I remember in my middle school chorus, we sang this song. It's now at least 5 years later and this song still makes me feel the same emotions. Still love it.
why did i think annie lennox was a man this whole time? and then i watched this video. i have to admit, i didn't imagine to look much different then thee annie lennox i am now looking at.
I love lord of the rings. it makes me laugh and smile and it makes me cry I just love it the magnitude of the story is just mind blowing I am extremely lucky for the small role it plays in my life .
Such a beautiful voice and beautiful lyrics. She put so much emotion into it. This song reminds Me of my mother who passed it brings me to tears when I play it. It truly does help you.
@terpsichoreankat Tolkien would be in tears knowing what masterpiece his words became and how they touched generations. I can't think of any story that has ever been treated with so much respect and reverence as his.
my daughter died in 2006; for months i lay on my sofa crying. i started at the walls while action movies played on the television. after awhile i heard the music:"what can you see on the horizon, why do the white doves call?" i'll never forget this music ... it helped save my life.
YouPrete... I suppose you're italian (just like me)... Hearing this song really make me chill, but I'm completely atheist...It chill me because i love LOTR, things are a bit different... So leave this place and take your bullshit with you, my dear friend :)
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."
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 is so beautiful. It really, truly does take you to a magical place deep within you. When I first heard this song, I cried. It's a very touching piece. <3

This is the very highest calibre of performance. A beautiful song she co wrote and she sings this to perfection with poise, grace, and the utmost style that is Annie Lennox....truly the best.
It just makes me think of all my important people and memories. I was amazed how professional she really is, it isn't any less better because it's live performance. It is a wonderful song!
It is so touching and so nostalgic this song and the performance is incredible from Annie!!!! It reminds us all our nostalgia about Tolkien's magical Middle Earth and our beloved heros from his fabulous books!!!
Mirar el video, escuchar la canción y descubrir que no aguantas las ganas de ver de nuevo la Saga! Hurra x todos los que nos emocionamos con solo ver la frase TLOTR!!!
I love watching her sing. Her voice is simply amazing... it's beautiful, and the way she sings, you can tell she really feels the music. She connects to it. I can tell singing is a big passion of hers, and her voice with this song in particular... I know that they say nothing is perfect, but this comes pretty dang close. <3
this music is like a beautifull dream, you wish you could be there with frodo and sam, you wish you don't have to live in this modern world with it's politics and corruption but when the music stops and you wake up you have to accept the fact that it's nothing more than a dream that never could be reality....
