@ErewinOfImladris I'm grateful for Firiel's amazing video! She added an additional element of Elven magic to the cover :) I love the Elvish language too...very pretty sounding for sure! Thank you so much ^^

[RedyyChuu]

This sounds like a legit piece from the soundtrack! It really does, I love this song and your rendition sounds so much more purer and serene. Splendid job with all the harmonies and the arrangement!!

[MsAlainn]

Gorgeous! Elvish sounds a lot like Irish (gaelic). You should do a cover of an Irish song. It'd be gorgeous in your voice!

[acidpopsicle]

@MsAlainn Thank you!! I would LOVE to cover an Irish Gaelic song one day :) When I do, you'll be the first to know :)

I ADORE YOU <3 <3 *snuggles* :D

[acidpopsicle]

@EnchantedTower aw Melly! Thank you :) Harmonies are a lot of fun to do, but it took a lot of warm-ups to get my pitch right. I'm so happy you liked it!

[Dollyblossoms]

PURE MAGIC!! Im stunned Vee ^^ the harmonies are just out of this world.
