Everytime I feel even the slightest bit as if a dreadful dreadful spell takes over me, I put an earbud in and turn on this song. It heals my soul just a little bit, but at the same time it hurts my soul. How many lives have been saved from this? How many lives who hear this need dire help? It hurts me in my heart that I like many other people are having such a dreadful spell but it gives me hope that so many of us turn to this song in such a dire time of need. I wish you all a safe night.
I wonder if the writers know how many beautiful lives they've saved with this song. I personally know multiple who have been saved by it. Also, to the creator of this video, thank you very much for the translations. I've always wondered what they say.
I'm reading Song of Achilles by Madaline Miller and I got to Patroclus's death scene while I was reading it in my English class. I was crying, like literally crying with tears running down my face. I had to use my bangs to hide my face so no one could see. For some reason I thought it 2ould be a good idea to listen to this song despite what I just read, and now I'm wanting to cry again.
@@straydog4072 I know I love the writing! It’s so beautiful and I have so many quotes saved but at the same time it’s so sad and so unfair! I’m really lucky though because my friend bought me the copy because she knew my parents wouldn’t let me read it! She even added a nice note in the front of the book and I love it!
i listened to this song RELIGIOUSLY before reading it and i just finished reading it and (after a good cry and venting to one of my friends about it) came back to the song and GOD there are so many flashbacks to what happened in the book and the song i think im gonna cry again :')
I’ve been on Percy Jackson tiktok and have been hearing parts of this song for a while and thought I should hear the whole song. It’s such a beautiful song and ty for the translations
For me, I see it as whichever voice I hear more is the voice that is fighting for me. I'm going through a hard time, and I hear the voice that is trying to save me more. That's just me, I don't know if it's for anyone else. None the less, this song has me in tears, and it's gotten me through a lot
It started with the discovery of this song, then the discovery of the comment sections on the song. Realizing I missed a lot of Greek Mythology in school and not recognizing who Patroclus is. Found interest in The Song of Achilles, got a few chapters in and realized I was needing a refresher on the Iliad, and found a free documentary. Now reminded of a brief history, I can fully feel the brute emotional force of the book I discovered all through this song. One song discovery has turned into days of deep diving into a new hyperfixation
Also how I interpret the song is it’s Patroclus after death telling Achilles that he shouldn’t un-alive himself because Patroclus is gone. Then maybe the voice being negative while Patroclus is telling Achilles he shouldn’t un-alive himself is the gods Achilles angered? Or maybe it’s Achilles himself being negative. This is just how I hear it idk.
I think personally it is referring to how achilles threw his life away to become a powerful being even though he knew it wasn’t what he wanted. So he wanted to un-alive himself
I'm learning this on the piano and I'm learning all the words. I'm hoping to perform with a friend to sing the other part of the bridge with me at my school talent show next year.
For the talent show this year, me and my friends are doing this song. Thank you so much for the translations on the French parts because I have to say those lines, so thank you sm again!
All the lives, all the loves, all the tears, all the blood, ever spilled in this world, it all leads up to now. You're part of this meaningless, but so vast cycle, whether you like it or not.

Hi! It could mean a couple different things up to interpretation; religious beliefs (Virgin Mary) or something that is the most important of one’s kind.
Don't do it.

44 actually
74 to be precise
42?
Could someone explain these numbers? I'm new.
Everytime I feel even the slightest bit as if a dreadful dreadful spell takes over me, I put an earbud in and turn on this song. It heals my soul just a little bit, but at the same time it hurts my soul. How many lives have been saved from this? How many lives who hear this need dire help? It hurts me in my heart that I like many other people are having such a dreadful spell but it gives me hope that so many of us turn to this song in such a dire time of need. I wish you all a safe night.
Ah thank you. This song has definitely saved mine, I’m so grateful for this songs existence ❤️

i think it's Achilles himself, talking to himself after being driven into depression and insanity due to the loss of Patroclus

