  • 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 .

  • Every once in a while the Oscars show a little taste and class. This was one of those moments.

  • I ball like a baby at the end of this movie every time.

  • 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.

  • i expected a more appealing appearance, this video ruined everything.. fuck you uploader

  • Thx for capturing this video! I love how the song captures the essence of the Ring trilogy. I think Tolkien would have enjoyed this. =^..^*=

  • @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.

  • It won the Oscar too. :)

  • @herky08 yeah. strange to think how old these movies are. they were being made in the 90's technically. have you seen the hobbit trailer?

  • 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!

    Whoever says otherwise is a lunatic. :D

  • @100000killstreak ... and probably no better singer than Annie Lennox!

  • Liv is the bomb. Annie's dress is the bomb. This song is the bomb.

  • 31 deaf people disliked the video because they couldn't hear it.

  • wow, I still can't get enough of this song!! Her voice is so warm, rich and spicy!!! Love it!!!!!

  • This.Is.Beautiful

  • 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

  • Give her a shitter looks like she need to take a poo when she sings!

  • This brings tears to my eyes. Every time. I love the LOTR soundtrack, even the Gladiator soundtrack doesn't come close.
