Monster is actually the last song of act1 (first half of the play) so, if you liked it, i would recomend to check the rest of the songs in order, they're as good as this one!👍🏼
Will do -- stay tuned!!!
@@HIM_066xMusicReactionsand you have to watch the animatic of epic, it will gives a bigger impact to the lyrics of songs too.
It hits so much harder with context
"..and if i gotta drop another infant from a wall in an instant so we all don't die", honestly gets me every time
💯 same!!!
@@HIM_066xMusicReactions It'll hit harder once you get the context for it, trust.
I am the monster rawr rawr rawr was my favourite part of the song
so It actually isn't a musical YET. it''s a concept album for a musical written by jorge. Hopefully when the entire concept albums are finished it can be staged and actually made into a real musical. Until then I'd recommend listening to Ruthless from the same musical. It's my personal favorite
Darn I was ready to binge watch this weekend lol ty for letting me know and I'll for sure check out ruthless. I love everything about this
Nah please react to them all in order. Jumping between the songs just spoils the narrative and any emotional weight the callbacks carry
I HIGHLY recommend this musical, even to people who typically don’t like them. Each song is so deep, makes you think and is so emotional. This is a work of art
This is the first song I heard too, time to start from the beginning Man.
💯💯💯
Oof, if you enjoyed Monster you are in For a Ride if you listen to the Full Musical. This Song is literally the last one realese and from Act 1. Based on what you say you may actually enjoy it, basically all songs can be listened to in day to day bases. They are really good and Jorge is simply talented.
Also, the song is not about today, he has being working on the Musical for YEARS now and had the Track List since he started doing auditions and stuff. BUT EPIC is based on the Oddysie right After the Troyan War, and War is War doesn't matter the time periods, that's why it can work for today's situation.
The Musical Goes:
1. Troy Saga:
- Horse and the Infant
- Just a Man
- Full Speed Ahead
- Open Arms
- Warrior of the Mind
2. Cyclopse Saga:
- Polyphemus
- Survive
- Remember Them
- My Goodbye
3. Ocean Saga:
- Storm
- Luck Runs Out
- Keep Your Friend Close
- Ruthlesness
4. Circe Saga:
- Pupeteer
- Wouldn't You Like
- Done For
- There are Other Ways
5. Underworld Saga:
- Underworld
- No Longer You
- Monster
Full speed ahead with the reactions!
I enjoyed your commentary on the philosophy of this song!! This is the last song of Act 1 which has a central theme of "When does a man become a monster?" (a question raised in the second song of the act, Just A Man!) Its based on the Odyssey which starts at the end of the Trojan War and is their journey back home to Ithaca

🙏🏾 I appreciate you tyty
@@HIM_066xMusicReactionsyes please react to them in order the songs tell the story and you have to react to them in order for it to make sense
I 100% agree with this list and would strongly encourage you to do these in order!!!
Co-signing this recommendations list! (Your commentary and thoughtfulness is great, you’ll have a flood of Epic fans watching if you react to the whole musical in order, fingers crossed that you do!)
With the things you bring up, I can only believe that you would really love the entirety of the rest of the concept album. If you're scared of a "too-musical" sound, I can reveal that the main character is almost always backed by a guitar, meaning there are a ton of electric guitar riffs. The production quality stays at this level for essentially the entire album.
Do say if you want more info on the album before you listen to more. People are super willing to give the info, but I felt it wouldn't be right to just info-dump you all of it without asking :)
I defo plan to work the other songs into the rotation. Feel free to educate me friend -- it is very much appreciated
While I slept, people have already filled in a lot of info. I recommend listening in order, and Starrynight7723 has given a great list of animatics that serve as visuals alongside the songs. All the songs can of course be listened to without animatics, but the fan community have added SO MUCH with the visuals of those animatics.
