[@matthewpaddon3895]

“End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it. White shores, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise.

[@historictruthlarson4910]

That doesn't sound so bad....

[@blisterbeetle01]

​​@@historictruthlarson4910(whitstful smile, and distant look in the eyes) No...no, it isnt...

[@shep9231]

Even in death, the journey does not end.

[@robbiesharp4596]

You should know when Tolkien had Gandalf saying that he actually was describing heaven.

[@ADragon-gi9mr]

I hope.

[@chuckjohnson5235]

This is the first ending to a movie where I wept. Never has a film moved me so. The greatest trilogy ever made.

[@lilyfarseer7658]

God, this is amazing. I remember seeing this movie in theaters. I'd lost my seat to someone who let their friends in and wouldn't move, so I stood the whole movie. The feeling of elation! The sweeping conclusion! Crying like kid while clinging to an Army guy who was also crying! I love this song, and every memory it brings of the journey I had along the way of the movie releases.

[@orcaboi1558]

KINDA a dick move of them to steal your seat though..

[@LydiaBloomdahl]

Jesus loves you! God bless! 🩵

It is surely the most beautiful, haunting music ever.....it takes me to another place..... I feel it, as much as hear it.

[@garmadonthesensei59]

Only a few seconds in and this is already fricking INCREDIBLE. "Into the West" has such a profound impact on me. It's the perfect song to end the series on, such a bittersweet yet overwhelmingly hopeful note. And the score during Gandalf's speech, wow. ❤

[@Cybernaut551]

“I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien

[@Frankje01]

isn't it insane how powerful these words are when you've experienced the whole journey, when they sound quite ordinary when you just look at the words as they are.

[@ds4629]

So many emotions are associated with this song, hope, sorrow, pride, love. All combined. I love it.

[@F01810]

Man this makes me tear up, the end of LOTR wasn't just the end of a movie, it was the end of a journey, one that I'll never forget

[@1701EarlGrey]

Nice way to celebrate 20 years of "Return of the King" ! Really cool cover of beautifully bitter-sweet song, which bring me back to better days!

[@salvatoreschiano900]

Gandalf: "I will not say: 'Do not weep'; for not all tears are an evil ...!" 🥲😢😭🥺

From 3:13, the most majestic, victorious and powerful piece of music this poor ears have ever heard in it's entire 45yrs of life.....

I know right. I will never hear a better sound in my life. This song sounds like it was made by an angel.

[@waltertomaszewski1083]

According to the special section on the Director’s Cut of *The Return of The King*, this song, ‘Into The West’, was written about a 17-year-old New Zealander with a rare form of terminal cancer. He’d even done a video about it. At one point, he’d dreamt the cancer had gone into remission, and he was on his way to a cure. He died shortly afterwards. He was only 17. This song and ‘Use Well The Days’ are tributes to him. I am 64. How old is anyone reading this?

[@mr.badwolf7356]

The beauty of Tolkien's mythology is that it is a mythology of hope. Here, at the end of his most well known story, you may find the heart of that hope! Frodo, for all of his valiant efforts and those of Sam beside him, was unable to resist the powers of temptation that Sauron wielded. By that definition, he should be denied entry into Valinor, not be rewarded for his failure! And yet, as Tolkien points out in Gandalf's words "The pity of Bilbo [and Frodo] shall rule the fate of many." It's not about succeeding at the task that is given but rather what we do to accomplish that task, both before and after the event, that truly matters the most! Were it not for Bilbo's pity and Frodo's mercy, Gollum could not have accompanied Frodo and Sam to Mount Doom and if that never happened, then Frodo would have taken the Ring for himself and the world would fall into ruin before the return of Sauron. Thus it is that Frodo's journey to Valinor is not a reward for failing at his most important task, for none could've truly accomplished the task or even make it to Mount Doom, save for a very select few! Rather his journey into the west is a reward for loving the miserable, hoping for the unimaginable, and carrying a burden so dark that it waged a war for his soul every day of his life since the night that he first picked up the Ring off of the floor of Bag End! He was never meant to succeed! He was only expected to show more mercy and kindness than most would in such a circumstance! Heaven is not for perfect immortals to sneer at failure and vice, but rather is where imperfect mortals through failure can become perfected and know truly eternal peace!

[@bum-fp3ih]

Damn it... so many emotions I feel now. This video deserves be listened for all who love the work of Tolkien and Peter Jackson. A great job 👏👏👏 Into the West by Lenox and Shore is when the ships go to Valinor. This epic version is when Frodo, Bilbo, the elves, Gandalf and his horse arrives to Valinor 🌟🌟🌟

[@mr.badwolf7356]

And don't ever forget about the horse! 😂😂😂

[@coreliandude76]

Lay down Your sweet and weary head The night is falling You have come to journey's end Sleep now And dream of the ones who came before They are calling From across the distant shore Why do you weep? What are these tears upon your face? Soon you will see All of your fears will pass away Safe in my arms You're only sleeping What can you see On the horizon? Why do the white gulls call? Across the sea A pale moon rises The ships have come to carry you home And all will turn To silver glass A light on the water All Souls pass Hope fades Into the world of night Through shadows falling Out of memory and time Don't say We have come now to the end White shores are calling You and I will meet again And you'll be here in my arms Just sleeping And all will turn To silver glass A light on the water Grey ships pass Into the West

[@tn28410]

Amazing work ! 🔥 I was bit dissapointed when i voted for lotr cover in last poll, since SW was way ahead, then this masterpiece comes out ! Beautifully made, love the choir ! You managed to keep sensibility (dunno if its the right word in this context) of this piece and still make it strong and EPIC. Love it, thank you my friend. 💛 Ps, have you seen Oppenheimer allready ? 😊

[@Pianistec]

Thank you so much my friend! I knew youll be very happy about another lotr song :DD Yes, the poll was just for my interest, not for the final choice. And to be realistic, it doesnt matter what i write into a poll, Star Wars will always be voted to number 1 x) Yes I saw it, absolutely stunning movie! I also thought about covering the song you suggested but it seems like the hype is over ... Im gonna think about it. But Im also working on a secret project rn, soon you will know 🤫

Hi I wanna make a fanvid of lotr to celebrate return of the king 20th anniversary and was waiting to find the right music and I absolutely love what you have done here with one of the most beautiful tracks. Would it be okay to use it in a fanvid with full credit to your channel for the music? I'd be using dialogue from the film but the music may be prominent at times and I'm not sure if that lies within your rules. Thanks for any info!

[@phillipmeyer4059]

This song has always been bittersweet for me, kind of like the ending of Lord of the Rings. It definitely makes me think about the afterlife and relatives and friends who have passed as well as the sober reality of my own death and what will happen afterward. Similar to 1 Thessalonians 4:13, it gives hope but does not take any of the sadness away. When my grandma died, I kept thinking about this song over and over again. 1 Thessalonians 4:13. Tolkien was a mastermind and wrote a wonderful ending to LOTR. Although the films were not as good, with respect to some of the characters, they helped people envision the world of Middle Earth. 1
