It then transitions into an epic variant to the Khazad Dum theme during Gandalf the Grey's last stand with the Balrog. It starts out with a regal tone with a hint of "Gollum's Song" added in. "Foundations of Stone" plays at the very beginning of The Two Towers.Shore managed to put one of his most tear-inducing, spine-tinglingly beautiful moments about 23 minutes into the Fellowship of the Ring end credits.Makes for a memorable conclusion to Fellowship of the Ring, and will keep many audiences in their seats while the end credits roll. Another one by Enya, " May It Be " - which was nominated for an Oscar.It then ends with a sad choir when Gandalf falls to the Balrog. The chants combined with the exciting music create an epic song. Apparently a bunch of Maori rugby players chanting in Khuzdul (Dwarvish) sounds just like the Choirs of Hell. It starts with a grand fanfare of the fellowship, and then there's the ominous, pants-wetting build-up to the Balrog's first appearance. "The Bridge of Khazad Dum" is an amazing track.Simultaneously triumphant and desperately sad, what with the glory of the place being long gone. The fanfare that plays as Gandalf reveals the halls of Khazad-dûm.Never before has a group of people walking past a rock been so epic! Short as it is, The Ring Goes South is an awesome piece that plays as the Fellowship leaves Rivendell and culminates in literal fanfare accompanying a shot of the Fellowship as they come up over a hill one-by-one.

One of the most ethereal songs ever written? Possibly. If you weren't sucked into Middle-Earth before this came on, you are now.

That little melody is heartwarming in and of itself. (Shreds of shadow Torn from life Borne aloft By fell winds. Ristais dúath Nerchennin o chuil Coll am na waewath goeyl Tellin i Neder Gurth renia Meditha han phan Meditha ardhon Now we come, the Nine, Lords of Eternal Life) Nebabitham Maganane Netabdam daurad Nepam ned abarat-aglar ido Nidir nenakham Bari 'n Katharad Even more awesome and terrifying when hearing the lyrics and reading their translation:

The choirs used within the piece makes it feel more terrifying yet badass. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring The Towers of the Teeth, a rumbling dramatic choral piece that accompanies the march on the Black Gate." The Bearer of the Ring, the Wearer of the Ring " a chorus piece about the power and lure of the Ring increasing as the Ring approaches the Sammath Naur.Goblins, it seems, inherited their ancestors' natural singing voice. The Goblin songs from the Rankin/Bass animated films - every.Most people tend to dismiss the music of this adaptation due to a particular ridiculous music number sung by the Orcs to a disco beat, but the film has a wonderful portrayal of the ballad Roads Go Ever, Ever On, which sets the mood for the film wonderfully.(However, Rosenman also used several movements for Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, which makes it Hilarious in Hindsight for Star Trek fans.) It's generally agreed that Leonard Rosenman's score is the best thing about the film, and stands up to any iteration that followed.In fact, some fans have spliced this song with the escape scene in the live-action film! "Heave-ho, Splash-splum! Rolling down a hole!" The song played when Bilbo helps the dwarves escape the wood-elves the barrels.Without a doubt one of the best pieces of music in the animated adaptation of The Hobbit. The film's rendition of " Under the mountain dark and tall " (itself a later variation of " Far over the misty mountains cold ") is excellent.What Funny Little Things truly captures the joy Goblins take in torturing people as they chase the Company up a tree and start a fire.Down, Down, to Goblin Town is a strangely upbeat and peppy, yet at the same time intimidating song sung by the Goblins right before the Dwarves are captured.But it's the original song, "The Greatest Adventure", that acts as an anthem for the theme of the story and Bilbo's own suppressed desire for adventure. Overall, the feature does an impressive job of making actual songs from the ones used in the book.
