Lord of The Rings | The Shire - Music from the Soundtrack - Visual Escape 

Checkout our playlist of our other videos with music! bit.ly/32dPhct What are some other soundtracks that you would love to see with beautiful visuals? :)

My father is 76 years old. He has NEVER been into the fantasy genre in any sense. Over the last 15 years, I have tried numerous times to get him to watch LOTR with me to no avail. This past Christmas, I was able to FINALLY convince him to sit down and watch at least The Fellowship Of The Rings (extended version) with me. Within a 5 day span, we finished ALL 3 Extended Versions and my 76 years old father was in tears by the end of it and thanked me for sharing them with him. He told me "I haven't enjoyed a journey like that in a long time".

The Shire is my idea of what heaven must be like.

This sound is so wonderful. The person who is reading this comment , i wish you great success , health, love and happiness !!!

- never remake these movies. - treasure that must never be touched.

This is where time stops and life begins.

My husband passed away last year in October 2022. We watched all of the Lord of th Rings and Hobbit movies together a few months before he died. We loved them. I listen to this and I feel like he is near. I hope where he is now looks just like these beautiful mountainsides in the Hobbit. 💚

"Farewell, Master Burglar. Go back to your armchair, your books. Plant your trees, watch them grow. If more of us valued home above gold, this would be a merrier world." -- Thorin, a dear friend

I'm homesick to a place I've never been to.

makes me wanna re-watch LOTR for 9999th time. It's such a masterpiece.

If you see this, I want to thank you for living with me on the same planet. You are not alone in this world. I hope this comment can make at least one person happy. This is all I want and wish you health and a happy life with your loved ones ❤❤❤

To anyone reading this, I hope one day you will get your own beautiful adventure, just as the ones in "The Lord of the rings". I hope you will find your own Shire, and reach the peak of your happiness. I hope you will live your life exactly the way you want to.

I wish the entire world was this peaceful and simple.

It brings my heart joy to see so many Tolkien fans in here. I love finding family I didn't know I had.

Still the most beautiful music in 2024. Who remembers the day they went first time to cinema to see the first movie.

I'm at the age now where I can't help but shed tears whenever I hear this music. Lord of the Rings is just simply... unreal

I have a little green house on the roof of my coffeshop in Thailand and every morning when I wake up I will make a coffee and go up to take care of my plants... while I drink my coffee I'll put up this music and look at the sun rises... Life is beautiful, be grateful for what you have and appreciate it for a moment, that little moment will make a big difference in your day☺️

"if I take one more step, it'll be the farthest from home I've ever been"

I took a friend of mine to see the Fellowship of the Ring in 2001. He wasn’t a book reader and didn’t go for fantasy. He was so enthralled in it that when Gandalf fell from the Khazad-Dûm bridge against the Balrog, he stood up in the theatre and screamed, ‘NO!’. He was so upset, but where else do you get such an emotional soar from a mainstream film these days.

This is where fantasy truly began in my life, and reality faded away. Now I'm almost 30 years old and realizing that reality is nothing like what my dreams were as a child.

It's like the great stories, Mr. Frodo, the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were, and sometimes you didn't want to know the end because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad has happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing this shadow, even darkness must pass. A new day will come, and when the sun shines, it'll shine out the clearer. I know now folks in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going because they were holding on to something. That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for. Samwise Gamgee

This was my brother and mine favorite movie. He adored Boromir and I adored Faramir. We used to listen to LOTR music together. Now for almost a year I listen to it alone and reminisce on our childhood. How we pretended to be hobbits, stole corn from the neighbors. Were overall rascals. Now fast forward twenty years I am sitting under the sky alone and whenever I go to visit his grave I play this.

I love the shire music, it has a unique ability to make you feel safe and at home.

I always found LOTR soundtracks so beautiful, it actually hurts

My best friend of over 20 years suddenly died yesterday. We both loved Lord of the Rings. We made up entire lives for ourselves in Middle Earth. I hope she is in a place similar to the Shire now. Namarie, mellon nin. I love you and I am honoured and grateful to have been loved by you.

Remember, it's just a bad day, not a bad life.

Most people are waiting for their Hogwarts letter, but I am waiting for a gray wizard with fireworks to come.

Anyone else get rediculously emotional with LOTR music? Guilty as chagred.

