Percy Jackson and the Olympians is an award winning book series by author Rick Riordan. The books focus on a young boy named Percy Jackson, who at the age of twelve finds out that there's a reason he has ADHD, dyslexia and his math teacher is literally trying to kill him. Namely, Percy is one of the many demigod children of the still-active Mount Olympus (which is now on floor 600 of the Empire State building). But if that wasn't enough for Percy to handle, he finds out he could possibly be the hero mentioned in the prophecy that decides the fate of the gods when they turn sixteen. Along with his two best friends, Grover and Annabeth, Percy ends up on one crazy adventure after another. Each summer brings a new quest, new friends and new challenges to face. Whether it's the Fates knitting their socks of Death, the Sphinx issuing standardized tests, or reviving the dead using Happy Meals- Percy and his friends stick together and make it through one dangerous mission after another.
This FST is dedicated to the trio of Percy, Grover and Annabeth and their friends- the children of the prophecies that the Oracle issues before each quest. Friends, former enemies, immortals, a satyr, a mortal and a fair share of demigods- it's through these children that the dark powers stirring in the underworld haven't won yet.
With music ranging from pop to alternative rock to classic rock to Wizard Rock and Rick Astley (come on, you know with Grover's horrible taste in music he would love him)- this FST aims to tackle the story of this group of friends and their adventures. As such, there will be SPOILERS for all four of the books that have been released (The Lightning Thief, Sea of Monsters, Titan's Curse, and The Battle of the Labyrinth) so tread carefully. But otherwise, I hope you enjoy this 51 song FST!



Percy Jackson:
Percy Jackson led a pretty normal life, well if you consider being kicked out of every school he went to normal, until the age of twelve when he discovers that he's a demigod son of Poseidon. If that wasn't complicated enough for him, it turns that there's a prophecy that the next child of the Big Three (Zeus, Hades and Poseidon) will make a decision when they are sixteen that will either save or destroy the gods.
1. Kiss- Under the Rose (lyrics)
And though you have been chosen
To begin
And yet you must be worthy of
The prophecy
But seek and you shall find
Your destiny
But one upside is that as a child of Poseidon, Percy gets some pretty awesome water-related powers. He can breathe underwater, won't get wet unless he wants to, and can bend the water to his will to help fight off bullies trying to give him a swirly.
2. Adrian Belew- Superboy (lyrics)
I know you are a bonafide Superboy
looking through me with those x-ray eyes
no problem at the bottom of the ocean
blasting off for the open skies
Every hero has a fatal flaw, and Percy is no different. This has already been used against him by Kronos: first by taking his mother, then by capturing his friend Grover and then Annabeth. As Athena warns him: "Your fatal flaw is personal loyalty, Percy. You do not know when it is time to cut your losses. To save a friend, you would sacrifice the world. In a hero of the prophecy, that is very, very dangerous."
3. A- Pacific Ocean Blue (lyrics)
It's OK to leave your jacket on in the ocean
It's OK to sing the saddest song, Vibrations
Thanks a lot, you can be
What you want, honestly
Magic days, golden nights
And the summer is forever
It's the endless summer
And it's not about your girlfriend
And it's not about your boyfriend
And I'm not about to lose it over you
Grover Underwood:
Grover is Percy's best friend, and has been even before Percy knew about what he really was. Oh, and did I mention he's a satyr? It's his job to protect Percy, but he's not too great at it. This is because his last job went bad and so his self-esteem is rather low. But when Percy receives his first quest, Grover bites the bullet and offers to come along.
"You saved my life, Percy. If...if you're serious about wanting me along, I won't let you down."
4. Nichole Nordeman- Brave (lyrics)
So long, status quo
I think I've just let go
You make me wanna be brave
The way it always was
It's no longer good enough
You make me wanna be brave
Grover's bravery on his first quest with Percy earns him his searchers license so he can go off and seek out the lost god, Pan. On his mission, he's captured by a Cyclops and sends a call out to Percy to get help. Then he joins the Hunters and their quest to save Artemis. All in all, he's not quite the same shy goat boy he used to be.
5. Rascal Flatts- Stand (lyrics)
You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless
Like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright, you'll be alright
Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend, till you break
Cause its all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad you get strong
Wipe your hands shake it off
Then you stand, Then you stand
When Grover finally finds Pan, the god is dying. Pan had chosen Grover to be the satyr that found him and asks him to carry his message to the world.
"You are the strongest and bravest. Your heart is true. You have believed in me more than anyone ever has, which is why you must bring the message, and why you must be the first to release me."
6. Rick Astley- Nature Boy (lyrics)
There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
Annabeth Chase:
Annabeth Chase is a daughter of Athena who has been at camp since she was seven. She's eagerly waited for the hero who she is going to accompany on a quest. This hero turns out to be Percy and she's more than ready to leave camp and prove herself.
7. Angela Michael- I'm Ready (lyrics)
I’ve got the world ahead of me
I don’t wanna miss a thing
‘cuz there’s so much to do
And I’m gonna get through
Now I’m ready, yeah I’m ready
Ready to take it on
I’m ready for you
Are you ready for me
Like Percy, Annabeth also has a fatal flaw. On the good side, her creative and inventive pride helps her out of sticky situations; but she knows if she doesn't control it that it could get out of hand.
"Hubris means deadly pride, Percy. Thinking you can do things better than anyone else...even the gods."
8. Tegan and Sara- Proud (lyrics)
Take a second look
You might find that I am stronger
Take a second look
You might find that you are stronger
Imagination inspiration
It's only fair that I tell you
I plan on leaving here tonight with my pride
It gets me every time
With my pride
I'm proud to be I'm proud to be me
Even when face to face with The Sphinx, Annabeth isn't afraid to speak her mind when she finds the questions too easy. ("I'm a child of a Athena. And this is an insult to my intelligence. I won't answer these questions.") But when it comes to her love life, between Luke's betrayal and Percy being a bit slow on the uptake, things aren't going quite so smoothly.
9. Kelly Clarkson- Miss Independent (lyrics)
Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient
Miss keep your distance, no
Miss on her own
Miss almost grown
Miss never let a man help her off her throne
So, by keeping her heart protected
She'd never ever feel rejected
Little miss apprehensive
Said ooh, she fell in love
Tyson:
Tyson has never fit in. This is mostly because he's a cyclops who has been living on the streets trying to fend for himself. But after meeting his half-brother, Percy, Tyson finds his place in the world.
