Which is your favorite movie from the LoTR trilogy and why? For me it has to be the Fellowship of the Ring solely for the excitement I felt seeing the beginning of that epic journey on the big screen for the first time...

[@onyxzheng347]

I wish I could have seen them on the big screen, but I was born too late for that

[@DavidAndersen84]

"Return of the King" is my favorite. It is on the scale of an old Hollywood epic.

[@DavidAndersen84]

@@onyxzheng347 They may rerelease them some day.

[@OrfeasNezis]

"return of the king" there where moments in the film where i was shivering. Like the moment Aragorn cried "for Frodo".

Played it at my brothers wedding when they gave each other their rings and spke their vows. So to say as "backgound" music. Was wonderfull and created a lovley mood. Thanks a lot for uploading and arragring it! Love from Germany

May it be an evening star, Shines down upon you, May it be when darkness falls, Your heart will be true, You walk a lonely road, O How far you are from home.

[@odu_history_1972]

You did a cover of this four years ago with Malinda Kathleen Reese. I love that rendition and go back to it quite often. I wasn't following you at the time, but the video popped up in my recommendations in February of 2018, right after my best friend of nearly 40 years committed suicide. We often compared our friendship to Sam and Frodo. I hadn't emotionally connected with his loss yet, because he lived in a different state, his family didn't tell me about his death until the day of the funeral, and it just didn't seem like he was really gone. Listening to that cover from four years ago was the cathartic event I needed to help me begin to mourn him and work through my grief. I've followed you ever since. Thank you.

[@AndorSolymos]

Simply wonderful, and I am crying…

[@gouldbergvariations]

all of the lord of the rings soundtracks make me cry... they create nostalgia inside me. A nostalgia for a better life that I know can exist in the world. Where the good outweighs the bad by a million. Where tears are hidden by the endless smiles of people feeling so blessed with their life. An Earth where nature thrives and humans help its beauty ad magic grow without borders. A world where humans and nature work as one, in unity and harmony. Mountains and valleys flourishing with green, flowers of all colors, and trees shedding their leaves only to be reborn with anew. Oceans and seas of endless blue, hiding treasures and an abundance of all sorts of life under their thick layers of salty water. A world too beautiful to even imagine there can be a second. Amen.

[@zacharysindoni1162]

I simply don't have the words when I listen to your music. I just put my earphones on, close my eyes and just get lost in every note. My family have endured so much pain in 2021, I just had to buy myself a classical and try and learn your arrangements. Probably one of the happiest moments of my life is trying to play for my wife, her mom and my son. You've inspired me so much. Thanks dude!!

[@garethedwards4739]

There’s instrumentals that are great and then there’s this. This is such a beautiful rendition! It brings back a world of memories and emotion. It’s one of those rare videos on here that really hits me emotionally… 10/10!!

That gorgeous tremolo took me home, man. I’ve listened to this about twenty times already.

Thank you, I was finally about to study. And now I have to watch a trilogy first. Great cover for a great song well done :)

[@andrewgraves4500]

I am a musician of many instruments, but never perfected anything specific. If I could choose to play guitar like anyone Id choose you bud. Your focus, passion and care that you put into your finger movements and picking is unmatched. I wish I knew you in real life because I would stick my 6 year old and my 2 year old in front of you so they can witness such a rarity. Never stop playing bud. I may have missed the boat to achieve BTG level skills but I can live vicariously through your videos and itunes licks. I am going to go tear up in a corner now and finish my rice krispies treat in silence because this one deserves the respect of pure silence for a minute.

[@tonydarre9954]

You'd have to be a pretty big fan of Lord of the Rings to get any joy out of this video. I am now full of joy.

[@DorothyOzmaLover]

Your emotive playing that's pleasingly melodic is quite inspiring to me as a guitarist who likes playing themes and film scores, and when you play the melody in the higher octave it sounds so divine!

[@dangirotto]

Awesome! I watch your videos for years and still get amazed at each song. My 6yo son just slept in my arms while we were listening to this one 😄

[@federicavergaro]

I'm not crying, I just have something in my eye ... 🥺😭😭

Found this video by pure chance. You're very talented! That was a beautiful rendition of a timeless song. Takes me back to when I first watched the trilogy in theatres years ago. Can you even begin to imagine that it's been twenty years already? Crazy how time flies. LOTR is one of the best, if not the best movie franchise and story of all time. I'm itching to watch the extended version again sometime. Anyhow, good stuff and take care.
