@IannnSimmons i dont know what that is suppose to mean ???....but tolkien would either laugh or cring at blind guardian ...i love tolkien...but this ????....ugh...painful
I'm sure Feanor kicked himself after forging the Silmarillion. Not ONLY that, but he made the Palantiri, too. He just handed powerful artifacts over to the enemies of Middle Earth! Jeez.
@Falor5151 YESSS! i really respect this comment because its so true unsweyed by morigoth yet powerful in heart....Faenor is metal and he creates the light of the rock
@MArtthcanadian I think it's fairly clear that his older two sons, Maglor and Maedhros were pretty hardcore. They'd make Gil-Galad look like a lost puppy. ;)
I'm not sure if I should feel bad for Feanor or not...especially after killing a lot of the Teleri and then leaving Fingolfin behind to go through the frozen wastes on foot...
Immaginate di possedere il tesoro più grande del mondo, e che ve lo rubino, e che lo stesso ladro uccida vostro padre, immaginate di odiarlo con tutto voi stesso e che un indovino che non sbaglia mai vi dica che da quell'odio scaturiranno sciagure e dolore per tutta la vostra stirpe per sempre. Ditemi: quanto poco amereste questo mondo?
@WenGlen2 Best _album_ created? No, Nightfall in Middle Earth is the pinnacle of achievement across all spheres of human endeavor. The Apollo program engineers and the Giza pyramid builders had to bow to the ultimate demonstration of supreme mastery.
Well, I have to admit that Fingolfin was the best elf ever lived... He followed his brother, although they didn't have the best relationship. He didn't return to Arda when Feanor burned the ships but lead his people through the ice in order to reach where Feanor was and he pushed Morgoth back to Angband. Finally, he challenged Morgoth alone and he managed to injure a god seven times before he died...
@eimaiokalyteros well Fingolfin was incredible, but Feanor was the best craftsman ever, the best "politic" that existed in tolkien's universe and the most powerfull Noldor ever, for sure he would have defeated Melkor in a 1vs1, Melkor himself feared and hated Feanor. And his determination was incomparable. And after the Dagor Dagorath it will be thanks to him that the light will return.
If Feanor, Fingolfin and the rest were in the Lord of the Rings, Sauron would be so screwed ... but as it is, they had to leave the fate of the world to four hairy-footed midget peoples. Errr .... yeah xD
@jouzinka No, never. There's no comparison between a Green Elf and a Noldor. The Noldor are pretty much the toughest. After all, they're the kinslayers AND they went up against Morgoth. I was just saying, Legolas was probably at least slightly tougher in the books than the movies.
@faeriemama2007 I agree that Legolas of the books was different. Funny how two people can have different viewpoints of the same thing, though. =:) I see the whole madness about the quest for the Silmarils as a legacy of one man who mastered propaganda and psychology, who could get people on his side and who had a bit of 'luck' when the time came. Imagine Fingon and Fingolfin arriving in time to Alqualondë to witness the scene with the ships. No Kinslaying. More likely they'd kill Fëanor. =:)
omg when I made the comment about Feanor being in fact not rly a gr8 warrior, but a gr8 craftsman, wouldnt imagine it would bring up so many replies / comments stating the same xD
I look at Legolas , and then I look at Feanor , the Noldor were really bad-asses in comparison to later elves , can you imagine Feanor , Fingolfin and Turgon going against Sauron , he would shit his metal pants :)))))))))
@Closetscholar Yea Ecthelion , after Feanor and Finrod my favorite elf . And when you in that mixture add Beren insted of Aragorn , Lort would end up a very short book :))))
@Lazovic87 The question is, are you picturing Legolas as JRR Tolkien intended or as Orlando Bloom portrayed him? Because something tells me those are two very different depictions of Legolas.
@faeriemama2007 I think that the only Elf that appeared in the movies and followed what Tolkien pictured was Haldir. By the time we meet Elrond, he's faded. I'm thinking whether Legolas and the Mirkwood Elves had something in common with the Green Elves - they WERE different. And Celeborn wedded Galadriel, who was very exceptional, so I suppose she could hardly marry the usual run of an Elf. =:( I'm having a hard time putting a "=" between Legolas and Fingolfin, no matter how hard I try. =:(((
@faeriemama2007 Actually I was thinking about all the later elves , Elrond , Legolas and others , when you compare them to Noldor such as Feanor , Turgon or even Galadriela(she scares me even in book:)) ) you see how the elves have degraded , i mean Feanor and the others went after Morgoth , the most powerful being i Arda , this must count as something :)))
@Lazovic87 ... I think you are comparing incomparable. Plus I think you're forgetting The Last Alliance. They already *did* raise their arms against Sauron. The Siege of Barad-dûr lasted for 7 years, countless lives were lost... and Isildur kept the Ring. Now if I were Elrond, having had lost my wife because of that particular mishap and knowing I would soon sail to Valinor to be reunited with her, I don't think I'd be oh-so-keen to get out there and have my bones broken. =:)))
@jouzinka Yea but who lead the Last Alliance , Gil-Galad High King of Noldor , if it wasn't for him it wouldn't even exist . I you have to give it to Feanor , it wasn't easy fighting a pack of Balrogs and getting killed just because the Gothmog showed up :)))))))) And it didn't stop Fingolfin to ride alone to the gates of Angband to fight Morgot even when he knew he couldn't be victorious :))))))
@Lazovic87 Yeah, on another note, who was supposed to lead the Alliance if not the highest King of them all? The hiearchy works here - I'm sure Gil-Galad would have the head of anyone who'd try to go over his head on a platter.
@retrothefox In a way I don't think so. All the high kings dead = no reign over Gondor or Arnor for that matter. It would only be a matter of time before someone would want it and wage another war for the land, even if it were the clans between one another. Who knows how long would peace stay in M-E. It could be become even more costly to destroy the Ring with Isildur at that particular point in history.
@Lazovic87 well the noldor were of the high kindred and had seen the light of the two trees. unlike sundered elves of middle earth like the grey and wood elves like Legolas. Aslso the noldor in paticular were known for having the greatist knoledge and were the greatist craftsmen coming close to riviling the dwarves.
''In that war, Sauron served as Morgoth's chief lieutenant, surpassing all others in rank, such as Gothmog, the Lord of Balrogs. Known as Gorthaur the Cruel, Sauron was at that time a master of illusions and shapeshifting; werewolves and vampires were his servants, chief among them Draugluin, Father of Werewolves, and his vampire herald Thuringwethil.''
@Lazovic87 technically, didn't they go against sauron? sauron was melkor's underling; his chief lieutenant;