10. Huckapoo- Where You Belong (lyrics)
You stand apart
Alone you are
Working on your masterpiece
They laugh, they stare
No one would dare
Invite you to hang out with them
Look around, no where to go
They get you down cause you just like to know
Where you belong
Just looking for the place that you fit in
You're too cool, too weird, it's always something
Try hard, but you can't seem to get there
Where you belong
So what, so what if you're different
It's what you is, not what you isn't
Someday, it'll be so clear
Clarisse:
Daughter of Ares, Clarisse seems like nothing more than a standard bully at first. But there's more to Clarisse than meets the eye; a not-so-mean side that surfaces when she lets Percy and Annabeth join her quest for the Golden Fleece and her secret mission for Chiron that leads her to find Chris.
11. Blondie- War Child (lyrics)
Across the border
They pretend victory
I'm playing in the rubble
And dream a destiny
I'm a war child
I'm a war baby
And that's the difference
Between you and me
I'm a war child
Thalia:
Daughter of Zeus, Thalia made her final stand on Half-Blood Hill and was turned into a pine tree by her father. When the Golden Fleece works too well and revives her, Thalia is tempted to become the child of the Big Three Prophecy and must decide before her sixteenth birthday in a few days whose side she's on.
12. Green Day- 16 (lyrics)
Every night I dream the same dream
Of getting older all the time
I ask you now, what does this mean?
Are these problems just in my mind?
Things are easy when you're a child
But now these pressures have dropped on my head
The length I've gone are just long miles
Would they be shorter if I were dead
Zoё Nightshade:
Zoё fell in love with a hero and helped him on his quest only to be betrayed by him in the end and disowned by her family. She then joins the Hunters of Artemis, swearing off men and fighting until her dying breath to help Artemis.
13. Cher- (This is a) Song for the Lonely (lyrics)
Through the darkest night
See the light shine bright
When heroes fall, in love or war
They live forever
This is a song - for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
Bianca di Angelo:
Bianca, along with her brother Nico, have been orphans as long as they can remember. Tired of having to raise her brother and wanting her own life, she joins up with the Hunters of Artemis and bravely takes on the Talos prototype alone.
14. Bon Jovi- It's My Life (lyrics)
Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
Nico di Angelo:
Nico started out as an excitable young boy of 10 who enjoyed playing card games. But when his sister dies after Percy promised to protect her, Nico's true nature as a son of Hades surfaces. He then runs away from camp where he feels he doesn't fit in and never will.
15. Green Day- Minority (lyrics)
I pledge allegiance to the underworld
One nation under dog
There of which I stand alone
A face in the crowd
Unsung, against the mold
Without a doubt
Singled out
The only way I know
Rachel Elizabeth Dare:
An average mortal girl, Rachel has the ability to see through the Mist and therefore can see monsters and pathways that even demigods cannot. Being as she tends to walk to the beat of her own drum, she doesn't mind going off to help Percy and Annabeth on their quest through the Labyrinth.
16. Ani Difranco- 32 Flavors (lyrics)
Squint your eyes and look closer
I'm not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
And I'm beyond your peripheral vision
So you might want to turn your head
Thalia, Grover & Annabeth:
When Grover tried to lead Thalia to Camp Half-Blood, Annabeth was one of the other half-bloods who came along too.
17. The Choirboys- Rendezvous (lyrics)
How can you fly with your feet on the ground
Take all of your dreams, let's get out of this town
I'll meet you tonight and we'll run to the flame
Just hold on, it's all right, it's our time
To Rendezvous… these chains are broken
And when it's over and done you'll see it's alright boy
You say that there's danger tonight
But I say hold on hold on
Making her final stand ontop of the hill by the camp, Thalia sacrificed her life to ensure the others made it to safety. Zeus then turned her into a pine tree which stands atop Half-Blood Hill.
18. U2- One Tree Hill (lyrics)
We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill
As the day begs the night for mercy, love.
A sun so bright it leaves no shadows
Only scars carved into stone on the face of earth.
The moon is up and over One Tree Hill
We see the sun go down in your eyes.
Grover & Percy
When Percy receives his quest to retrieve the missing lightning bolt, Grover offers to come along and help. Percy is extremely grateful.
I felt so relieved I wanted to cry, though I didn't think that would be very heroic. Grover was the only friend I'd ever had for longer than a few months. I wasn't sure what good a satyr could do against the forces of the dead, but I felt better knowing he'd be with me.
19. Dave Matthews Band- Where are You Going? (lyrics)
Where are you going?
With your long face pulling down, don't hide away.
Like an ocean, which you can't see but you can,
Smell and the sound of waves crash down.
I am no Superman,
I have no reasons for you.
I am no hero, no; that's for sure.
But I do know one thing,
Where you are, that's where I belong.
I do know where you go is where I wanna be.
When Grover is captured by the Cyclops Polyphemus, he uses an empathy link to contact Percy to get help.
"I'll come rescue you," I promised.
20. Christy Carlson Romano - Say The Word (lyrics)
If you find your world is cavin' in
You can bet your gonna need a friend
Someone to take those fears away
Say the word
Make a call and I'll be there
Anytime, anywhere
Have you heard
That I'm all about savin' your world
All you have to do is say the word
During the final fight against Atlas, Grover uses the empathy link again to help keep Percy focused. When Percy is forced to bear the weight of the sky, it's Grover's words that keep him fighting.
Fight back! Grover's voice said inside my head. Don't give up.
21. 3 Doors Down- Kryptonite (lyrics)
I really don’t mind what happens now and then
As long as you’ll be my friend at the end
If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I’m alive and well, will you be
There a-holding my hand
I’ll keep you by my side
With my superhuman might
When Grover gets down about his searchers license possibly being revoked, Percy tries his best to cheer him up.
"You haven't failed. You're the champion goat boy, all right? Juniper knows that. So do I."
22. Jason Mraz- Song for a Friend (lyrics)
[You got all the skill you need,
Individuality
You got something
Call it gumption
Call it anything you want
Because when you play the fool now
You're only fooling everyone else
You're learning to love yourself]
[Because life's too short anyway
But at least it's better then average
As long as you got me
And I got you
You know we'll got a lot to go around
I'll be your friend]
We don't know what these two friends will face next, but we know they'll face it together.
23. Sting- My Funny Friend and Me (lyrics)
You see the patterns in the big sky
Those constellations look like you and I
That tiny planet in a bigger guy
I don't know whether I should laugh or cry
Just like the patterns in the big sky
We'll be together till the end is nigh
Don't know the answer or the reason why
We'll stick together till the day we die
If I had to do this all a second time
I won't complain or make a fuss
When the angels sing that that unlikely blend
Are those two funny friends
That's us
Percy & Annabeth:
Percy's other companion for his first quest is Annabeth, giving Percy another person to lean on when things get tough.
Annabeth grabbed hold of my hand. Under normal circumstances, this would've embarrassed me, but I understood how she felt. She wanted reassurance that somebody else was alive on this boat.
