I played this song for my father at the end of his life...moments before he passed...I knew that he was sailing on to a lovelier place.....my son is playing this song while spreading his grandparent's ashes in Hawaii.
when the credits were rolling at the end of The Return of the King and this song was playing, I was so sad that it was all over. I can wait for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey this December.
Al escuchar esta cancion, entro en un mundo lleno de alegrias,tristezasa,emociones, alegrias, Cosas que gente no conprendería, Lloro mientras escribo esto, la saga se termino, Pero no mis ganas de despertarme cada mañana tratando de recordar este mundo. :,)
My very sincerest condolences, and if I may, a huge hug. The song is my strongest hope in all the world.. that we will all be together again when this life is over... and that we will go to a better place
@2975jessica Every time I read your comment it makes me cry, it's so sad.....and yet happy at the same time. I know you'll meet your husband again one day and he'll greet you at the pearly gates with open arms. You'll see him on the horizon, while the white gulls call. Now he is only across the sea, your ships will come carry you home to him one day. Don't ever let your hope fade, because the shadows ARE falling. You'll find your white shores. and you'll be there in your husband's arms.
This song brings peace to everybody who lost a loved one..and also makes you easier to accept the fact that you will also die one day..thank you Annie Lennox , thank you very much..:')
I cant even express my love for this film. The Return of the King is my favorite, it is just so amazing and beautiful, the emotions and stakes are so high, and I love how the story dosnt really end, its another journey for all of them.
I can't help shedding a tear every time I hear this song... It means so much for me, and it always will. While listening to it, I almost feel like I'm dying... a feeling so terrifying, yet so beautiful... If we all could just go into the west one day...
well... when i was little i always went to San Alfonso del mar, that place looks like minas tirith, and now when i remember all that times watching the movies on my car or with my lotr toys i really want to cry.....now im going to be a soccer player so if you see a guy who is celebrating with a gollum t shirt THATS ME :')
@homophie55 HIs works have many similar things with christianity, I'd agree. As much as most religions on our planet have similar themes of good & evil. If Tolkien's fantasy universe was so strongly based in christianity then how do you account for the presence of multiple gods, which is mentioned in the Silmarillion & other works. Tolkien was a very learned man. It JUST MAY be possible that he took his creative license in another direction than the faith he may have lived by.
@Baroshi Hey, but I have to make one correction. The "Gods of the West" as men called them, weren't actually gods but were Angels who had come to protect and cultivate the world from Morgoth (the fallen angel and "Satan" of the story). It makes it clear that there is one God. It also makes a divide that only God can create real, living and breathing sentient creatures.
@homophie55 I know the lord of the rings have any christian themes, but this is definitely not one of them. It is about the ships to Valinor, and the end of the lord of the rings.
Debating about how much Tolkien's faith influenced LotR is pointless, since it doesn't actually make any difference.
Analyzing this song in the same way is also pointless, since it doesn't change anything. This song was made partly in memory of Cameron Duncan, that's what we know, and it's the only thing that matters.
@homophie55 I think it is rather ethnocentric to claim lotr as having christian themes. It includes gods, beings with eternal life, mortals, and basic good vs. evil themes.
My dear friends, what "moves" u in your hearts when you hear this song it's, very simply, the Promise... the Promise from above that it's the base of Christian faith - the faith of Tolkien and of all his friends: "Don’t say,/ We have come now to the end./ White shores are calling./ You and I will meet again./And you’ll be here in my arms,/Just sleeping."
Follow that path, to anything it will lead you...
when i first heard this song when i first watched the film in the cinema, i was only about 8. one of my most vivid memories was sitting in the cinema even after everyone else had gone, and refusing to leave until this song had finished, and crying throughout this song
Possibly the only time in my life I stayed in the theater to watch the credits was to hear this song. :') The ending to the trilogy was one of the best endings to anything ever!
@ReyaitheShadowWolf I've watched the trilogy again last week. I've watched it countless times, it always makes mme weep like a child. This song in particular, it's enough to hear just a few notes and i'm off. It just makes me realise so much, and realise that i have a magical life to be introduced to the world of tolkien. His books will always be my no1.
I wanted to have this song when my mother died but was denied by my sisters. My daughter and I set off to drive to the funeral, crying while listening the beautiful music and perfect words.
@guidoroelandtguido I started yesterday when I finished ''The Two Towers'' and in an hour or so I'm going to watch ''The Fellowship of the Ring'' and then ''The Return of the King'' tonight :DDD
Gandalf - "End? No the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The gray rain-curtain of this world rolls back and all turns to silver glass. And then you see it..."
Pippin - "What Gandalf? See what?"
Gandalf - "White shores. And then beyond, A far green country under a swift sunrise..."
oh man. I am fighting a losing battle to hold back the tears. This song is so beautiful, and exquisitely transforms the spirit of the tale into lyric and melody.
I can listen to this song over and over again. Annie Lennox did a phenomenal job! All three of the Lord of the Ring movies are awesome. I have the extended editions and the regular versions of the movies and all I watch is the extended editions. Twelve hours of pure pleasure.
Lord of the Rings embodied many real life experiences and struggle. Struggle of men fighting and greed over the material world, and how friendship can help people pull through the endeavor that they pursue. Tolkein is a genius making a beautiful story of life in fiction.
I really think that music and art is the very highest essence of the human mind and creation.. man, I just dont have words.. Thank you so much; Annie lennox, Howard Shore, Peter Jackson and Tolkien.!
@hcpiano also cameron duncan, the beautiful teenage boy who was the inspiration for the song! he was an aspiring filmaker who befriended Fran and Pete and unfortunately died of cancer :(
I'd like to see you make a masterpiece like the LOTR Trilology. Jackson AND Tolkien made things you could only dream of making. So how about respecting others work instead of complaining about it?
I sing this song to my girlfriend and play it on my ipod when I watch her sleep. You know you met the right one when this song just makes moments like this perfect. I love her and can't live without her. She's everything I ever wanted. This song and her is the only combination that has made me cry in happiness. No amounts of I Love You can compare to how I feel.
Oh believe me i know, i read the books, and when haldir died, it pissed me off. And the shelob thing in the 3rd confused me. But in todays society, where most movies are completely warped from the books, a few flaws is okay to me. I mean, its already a 3 hour movie, so obviously content has to be cut. But in my opinion, the movies are still some of the best film adaptations of books i have ever seen.
It really makes me sad how some people think that Lord of The Rings is just a stupid war movie. The trilogy is easily one of the greatest movie trilogies ever made, and one of the few movies that, in my opinion, are actually better than the book. I remember hearing this song on the DVD when i was younger, and it actually made me cry. Still does. I cant wait for the Hobbit
@brigeboy95 Well thats just my opinion. Yours may be different, and i know the books have more content, like all books do. But For my personal taste, the books just moved a little too slow in areas and i never felt the emotion that i did while watching the movies.
@Redsunrise86 to be truthl its just because jacksons version does not make sense the wood elves where NOT at helms deep they where fighting at the northern front no way they could have got around mirkwoods blockade same goes for the dead army attacking minis tirith they only attacked at the port which the black ships where attacking aragorn job was to get that army because it could defeat the blockadeing ships. just the flaws i see in the movies
Gandalf - "End? No the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The gray rain-curtain of this world rolls back and all turns to silver glass. And then you see it..."
Pippin - "WHat Gandalf? See what?"
Gandalf - 'White shores. And then beyond, A far green country under a swift sunrise..."
This song's meaning explains that death musn't be feared but it is merely a gateway to white shores where you can walk in peace while listening to seagulls calling and waves rolling...
@cryptotom Dump her. If she doesn't well up at Theoden's speech right at the Golden Charge or Aragorn's speech before The Black Gate or when Theoden just breaks down before the tomb of his son, she's heartless!
@Gilgamesh417 I am a huge fan of LOTR but do you mean the speech in ROTK when Theoden starts speaking to the soldiers before the Battle of the Pelennor Fields?? 'Cause that speech was laughable xDD
I cry every time I listen to this song :D. Thanks so much for putting it up- and putting those images to it :D. As for copyright- I own (if memory serves ^^) all three movie soundtracks- so THERE RIAA :D
It would figure they would make hobbit movies when all the fans of those fictional works want them to make The Silmarillion and The Children of Húrin.
Will they make those or is it all hairy hobbit feet? So many people have such limited tastes.
I prefered the hobbit to the lotr trilogy as books, but whist saying that they both Beat just about every other book on the planet hands down, much like the films beat almost every other film ever made. Long live Tolkiens Legacy, And Long Live Peter Jackson for Transcribing so much beauty from book to film. I agree with my fellow tolkienists, Lotr With live For Ever
Goosebumps ok.... and I'm a man. NEVER get them either

