here to break your heart in two The very flower you chose that day Its only task was to decay You see? When I watched your first bathing I only warned you with a lowered voice "Be wary of my river's undertow It flows with water from the coldest source" Did you hear? And then I made sure You would always return You still know of dawn But you always return When you hid under my black wings They couldn't have protected you from anything Once in flight they would have let go You would have once again wound up below Only broken Indeed, it's wrong to keep you near me One could call me cruel and deceiving But in your sacred air I am full of light Your loving arms are the true delight To which I'm lost And you've noticed it There is something right here You have come to love, yes you've come to love What you always will fear (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Yes, my love, I confess to you I've nothing but the means to break your heart in two My part in yours may seem important now But with every spring it will seem so small Just for now I am your fall I am your fall I am your fall Aphrodite (Honey Gentry) Lyrics: 19:15 Aphrodite, hear my prayer Sunset rays in my golden hair Palm tree dreams in my words and songs How can my pleas be so wrong Aphrodite, hear my pain I want to fall in love again Not in love with a man of this world Fall in love with life itself Aphrodite, set me free Find a way to let me leave As the future, it unfolds I leave the past and turn to gold Angel baby, I hear ur cries Wipe those tears from ur eyes I'll protect ur broken heart Blossom brings you brand new start Angel turn your eyes to the sea Gaze upon such vast beauty Know your prayers have been received I work upon them while you dream Two Men in Love (The Irrepressible) Lyrics: 22:25 If I asked you now Will you be my prince? Will you lay down your armour And be with me forever? When you open me All the power in me moves How you want to see All the depths of me real When you open me All the power in me moves I feel real I love you, love you I love you, love you When I look into your eyes There's a danger inside When I see the edge I can never hide See me running, running, running, running, running Running, running, running, running, running Running, running, running, running, running To you, from you, to you There's a strange love inside It's getting louder, and louder, and louder, and louder, and louder There's a danger I can't hide Who I am, it's who I am It's who I am, it's who I am I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love Gonna build you up, gonna help you believe sonny Gonna build you up, gonna help you believe sonny It's getting louder, and louder, and louder, and louder, and louder There's a danger I can't hide It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love

Thank you so much for this. I just finished reading The Song Of Achilles and I am now lost in a depression because of it 😭 This playlist is helping me process all the emotions that are overwhelming me. It’s like a hollow despair of sadness and depression that I don’t know how or if I will ever come out of.. I’ve had real life crises that I’ve had to go to therapy for and I just cant believe a book has thrown me back into a state that I thought only a traumatic ‘real life’ experience could ever make someone feel. It is so deep and raw.

I finished this book last summer, and I still can't recover from it 🥲 The story is so beautifully written, and it was just what I needed back then.

My application as your friend/girlfriend: (cuz i don’t know anyone who shares my interests, probably because i live in the middle of nowhere) I‘m 17, obsessed with greek mythology and with music. I love music and i need it like 24/7. I love just walking through the nature until i‘m absolutely lost and then i get scared because i think a serial killer is gonna find me. (that part isn’t so funny, i admit) but my dog always comes along and she’s really scary (not at all, she’s a labrador with more golden retriever energy than a golden retriever). I hate snakes. I would like to like them but my phobia says no. Besides that, i love all animals. Even tho as a kid i suspected that every animal i came across was actually Zeus in disguise. How do I explain that to a therapist? I definitely need one. Anyways. I also love writing, poetry and books (are they bad? yes. will i stop? no) I also love painting and reading and board games and video games and long talks in bed until the birds start singing again because it’s the best time of the day to talk. I‘m always a tiny bit late, even when i leave the house an hour early. I love baking, my parents hate when i bake. So i always bake and then hide what i made which sounds really stupid because it is. I absolutely want to move out but i‘m broke because i buy too many books and i‘m also have to finish school before i have time for life again. (which i hate. School, not life) Anyways. like, comment this comment if you wanna be friends or something (sorry for oversharing btw) :)

my application to be ur friend: im recently getting back into reading abt greek mythology so i might know much cause i left it all behind cause my friends don’t rlly pay much attention to that sort of stuff and plus religion. I can’t live without music like as soon as i wake up i put in my headphones and listen to whatever playlist i see first. I love walking thru nature but am lazy to😭 yes we exist lmaoo. i love talking to animals for some reason cause i always believe they listen to me (i may be crazy😛) i also had a whole thing of tryna to fit in which is why i put a lot of things i like to the side (greek mythology as an example.) i love drawing even tho i always have art block lmaoo, i love writing stories and i do have a book that i’m tryna to write, i love poetry even tho i told everyone i don’t like it. (another example of me tryna to fit in). i’m always late cause i have to try on 3 different outfits/shirts to see if it goes with the day😭i love talking and ain’t afraid to say something. anyways i hope we can be friends and i think i over shared a bit😭