24. Vienna Teng- Harbor (lyrics)
You've got a journey to make
There's your horizon to chase
So go far beyond where we stand
No matter the distance
I'm holding your hand
During their second quest they find themselves entering the Sea of Monsters. Annabeth asks Percy to let her listen to the Siren's song, something that drives her to tears because of what they show her.
She started to sob- I mean horrible, heartbroken sobbing. She put her head on my shoulder and I held her.
25. Angels and Airwaves- Sirens (lyrics)
[Then the phone rang like a gunshot
Like a siren on the beach rock
There's a message at the river
A certain package here to the deliver
When the day breaks after nightfall
I will be there, you know I will]
[I can hear you breathe,
I'm feeling the shake
And the sound of my heartbeat
Can't let go...
Do you know
I'm feeling the pain
Of my first love?
I won't let it go...
Can't let go ]
When Annabeth is captured to help lure Artemis into a trap, the Hunters set out on a quest to save Artemis. Percy goes along with their group, trekking across the US. But Aphrodite knows the real reason he's helping them isn't because of Artemis.
"Because really, how boring these Hunters are! A quest for some monster, blah blah blah. Saving Artemis. Let her stay lost, I say. But a quest for true love--"
26. Ally Kerr- The Sore Feet Song (lyrics)
And every single step of the way, of pain,
Every single night and day,
I searched for you.
Through sandstorms and hazy dawns I reached for you.
I'm tired and I'm weak, but I'm strong for you.
I wanna go home, but my love gets me through.
Deep inside Mt. St. Helens, the telekhines are growing in number and Percy knows he's got to do something about it. Not about to drag Annabeth into it, he insists she goes back without him.
"But you'll be killed!"
"I'll be fine. Besides, we've got no choice."
Annabeth glared at me like she was going to punch me. And then she did something that surprised me even more. She kissed me.
27. Blink 182- I'm Lost Without You (lyrics)
I swear that I can go on forever again
Please let me know that my one bad day will end
I will go down as your lover, your friend
Give me your lips and with one kiss we begin
Are you afraid of being alone
Cause I am, I'm lost without you
Are you afraid of leaving tonight
Cause I am, I'm lost without you
And whether he completely realizes it or not, Percy's gotten rather attached to this daughter of Athena.
I was glad to be with her, but it also kind of hurt, and it hurt when I wasn't with her too.
28. The Who- Athena (lyrics)
Athena, all I ever want to do is please her
My life has been so settled and she's the reason
Just one word from her and my troubles are long gone
But I think I'll get along
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
Percy & Tyson:
At first, Percy isn't too thrilled to find out he has a cyclops as a half-brother. Definitely not cool. But as the quest progresses, Percy comes to accept Tyson in his life and is heartbroken when it appears he is killed. Needless to say, when Tyson returns to help save the day- Percy is very glad to have him as a half-brother.
Tyson sniffled. "Brothers help each other."
"You're my brother," I said. "No doubt about it."
29. The Organ- Brother (lyrics)
Lie down in a field if you can
Look at the night sky
Oh, where does it end?
Sometimes it hurts when you
Care about me
But it's going to hurt more when
They take you away from me
We have go to take cover, brother
When Tyson returns during Percy's fourth year at camp, he comes along with Percy and the others on their quest into the Labyrinth.
I didn't know why she was so certain, but I was happy she'd included Tyson. I couldn't imagine leaving him behind. He was huge and strong and great a figuring out mechanical things.
30. Thin Lizzy- Fight or Fall (lyrics)
After all this time
I tell myself that I'm
Not just wasting time
Oh you know I'm not that way inclined
Brothers if you hear
Raise your flags and make it clear
There is more to fear
If we wait for another year
Percy & Nico:
Percy and Nico's relationship gets off on the wrong foot after Percy promises to keep Nico's sister Bianca safe and she dies on the quest. Nico takes it personally.
"Nico," I said. "I tried. But Bianca gave herself up to save the rest of us. I told her not to. But she-"
"You promised!"
He glared at me, his eyes rimmed with red. He closed his small fist around the god statue.
"I shouldn't have trusted you."
31. Horrorpops- You vs. Me (lyrics)
Cornered by my hopes
You invade my dignity
A calculated attack
On my naive personality
An assault on my place doesn't
Make you be like me
Percy begins to worry that Nico's trying to get revenge on him, but Nico is more interested in trying to bring back his dead sister. When all is said and done at the end of the quest, Nico forgives Percy and offers to tell him if he finds out anything while poking around the Underworld. And it seems that their relationship is off on a better foot this time around...
"Is that...blue birthday cake?"
He sounded hungry, maybe a little wistful. I wondered if the poor kid had ever had a birthday party, or if he'd ever even been invited to one.
"Come inside for cake and ice cream," I said. "It sounds like we've got a lot to talk about."
32. Hawthorne Heights - I'm On Your Side (lyrics)
Took the easy way out I shut myself down
The only way to ease the pain is to drink until I drown
I'll say it out loud my voice is the only sound
So listen up, I'll spell it out
I need your help, I need it now
End this now, we've gone too far
Let's take back words that turn to scars
If I could find a way to turn back time
Had to let you know I'm on your side
Percy & Rachel:
A strange mortal girl who can see the monsters at Hoover Dam isn't someone Percy expects to run into at his school orientation. Luckily for him, her ability to see through the Mist comes in handy to help him against some pretty nasty demon cheerleaders and to help lead the quest into the Labyrinth.
"Look, I'm sorry I got you involved in this."
"No, you were right," she said. "I can see the path. I can't explain it, but it's really clear."
33. Michelle Branch - I'll Always Be Right There (lyrics)
When you're all alone,
and you need a light,
someone to guide you through the night,
just remember that I am here,
to hold you close and dry your tears.
And just when you thought you were falling,
but you know I'll always be right there.
When you're all alone,
and you need a friend,
someone to help you to the end,
when you need someone to catch you when you fall,
I'll be there through it all.
Group:
In Percy's first year at camp, he is given the quest of finding and returning Zeus's master lightning bolt.
34. Sarah McLachlan- World on Fire (lyrics)
The world's on fire and
It's more than I can handle
I'll tap into the water
(Try and bring my share)
I try to bring more
More than I can handle
(Bring it to the table)
Bring what I am able
I watch the heavens but I find no calling
Something I can do to change what's coming
Stay close to me while the sky is falling
Don't wanna be left alone, don't wanna be alone
On this quest, he takes along two companions: Grover and Annabeth.
35. Across the Universe- With a Little Help From My Friends (lyrics)
What would you think if I sang out of tune?
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song,
And I’ll try not to sing out of key.
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I get high with a little help from his friends,
Mm, Gonna try with a little help from my friends.