Pippin - "I didn't think it would end this way.."
Gandalf - "End? No the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The gray rain-curtain of this world rolls back and all turns to silver glass. And then you see it..."
Pippin - "WHat Gandalf? See what?"
Gandalf - 'White shores. And then beyond, A far green country under a swift sunrise..."
Pippin - "That isn't so bad."
Gandalf - "No. No it isn't

This song's meaning explains that death musn't be feared but it is merely a gateway to white shores where you can walk in peace while listening to seagulls calling and waves rolling...

My girlfriend doesn't understand why I well up every time I hear this. She's not a fan of LotR so I don't think she ever will. Definitely her loss...

@cryptotom Dump her. If she doesn't well up at Theoden's speech right at the Golden Charge or Aragorn's speech before The Black Gate or when Theoden just breaks down before the tomb of his son, she's heartless!

@Gilgamesh417 I am a huge fan of LOTR but do you mean the speech in ROTK when Theoden starts speaking to the soldiers before the Battle of the Pelennor Fields?? 'Cause that speech was laughable xDD

This song is spectacular. The video was almost great, but they ignored Gimli. Apparently, he isn't pretty enough.

It would figure they would make hobbit movies when all the fans of those fictional works want them to make The Silmarillion and The Children of Húrin.
Will they make those or is it all hairy hobbit feet? So many people have such limited tastes.

God I cannot wait for the two Hobbit movies! 2012 and 2013 need to hurry up and get here! Those movies are going to be so badass...

I prefered the hobbit to the lotr trilogy as books, but whist saying that they both Beat just about every other book on the planet hands down, much like the films beat almost every other film ever made. Long live Tolkiens Legacy, And Long Live Peter Jackson for Transcribing so much beauty from book to film. I agree with my fellow tolkienists, Lotr With live For Ever
