Oh man….absolutely beautiful…Minas Tirith gives us the Trailer Theme we all loved, and I don’t care what anyone says, Annie Lenox’s voice is simply gorgeous.
I began bawling at track 17 “The Return of the King”. It was mainly the hobbit “hymm” that got me started. I can’t wait until the 25th!! Wonder if the stores will open at midnight like they did for the TTT dvd…
I didn’t like Annie Lennox. I think the grey havens theme should be soft, like… In Dreams, from Fellowship. She’s just belting it out. Come to think of it they should’ve had the kid who did In Dreams to do Into the West.
But anyway, I LOVE the Gondor theme. There’s a really beautiful rendition of it near the end of the RotK trailer.
Can’t wait for all this new stuff… EE, Sundtrack, RotK, I’m surprised my head hasn’t exploded yet.
Yes! Track 17 was SOO sad! The “Hobbit Hymn” part was what really got me. Also LOVE “Minas Tirith”, “The Black Gate Opens”, “The Grey Havens”, “Twilight and Shadow”, “Andruil”, “Hope and Memory”, “Ride of the Rohirrim”, and all the rest! Except, I don’t like “Into the West” much. It should be deamy, like “May it Be”. Enya should have done it. One last thing – did anyone think that parts of “Shelob’s Lair” sounded like the music from “Signs”? Just curious. Anyhow, GREAT sountrack altogether!
I loved the samples. They were so great! too bad number five didn’t have Billy singing (for the sample I mean) I want to hear his voice… They are all so great, and I can not wait until it comes out! Both the soundtrack and the movie…
WOWEEEE! At all of the major parts I just sceamed! Ok, I admitted it. My father wouldn’t stop telling me to ‘be quiet!’ but you all know, they really don’t get it!!! So it comes out the 25th huh, well I’m there!!!!!