By the end of the quest, Percy realizes just what great friends they are and chooses their safety above all else.
I felt like my heart was being ripped in two. They had both been with me through so much. I remembered Grover dive-bombing Meduse in the statue garden, and Annabeth saving us from Ceberus; we'd survived Hephaestus's Waterland ride, the St. Louis Arch, the Lotus Casino. I had spent thousands of miles worried that I'd be betrayed by a friend, but these friends would never do that. They had done nothing but save me, over and over, and now they wanted to sacrifice their lives for my mom.
36. Newfound Glory- Everything I Do (I Do it For You) (lyrics)
Look into my heart you will find
There's nothing there to hide
Take me as I am take my life
I would give it all I would sacrifice
Don't tell me it's not worth fighting for
I can't help it there's nothing I want more
You know it's true
Everything I do -
I do it for you
Percy's second summer at camp he has strange dreams about Grover being in danger. When Clarisse is given the quest to find the Golden Fleece instead of him, Percy sneaks out of camp with Annabeth and Tyson to save Grover.
37. Me First and the Gimme Gimmes- You've Got a Friend (lyrics)
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer, or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
You've got a friend
Clarisse ends up picking up the trio as they escape the Hydra and lets them on board her ship. They then enter the Sea of Monsters.
38. The Beatles- Sea of Monsters
[instrumental]
Together, the four of them face off against the Cyclops, Polyphemus and rescue Grover.
39. O-Town- Comin' to the Rescue (lyrics)
On a mission we're united as one
Friends forever
(Yeah)
Here we come
In no time we'll be at your side
(In no time)
We're a team on a rollercoaster ride
Each one of us knows just what to do
Never gonna stop
(Gonna stop)
Searching for you
(For you)
Right before the winter solstice, Annabeth is captured to lay a trap for Artemis. The Hunters of Artemis receive the quest to go and help their goddess, along with Grover and the restored Thalia- but Percy isn't chosen. Not about to leave Annabeth alone, he follows the group.
40. Into the Woods- No One is Alone (lyrics)
No one is alone. Truly.
No one is alone.
Sometimes people leave you.
Halfway through the wood.
Others may decieve you.
You decide whats good.
You decide alone.
But no one is alone.
Percy has dreams of Annabeth trapped beneath Atlas's sky burden and knows she's in grave danger. Determined to rescue her above all else, Aphrodite sends him help since he's on the quest for Annabeth's sake rather than Artemis.
41. Plus One- I Will Rescue You (lyrics)
When the world has
Got you trapped
And you can't find that open door
If you're ever in a battle
And you just can't fight no more
I will rescue you
By the end of the quest, the Hunters have lost their two members and both Annabeth and Percy bear reminders of their burden holding up the sky.
She touched the new streak of grey in my hair that matched hers exactly- our painful souvenir from holding Atlas's burden.
42. Avril Lavigne- Touch the Sky (lyrics)
[I used to carry this big old world
On my shoulders and back
I used to lie inside my room
Wondering where I'm at]
[And then one day I was overcome
By loneliness and dispair
And deep inside I thought I heard
"Lean on me, I'm here" ]
The next summer, Annabeth is given a quest to venture into the Labyrinth to help stop Kronos's attack on the camp. Even though it goes against the quest tradition of only three members, Annabeth insists she needs her three friends: Percy, Grover and Tyson.
I need them all," she insisted. "Chiron, it's important."
43. Ministry of Magic- Forever Together (lyrics)
Forever together
We'll give our lives to defend
Together forever
We'll fight till we see the Dark Lord's end
For the first time I don't feel it
Like I'm alone in this
(with no one by my side)
I'll stand my ground, no more running
'cause I am ready now
(not scared of any fight)
The four enter the Labyrinth, escape an evil ranch and have to split up so they can find both Daedalus and Pan.
44. Masterplan- Into the Arena (lyrics)
No one knows the way
It's all a secret
Hunt for knowledge
On your journey home
Gotta fight for freedom, independent power
Living for now, trying somehow
Praying for the day
She's a blazer
I'm a soul chaser
We'll keep on searching for more
Cruising this firestom
Burn till it's over
Leading our ship to the core
Along the way, Annabeth and Percy enlist Rachel to guide them. Then, they pick up Nico who has decided to help them out after they save his life at the ranch. After meeting back up with Tyson and Grover, the ragtag group is there to witness the lost god Pan's final moments and are entrusted with helping Grover spread the message. When the attack on the camp is averted, Percy is quick to note that "It was a group effort."
45. Alphaville- Here By Your Side (lyrics)
In the middle of the night
When the last of God has died
And the only thing you've got
Is the tictoc of the clock
I'm here by your side
In these days full of wonder
So you passed so many years
In a labyrinth of traces
Running round and round they led
To no one but yourself...
Percy Jackson might be the hero, but he's always got his two best friends with him. At the heart of all these adventures, it's always the three of them.
46. Christina Aguilera- I Turn to You (lyrics)
When my world is going crazy,
You can turn it all around.
And when I'm down you're there
- pushing me to the top.
You're always there,
giving me all you've got.
For a shield from the storm,
For a friend, for a love
to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you.
And of course, Percy, Annabeth and Grover definitely get into their share of trouble.
47. Oliver Boyd and the Remembralls- Trio in Trouble (lyrics)
Trio in trouble
And there’s nothing we can do
Trio in trouble
They will find their own way through
Who knows who will stand up in the end
I just hope that it is the three of them
But no matter what happens next, they'll be there for each other until the very end.
48. The Remembrants- I'll Be There for You (lyrics)
No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one who knows
What it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone i'll always laugh with
Even at my worst I'm best with you, yeah
But even the best of friends need allies. Tyson, son of Poseidon. Clarisse, daughter of Ares. Thalia, daughter of Zeus. Nico, son of Hades. And Rachel, a mortal girl with a lot of spunk.
49. BBMak- Still on Your Side (lyrics)
Don't you know that I will stand up for you
No matter what you are going through
I'm still on your side
Any time day or night
Don't care if it's wrong or right
I'm still on your side
You want to run you want to break free
What you want ain't what you need
Can't you see that I care
I know I'm hard on you sometimes
But when you are looking for the things you can't find
Don't you know who'll be there
Who will, I will
When it's more than you can handle
Ain't no lie
They're all friends that the trio knows they can call on if they need a hand.
50. Tokio Hotel- Ready, Set, Go! (lyrics)
Ready, set, go it's time to run
The sky is changing we are one
Together we can make it while the world is crashing down
Don't you turn around
We are looking back again
Our loneliness and pain
Never been so wide awake
Breathe slowly in and out
somewhere beyond the clouds
I can see the morning break
Too young to live a lie
Look into my eyes
And no matter what the outcome of the final battle is, we know that this trio and their friends will achieve it together.