My friend and i loved the Lord of the Rings books. We both loved reading the books and when we both turned 12, we could watch the movies (we were 11 at the time). My birthday is on May the 15th, his May the 26th. Time flew by as we were so excited to watch the movies. When i turned 12, i got the dvd's of all the 3 films, but i made a promise to my friend we would watch them together for the first time so, i waited until his 12th birthday. As soon as we came home from school, we made popcorn and watched them all in one sitting. It was an absolute joy to watch them. We both loved gaming so when we heard that there would be coming a LEGO Lord of the Rings game, we "jumped holes in the ceiling" my mom said. We waited for what seemed like YEARS for the game to release. And when the time had finally come, we rushed to the store and bought 1 disc. As soon as we got home we put in my xBox 360 and played it every, single, day. Make homework as soon as you come home frome school? No, play LEGO Lord of the Rings. We completed it in like 2 - 3 weeks. We knew there was an upcoming move from The Hobbit. We also loved reading the books of The Hobbit so when we heard that, we couldn't be more excited. The movie got released 2 or 3 weeks after we completed playing LEGO Lord of the Rings so we didn't have to wait long. Again, we rushed home after school to watch the new movie (our moms had gotten the movies for us). We loved it. We pulled an all-nighter. Around the time when the 2nd The Hobbit movie got released, my friend got sick. We first thought it was just a simple cold so we ignored it. But he didn't got any better so, he went to the doctor and it turned out he got Stage 3 cancer. We of course were in absolute shock. In a short period of time, it got worse and worse and he had to go to the hospital. He couldn't do much except lay in bed (this was around Christmas). The 2nd Hobbit movie had just released but this time, it didn't feel good. We couldn't pull an all-nighter and watch it as we did with the previous ones. As Christmas gift, i have him the 2nd Hobbit movie. We both were so excited to watch it together, even though it had to be different this time (i hadn't seen it yet). We had such joy watching it in the hospital. A few months had passed and things still wouldn't get better. Around our birthdays, things even got so bad he had to move to an other hospital. Things went a little better, but again around November things got really really bad. He sadly passed away, a few weeks before the 3rd movie got released. I couldn't stop crying for weeks. It felt so bad to watch the movie without him. When LEGO The Hobbit came out, i played it on the exact same place as we used to play together. The soundtracks, the books, the movies, the games, it all reminds me of him. Especially the soundtracks. Every year around our birthdays and christmas, i listen to this to feel more connected again. (And Matthew, if you see this, i collected all the coins as you always wanted me to do)

who else can hear the dialogue during some of these pieces. It also makes me appreciate the art of scoring music and synchronizing it to such dialogue so that it has the perfect balance. LOTR will always be a masterpiece in every respect. There aren't many flawless films like this.

I get emotional internally. My Son and I watched them together when they were showing at the movie theaters. Now that I don't see him much anymore. I cherish those precious moments together and him answer my questions. explaining to me. Those moments are mine to keep.

Everyone who reads this, we don't know each other and probably never will but I wish you all the best in life and all the luck in the world 💕

I wish I could go back in time and relive the experience of watching Lord of the Rings for the first time.

I and my 3 sisters watched LOTR trilogy for the first time with our father. He was the one who got all these movies for us and fight with mom to get us free from studying to watch them. Today he goes in for a major heart surgery of which we are very anxious and worried. I am too far away from him to hold his hand. Listening to this music makes all those memories flood back with my father in all of them. Once he is out of the surgery we are gonna watch this trilogy again. It is such a masterpiece.

Боже, в одной лишь песне чувствуется эта свобода, благодать, умиротворение, как же прекрасна Новозеландия, шир. 😌 Всегда мечтал жить в таком вот месте, где нет не войн, не тебе современных гаджетов, лишь жизнь в тихом и спокойном Хоббитоне.

"I know you doubt me, you always have. And you're right, I often think of Bag End; I miss my books, and my arm chair, and my garden... See that's where I belong, that's home. And that's why I came back, you don't have one. A home, it was taken from you. But I will help you take it back if I can" -Bilbo Baggins My favorite line & moment in both trilogies

Wish i could delete my memory and watch LOtR trilogy for the first time again. We're lucky to live in the time when we can witness this true masterpiece. Best story ever told. Thank You John R.R. Tolkien and Sir Peter Robert Jackson. My heart belongs to Middle-Earth forever ❤️

If I’m ever in hospice, I want this sort of thing on a loop 24/7.

I find myself tearing up when I read the first paragraph of the hobbit, and now I full on cry hearing this and seeing it. It's like my heart yearns for a home that doesn't exist. A peace I can't have.

LoTR represents that kind of homesick and love we feel deep in our heart. It is a world of our well felt and thought childhood days, full of harmony, fantasy, and frienship.

"Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It'll be spring soon. And the orchards will be in blossom. And the birds will be nesting in the hazel thicket. And they'll be sowing the summer barley in the lower fields... and eating the first of the strawberries with cream."

