Broadsword

[alnlemtor]

[corsaboy2011]

perfection



[dontreadthis32]

I play skyrim to this song

[lowlander333]

Holy mother

[doremodel]

Very well done editing. Part 1:10 to 1:21 is a gradual increase in volume and intensity of the piece. In music we call this a CRESCENDO. Besides the fact that TULL is AWESOME the way in which this was edited was perfect for effect. Cheers! thanks for sharing.

[scrotius2012]

@doremodel AYE!!!

[adlermedrado]

Jethro Tull's broadsword + LOTR = EPIC

[crazybastardist]

I drink the Mead from the chalice!!!!!

[goldberrysusan]

[Biggzywombat]

This should have been LOTR's theme song.

[scrotius2012]

@Biggzywombat AYE!!!

[edelweiss1001]

[jakethefiddle]

What can I say? Lord of the Rings and Jethro Tull!!!! AMAZING!

[Athena3560]

Awesome!



[ColonelSchafer]

YES

[mothshade]

Brilliant. Thank you.

I confess to wondering why scenes from Rohan weren't used to go with some of the lyrics. They would seem most appropriate.

[mothshade]

Brilliant. Thank you.

[BeatBay]

Wow thats great! Are the movie scenes all from lord of the rings?

[BadSideOfHeaven]

@BeatBay yup

[stashyjon]

amazing work on the editting

[zorchi]

Epic. I got shivers on my back.

[BruceLevitan]

A great coupling - well done!

[Grendel650]

This is good, very good! But standing atop Hengistbury Head, Dorset, England and thinking of this song, my only thought was. ''The Vikings Cometh!''

[jfdimarco]

Well done. Very well done.

[scandial]

fabulous work, such great editing, can't be beaten. Thank you

[PHUQALL1971]

COOL COOL!!

[Blitzenluft45]

I thought of this same thing when i first heard the song. I thought I was such a nerd!!! I'm just glad i'm not the only one who made the connection...

[bookworm1138]

hells yeah! i think i've just found myself a new band to love

[carlrothwell]

Bit of class. Well visioned.

[tsarevna212]

Still as magnificently brilliant combination of music & imagery as when I first fell in love with this vid!!!

[wesmatron]

THIS IS EPIC

[Pattonfrodo]

If I'm not mistaken the album cover for this has some of the Elvish charters that Tolkien made up...so this is a perfect match of video and music! :)

[tatadecarli]

[EMcKinney]

This is great, and its sad to see the hit count.

But us here understand and we thank you!

[tjrxk7]

No other word but AWESOME!

[JamesHigginsMusic]

My son loves this video, great mixture of Tull and LOTR!

[Wandelf1]

The book says the black horses of the Nine Black Riders were from Rohan -- sometimes as tribute to keep Sauron away, sometimes just stolen. King Theoden should have been glad to help Gandalf. But he was under Saruman's influence. In the final analysis, Shadowfax didn't BELONG to anyone. The mearas, the intelligent horses, chose their riders, not the other way around.

[Wandelf1]

Rawdealist, I'm reading LOTR for the second time, and Peter Jackson took many liberties. It would take five movies to include everything Tolkein described, but there are changes in who speaks a line of dialogue that, I think, change the heart of the scene. Yes, many of the Men and those of other races could not see Gandalf's grand purpose and quibbled over local matters. There's a great lesson there.

[McNinja6]

Good job man, awesome stuff.

[rawdealist]

THE MOVIE MENTIONED NOTHING OF SHADOWFAX THE KING OF HORSES AND THE GRUDGE HELD BE THE ROWEN KING TOWARDS GANDOLF FOR RIDING AWAY WITH HIM IN A PAST EVENT....

[TullVidz]

Pretty much how I envisiged this album would look if a film was made of it .. outstanding :)

[damacpac]

Brilliant fushion....xx

[Pattonfrodo]

Cool idea nicely done! 

[Mattiasgbg]

Amazing. Thanks...

[Wandelf1]

Masterful editing! You should win an award. A PROFESSIONAL award. Guaranteed chills every time. Hi, LibertyTreeradio. Non illegitimi carborundum. You are not alone. Far from it. "How does one face such reckless evil?" "Ride out and meet it!"

[metald71]

Awesome song, Awesome movies and awesome video. Great job.

[tjrxk7]

Fantastic video!.....Interesting to note that Ian Anderson dedicated the 'Broadsword' album to JRR Tolkien whom he is a big fan of with lotr.

[CaptorOfSin23]

I have to admit that this video made me shudder....lotr is fucking epic and Tull is fucking epic so this vid is one of the most epic of all time.........Great job dude with all the timing and the staff! its like this great song was written for this story.......it was all there the black sails, the broadsword, the legendary river all!!!!!!thanks dude

[caseypons]

I had no idea there was an original video to accompany this very strong Tull number.

This has been a favorite of mine and now I have a video...other than the one in my mind, which I could use a change after all the years!!! LOL!

Thanks for posting this quality production!!!!

[Riverfox1]

Magickal...beyond talented!

[Helix2112]

Your timing is absolutely perfect!!!

[Helix2112]

Incredible job!!! Fantastic! Easily coul've used this for movie soundtrack, but, now, it doesn't matter because YOU DID!!! THANKS!!!

[Libertytreeradio]

Bring me my broadsword to defend my Liberty. Libertytreeradio for more cool videos that will help you to prepare for what is coming. Ne Copula Nobiscum!

MGK/GDW!

[jrlaker]

Great Job!

[HolyMotherofGrid]

Fantastic video!!!! Bravo and thank you very much.

[PennnSmith]

Let the war begin.