EPIC is definitely a one of a kind musical. I’m usually not a fan of pop song musicals because I feel like you lose the story but Jorge writes modern composition with amazing storytelling. You literally can know what is happening and how each character feels in every moment without visuals even! It’s amazing
💯💯💯
PLEASE react to all the songs in order. It goes Troy saga, cyclops saga, ocean saga, Circe saga, and underworld saga. There are five songs in the first saga, four songs in the next three sagas, and three songs in the last saga. All in all it's one hour and eight minutes of pure emotional torture if you listen to them in order
Thanks so much for giving me the order I'll start the beginning
How has everything been turned against us?
How did suffering become so endless?
How am I to reunite with my estranged?
Do I need to change?
🤯
welcome to the Epic club of Winions (you will learn later). I highly recommend reacting in the order like other comments mentioned. Also, there are a TON of amazing animatics made by fans that give you a nice visual to go along with the music. The whole thing is truly... EPIC!
So Epic the musical was made by Jorge Rivera Herrans, pretty much all the lyrics, music, and direction came from him. He also plays the lead in the musical/whose singing this.
They release in chunks called Sagas, there has 5 sagas releases so far and 4 more to go. Essentially all the songs have been teased and shown so much BTS on Jorge’s social media along with how the music is arranged as well as all the technical detail in the music and characterization
I really highly suggest reacting using animatics since there’s so much little detail that Jorge talked about that happens during the songs that can’t really be shown or properly understood in the music format without background knowledge that the animators capture really well
This is the last song of the 1st act. So far that's all that has been released so far, although he has written more.
There are various animatics that help.
It's a fully sung musical so no talking between.
Well worth reacting to. This is going to be bigger then Hamilton.
All my life I have not paid much attention to musicals. But this Epic, I've listened multiple times since I discovered it this past week.
I have to have self-control to not binge the whole playlist.
I love so much that after he 'becomes the monster' Penelope's theme doesn't play when he refferences her anymore 😈
Oo I missed that good catch 💯
The "protecting her nymphs" i believe isn't simply to protect them from murder, but also from assault, because nymphs in greek mythology are typically exceptionally beautiful and prone to attracting male attention, whether they like it or not. It's also heavily implied as such in the songs of the Circe saga when Circe talks about why she does what she does, as well as the deal she proposes to Odysseus.
Ty for breaking it down friend, that for sure gives new meaning to that verse.
Please do react to the songs in order, the story is based on the Odyssey, and despite some of the differences from the source material, the differences make sense in the storyline. As Jay/Jorge (the writer) has explained, where the source material does not ponder the morality of war, this musical does that and revolves around the idea of how ruthless are you willing to be to protect the people that are important to you.
I cried. And i ive loved greek mythology since i was younger. So this hits differently. I love it
We would love if you watched it. It's modern music and it is a phenomenal experience.
The full musical isnt out yet but the first half is. There are animatics though that fan artists have created to give visuals to the songs if you want to watch those. Highly recommend it.
💯🙏🏾🙏🏾
It'd be amazing to see you watch these in order! Epic is genuinely one of the most moving musicals for me with just how it's written and produced, theres so many little details and the lyrics are actually phenomenal!
If you plan on listening to these in order i suggest watching the fan-made animatics since the entire community is very close-knit when it comes to how people portray the main characters (and also theres stuff that happens musically that is hard to perceive by just listening, my first listen to this was confusing since there were a couple things i missed)
Oh you really should listen to the entire soundtrack, even if you don't want to make videos on them; they're just an all around great listen
It is an amazing musical. A lot of comments have already referenced the context of the song, but you are still missing a lot of the references to the other songs in this song that makes "Monster" hit so hard. Every line is a callback to earlier in the musical and it makes this song go so much harder. I cannot recommend reacting to the other songs more, and watching the fan-made animatics also as those would bring so much more context if you are unfamiliar with the original story.
8:15 instant subscription
I listen to the playlist on a daily basis it’s so good
Ditto! Seriously everyday on my way to work!!
I’m so glad someone else is reacting to Epic!! It’s just a concept musical for now but it's still absolutely fantastic and deserves to be appreciated, plus your reaction was great! If you want to continue checking this out, here are the songs of each saga in order together with some of the best animatics I could find, for your convenience (checking the songs out with visuals helps a lot to absorb the emotions imo so I'd really recommend it)😊

Gigi dropped an animatic for Monster today and it's AMAZING!