@Yarwer Yea but that wasn't my point . My point was to make a difference between Noldors and later elves , and the only one who went directly against Sauron in those days was Finrod :))
@Lazovic87 Eh, not really. Only Fingolfin would've had a fighting chance. I can't remember Turgon, but Feanor has an entire history of horrible judgement. Sauron would've simply surrendered, then pulled a Numenor.
@LordMortanius Except that Feanor had no mercy for servants of Morgoth. Sauron would not have been able to satiate his rage, he would've destroyed Sauron mockingly.
@RaphaelZephyr Still kinda proves the point, though. If Sauron's boss was afraid of just one of those guys (and suffered crippling injuries to boot) there's no way Sauron could stand before all three and live.
Though Fingolfin is my favorite among all the Elves, I've always liked Fëanor. For he did a lot of mistakes, he misused his "fire", that's true, but he had a complex and conflicting personality: I find that interesting, and sometimes maybe attracting.
No your all wrong choosing the mightiest elf!! To me it's obvious that Luthien really was the mightiest elf: She stunned Morgoth and all his army by singing, stunned Carcharoth at the gates of Thangorodrim etc..
Feanor was badass, the Valar preferred to stay at their land and leave the rest to rot, not to mention their authoritarian ways. They couldn't properly protect their own creations and children and yet they felt offended by an extremist that wanted to see the back of the bad guy... I believe Silmarillion is full of this injustice. The Valar said "NOOO no humans in our land", but instead of helping them deal with the enemy they left them to rot in the east.
Yes feanor was a proud murderer, but he still deserve all our respect, he was brave and never gave up or took his eyes from his objective, how many of us can say that plus he made the silmarils and this is something to be proud of
@alahadakovic " All what he had done is start hundreds and hundreds of years ongoing war in wich tousands of elves and humans were killed" is not true. Morgoth started the war. As Eowyn said to the master of the Houses of Healing (to paraphrase, as I do not have the book in front of me) "Even those who don't own a sword may die by one". The same is true for war
@mikelandrich Indeed, but who is to say that Feanor wasn't playing right into Melkor's plans? Sure, killing the trees may have been just to spite his Valar brethren and their simpering Maiar servants, but he took the Silmarils for a reason; to provoke Feanor and his kin. Divide and conquer. Especially where relations of Elves and Men are concerned.
@TheKNH86 That's all too obvious. It's mentioned over and over that Melkor's lies still influenced Feanor even when he knew that Morgoth was the enemy. The whole point was that his lies were so strong they still had power even then. But I don't think he took the Silmarils just to divide the elves. He wanted those fuckers bad just out of wanting everything, especially something like they were.
@TheKNH86 You are wrong. Morgoth took the Silmarils to spite the other Valar, primarily Yavanna, and because he desired to deprive the world of all that was beautiful. Dividing Elves and Men? Where do you get that? First and foremost, the Eldar remaining in Valinor would be more beneficial to him than them returning to Middle Earth. Secondly, even Morgoth knew not when Men would awaken.
feanor was smart and relntless he did what he bealive was right and he didt on a beautifull way the most poetic of all heroes in middle earth , but lets dont forget fingolfin,...
@megadeathman101 feanor, morgroth,balrogs are part of the world tha J.R.R Tolkien created through his books "The Silmalirion", a book that talks about the creation of the world and the ages before the 3rd age that takes place the Lord of the Rings. Its like the bible. For example Feanor is an noldor elven king, morgroth is like the "Devil" and balrogs are his strongest servants
Feanor, fingolfin, turing they all have a lot in common but the most common thing is that they were all NOLDOR ELVES they all had the spirit of Noldor isnide them that led them to do all these things. Tolkien is a genius guys i would gladly exchange my life for a life in Arda even if i had to be a slave, i would have been a happy to serve one of the noldor kings.
@megadethman101 Feanor was the greatest of the elves in Tolkien's Silmarillion. The Balrogs were big firery critters who were among the baddest of bad in early middle earth. And Morgoth was THE baddest of the bad, worse than Sauron by a long shot.
@megadethman101 All they are characters of the book The Silmarillion of J.R.R. Tolkien, book where it based the album of Blind guardian "A nightfall in the middle-earth"
Feanor is cool, but I've gotta say my favorite is Fingolfin. He had enough balls to take Morgoth on in single combat. Even though he lost, engaging Morgoth gives you many man points.
definitely this is the best blind guardian's album !!!!! great band , great book and great character !!!! hail to Feanor and hail blind guardian !!!!!
IMO Feanor is overrated in this song. Yes, he was strong, and was my favouite character when I started reading the Silmarilion, but he starts to get ridiculous and does loads of arrogant and bad actions. He killed his elven brothers and then died ridiculously facing balrogs, when fingolfin faced morgoth itself.
Also, he wasn't even a super duder strong warrior, sorry to disapoint you all, but he was an excelent blacksmith, not a great warrior.´
@JRMR7 Yes that's it though. He wasn't a warrior, yet he gave the balrogs a run for their money and led an entire people to another land in the most fiercest conditions and Morgoth himslef feared this 'black-smith.' Feanor's spirit was so fiery that when he dies his own body couldn't take it any more and turned to ash. That's why he rocks. He was an underdog that made history and shaped the world of Tolkien single handedly.
@grobo11 I like Frodo too, but he became a bit mean and arrogant near the end. From the Silmarilion, my fav one is Turin. IMO the strongest guy in the saga when it comes to pwn ass =D and also that cursed stuff and the solo fight against the dragon sorta rock.
Fingolfin was a nice one, for fighting morgoth 1 vs 1
Finrod (or maybe Fingon, I have read the Silmarilion many years ago) for fighting the werewolf with his bare hands
@JRMR7 I thought one of the best characters was Turin also. Although he did commit incest accidently he still kicked ass. Although, his elf friend who he accidently killed was pretty cool aswell.
@JRMR7 this is true . But i still like Feanor but youre right Turin is even better and feanor still wasnt the greaist warrior evewn fingolfin was better i think.
My god... I think that the most impressive part is the lyrics but... no... can't say that, the entire song is damn good! I just like how these songs speak of the world I loved reading about!
@acco8675309 the story of yourself shows that a deadly punch in your fucking face proves that lowlifes and faggots should never reproduce. You fucking waste of skin