[scandial]

THE BEST video on U-tube, fabulous job, much enjoyed.

[countrysportsuk]

Pretty clever choice of combination. Well Done.

[linky27]

real history is better than any fantasy for me.. Id rather see vikings vs anglo saxons

[GrandMasterSuperPhD]

For real man....good video.....I vibed it all the way through .....i feel I would not have changed a thing.

I keep coming back to see it.......Great video you did great!!!!

[themusicman624]

amazing. brilliant mix

[raydenthetullgod]

This is beyond tight. It's been a while since I've watched it. Now that it's Autumn, I'm definitely in a Tull mood nowadays.

[TheWildMagic]

I... cannot describe how happy this just made me.

You have fused two of my all-time favorite things.

Thank you... so much.

[willicat441]

@TheWildMagic 

[willicat441]

@TheWildMagic 

[willicat441]

@TheWildMagic

Thank you to all the Tull fans and sons who have come to appreciate the otherwordliness that is Ian Andersen.

I have dreamed of adding video's to Tull's music, and it's so inspiring to see other people get "it". Beautiful symbiosis of music and art. I hope for many more interpretation's of Ian's songs in the future, as his arrangments didn't always sell the song [especially in the USA]....Wow

[dtull7]

Absolutely wonderful!!

[MapleLozer]

what movie is this?

[LuraanDivTrasci]

LOTR = lord of the rings bro

[MapleLozer]

oh thanks

[JohnQuesada]

Epic.

[dictionar1]

who gives a rats ass...hyphenated.

[AbyssalSpectar1]

They say that Robin Hood himself gathered his merry men to form this very band...

[thomasnonsense]

Very well put together. The way the tempering of the sword matched the beat made it look like a real music clip.

If you did this video yourself, excellent work!

[dictionar1]

wholelotta, we steer from those like you. we gravitate away from the seahags.

[MerchManDan]

Name-calling is really uncalled-for.

[Dacfu]

Hot DAMN this video is epic. Very good job choosing the clips to fit the song.

[WholeLottaGone]

Where can men like that be found NOW?

Love it!

[scandial]

Don't know but if you find them, call me immediately please

[CSXer]

Lots of places! It's just that pussy cops shoot them with guns and tazzers since they're afraid of an honerable, fair fight...

[MerchManDan]

Wow, CSXer. Shut up.

[Psychonaut316]

Where now the horse and the rider?Where is the horn that was blowing?

Where is the helm and the hauberk,

And the bright hair flowing? ...

They have passed like rain on the mountain, like a wind in the meadow;

The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into Shadow.

[farliesbirthday]

The Wanderer or the Seafarer, or Tolkein recalling his Anglo-Saxon epics?

[Psychonaut316]

"Two Towers", The Battle of Helm's Deep, Theoden recounting the days of old, and thinking on how times have changed.

Also, me recounting on the same.

[peacemtn]

Neat

[thedukeofantioch]

that is so awsome.

[Jacko0087]

The lotr themes are SO much better than this sh*t

[Lengsel7]

Very nice video. Thank you. They REALLY should've hired Ian Anderson to be involved in the scoring of LOTR....if not all, at least some of it.

[WholeLottaGone]

Agree!

[milllosh]

I think Rare And Precious Chain would fit well too

[scamutz181]

Jethro Tull and LOTR - that's like Peanut Butter and Chocolate man! Savage!

[MerchManDan]

Oh man, this gave me chills. Excellent work, dude. Truly.

[gibson0steve]

great song. I saw tull last year and is was amazing. excelent editing on the video 5 stars for sure

[WINDYCLAIR]

Very well orchestrated, and presented. If there are You tube awards YOU deserve one. Thank you for shairing your talent on screen.

[t1ratlooker]

Wonderful job.. amazing.. truly

[MrNCN]

A beautiful job of editing as well as matching music to image - Nice work...

[someuser91]

[frododarg]

[sheepshead77]

[AIK1891BA]

[antyrr1an]

wulfhermit nails it as far as i'm concerned, the song, movies and editing of the vid are all top drawer

[Lanceole85]

This is art.

I really like this one.

[SaliteSullArca]

...Bravo!!!:)

[Khan004]

i always thought of the book "Kidnapped" when I heard this song, but this is really well done.

[meilirmab]

Just needed a little glimpse of Kate Bush to make it perfect!!

Seriously though, superb!

[TheTarrMan]

lord of the rings? lol

[Ziggsten]

have to say . a perfect song on a perfect movie

your editing to make it match .. i take my hat off for ya :)

[teodelux]

montaggio 10 e lode!!!

[LadyCasa]

Totaly epic, very well edited. Gives me goose bumps every time I watch it!

[wulfhermit]

Awsome! masterfully matched and edited. A perfect tribute to a great song, an incredibly talented band and a great movie!

[shortstoppro18]

great

[chaospoet]

Nice tribute. Very well put together. :-) And great this is so metal using the most Metal band ever the mightly Jethrul Tull. Hehe, lame joke that only anyone old like me will get.

[scandial]

terrible joke, folk

[Dacfu]

Hey now. The flute IS a heavy metal instrument.

[loquatiousbadger]

Have you heard "The Islander" by Nightwish? If they haven't based it on Jethro Tull I've no idea how they came up with it! Both are good bands.

[vikinsweresteriotypd]

the song and video match PERFECTLY!

[sidensvans54]

Itss preciouss i wants it. yess Great Video..

love It!!

Well done....Gandalf....

[AbyssalSpectar1]

this fits in incredibly well.

[terresti]

No, one of the others is "Life's a Long Song" and the other was likely going to be "Songs From the Wood"... but I might replace the latter with Joe Satriani's "Summer Song."
