Where now the Horse and the Rider?

[@crusader5256]

Blest mayst thou be, thy voice so fair as the calm stream running through the quiet forest. Alas that the days have past, and this fair song may be forgotten.

[@phantasmagoriac9225]

"The world is changed; I can feel it in the water, I can feel it in the earth, I can smell it in the air." It no longer is the way it used to be :(. It is an understatement. Beautiful song by the way.

[@kingrepoman]

"Ride forth! And fear no darkness!"

[@OdeeOz]

*I can relate to this song. Miss riding trails, far away from the insanity.*

[@johnlastname8752]

At some of my darkest times I've sang this rendition to myself and it has always somehow helped. Thank you so much for this piece of music.

[@YolandaMottMusic]

You're very welcome. Thank you for sharing that. 🌌

[@TheEquallibrium]

Her voice is like a light in the dark, mesmerizing those that dwell in the shadows.

[@pedromichelutti8204]

Thank you so much for sharing your work and art. Your voice and music is like that of an angel (or Valar)

[@walterchronic3473]

[@ДушанРадин-ы3ю]

I just love this song,made by Yolanda.

[@evangelosnikitopoulos]

Well that settles it. You are the best Tolkien artist on KZbin. I got chills.

[@thetowerfantasymusic]

So calm a voice... your LOTR covers are the greatest pieces of music I've ever heard, thank you.

[@primus7776]

Magnificent, and so Beautiful.

[@skipperhawk2438]

Few videos make me stop like this one.... Amazing, perfect pitch and rhythm (to my ears)

[@alexa1898]

I love your voice. Listen to this song constantly and I do not get enough. Your voice is beautiful and I like your idea to take Tolkien's lyrics and putting them on the music. So wonderful!

[@YolandaMottMusic]

Thank you Ruthie...This was the very first of Tolkien's poems that I wrote music to...I have plans to someday create a full album from my Tolkien project. I appreciate your encouragement!

[@ellawilken]

Oh, please do! We want a full album! Especially of those pieces I can't find other renditions of: Froto's Lament, Legolas' Song, Galadriel's Message... They're all so beautiful!

[@_siggi_783]

Very good

[@angercairns5945]

You have the voice of an angel and the violin in the background is incredible. You are possibly without exception my favourite singer of all time. Lizmiah.xx

[@tronapage]

This was so wondrous...so very moving.

[@2b-coeur]

Your voice... My mouth seriously dropped open. So... Beautiful. You should be famous. WHY ARE ALL THE GOOD CHANNELS SO UNPOPULAR???

[@justangela1684]

Agreed. This channel needs a lot more traffic. And her voice is so angelic. I am looking forward to her next recording.

[@justangela1684]

I have listened to all your songs ans this on is definitely my favorite. It brought me to tears.

[@YolandaMottMusic]

Angela!! Thanks for listening! 🥰 I'm so glad you liked it and that you felt the sadness of the words that I tried to convey in the music 💔

[@WinterCalling]

Really good music

[@jade2931]

You need a CD devoted to Tolkien songs!! So good!! Or an iTunes store.... i love your music ♡

[@luciusanddraco]

So beautiful the only song that can calm me down to sleep thank you

[@levilukeskytrekker]

This is so deeply incredible.

[@Swimrgrl8]

I love the way you took Tolkien's words and set them to music!

[@Morveth]

Just amazing. I really love this song. A worthy tribute to Tolkien's rhymes.

[@YolandaMottMusic]

Thanks!!

[@thetowerfantasymusic]

Hey Yolanda, I have composed myself a second verse to this poem entitled "Lament for the Rohirrim verse 2", and I was wondering if you'd be interested in recording and singing it in the melody of this first song. Cheers, hope to hear from you.

[@Valkyrist]

Absolutely haunting and sublime...

[@littlellieflower]

I've had this on repeat for ages, it is beautiful, thank you for sharing it with us!

[@merlinbbcs4rox]

Can you please do Legolas and Aragorns farewell to Boromir? Their song to him please? xx

[@davahanly183]

[@curtissutton3331]

[@lefranccomteur4227]

Thanks ! it was great !

[@sapphirevilya]

I love all of your songs! I wish the sound on this one was a little stronger, but nothing major really. I have used this one in my video, and have given credit to you. As a major Tolkien enthusiast, thank you for sharing your lovely work!

[@em5590]

Beatufel👍

[@littlellieflower]

It is so beautiful, you really sound like someone out of Middle Earth.

[@Mongryung]

Beautiful... Quite frankly, they should be on the soundtrack/in the films...

[@justangela1684]

Exactly!

[@weird-core]

Lament for Rohirrim...

[@Radanle]

Fantastic! Deserves way more views than this!

[@justangela1684]

Right?!

[@bleedingmasque.6193]

You need to partner with Clamavi de Profundis.

[@mrchow3177]

If think what he meant by corn is wheat, not maize as the picture shows, but nevermind haha

[@coocoo2803]

Who is this person? her voice is like silk...

[@livmas10]

It's the person who posted it ... I know I love her songs especially the ones of Tolkien that she's put to music there very lovely and angelic thanks for your hard work it's really paid off!

[@justangela1684]

It's Yolanda Mott. ❤️☺️ Have you seen her music video? Stunning!

[@michaelexman5474]

From Anglosaxon the wanderer which I have never been able to pin down

[@MrEpeeFencer]

Many of these songs could be about the current state of Europe and the West.

[@MrCmon113]

No, there is really no connection whatsoever.

[@ДушанРадин-ы3ю]

True,but,since Western Europe betrayed Eastern,why should we care anymore?

[@DarthBigBen]

Even if I agree with you, no using Tolkien to justify politics!

[@sethtedder3173]

I don't know your opinions in the context of this poem and song, and I don't care to know them. What I do know is Tolkien would have nothing to do with these petty, angry comments.

[@sethtedder3173]

If anybody here knows Tolkien, you would know this is talking about the Saxon culture, of which Tolkien was a scholar, particularly the Saxon culture within his home country of England. It is not contemporary, as Tolkien has passed. Any potential comparisons and similarities to the present cannot be attributed to Tolkien, only modern interpretations of something written in and about the past. Specifically, Tolkien was lamenting the passing of the Saxon milieu, which by his time had long since passed into history. More broadly, within Tolkien's lifetime, industrialization was sweeping away its last vestiges.