@Lazovic87 Eh, not really. Only Fingolfin would've had a fighting chance. I can't remember Turgon, but Feanor has an entire history of horrible judgement. Sauron would've simply surrendered, then pulled a Numenor.

@LordMortanius Except that Feanor had no mercy for servants of Morgoth. Sauron would not have been able to satiate his rage, he would've destroyed Sauron mockingly.

@RaphaelZephyr Still kinda proves the point, though. If Sauron's boss was afraid of just one of those guys (and suffered crippling injuries to boot) there's no way Sauron could stand before all three and live.

Though Fingolfin is my favorite among all the Elves, I've always liked Fëanor. For he did a lot of mistakes, he misused his "fire", that's true, but he had a complex and conflicting personality: I find that interesting, and sometimes maybe attracting.
AliceCobain1994 1 year ago 3
No your all wrong choosing the mightiest elf!! To me it's obvious that Luthien really was the mightiest elf: She stunned Morgoth and all his army by singing, stunned Carcharoth at the gates of Thangorodrim etc..

Feanor was badass, the Valar preferred to stay at their land and leave the rest to rot, not to mention their authoritarian ways. They couldn't properly protect their own creations and children and yet they felt offended by an extremist that wanted to see the back of the bad guy... I believe Silmarillion is full of this injustice. The Valar said "NOOO no humans in our land", but instead of helping them deal with the enemy they left them to rot in the east.

