I had so much fun working on this! Glad to see it finally published.

This is amazing! I'm so glad you make these beautiful masterpieces.

[@philmen32]

Thank you. It was a collaboration. My goal is to be musical and be true to Tolkien’s spirit and his text.

[@svadai2548]

Beautiful, I love original takes on Tolkien's stories. Great work guys. And stay strong, your videos may not get millions of views, but we who are here appreciate you very much. ❤

I am so glad I am catching up to season 7. If you need a Baritone for anything I am so down. Spent 5 years on a vocal performance degree that I would love to Put to good use. I would love to lend my vocals to anything you have need past and present!!!

great work, keep it up

[@trangluong3537]

I would like a tad more drama in there for such a momentous battle… Great interpretation though!

[@philmen32]

Find me an animator and we could add a lot more drama than static image can ever do. The script that this is taken from has more drama.

@@philmen32 Well, for such great music, I hope you find one soon!

Way too underrated

@@saishamendiratta2255 I’m glad you think that. Share it with your friends.

Yes, Finrod would be a tenor. It is rather painful, though, when they are both singing a flat.

[@philmen32]

I am glad that their dissonance was so unsettling.

[@Rhron]

I was so hoping to see this singing scene in Rings of Power series only to be so disappointed 😔 Were the words sung in this battle in the book of Simarilion?

[@philmen32]

There was never any chance that the song battle would be in Rings of Power. As to the words, they have been adapted from The Silmarillion by our very talented scriptwriter Ilana. The text in the book and in the Lay of Lethian if you read it is from the point of view of the narrator describing the song battle. The words had to be changed to be from the point of view of Finrod and Sauron.

[@saishamendiratta2255]

No, the words in the silmarillion are different, in the book it is more like a bardic song

[@jasmidnurmi9857]

Does anyone know of any good fanfics about this battle? I would love to read about it, but haven't found any.