51. Lazy Town- Team Work (lyrics)
Stars in the sky
Hot weather in July
They're always better together
A hat on a head
Butter and bread
They're always better together
If things don't work on your own
You know you're not alone
Team work do it together
Team work friends forever
We're all for one and one for all
We'll help each other stand tall
With teamwork

This FST is dedicated to the trio of Percy, Grover and Annabeth and their friends- the children of the prophecies that the Oracle issues before each quest. Friends, former enemies, immortals, a satyr, a mortal and a fair share of demigods- it's through these children that the dark powers stirring in the underworld haven't won yet.
With music ranging from pop to alternative rock to classic rock to Wizard Rock and Rick Astley (come on, you know with Grover's horrible taste in music he would love him)- this FST aims to tackle the story of this group of friends and their adventures. As such, there will be SPOILERS for all four of the books that have been released (The Lightning Thief, Sea of Monsters, Titan's Curse, and The Battle of the Labyrinth) so tread carefully. But otherwise, I hope you enjoy this 51 song FST!



Percy Jackson:
Percy Jackson led a pretty normal life, well if you consider being kicked out of every school he went to normal, until the age of twelve when he discovers that he's a demigod son of Poseidon. If that wasn't complicated enough for him, it turns that there's a prophecy that the next child of the Big Three (Zeus, Hades and Poseidon) will make a decision when they are sixteen that will either save or destroy the gods.
1. Kiss- Under the Rose (lyrics)
And though you have been chosen
To begin
And yet you must be worthy of
The prophecy
But seek and you shall find
Your destiny
But one upside is that as a child of Poseidon, Percy gets some pretty awesome water-related powers. He can breathe underwater, won't get wet unless he wants to, and can bend the water to his will to help fight off bullies trying to give him a swirly.
2. Adrian Belew- Superboy (lyrics)
I know you are a bonafide Superboy
looking through me with those x-ray eyes
no problem at the bottom of the ocean
blasting off for the open skies
Every hero has a fatal flaw, and Percy is no different. This has already been used against him by Kronos: first by taking his mother, then by capturing his friend Grover and then Annabeth. As Athena warns him: "Your fatal flaw is personal loyalty, Percy. You do not know when it is time to cut your losses. To save a friend, you would sacrifice the world. In a hero of the prophecy, that is very, very dangerous."
3. A- Pacific Ocean Blue (lyrics)
It's OK to leave your jacket on in the ocean
It's OK to sing the saddest song, Vibrations
Thanks a lot, you can be
What you want, honestly
Magic days, golden nights
And the summer is forever
It's the endless summer
And it's not about your girlfriend
And it's not about your boyfriend
And I'm not about to lose it over you
Grover Underwood:
Grover is Percy's best friend, and has been even before Percy knew about what he really was. Oh, and did I mention he's a satyr? It's his job to protect Percy, but he's not too great at it. This is because his last job went bad and so his self-esteem is rather low. But when Percy receives his first quest, Grover bites the bullet and offers to come along.
"You saved my life, Percy. If...if you're serious about wanting me along, I won't let you down."
4. Nichole Nordeman- Brave (lyrics)
So long, status quo
I think I've just let go
You make me wanna be brave
The way it always was
It's no longer good enough
You make me wanna be brave
Grover's bravery on his first quest with Percy earns him his searchers license so he can go off and seek out the lost god, Pan. On his mission, he's captured by a Cyclops and sends a call out to Percy to get help. Then he joins the Hunters and their quest to save Artemis. All in all, he's not quite the same shy goat boy he used to be.
5. Rascal Flatts- Stand (lyrics)
You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless
Like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright, you'll be alright
Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend, till you break
Cause its all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad you get strong
Wipe your hands shake it off
Then you stand, Then you stand
When Grover finally finds Pan, the god is dying. Pan had chosen Grover to be the satyr that found him and asks him to carry his message to the world.
"You are the strongest and bravest. Your heart is true. You have believed in me more than anyone ever has, which is why you must bring the message, and why you must be the first to release me."
6. Rick Astley- Nature Boy (lyrics)
There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
Annabeth Chase:
Annabeth Chase is a daughter of Athena who has been at camp since she was seven. She's eagerly waited for the hero who she is going to accompany on a quest. This hero turns out to be Percy and she's more than ready to leave camp and prove herself.
7. Angela Michael- I'm Ready (lyrics)
I’ve got the world ahead of me
I don’t wanna miss a thing
‘cuz there’s so much to do
And I’m gonna get through
Now I’m ready, yeah I’m ready
Ready to take it on
I’m ready for you
Are you ready for me
Like Percy, Annabeth also has a fatal flaw. On the good side, her creative and inventive pride helps her out of sticky situations; but she knows if she doesn't control it that it could get out of hand.
"Hubris means deadly pride, Percy. Thinking you can do things better than anyone else...even the gods."
8. Tegan and Sara- Proud (lyrics)
Take a second look
You might find that I am stronger
Take a second look
You might find that you are stronger
Imagination inspiration
It's only fair that I tell you
I plan on leaving here tonight with my pride
It gets me every time
With my pride
I'm proud to be I'm proud to be me
Even when face to face with The Sphinx, Annabeth isn't afraid to speak her mind when she finds the questions too easy. ("I'm a child of a Athena. And this is an insult to my intelligence. I won't answer these questions.") But when it comes to her love life, between Luke's betrayal and Percy being a bit slow on the uptake, things aren't going quite so smoothly.
9. Kelly Clarkson- Miss Independent (lyrics)
Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient
Miss keep your distance, no
Miss on her own
Miss almost grown
Miss never let a man help her off her throne
So, by keeping her heart protected
She'd never ever feel rejected
Little miss apprehensive
Said ooh, she fell in love
Tyson:
Tyson has never fit in. This is mostly because he's a cyclops who has been living on the streets trying to fend for himself. But after meeting his half-brother, Percy, Tyson finds his place in the world.
10. Huckapoo- Where You Belong (lyrics)
You stand apart
Alone you are
Working on your masterpiece
They laugh, they stare
No one would dare
Invite you to hang out with them
Look around, no where to go
They get you down cause you just like to know
Where you belong
Just looking for the place that you fit in
You're too cool, too weird, it's always something
Try hard, but you can't seem to get there
Where you belong
So what, so what if you're different
It's what you is, not what you isn't
Someday, it'll be so clear
Clarisse:
Daughter of Ares, Clarisse seems like nothing more than a standard bully at first. But there's more to Clarisse than meets the eye; a not-so-mean side that surfaces when she lets Percy and Annabeth join her quest for the Golden Fleece and her secret mission for Chiron that leads her to find Chris.