Yes feanor was a proud murderer, but he still deserve all our respect, he was brave and never gave up or took his eyes from his objective, how many of us can say that plus he made the silmarils and this is something to be proud of

@alahadakovic " All what he had done is start hundreds and hundreds of years ongoing war in wich tousands of elves and humans were killed" is not true. Morgoth started the war. As Eowyn said to the master of the Houses of Healing (to paraphrase, as I do not have the book in front of me) "Even those who don't own a sword may die by one". The same is true for war
mikelandrich 1 year ago 3
@mikelandrich Indeed, but who is to say that Feanor wasn't playing right into Melkor's plans? Sure, killing the trees may have been just to spite his Valar brethren and their simpering Maiar servants, but he took the Silmarils for a reason; to provoke Feanor and his kin. Divide and conquer. Especially where relations of Elves and Men are concerned.
TheKNH86 1 year ago
@TheKNH86 That's all too obvious. It's mentioned over and over that Melkor's lies still influenced Feanor even when he knew that Morgoth was the enemy. The whole point was that his lies were so strong they still had power even then. But I don't think he took the Silmarils just to divide the elves. He wanted those fuckers bad just out of wanting everything, especially something like they were.
Ryan2142 1 year ago
@TheKNH86 You are wrong. Morgoth took the Silmarils to spite the other Valar, primarily Yavanna, and because he desired to deprive the world of all that was beautiful. Dividing Elves and Men? Where do you get that? First and foremost, the Eldar remaining in Valinor would be more beneficial to him than them returning to Middle Earth. Secondly, even Morgoth knew not when Men would awaken.

@megadeathman101 feanor, morgroth,balrogs are part of the world tha J.R.R Tolkien created through his books "The Silmalirion", a book that talks about the creation of the world and the ages before the 3rd age that takes place the Lord of the Rings. Its like the bible. For example Feanor is an noldor elven king, morgroth is like the "Devil" and balrogs are his strongest servants
Zor0h 1 year ago
Feanor, fingolfin, turing they all have a lot in common but the most common thing is that they were all NOLDOR ELVES they all had the spirit of Noldor isnide them that led them to do all these things. Tolkien is a genius guys i would gladly exchange my life for a life in Arda even if i had to be a slave, i would have been a happy to serve one of the noldor kings.
Thank you Blind Guardian for this awsome song.

@megadethman101 Feanor was the greatest of the elves in Tolkien's Silmarillion. The Balrogs were big firery critters who were among the baddest of bad in early middle earth. And Morgoth was THE baddest of the bad, worse than Sauron by a long shot.

@TheJokinly Sauron was actually a servant of Morgoth, we can't imagine Morgoth's powers.

Which goes to show the might of the blood of Feanor, if one of his kin wounded him.

IMO Feanor is overrated in this song. Yes, he was strong, and was my favouite character when I started reading the Silmarilion, but he starts to get ridiculous and does loads of arrogant and bad actions. He killed his elven brothers and then died ridiculously facing balrogs, when fingolfin faced morgoth itself.
Also, he wasn't even a super duder strong warrior, sorry to disapoint you all, but he was an excelent blacksmith, not a great warrior.´

metaldo0d 1 year ago
@JRMR7 Yes that's it though. He wasn't a warrior, yet he gave the balrogs a run for their money and led an entire people to another land in the most fiercest conditions and Morgoth himslef feared this 'black-smith.' Feanor's spirit was so fiery that when he dies his own body couldn't take it any more and turned to ash. That's why he rocks. He was an underdog that made history and shaped the world of Tolkien single handedly.
grobo11 1 year ago
@grobo11 IMO feanör was strong, fierce, powerfull, but unwise.
Anyway, although I like many epic characters like Turin, Aragorn, etc, from all the LOTR saga, my favourite one is, without doubt: Sam Gamgee
For the way he was loyal to Frodo, the way he helped him, even sacrifising himself for him sometimes.
He showed his bravery battling the spider and he has a very strong heart
This may sound fag, but a true lotro fan knows what Im talking about
JRMR7 1 year ago 2
@JRMR7 Yeah, I can understand where you're comming from, how Sam and Frodo were more like comrades rather than companions.
grobo11 1 year ago
@grobo11 I like Frodo too, but he became a bit mean and arrogant near the end. From the Silmarilion, my fav one is Turin. IMO the strongest guy in the saga when it comes to pwn ass =D and also that cursed stuff and the solo fight against the dragon sorta rock.
Fingolfin was a nice one, for fighting morgoth 1 vs 1
Finrod (or maybe Fingon, I have read the Silmarilion many years ago) for fighting the werewolf with his bare hands
JRMR7 1 year ago
@JRMR7 I thought one of the best characters was Turin also. Although he did commit incest accidently he still kicked ass. Although, his elf friend who he accidently killed was pretty cool aswell.
