Can does NOT have two meanings. It only “means something else” when it is used like this: “Can it!” Those two works together like that is SLANG.

[@accthefiend]

Ethan Slayer it kind of does have two meanings, though, since it means “is able to” and also a literal can as in a tin can, so even though “can it” is slang it does have the two meanings in terms of “the oracle is able to put it in a can” (even though that sounds incredibly stupid now that I’ve written that out like that)

I haven't read the original books (I'm so lame, I know) to understand all of the easter jokes and inside jokes. Hell, I just started listening to the album and I don't know if I completely follow the plot yet either. But I just want to say how this song, especially the lyrics "Drive/Just Drive/Stay ahead, stay ahead/Just Drive" is really helping me cope with depression. I keep on repeating this song over and over again. Thank you so much Rob Rokicki and cast of The Lightning Thief. I hope to see this show in person one day.

All I can think of is Grover as Michael Mell, Percy as Jeremy Heere and Annabeth as Christine Canigula because George Salazar

YEAH. PERCY IS PERSASSY. (Possibly even more than Harry)

[@nifty3416]

Okay but like,, I see people calling Jeremy a 'Jerk' when technically wasn't his fault. It was the original 'villain' of the Be More Chill musical, THE SQUIP, Michael may have had his anxiety attack and moment in the bathroom but doesn't Jeremy have that problem too? He's been pushed away more than Michael, at least in the play, maybe the book shows more Michael and more background towards getting bullied but anyways, like I said, he's not the antagonist of the show, the Squip is. (DONT GET ME WRONG I LOVE MICHAEL BUT JEREMY IS EQUALLY AMAZING)

[@rileymclellan8953]

SAAAAME. And I feel bad cause a lot of the Percy Jackson fandom is upset that people keep comparing it to Be More Chill just because of George Salazar, but I can't help it? I mean obviously they're different, but GEORGE SALAZAR.

IM CRYING NICO AND BIANCA

[@Skipsjack]

Percy: if you hadn’t bought all those DAM snacks! Me: w h a t h a v e y o u d o n e

[@kaorimuto5164]

i think its really funny how in the captions it said (cutest most adorable sound george salazar has ever made in his career, if not his life)

[@kieraosullivan8551]

“Stay ahead and don’t get dead and stay alive” (every demigod quest ever) and “this one we just won’t blow up” are so perfect it’s not even funny, except you know it’s pretty funny

[@betsyb]

Here's what Annabeth says in the argument: "Wait a minute, you got snacks with his money? You know you were supposed to buy me a t-shirt, and that was it. Maybe one for you, maybe one for Percy, but c'mon!" (I'm not completely sure, but that's what I could make out)

[@olivercetus6956]

Its accurate if you ask me

[@devanshi3400]

WAIT EVERYONE SHUT UP THATS BIANCA AT 3:51 CATCH ME CRYING

[@rinb4599]

This is such a bop oh my-

[@MrStars-bj9yf]

To be honest, that dam joke was more accurate to the book than both of the movies combined

[@buffydimock7164]

Can we just appreciate the harmony in this song for one second

[@magdahoskins2604]

no! they don't go to the dam until book 3! (idc tho. this is still great.) loving the dam jokes.

[@betsyb]

It's pretty likely that there won't be a titan's curse musical. But since the "dam snack bar" scene is so iconic, they put in a little nod to it

[@allisongorman1199]

I had the same lyric stuck in my head of “drive just drive way ahead and stay alive” for three hours during my PSAT today.

[@alicecoehoorn6298]

whoever did the captions is my hero

[@wisdom7165]

*we can sLEEp oN THE ROAD!*

[@shraderabby]

this song is a blessing

[@alanibunz]

tHE DAM SNACKS

[@Apollo_Dionysus_Hermes]

I love this D a M musical!!! also, did anyone else catch the part where Percy broke the fourth wall?

[@julesb.1840]

Except Bianca and Nico arrived in 1942 and she wouldn't sound like that, she'd probably sound European. But I get the point of adding the Di Angelo's and it's still cute.

[@xxibgemini]

Julia Berglund 1942, isn't the year Hazel died?

[@julesb.1840]

Jonalie Villeta Yep; bad year for Hades.

[@bonesisthebest1]

I believe the books said that they went to the hotel before World War 2 started. Which would be 1939. I don't think they every gave us an actual date of their arrival in the books. Feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.

[@xxibgemini]

Tiffany Courtney Yeah, I don't remember that a specific year was stated for the Di Angelos arrival at Lotus Hotel. I remembered 1942 as the year Hazel died.

[@sabrinamcclain162]

But wouldn't they still be small children when in the casino because time doesn't pass there, thus meaning they must have left it before the lightning thief to be the right age in titan's curse?

[@abislater6872]

Annabeth: *is right about everything* Percy: I'm sure that's irrelevant

[@hazelparker5366]

The god of WAR"I come in PEACE"Percy: seems legit

[@dianeguo8240]

Ares, god of war: I come in peace

[@mariabrown5939]

you are the god of WAR ARES

[@kathleenmorales9351]

This song will always be a literal road trip to listen to.

[@toxiigoop_]

You guys are talking about Bianca and the dam jokes, but I think the most memorable part of this song is: 1:06 Percy: *That was sCaRy*

[@mariamercedesamalfitekavec5886]

if you guys don’t have the captions on, you are really missing out. just trust me on this one

[@firepowder]

First holy shit this is so good ty for doing these ily

[@SD-wv2em]

4:18 The oracle can can it! I’ll save my mom and save the planet! This is such a Percy thing to say lol 😂

[@ainsleypark7441]

"[ARES, spoken like the true douchebag he is-] I have that effect!" at 2:15. I love that!

[@ainsleypark7441]

"[PERCY] I never dreamed that I could do this.. Never felt like I was worth a dam (hehe see what I did there)" at 3:14. Y'all need to watch the subtitles, whoever wrote this deserves an award!

[@lilaalix2459]

Whoever did the captions...I applaud you

[@laineysellers2080]

2:10 NO YOU DON'T THINK OF ANYONE BUT DIABETES.