11. Blondie- War Child (lyrics)
Across the border
They pretend victory
I'm playing in the rubble
And dream a destiny
I'm a war child
I'm a war baby
And that's the difference
Between you and me
I'm a war child
Thalia:
Daughter of Zeus, Thalia made her final stand on Half-Blood Hill and was turned into a pine tree by her father. When the Golden Fleece works too well and revives her, Thalia is tempted to become the child of the Big Three Prophecy and must decide before her sixteenth birthday in a few days whose side she's on.
12. Green Day- 16 (lyrics)
Every night I dream the same dream
Of getting older all the time
I ask you now, what does this mean?
Are these problems just in my mind?
Things are easy when you're a child
But now these pressures have dropped on my head
The length I've gone are just long miles
Would they be shorter if I were dead
Zoё Nightshade:
Zoё fell in love with a hero and helped him on his quest only to be betrayed by him in the end and disowned by her family. She then joins the Hunters of Artemis, swearing off men and fighting until her dying breath to help Artemis.
13. Cher- (This is a) Song for the Lonely (lyrics)
Through the darkest night
See the light shine bright
When heroes fall, in love or war
They live forever
This is a song - for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
Bianca di Angelo:
Bianca, along with her brother Nico, have been orphans as long as they can remember. Tired of having to raise her brother and wanting her own life, she joins up with the Hunters of Artemis and bravely takes on the Talos prototype alone.
14. Bon Jovi- It's My Life (lyrics)
Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
Nico di Angelo:
Nico started out as an excitable young boy of 10 who enjoyed playing card games. But when his sister dies after Percy promised to protect her, Nico's true nature as a son of Hades surfaces. He then runs away from camp where he feels he doesn't fit in and never will.
15. Green Day- Minority (lyrics)
I pledge allegiance to the underworld
One nation under dog
There of which I stand alone
A face in the crowd
Unsung, against the mold
Without a doubt
Singled out
The only way I know
Rachel Elizabeth Dare:
An average mortal girl, Rachel has the ability to see through the Mist and therefore can see monsters and pathways that even demigods cannot. Being as she tends to walk to the beat of her own drum, she doesn't mind going off to help Percy and Annabeth on their quest through the Labyrinth.
16. Ani Difranco- 32 Flavors (lyrics)
Squint your eyes and look closer
I'm not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
And I'm beyond your peripheral vision
So you might want to turn your head
Thalia, Grover & Annabeth:
When Grover tried to lead Thalia to Camp Half-Blood, Annabeth was one of the other half-bloods who came along too.
17. The Choirboys- Rendezvous (lyrics)
How can you fly with your feet on the ground
Take all of your dreams, let's get out of this town
I'll meet you tonight and we'll run to the flame
Just hold on, it's all right, it's our time
To Rendezvous… these chains are broken
And when it's over and done you'll see it's alright boy
You say that there's danger tonight
But I say hold on hold on
Making her final stand ontop of the hill by the camp, Thalia sacrificed her life to ensure the others made it to safety. Zeus then turned her into a pine tree which stands atop Half-Blood Hill.
18. U2- One Tree Hill (lyrics)
We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill
As the day begs the night for mercy, love.
A sun so bright it leaves no shadows
Only scars carved into stone on the face of earth.
The moon is up and over One Tree Hill
We see the sun go down in your eyes.
Grover & Percy
When Percy receives his quest to retrieve the missing lightning bolt, Grover offers to come along and help. Percy is extremely grateful.
I felt so relieved I wanted to cry, though I didn't think that would be very heroic. Grover was the only friend I'd ever had for longer than a few months. I wasn't sure what good a satyr could do against the forces of the dead, but I felt better knowing he'd be with me.
19. Dave Matthews Band- Where are You Going? (lyrics)
Where are you going?
With your long face pulling down, don't hide away.
Like an ocean, which you can't see but you can,
Smell and the sound of waves crash down.
I am no Superman,
I have no reasons for you.
I am no hero, no; that's for sure.
But I do know one thing,
Where you are, that's where I belong.
I do know where you go is where I wanna be.
When Grover is captured by the Cyclops Polyphemus, he uses an empathy link to contact Percy to get help.
"I'll come rescue you," I promised.
20. Christy Carlson Romano - Say The Word (lyrics)
If you find your world is cavin' in
You can bet your gonna need a friend
Someone to take those fears away
Say the word
Make a call and I'll be there
Anytime, anywhere
Have you heard
That I'm all about savin' your world
All you have to do is say the word
During the final fight against Atlas, Grover uses the empathy link again to help keep Percy focused. When Percy is forced to bear the weight of the sky, it's Grover's words that keep him fighting.
Fight back! Grover's voice said inside my head. Don't give up.
21. 3 Doors Down- Kryptonite (lyrics)
I really don’t mind what happens now and then
As long as you’ll be my friend at the end
If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I’m alive and well, will you be
There a-holding my hand
I’ll keep you by my side
With my superhuman might
When Grover gets down about his searchers license possibly being revoked, Percy tries his best to cheer him up.
"You haven't failed. You're the champion goat boy, all right? Juniper knows that. So do I."
22. Jason Mraz- Song for a Friend (lyrics)
[You got all the skill you need,
Individuality
You got something
Call it gumption
Call it anything you want
Because when you play the fool now
You're only fooling everyone else
You're learning to love yourself]
[Because life's too short anyway
But at least it's better then average
As long as you got me
And I got you
You know we'll got a lot to go around
I'll be your friend]
We don't know what these two friends will face next, but we know they'll face it together.
23. Sting- My Funny Friend and Me (lyrics)
You see the patterns in the big sky
Those constellations look like you and I
That tiny planet in a bigger guy
I don't know whether I should laugh or cry
Just like the patterns in the big sky
We'll be together till the end is nigh
Don't know the answer or the reason why
We'll stick together till the day we die
If I had to do this all a second time
I won't complain or make a fuss
When the angels sing that that unlikely blend
Are those two funny friends
That's us
Percy & Annabeth:
Percy's other companion for his first quest is Annabeth, giving Percy another person to lean on when things get tough.
Annabeth grabbed hold of my hand. Under normal circumstances, this would've embarrassed me, but I understood how she felt. She wanted reassurance that somebody else was alive on this boat.
24. Vienna Teng- Harbor (lyrics)
You've got a journey to make
There's your horizon to chase
So go far beyond where we stand
No matter the distance
I'm holding your hand
During their second quest they find themselves entering the Sea of Monsters. Annabeth asks Percy to let her listen to the Siren's song, something that drives her to tears because of what they show her.
She started to sob- I mean horrible, heartbroken sobbing. She put her head on my shoulder and I held her.
