I'm sure J.R.R. would've been horrified at the result of modern convenience.

The lead in the intro, solo & outro sounds good, and is well developed but doesn't seem to quite sit...maybe too loud, maybe in need of a common reverb - I'm not sure.

My ears twitched at the pronunciation of "Lorien"...it shouldn't have stood out but seems "foreign" given the version my mind settled with in the mid 70s.
"...we all glide..." had me think of "...we all float down here..." silly of my mind but that's where it went.

I listened rather than watched...I'm still trying to get my head around the staggered semi-morphing and inclination to anime style images that current A.I. videos seems to build from.


Thanks Ray . Glad you liked the song.

The hand percussion gave the song a bit of a folk feel, but the guitar and sparse instrumentation kept it from sounding like a traditional arrangement. Interesting.

As Scott said, the song takes you on a small journey. Cool. smile


Thanks David. Our songs seem to take different paths through the genres and cultures. Really glad you liked the song.

What a wonderful song, Scott & Robert. I'm not very familiar with Tokien & Froddo and all that, but I get a lot from your storytelling. Loved the ride. Excellent intrumentation (especially that magical guitar) really makes this an engaging song.


Thanks Marty for the awesome comments. Robert is a master story teller. He paints very unique images with his lyrics. Really love to see the lyrics come alive in the videos he is creating. Everyone he produces blows me away. This is a very cool technology.
