For some reason, every time I hear Luke singing "I don't care where our parents may be, so as long as you are here with me" always makes me feel sad. Because he did care where his dad was. The whole thing happened because a bunch of half-bloods didn't feel important. The way Luke sings it sounds so desperate, and I always feel a twinge at my heart, because in the end, he died thinking his dad still hated him.

I love the slight instrumental shifts. The harmonica is great, plus the key shifts.. piano with Katie, bells with Silena, pipes for Grover, introduction of tambourine, Chiron’s subtle piano, the shift in key with Percy...it gives it a nice personality for each character.

[@Certification_Achieved]

Whoa I didn’t notice that! I’m gonna listen for it on my next listen

[@littlemsterious991]

I think what I really love about this song is, they've all got different types of problems. Silena and Katie's moms are annoying and in Silena's case kinda rude. On the other hand, Luke and Annabeth's godly parents could probably even be considered neglectful. But you know what? Not once did anyone say, "your problems aren't valid" or "aren't that bad." Everyone respected that they've each got their own stuggles and problems. In the words of Sally Jackson, "Everyone has issues they're dealing with."

[@Abby-mf5pu]

THIS SONG IS SO CATCHY I STG

[@lorelikesthings]

i like to think that after the PJO series was over, the Apollo cabin made Percy and everyone else do this, with Will and Nico directing, Austin doing the music, and Katie as cheographer, and they just made Annabeth be in charge of the swordfighting scenes, and Nico volunteered to be Luke. Then, once it was ready, they told Chiron to see if the gods would be willing to come down to see it or if they could go up to Mt. Olympus to perform it for them. All the Olympians, plus Hades, went to see it at Camp Half Blood. I like to think that by the end the gods are all crying (except Artemis. She's just looking around at everyone and think, _This is why I don't have kids_ )because they realize how bad they are at being parents. The next day, during breakfast, everyone kinda just sits there watching, because the gods were _walking_ back down to camp, and they all hung out with their kids. Percy and Poseidon went fishing bu the ocean, Apollo and his kids sing and practice archery together, Aphrodite and her kids go to the mall to shop, Zeus and Jason went for a flight to the skies, the Demeter kids and Demeter kinda just talk, Hephesteus and his kids talk while working, Athena and her kids gush about books and history, Ares and his kids practice fighting, and Hermes and his kids just play pranks on everyone else. Then Athena shouts at Hermes, "You don't need to give them more bad influences!" And then it became a tradition every weekend. The end

Some of my own verses for me, an Apollo kid and Clarisse: Apollo: My dad's Apollo, he likes to sing songs. He boasts about himself all day long. He drives the sun, but I can't come along! Oh no! He heals, does prophecies and archery, All things that he would never teach me! Ares (really Clarisse): My dad is Ares, the god of war. I am his kid and I'm tough to the core. If you tried to fight him, you'd be there no more! Oh no! Because of him people don't think that I'm smart, But I've got brains and lots of heart!

[@hazyhope._.]

*_BOOK QUOTE!_* 'So this is the Door of Orpheus.' I tried to be impressed, but it still looked like a pile of rocks to me. 'How does it open?' 'We need music,' Nico said. 'How's your singing?' 'Um, no. Can't you just, like, tell it to open? You're the son of Hades and all.' 'It's not so easy. We need music.' *I was pretty sure that if I tried to sing, all I would cause was an avalanche.* -The Last Olympian, Chapter 7. 3:29

ik this song is light-hearted and fun and funny- but it really makes you remember why demigods like Luke chose kronos over the gods in the first place, it honestly just baffles me thinking back to pjo and the relationships between the gods and their children- and how huge of an effect percy had on it by the end of the series.