25. Angels and Airwaves- Sirens (lyrics)
[Then the phone rang like a gunshot
Like a siren on the beach rock
There's a message at the river
A certain package here to the deliver
When the day breaks after nightfall
I will be there, you know I will]
[I can hear you breathe,
I'm feeling the shake
And the sound of my heartbeat
Can't let go...
Do you know
I'm feeling the pain
Of my first love?
I won't let it go...
Can't let go ]
When Annabeth is captured to help lure Artemis into a trap, the Hunters set out on a quest to save Artemis. Percy goes along with their group, trekking across the US. But Aphrodite knows the real reason he's helping them isn't because of Artemis.
"Because really, how boring these Hunters are! A quest for some monster, blah blah blah. Saving Artemis. Let her stay lost, I say. But a quest for true love--"
26. Ally Kerr- The Sore Feet Song (lyrics)
And every single step of the way, of pain,
Every single night and day,
I searched for you.
Through sandstorms and hazy dawns I reached for you.
I'm tired and I'm weak, but I'm strong for you.
I wanna go home, but my love gets me through.
Deep inside Mt. St. Helens, the telekhines are growing in number and Percy knows he's got to do something about it. Not about to drag Annabeth into it, he insists she goes back without him.
"But you'll be killed!"
"I'll be fine. Besides, we've got no choice."
Annabeth glared at me like she was going to punch me. And then she did something that surprised me even more. She kissed me.
27. Blink 182- I'm Lost Without You (lyrics)
I swear that I can go on forever again
Please let me know that my one bad day will end
I will go down as your lover, your friend
Give me your lips and with one kiss we begin
Are you afraid of being alone
Cause I am, I'm lost without you
Are you afraid of leaving tonight
Cause I am, I'm lost without you
And whether he completely realizes it or not, Percy's gotten rather attached to this daughter of Athena.
I was glad to be with her, but it also kind of hurt, and it hurt when I wasn't with her too.
28. The Who- Athena (lyrics)
Athena, all I ever want to do is please her
My life has been so settled and she's the reason
Just one word from her and my troubles are long gone
But I think I'll get along
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
Percy & Tyson:
At first, Percy isn't too thrilled to find out he has a cyclops as a half-brother. Definitely not cool. But as the quest progresses, Percy comes to accept Tyson in his life and is heartbroken when it appears he is killed. Needless to say, when Tyson returns to help save the day- Percy is very glad to have him as a half-brother.
Tyson sniffled. "Brothers help each other."
"You're my brother," I said. "No doubt about it."
29. The Organ- Brother (lyrics)
Lie down in a field if you can
Look at the night sky
Oh, where does it end?
Sometimes it hurts when you
Care about me
But it's going to hurt more when
They take you away from me
We have go to take cover, brother
When Tyson returns during Percy's fourth year at camp, he comes along with Percy and the others on their quest into the Labyrinth.
I didn't know why she was so certain, but I was happy she'd included Tyson. I couldn't imagine leaving him behind. He was huge and strong and great a figuring out mechanical things.
30. Thin Lizzy- Fight or Fall (lyrics)
After all this time
I tell myself that I'm
Not just wasting time
Oh you know I'm not that way inclined
Brothers if you hear
Raise your flags and make it clear
There is more to fear
If we wait for another year
Percy & Nico:
Percy and Nico's relationship gets off on the wrong foot after Percy promises to keep Nico's sister Bianca safe and she dies on the quest. Nico takes it personally.
"Nico," I said. "I tried. But Bianca gave herself up to save the rest of us. I told her not to. But she-"
"You promised!"
He glared at me, his eyes rimmed with red. He closed his small fist around the god statue.
"I shouldn't have trusted you."
31. Horrorpops- You vs. Me (lyrics)
Cornered by my hopes
You invade my dignity
A calculated attack
On my naive personality
An assault on my place doesn't
Make you be like me
Percy begins to worry that Nico's trying to get revenge on him, but Nico is more interested in trying to bring back his dead sister. When all is said and done at the end of the quest, Nico forgives Percy and offers to tell him if he finds out anything while poking around the Underworld. And it seems that their relationship is off on a better foot this time around...
"Is that...blue birthday cake?"
He sounded hungry, maybe a little wistful. I wondered if the poor kid had ever had a birthday party, or if he'd ever even been invited to one.
"Come inside for cake and ice cream," I said. "It sounds like we've got a lot to talk about."
32. Hawthorne Heights - I'm On Your Side (lyrics)
Took the easy way out I shut myself down
The only way to ease the pain is to drink until I drown
I'll say it out loud my voice is the only sound
So listen up, I'll spell it out
I need your help, I need it now
End this now, we've gone too far
Let's take back words that turn to scars
If I could find a way to turn back time
Had to let you know I'm on your side
Percy & Rachel:
A strange mortal girl who can see the monsters at Hoover Dam isn't someone Percy expects to run into at his school orientation. Luckily for him, her ability to see through the Mist comes in handy to help him against some pretty nasty demon cheerleaders and to help lead the quest into the Labyrinth.
"Look, I'm sorry I got you involved in this."
"No, you were right," she said. "I can see the path. I can't explain it, but it's really clear."
33. Michelle Branch - I'll Always Be Right There (lyrics)
When you're all alone,
and you need a light,
someone to guide you through the night,
just remember that I am here,
to hold you close and dry your tears.
And just when you thought you were falling,
but you know I'll always be right there.
When you're all alone,
and you need a friend,
someone to help you to the end,
when you need someone to catch you when you fall,
I'll be there through it all.
Group:
In Percy's first year at camp, he is given the quest of finding and returning Zeus's master lightning bolt.
34. Sarah McLachlan- World on Fire (lyrics)
The world's on fire and
It's more than I can handle
I'll tap into the water
(Try and bring my share)
I try to bring more
More than I can handle
(Bring it to the table)
Bring what I am able
I watch the heavens but I find no calling
Something I can do to change what's coming
Stay close to me while the sky is falling
Don't wanna be left alone, don't wanna be alone
On this quest, he takes along two companions: Grover and Annabeth.
35. Across the Universe- With a Little Help From My Friends (lyrics)
What would you think if I sang out of tune?
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song,
And I’ll try not to sing out of key.
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I get high with a little help from his friends,
Mm, Gonna try with a little help from my friends.
By the end of the quest, Percy realizes just what great friends they are and chooses their safety above all else.
I felt like my heart was being ripped in two. They had both been with me through so much. I remembered Grover dive-bombing Meduse in the statue garden, and Annabeth saving us from Ceberus; we'd survived Hephaestus's Waterland ride, the St. Louis Arch, the Lotus Casino. I had spent thousands of miles worried that I'd be betrayed by a friend, but these friends would never do that. They had done nothing but save me, over and over, and now they wanted to sacrifice their lives for my mom.
