I scheduled this yesterday at midnight-ish and i forgot to add that i imagined quick transitions for this song like Encanto's opening number beause it has such a surprisingly upbeat rhythm LOL since the track was originally going to be toward the end of Act 2, I ended it with an older Odysseus returning to Ithaca, revealing that he's recalling his past throughout the song.

ty for all the kind comments <333 i don't have much energy to reply to all of them but i do read every single one hehe (i am also writing this at midnight lel)

And then...he killed everyone who tried to take her from him
It was great

[aliasfakename]

"she's what I saved my virginity for-"
Ody, too much information! *blushes profusely*

[krionillie]

"everyone wanted Helen of Sparta
I wanted someone smarter!"
Man knows his type and I respect it. XD
but damn that was one smooth burn.

“Where is he? Where is he?”
Me: “KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN HES AIMING FOR THE TORCHES!!”

[alexanderkamado]

So this is where Odysseus turned into Alexander Hamilton

[KnyBurgerKing]

The Hamilton energy in the beginning is off the charts

[jackysnowdrop]

I love how Jay still used ”Where is he? Where is he?” in King and “Time is fleeting it’s running out Time to be the man of the the house” in The Challenge it’s makes things feel like they come full circle. But this song was so fun tho I really hope they made a cut/deleted song album!

0:55 Odysseus and Penelope meeting under the olive tree 👌👌👌

[BlueCookies]

0:20 the fact that he has a f*cking family tree of his crush

Is that basically ancient greek social media stalkin- AHEM- ✨research✨😊

[gantzllat]

this man loves his motifs. "Where is he, where is he" on man of the house is the same as the "where is he" in King

[SuperZeve]

"A girl I would give the world to see... oh boy would he"

[catsandclassics]

He's literally a kid with a crush and it's so wholesome

[lexian.]

“she’s what i “saved my virginity for 🥴👌” BYE THAT SENT ME LMAAAOO

[vibechecker]

0:55 Orizzeus Reigning king of Rizzica

[naturenora]

Nah this is so cute. Ody literally just rambling about his crush is adorable

[julessamuels]

Came back after the reference to this in the Wisdom saga

[minisnakali]

"I wanted someone smarter" LMFAO STAPHHH 😂

[pixlv]

I just realized the part where Odysseus says "Where is he? Where is he?" Is the same way the suitors says the same line in King

[livvyginnygrey]

WHERE IS HE
WHERE IS THE MAN WHO’LL HAVE YOU TO WIFE
WHERE IS HE
WHERE IS THE MAN WITH WHO YOU’LL SPEND YOUR LIFE (omg there lyrics stayed the exact same)
CAUSE ITS BEEN
TWENTY YEARS
AND WE STILL HAVE NO KING!!