If you are reading this, I want to tell you that everything will be fine. You are incredible, you are unique you can face anything in your life, you have strength within yourself to overcome any obstacle, loss or situation. You are not alone,you are loved, you have the right to feel bad and good, you have the right to feel. Be blessed by this positive vibes and live your life to the fullest. I’m sending my love to the universe.

There have been few movies to tear me up, but my god, LoTR was one trilogy that stands above them all. The artistry, the acting, the world building, the music, and the very heart of this entire world makes me tear up inside. It makes me long for a world, a place, a people that we can never truly know. But we get a glimpse of it through the movies. Let this be a message to the future generations. I don't care how old this movie becomes in 30, 40, 70 years, never let this master piece of a series and imagination die.

I’m new to the lord of the rings fandom. I’ve watched the movies the first time a few weeks ago with my dad. He loves them and is a fan for so many years like before the movies even came out. Now I’m currently reading the book and I’m so fascinated by this story and how one person is able to create something beautiful like this just in their head

I wish I was there. A life without stress, electronics, huge unnecessary buildings without cars and streets. Just live in a small, cozy cave and live from field work and the things you do by hand. Where everyone knows each other and everyone is friendly.

My wife is already asleep and I'm enjoying this wonderful music while playing World of Warcraft and drinking my favorite Budweiser beer. Good night and greetings from Brazil.

This sound is so wonderful. The person who is reading this comment , i wish you great success , health, love and happiness !🙏

Everyone is waiting for a Hogwarts letter but I'm waiting for an old wizard to come with fireworks...

I will leave this here because it's a good memory. My father and my grandfather were also lovers of Tolkien's world, it was my grandfather who introduced me to this beautiful writings in warm summer vacation days when i was 9 years old lad. We watched the movies together with hype. However not long after five armies did my grandfather passed away into light . Myself and my Dad are sad but also eternally happy that he could live to see the movies in cinemas with us with the orchestra playing. Most importantly the memories we made together that will last more than a lifetime. Now off to nurturing my baby son, i can't wait till he grows up so his grandfather introduces him to Tolkien's world. Life goes on and so will i ❤️😭.

Let's salute the work of Howard Shore who has created MAGNIFICENT music, including the one LÀ which is my favorite. ❤

I've been listening to this music and waves for many nights to help me rest. I struggle to fall asleep because of pain. I read a few comments for the first time tonight and my heart was warmed within me. To those who come after me and read my comment, allow yourself to be encouraged by the words of others here. Let your heart, mind, and body be put at ease, at lest for the night. You are not really alone.

I couldn’t describe in words how much I love these movies, these books, this score. There are no words to convey what the Lord of the Rings means to me.

One soundtrack to rule them all

“Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It'll be spring soon. And the orchards will be in blossom. And the birds will be nesting in the hazel thicket. And they'll be sowing the summer barley in the lower fields... and eating the first of the strawberries with cream. Do you remember the taste of strawberries?”

The moment I started watching it was like the world paused and all the chaos stopped with it. A true visual escape the uplifting tones of The Shire will never cease to calm the storm within.

Crazy to think that The Fellowship of the Ring will be 20 years old this December.

Whenever my wife and I finally visit this place, I'll be playing this soundtrack/video on my phone with earbuds in my ears, and tears will roll down my face.

Every I listen to masterpiece I come to tears. Such A beautiful movie it was will always be.

Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Narnia, The Odyssey, Gulliver's Travels ... these are just a few of my favorite things. Epic.

This is where I would like to spend the rest of my life at! The Shire represents a place of peace and tranquility for me and where my new life begins! I will for now travel there one day to escape the craziness of today's endless problems so who is here to join me on this journey?

this. this is beautiful. this can make a man cry

I'm here from the Star Wars community, but I pay my respects and condolences to the fellow Lord of The Rings community, surely a great masterpiece, unrivalled in its share.

Боже мой, как вспоминаю про Властелин колец, то сразу же первым эти прекрасные и светлые нотки, такой хороший и прям родной Шир вспоминаю 😊❤ Больше всех у меня ассоциации этой музыки с Властелином колец😌 Как же очень давно всё это было.. Как же я скучаю по детству😔😭 Теперь никогда нам не вернуться обратно в наше детство 🥺 Как же я хотел отплыть с эльфами, вместе с Фродо и Гендальфом 😅😂 Пройдут года, пройдут дни, но этот шедевр кинематографии будет с нами в наших памяти всегда❤ Спасибо за прекрасное детство, Спасибо Властелин колец 😊

When there's summer in my village, this is the music I hear. So green. So bright. The lakes sparkling, the farmers working, the flowers blooming. The scent of grass. Home.

I live about a 3 hour drive from this set. I've visited and it is literally like this!! Beautiful memories!!

So much love . Love to everyone reading

Aotearoa (New Zealand) is so pretty, a bit of Heaven on earth and the musik is a perfect match. Win-win!

For everyone reading this, I hope you can relax and de-stress. Push your doubt aside, and allow clarity to replace anxiety. Good luck and all the best.

The first time I saw Bilbo Baggins home I fell in LOVE with it. The colors, the homely peacefulness, so quaint and inviting. Something in the Human Spirit longs for that quiet simplicity, it just speaks to your soul and draws you in. Something inside says there it is, that's what I have been seeking, how I long to live there forever. Just shows me what a sham this present life here on earth appears to be. We do not need larger homes, cars, fancy clothes and expensive vacations, those are just things to fill a void that can never really be filled by material wealth. My heart cries out for a more just, loving and peaceful place.. Amen

Hey you. Yes, you. You're probably scrolling through the comments, like I am, reading all these motivational comments. If you are reading this at night, you should get some sleep, and don't stress about everything going on in the world, or what you are going through. Don't dwell on things from the past, don't stress on your future. Just live your life, because you only get one. Do whatever makes you happy, not what other people want from you. For me, I'm gonna wake up tomorrow morning, get some exercise, and cherish life for the amazing blessing that it is. I hope you do the same and have an amazing day as well! Stay safe and stay relaxed

I'm emotionally bounded with this Unofficial New Zealand 🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿 Anthem

Whoever is reading this, you are healed, you are loved, you are worthy, I love you. Everything is temporary, everything is changing and you will come out of this hard time shinning so brightly like the beautiful star that you are. Don't give up things will change for the better 💖🌟🤗

When you listen to this music and see these places, it's like you can't be angry with anyone anymore, compassion pervades you and you just want the good for everyone, it's something magical, cool!

I've been there. One of the most beautiful places on earth, this living set. I daydream and fantasize about going back one day with a feast at the Green Dragon at the end. It's absolutely unforgettable and Howard Shore's music breaks your heart for not living there.

If everyone watched this first thing in the morning the world would be a bit more peaceful ❤❤

I dont have words to describe my appreciation to Tolkein's magical work with the Shire, and how Peter Jackson brought it life. Truly amazing.

I saw the Lord of the rings for the 1st time and I loved it Today

This brings me to a place that’s hard to describe it brings me back to me and my father. Times that have passed and times still yet to come. Whoever is reading this, I wish you peace and happiness I hope you can feel the same way with this music

The Shire is literal heaven😅 This soundtrack is a masterpiece!!!

When these films came out, my mother was prescribed with a terminally ill disease.. i used to watch them repeatedly, for their message of hope and winning against all odds.. Got me through some tough times.. Love this music so much.. I can hear the the hope in the pipes and horns..

Why can’t the world live like this utopia, watching this finally makes me happy

This music and visuals appeal to many perhaps because it captures the feeling of simplicity, of happiness and more importantly, the sense of peace that comes with the feeling of hope.

LOTR is not just a movie but an emotion for all of us LOTR Fam!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

For those who's never been to New Zealand, it really is a magical place

15:44 "My friends, you bow to no one."

The scenery is stunning and brings back such warm memories. That said, it seems so lonely without Hobbits walking about.

I finally watched the LOTR trilogy and The Hobbit trilogy and although my favorites are the first movie of each trilogy, I loved all of them! I started watching them in the summer of 2022 and it’s now early 2023 and I’ve rewatched all of them hundreds of times🤭 The mind of J.R.R. Tolkien…😮WOW! He had such an amazing imagination, I’m glad he shared it with us! Off to Middle Earth I go….🙋🏻‍♀️

Lord of the Rings is the perfect movie. There is no film that have managed to produce in terms of art as much as The Lord of the Rings. When you watch the film, you are totally immersed in this universe.

I've visited hobbiton... And even though I knew it was a movie set, I knew that this was the place I wanted to spend the rest of my life.... So my mission in life is now to make this a real home.

this is not just a visual escape, but a mental escape. i love these films to death, the word masterpiece gets flung around to easily these days. these films are literal perfection to me, they are masterpieces in every way.

The fact that this is a real place is amazing. It's been on my bucket list for years to go to New Zealand and visit a big part of what made my childhood.

The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit are my favorite books and movies. And the music is beautiful.

The shire is the home I was always meant to return to.

the sound track in this movie is more than enough to make one want to watch the movie. Nothing of a sort can be compared. the composer is such a talent.

i visited this place irl (new zealand) it is honestly such a beautiful and peaceful place, no matter the weather. rainy, windy, sunny...its breathtaking and so peaceful. i love it

Watching this is like eating candy :)
