I know Im randomly asking but does any of you know a tool to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost my account password. I would love any help you can offer me.
Does anyone else literally cry whenever they think about the lyrics and how it’s all over Like I know that the show is coming out but it’s not the same. It feels colder, less like home, which is how the movies felt.
waybright_elisabeth _Quinn It would have been cool if the show was about the backstory of the history of Middle Earth. Like the Simarillion, Beren and Luthien, or Children of Hurin. Things that could work and fit with the Peter Jackson films...so it wouldn’t taint the 6 special films..alas, they want it to make it about LOTR, I hope they deliver well.
Lord of the rings and the Hobbit, hit me like no other story. maybe it's because a now deceased family member that introduced me to it, maybe because of how good the films or maybe both. it just feels unreal that it's all over and that there will never be anything like it again.
No he won't. Tolkien family and people have said ''NO'', and that's it. I am glad actually as it is too difficult (and would be boring) to make into a film. USE YOUR IMAGINATION!!! It is too weird/outwordly and wouldn't work as a film.(Well, not for 'normal cinema-goers...) It might become a small screen epic...but I doubt it.I was asked to read it and discuss it in 1978 so I do know what I am talking about.
I know it is a world wide thing but for me, being in the states after 9/11, the LOTR films were a comfort each holiday season for 2001 - 2003. So was Harry Potter. I think it’s why it still is.
so glad that i was born and grew up to watch both HP and LOTR/ the Hobbit i mean this two have the greatest and the most amazing gift of memories that i could share with my future kids someday.
I agree. I made so many friends online because of all these movies and we would always go to the premiere of the next films and meet up to talk about the movies/books. It was so amazing growing up this way - with these amazing films, books and during a time when the internet was less toxic place.
Billy Boyd had captured how I feel about goodbyes. I hate them they are so sad. I don’t like feeling sad. I can’t express myself when I’m sad. Billy has done it for me.
We played this song at my dads funeral, he didn’t get the chance to see the last part of the hobbit and hear this song. He introduced me to the lord of the rings and it very quickly became my favourite films and books of all time! Love you dad 💚
I grew up with Harry Potter, watched Lord of the Rings captured the world and re-visited Middle Earth with the Hobbit. Billy's voice heralding the last goodbye to a beloved world was just magic.
I was really depressed last year I planned my funeral and I wanted this to be the last song to be played. Luckily I was strong enough to fight through this awful disease and makes me appreciate this song so so much. Thankyou for an amazing song.
Know that somewhere across the globe, where I am from you, that you are someone who I think is immeasurably inspiring. Thank you. Thank you for being strong enough to get through everything that came your way, and I am happy you are still on this earth to experience the days that come after.
7 months on from this comment, I hope you are still here doing healthy and achieving every goal you can! I don't know you but sending positive vibes to you brother!
Not only is this song good for ending The Hobbit, the lyrics apply to real life. It applies to those friends and family that have been with you since the beginning of your hardships. I want this song at my funeral. Because, yes it's sad. But the song also seem somberly happy. It tells people to hold on to the memories and to live their life remembering the journey. That's what I want my family and friends to do. The song is so powerful when you apply it to your actual life. I keep getting a lump in my throat as I think of certain people while listening to this song. It's musically beautiful, but it's just as emotionally beautiful.
Patrick Leigh I be had that same thought about having it played at my funeral also. And for all the same reasons. It is a last good bye, I want family and friends to remember me with smiles and laughter, the good memories of my and their lives. I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought of that.
Immediately when I heard this song that's how I felt about it too. I want to play it for my husband at his funeral and then I'd like to have it played at mine. I just think it's the perfect way to end your adventure with the people in your life you know you're going on and heading for home. As one who's never looked at this planet as home but as a place to grow and mature to become greater than I was a better being hopefully having gained the knowledge of mortality and how sacred life is. It's not just science. One might be able to answer everything with science but it really doesn't all get answered. Take it from someone who died when she was 23 and I'm not kidding , I really did especially with scary is when you ask the question why didn't you answer me when I banged on the rails for help and the nurses look at you and say there was no brain activity you were a flat line you shouldn't be here you are given a second chance we can show it to you. Your doctor who saved you in the ER thinking it wasn't going to last because you'd had four coronaries and every time he thought he got you stabilized you crashed again wrote off his $33,000 copay because he said you shouldn't be alive. your physician is shocked when you walked out of the hospital 30 days later even though you'd had a stroke and he had severe injuries to your throat,, cognitive skills etcetera but you made it and the injuries weren't as bad as they should have been. Your parents have been told that if you did survive it was just a vegetative state there was no human in there because it was a flat white all the way around the only reason the heart was pumping is there was oxygen getting to it from the ventilator and they thought there must be some electricity coming out of the brain stem but they weren't even getting much of that so when my parents came in and saw me and realized there was no response that I did not respond to any stimuli physical testing nothing and they asked to have the machine turned off they honestly thought it was that last farewell instead the nurse saw something a flutter a movement they still don't know what she did I just saw something and that's when she dropped the rail and started pounding on my chest she just couldn't see a 23 year old woman die because the doctor prescribed the wrong medication. I didn't. In the end somehow I made it but I also found out we don't disappear or become nothing when we die. we go home.
Humans have been around for thousands of years and just us few are lucky enough to be born in the time where not only are the lotr and hobbit books are out but these absolutely incredible films as well don’t be sad it’s over just be glad it happened
Wow he sang for 9 hours! I appreciate all the care they put into this song, and I love Billy's beautiful voice. Farewell to one of the greatest series of films ever: Lord of the Rings
"...Nearly 9 hours and 430 takes..."!! Holy moly. That in and of itself is dedication alone people. I thank them for all that effort they had to put in. Truly.
Anyone who ever asked me what my favorite Trilogy/movie, is always LOTR. Had such an impact in my life and especially when I was younger. One of the most cherishable memories and experiences I've ever had. Nothing can really compare to it and I hope someday I can share this wonderful world of Middle Earth to my children in the future. To experience them imagining Elves or Dwarves were real, the sword fighting.. just brings tears to my eyes. To have a reflection of myself in my future kids is just wonderful.
I wont say "dont cry", for not all tears are of evil. But in all honesty mate: Dont cry that its over. Be happy that it happend. Personally Im happy that this is the end because it was a good one. Not everything gets better if you just keep going on and on and on. I have some paticular franchieses in mind that devolved into the beating of a dead horse. Dont forget your annual reruns and apprechiate the great time we had and still have in Middleearth. Take care and have a good one!
@@baboom007 I hope not!!!! There is no way in hell that there can be a reboot.......it would be a total disaster and ruin the image of the movies completely
I CANNOT listen to this song without crying. I will always love Middle Earth and ALL the Companies and Fellowships that Tolkien (and Jackson) established in these stories!!!!
The Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit are in my mind the most amazing, beautiful, films I have ever watched in my entire life time. They invited you in giving a warm, cosy, safe feeling from the first scene and left you happy, but also so very sad, aching for loss and feeling like there's an empty space that can't be filled after the final end scene of the last film had finished. The cast, crew, music everything were so professional, they worked so hard to bring something amazing to life , you felt like you were there and part of it and now I'm getting all emotional watching this video.... trying not to cry.....oh here it comes😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Billy was the best choice. When I heard the song at the end of the movie I was like this sounds similar!! Then I saw his name and I wanted to cry. Felt like Peter and everyone cares about the fans and how much we value the LOTR trilogy and the cast. Bringing in so many tiny similarities into The Hobbit and then this song connecting the trilogies is just so precious :')
NurderBvB EchteLiebe I remember being in middle school... I never heard of.lord.of the rings before... my uncle wad a HUGE book reader and he took my mom to see it... it was OVER!! that women pulled me out of school 12 different times through the year so we could goto the movies and see fellowship.... 12 TIMES!!!! she got obsessed and started reading the books... it.got.worse every year when the new one came out.. she took my 22 year old brother to see it... he FLIPPED at the end when she told him it was another year to continue and 2 years for the ending one lol... my brother died before the hobbit got made... but he would have loved it
@@alliebagz4936 I was sorry to read of the death of your brother, and like you, I bet he would have loved it too. My baby brother died before any of the movies were made, but he loved being read to, and he would have loved the movies too.
@@franceslambert8070 thank you! and I am so sorry to hear that!! I look at it this way... my brother died at the age of 29 in a car accident.. I was 19 at the time.. so I look back and I am so glad he at least got to see the last one before he died!! he died in 2007 so the worst part was he heard they got permission to make the hobbit and was so excited.. but he was DEVASTATED when he heard Peter Jackson wasnt going to direct.. he died before Peter took over and I always wonder what he would have said if he had known how the outcome would have been! my brother was so funny!! his humor was exactly like will Smith in fresh prince... like the exact same humor and mannerisms ... even though he was white you would literally think he was a twin lol I am so sorry about your younger brother!! I know how hard it is and its not easy to get over.. his death nearly took my life away so I know how it can be when you are close to your siblings!!
to be fair, billy was the oldest of the 4 hobbits. he turned 31 just before shooting started. but he has that babyface look that makes sean astin and dominic monaghan look older.
I can never listen to this song and not cry. It's just like, my childhood and teenagehood are letting me continue without them and waving me goodbye and IT FUCKING HURTS.
The Last Goodbye. This song brings back so many memories, all involving my dear Nanay (Filipino, 'mother'). I resigned from my job and went home to my parents' house planning to care for my bedridden mother who was very ill. Due to covid, I had to quarantine myself first. With limited things to do, I rewatched all six LOTR films chronologically. Was on 3rd night of quarantine - and almost done with The Return of the King - when someone knocked on my door. My sister. Our beloved mother had just died in her sleep. This song simply breaks my heart!😭
It seemed like such a simple song. Pure. But really it was a goodbye from Middle Earth to everyone. And it rings of all the farewells we must say. Billy Boyd sings it so beautifully. Seeing how many people and how much work went into the song is an eye opener.
I really loved this song since the first time I head it. It got the pure scent from Tolkien books: lovely, bittersweet amazing stories. Billy's voice makes me love the song, the books, the characters even more making me remember that regardless the ordeal, there is always hope and good in the world. .
When one seeks perfection and will settle for nothing less so comes together the amazing collection of artists and collaborators of The Hobbit and LOTR - love reliving every minute of it 20 years on. Thank You Peter and Fran especially. Mellon
Annie Lennox's song is totally amazing...I loved it from the first instant I heard it...but this song with Billy's voice....I'm sorry, Annie. I still love you and your songs and your voice, but as for the songs from these movies...THIS song is the one I think of when I think of the music from the movies. Billy Boyd. Perfect as Pippin. Perfect for this song. Perfect.
While I liked ALL the music used in the 6 movies, Billy Boyds music and singing I really LOVED. When it started playing, even tho I had a few tears over Thoren, Filly, and Killys deaths, I totally lost control over the waterworks. I wish PJ would re-release all 6 in "DIRECTORS CUT" and add "LAST FAREWELL" at the end of "RETURN of THE KING" too.
I agree with all of that except the part about Return of the King. Into the West with Annie Lennox was amazing and finished up Frodo's Story. Just like how this song finished up The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings as a series and everyone that was apart of it.
I would like to see re-release of all six movies in extended cuts but with one change. With all respect to Ian Holm and his amazing performance as Bilbo I would like to see the scenes with young Bilbo used from Hobbit at the beginning of the Fellowship.
After watching the lord of the rings and the hobbit, i just feel that i left part of me with them i don't know what is it but I miss them and i miss middle earth.
When I came out of the theater after Fellowship of the Ring I was laughing and crying and jumping up and down. I didn't think it would be possible to do Tolkien justice but you DID it! I will always love you, many thanks to one and all!.
Actually in the books he recognised it was Ori's handwriting. He didn't recognize the body though, because the book was just lying around, and not clutched in the hands of the corpse.
Only 3 dislikes (26/9/18) obviously from Tom, Bert and William- THE TROLLS! Thank goodness they are just lumps of stone now, thanks to the power of daylight and Gandalf.
that song makes me cry every time.......even watching how they did it I started to well up in tears......can't help it, it was a good bye to Thorin, Kili, Fili and The Hobbit........ :'(
Would be sweeet if i sit in a bar and billy boyd just walks in sings this song and leaves again. Just for the goosebums i get from this song. Ooh i can see the faces of all the people in there stunned from beauty.
did anyone else think the Misty Mountain song had undertones of Billys song? like if you hum "home is behind, the world ahead" and then hum "Far over the misty mountains cold" its a very similar tune XD
The part that is the most similar to "Home is behind, the *world* ahead" is when the song goes "The pines were roaring *on* the height ". The emphasis on the word world in the first song and on in the second song definitely provide undertones pointing to a similar composition.
No sé Inglés , y no entiendo nada de lo qué dicen pero me emocionó mucho ver que con la película THE HOBBIT se a formado un equipo de trabajo hermoso y me doy cuenta de esté tema qué tremendamente emocionante , gracias a está gran película qué emociona hasta las lágrimas Gracias 😥👍🇦🇷
I didn't know that Billy Boyd played Pippin until I watch this video. Love it. love the music. and Billy Boyd.. In the end of the Hobbit it search for the music and download it..