36. Newfound Glory- Everything I Do (I Do it For You) (lyrics)
Look into my heart you will find
There's nothing there to hide
Take me as I am take my life
I would give it all I would sacrifice
Don't tell me it's not worth fighting for
I can't help it there's nothing I want more
You know it's true
Everything I do -
I do it for you
Percy's second summer at camp he has strange dreams about Grover being in danger. When Clarisse is given the quest to find the Golden Fleece instead of him, Percy sneaks out of camp with Annabeth and Tyson to save Grover.
37. Me First and the Gimme Gimmes- You've Got a Friend (lyrics)
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer, or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
You've got a friend
Clarisse ends up picking up the trio as they escape the Hydra and lets them on board her ship. They then enter the Sea of Monsters.
38. The Beatles- Sea of Monsters
[instrumental]
Together, the four of them face off against the Cyclops, Polyphemus and rescue Grover.
39. O-Town- Comin' to the Rescue (lyrics)
On a mission we're united as one
Friends forever
(Yeah)
Here we come
In no time we'll be at your side
(In no time)
We're a team on a rollercoaster ride
Each one of us knows just what to do
Never gonna stop
(Gonna stop)
Searching for you
(For you)
Right before the winter solstice, Annabeth is captured to lay a trap for Artemis. The Hunters of Artemis receive the quest to go and help their goddess, along with Grover and the restored Thalia- but Percy isn't chosen. Not about to leave Annabeth alone, he follows the group.
40. Into the Woods- No One is Alone (lyrics)
No one is alone. Truly.
No one is alone.
Sometimes people leave you.
Halfway through the wood.
Others may decieve you.
You decide whats good.
You decide alone.
But no one is alone.
Percy has dreams of Annabeth trapped beneath Atlas's sky burden and knows she's in grave danger. Determined to rescue her above all else, Aphrodite sends him help since he's on the quest for Annabeth's sake rather than Artemis.
41. Plus One- I Will Rescue You (lyrics)
When the world has
Got you trapped
And you can't find that open door
If you're ever in a battle
And you just can't fight no more
I will rescue you
By the end of the quest, the Hunters have lost their two members and both Annabeth and Percy bear reminders of their burden holding up the sky.
She touched the new streak of grey in my hair that matched hers exactly- our painful souvenir from holding Atlas's burden.
42. Avril Lavigne- Touch the Sky (lyrics)
[I used to carry this big old world
On my shoulders and back
I used to lie inside my room
Wondering where I'm at]
[And then one day I was overcome
By loneliness and dispair
And deep inside I thought I heard
"Lean on me, I'm here" ]
The next summer, Annabeth is given a quest to venture into the Labyrinth to help stop Kronos's attack on the camp. Even though it goes against the quest tradition of only three members, Annabeth insists she needs her three friends: Percy, Grover and Tyson.
I need them all," she insisted. "Chiron, it's important."
43. Ministry of Magic- Forever Together (lyrics)
Forever together
We'll give our lives to defend
Together forever
We'll fight till we see the Dark Lord's end
For the first time I don't feel it
Like I'm alone in this
(with no one by my side)
I'll stand my ground, no more running
'cause I am ready now
(not scared of any fight)
The four enter the Labyrinth, escape an evil ranch and have to split up so they can find both Daedalus and Pan.
44. Masterplan- Into the Arena (lyrics)
No one knows the way
It's all a secret
Hunt for knowledge
On your journey home
Gotta fight for freedom, independent power
Living for now, trying somehow
Praying for the day
She's a blazer
I'm a soul chaser
We'll keep on searching for more
Cruising this firestom
Burn till it's over
Leading our ship to the core
Along the way, Annabeth and Percy enlist Rachel to guide them. Then, they pick up Nico who has decided to help them out after they save his life at the ranch. After meeting back up with Tyson and Grover, the ragtag group is there to witness the lost god Pan's final moments and are entrusted with helping Grover spread the message. When the attack on the camp is averted, Percy is quick to note that "It was a group effort."
45. Alphaville- Here By Your Side (lyrics)
In the middle of the night
When the last of God has died
And the only thing you've got
Is the tictoc of the clock
I'm here by your side
In these days full of wonder
So you passed so many years
In a labyrinth of traces
Running round and round they led
To no one but yourself...
Percy Jackson might be the hero, but he's always got his two best friends with him. At the heart of all these adventures, it's always the three of them.
46. Christina Aguilera- I Turn to You (lyrics)
When my world is going crazy,
You can turn it all around.
And when I'm down you're there
- pushing me to the top.
You're always there,
giving me all you've got.
For a shield from the storm,
For a friend, for a love
to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you.
And of course, Percy, Annabeth and Grover definitely get into their share of trouble.
47. Oliver Boyd and the Remembralls- Trio in Trouble (lyrics)
Trio in trouble
And there’s nothing we can do
Trio in trouble
They will find their own way through
Who knows who will stand up in the end
I just hope that it is the three of them
But no matter what happens next, they'll be there for each other until the very end.
48. The Remembrants- I'll Be There for You (lyrics)
No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one who knows
What it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone i'll always laugh with
Even at my worst I'm best with you, yeah
But even the best of friends need allies. Tyson, son of Poseidon. Clarisse, daughter of Ares. Thalia, daughter of Zeus. Nico, son of Hades. And Rachel, a mortal girl with a lot of spunk.
49. BBMak- Still on Your Side (lyrics)
Don't you know that I will stand up for you
No matter what you are going through
I'm still on your side
Any time day or night
Don't care if it's wrong or right
I'm still on your side
You want to run you want to break free
What you want ain't what you need
Can't you see that I care
I know I'm hard on you sometimes
But when you are looking for the things you can't find
Don't you know who'll be there
Who will, I will
When it's more than you can handle
Ain't no lie
They're all friends that the trio knows they can call on if they need a hand.
50. Tokio Hotel- Ready, Set, Go! (lyrics)
Ready, set, go it's time to run
The sky is changing we are one
Together we can make it while the world is crashing down
Don't you turn around
We are looking back again
Our loneliness and pain
Never been so wide awake
Breathe slowly in and out
somewhere beyond the clouds
I can see the morning break
Too young to live a lie
Look into my eyes
And no matter what the outcome of the final battle is, we know that this trio and their friends will achieve it together.
51. Lazy Town- Team Work (lyrics)
Stars in the sky
Hot weather in July
They're always better together
A hat on a head
Butter and bread
They're always better together
If things don't work on your own
You know you're not alone
Team work do it together
Team work friends forever
We're all for one and one for all
We'll help each other stand tall
With teamwork
