If you're like me, then you've probably listened to the LotR soundtracks over and over. Which song have you found the most inspiring? For me, it's definately 'Twilight and Shadow', track no. 8 on the RotK soundtrack. I'm melancholy by nature, and when I listen to this beautifully sad song, it makes me want to cry...in a good way.

Definitely "The Grey Havens" & "The Breaking Of The Fellowship". I absolutely adore those two.
One I can't go past as well is "Gollum's Song" by Emiliana Torrini.

"Gollum's Song" and "Anduril" have always been the most beautiful and haunting tracks. I also love "The End of All Things".

The Bridge of Khazad-Dum and Concerning Hobbits are pretty good.

Rivendell by Rush


Eighth King of Arthedain - It was in battle that I come into this Kingship, and it will be in Battle when I leave it. There is no peace for the Realm of Arnor. Read the last stand of Arthedain in the Darkest of Days.

I do not have the soundtracks yet (very unfortunate), but for now my favorite is "The Breaking of the Fellowship". Man, I need to get my hands on the soundtracks!

I'll limit myself to four per CD

Fellowship:

At the Sign of the Prancing Pony
The Bridge of Khazad-Dum
The Great River

TTT:
The Riders of Rohan
The Uruk-Hai
The King of the Golden Hall
Isengard Unleashed

ROTK:
Minas Tirith
The Ride of the Rohirrim
The Black Gate Opens
The Return of the King

However, my favourite songs change ALL THE TIME, so tomorrow I may have different picks. I always enjoy these ones, though

I love listening to 'The Council of Elrond' and 'The Road goes ever on pt.II' from FotR, 'Evenstar' from TTT and 'The Houses of Healing' and 'the Return of the King' from RotK. That list is incomplete, but those are the songs I thought of at once. I'd better leave now before I start thinking about all the others...

I love the Shire themesong and the words that go with it, pretty much any of the other themesongs that go with certain places including Rivendell, Lórien, and Rohan, the Houses of Healing song, Pippin's song, and Into the West. I found guitar cords to Into the West, so I can play it whenever I want!!

I love all of them. But my favorite is definately Lothlorien, from the Lord of the Rings Musical Complete Cast Recordings.

Otherwise I love the extended music...

umm. All of them?

All the music was amazing! :love:
