Yay, this is finally done! 😀 This is my setting of The Lay of Nimrodel, which Legolas sings in The Fellowship of the Ring. This has always been my favorite Tolkien poem, and I think I first came up with the beginnings of this tune for it when I was about twelve. XD I did a rough version a while back, but now that I finally have my new mic I wanted to give it a go for real.
(Apologies for the background noise- unfortunately a lot of it is the stupid plastic pedal I have for this keyboard and the sound quality goes a bit wonky when I try to noise cancel it XD)
Not technically done for Sansûkh since I started way before I read it, but it still could be XP (while I work on more stuff that is for that)
Lyrics- JRR Tolkien

Please don’t use this particular setting without permission!
Everybody. Listen. To. This.
Avi this arrangement is jawdropping. The rolling piano perfectly captures the rivulets of Nimrodel, it’s sweet and melancholy without dragging, it’s so beautiful, it’s so so beautiful.
And YOUR VOICE, EXCUSE ME THO. How much spin and brightness in your voice, your vowels as clear as crystal, utterly spectacular tone and placement I AM SHOUTING NOW IT IS YOUR FAULT FOR BEING TOO AMAZING
*listens again and again and again* GDI that slow section *clutches face* *moans happily* AUGH

AVI IT IS SUPERB