I just recently went down the Epic Musical rabbit hole myself 🤣💯💯
I always loved musicals and had to acquaint myself with them during my theatre days in school but this one hits all the right spots.
It’s more contemporary in the writing and musical aspects of production than the classic musicals BUT THATS WHAT MAKES IT SO GREAT!! I love it so much and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did :)
Aside from his take on Homer’s Odyssey, Jorge was heavily influenced by video games and anime (aot??!) which makes this even more epic to me 👏🏼
Epic the Musical isn't a show (yet) it is a bunch of concept albums based on the Odyssey. the writer Jorge is releasing the albums as sagas, the underworld saga is the most recent. I highly suggest checking out the rest of them they are so well made and there hasn't been one I don't like so far.
There are 20 songs for Epic out. Act 1 being completed. Act 2 will have another 20 or so and they're all like this in one overarching story. And they're all full fledged songs
I really like your take on this. I love this musical so I've been thinking of the songs more so in the context of the story. The way you broke it down with philosophy and the modern world was really interesting. While the themes stay the same, I really enjoyed the recontextualization.
Happy you enjoyed the breakdown! I'm really looking forward to reacting to the songs in order. Ty for watching and commenting friend 🤜🏾
There isn’t a show out but most of the songs have fan made animatics that are really good
I recommend checking out just a man next it serves as a kind of into to some of the themes introduced throughout the rest of the concept album.
Ty for pointing me in the right direction -- I appreciate you friend 🤜🏾
@@HIM_066xMusicReactions man check the whole musical out everything is important context ngl
btw only one man is the mastermind behind this, and this is only act 1 just ending, there r no plans for any actual show yet
I'm so happy you've enjoyed this musical series and man to start wuth monster?! Epic!
Jorge has some great behind the scenes content on his channel where he shows how he develops and wrote up the music which is super interesting! Side note: if you have a keen ear, keep an ear out for certain instruments that keep coming up when certain characters are in the scene. Also only gods can call up background vocals willy nilly. Background vocals when humans sing means that there are other people or creatures singing with them. Only the gods can break the rules, because they are gods.
If you like visuals some fans have made excellent animatics and i would be so excited to see you react to them! I would recommend from the Troy saga (the start of the musical):
The Horse and The Infant | Epic: the musical Animatic (FLASH WARNING) by gigi
Just a Man | EPIC: The Musical Animatic by gigi
Full Speed Ahead [ EPIC: The Musical | Animatic by WolfyTheWitch
Open Arms - EPIC: The Musical Animatic by mircsy
Warrior of the Mind - EPIC: The Musical Animatic (FLASH WARNING) by mircsy
Joel Miller from TLOU is an embodiment of the idea of ‘ruthlessness is mercy to ourselves’ and ‘becoming the monster’ to protect those you care about. *spoiler*
He kills Marlene because he knows she would just keep sending people to hunt down him and Ellie. Too bad for him and Ellie, he was too preoccupied with getting Ellie out of there to finish wiping out all the fireflies, enabling a certain someone to escape and seek revenge.
Have you listened to unsinkable or tale of the shadow by sail north. They tell a story more pirate rock
maybe unpopular opinion, i like it when ppl react to my favorite things (in this case Epic) out of order. spoilers are spoilers, yes, but also it's fun for me to see how much meaning people can pull and extrapolate out of these songs out of context. some reactors know greek mythology and are able to identify what story it is, others do a purely blind reaction, and it's always a new way to look at a thing i like so much. may i ask, why this song specifically?
I wish you didn't have this conception that all musical songs are bad or are held to a different standard to another genre of music. It's holding you back from experiencing a lot of good music.
I agree I'm slowly shedding those feelings and starting to see it as it's own entity. But in order to make sense of what I am hearing I do a comparisons as they help me and people who have similar feelings recognize how great this is. I hope that made sense.
@@HIM_066xMusicReactions It did that's great to hear! Hopefully hear more reactions from you soon