This is a repost of The.ancient Philosopher's comment on another video, however I believe many people here may need to hear it as well.
In my opinion, this song is about Achilles with his obsession of being a God, so the writer advises him to come down, give up his ego
Hearing the song, makes me feel like I am in illiyads epic.
Takes the feeling so much further.
Thanks for the video! I love it and I’m glad I got to find a translation for it
Aww thanks!! I’m glad you like it!!❤️
Why is it that after reading Song Of Achilles I feel like this song is from Patroclus’ perspective
Thank you so so much for the translation!! I've been looking everywhere for this but I couldn't find one!
I’m really glad you like it!!!❤️
you did really well on this! thank you for the translation
Thank you so much!!❤️
I always love this song
And there may not be meaning, so find one and seize it, do not waste yourself on this roof.
This hits harder than anything ive heard in my life.
Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, come down
Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
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 humor 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
Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, come down
Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
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 humor us, Achilles, Achilles, come down
Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
Je vois que beaucoup de gens meurent
Parce qu'ils estiment que la vie ne vaut pas la peine d'être vécue
J'en vois d'autres, qui se font paradoxalement tués pour des idées
Pour des illusions, qui leurs donnent une raison de vivre
Ce, qu'on appelle une raison de vivre est en même temps une excellente raison de mourir
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
D'un gérant d'immeuble qui s'était tué on disait un jour
Qu'il avait perdu sa fille depuis cinq ans
Qu'il avait beaucoup changé depuis et que cette histoire l'avait
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
Ce qui déclenche la crise est presque toujours incontrôlable
Les journaux parlent souvent de chagrins intimes ou de maladie incurable
Ces explications sont valables
Mais il faudrait savoir si le jour même un ami
Du désespéré ne lui a pas parlé sur un ton indifférent
Celui-là est le
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
Les souvenirs d'une patrie perdue, l'espoir d'une terre promise
Ce divorce entre l'homme de sa vie
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
Celle du oui et celle du non
Ce serait trop beau
Mais il faut faire la part de ceux qui, sans conclure, interrogent toujours
Ici, j'ironise à peine, il s'agit de la majorité
Je vois également que ceux qui répondent non agissent comme s'ils pensaient oui
De fait
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
For who ever needs to hear it, because it’s an ultimate fact.
Live and I promise you earlier or later something beautifully lovely will just waiting for you to arrive there.
I believe that you can reach there.
Many lovely hopefully greetings L
LYRICS:
Achilles, Achillies, Achilles,
Come down, Won't you get up off,
Get up off the roof?
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 get down,
Won't you get up off, get up off,
The roof?
Achilles, Achillies, Achilles,
Come down, Won't you get up off,
Get up off the roof?
Remember the path of our youth
Where you go, i'm going,
So jump and i'm jumping
Since there's 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, Achillies, Achilles,
Jump now, and you are absent of cause or excuse
So self-indulgent, and
Self-referencial, no audience
Could ever want you
You crave the applause, yet
Hate the atenttion, then miss it,
Your act is a rouse
It's empty Achilles, so
end it up 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 existance, it's
All conjecture and gloom
And there may not be a
meaning so find one and
seize it
Hear those bell rings,
Deep in the soul, chiming
Away for a moment
Feel your breathe course
Frankly below, see life as a
Worthy opponent
Today of all days, see
How the most dangerous
Thing is to love
How you'll heal
And you'll rise above
Crowded by an overture
Bold and Beyond
Ah, it's more courageous
To overcome
More poignant than frame,
Or the taste of another
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 FOR 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
CAN YOU HEAR ME ACHILLES?
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 THE PACE AND
FURY DEFIANT
CLOTHE YOURSELF WITH
BEAUTY UNTOLD, AND SEE LIFE
AS A MEANS TO 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
4:32 4:56 these parts tho
YESSSS Those get me in my feels
This song makes me cry every time ❣️😭🥺
The guy in the thumbnail is Niels Schneider btw (at least I think it is).
Some of us are just stray dogs looking for a familiar place to call home with fellow stray dogs
I just spent the last 10 minutes trying to find this song (used to listen to it) lmao
Thank you!
:)
1:50
I'm trying to sing this line but I just can't get it perfect
I can do it sometimes but I can't other times. It's like my brain chooses when to forget and when to remember
every time the expecations for my studiies or life get raised by my family I think of killing myself, but this song gives me hope that a useless person like me can someday have a future
Keep going, you are more than enough and definitely not useless.
Shaken at the sight of his dead lover
Im full of tage at this abuser and oooh what i want to do will put me in jail, but its just rage and this song is helpings with it. But ooh my rage is making me cry
My brother’s name is Achilles he’s pretty cool
Redemption lies plainly in the truth
What does it mean at 2:29, the mother of mothers?
Hi! It could mean a couple different things up to interpretation; religious beliefs (Virgin Mary) or something that is the most important of one’s kind.
