Lord of the Rings- The one Ring (Black Speech)

[FEDEBADENPOWER]

Am I the first to think that this is made with Talk-It, and MAYBE a bit of Sound Forge?... Nevermind. I like it.

May the light of the eastern lands of Valinor shine upon your path my friend.

[pen0neth]

@FEDEBADENPOWER I'm glad you like it but your comment made me laugh! I haven't even heard of talk-it before you mentioned it (I had to google it). When I recorded this (years ago), I used audacity for it. That's just what I sound like when I make my voice really deep and rough and add some effects (I actually have a pretty normal female voice)! Would talk-it even be able to add intonation, like I did? As far as I know text-to-sound programs always sound a little "flat" and robot like. :)

[lagrimafria]

hey "some woman"..... how do you do that voice?...too much cool

[pen0neth]

@lagrimafria I don't know... I just really strained my voice and tried to go as deep as I could. And I rolled the "r" (this always helps when you want to sound evil) ;3

[lebarosky]

I don't think the z in nazg is silent. lol

[Steelioss]

This sounds really cool. Kinda like the woman voice because it makes it sound really evil.

[Raven42222]

I bet that Sauron is a great fan of Burzum.

[metaldorksforever666]

@Raven42222 lol..

[Leofox94]

only problem we got is that there are no women in mordor lawl... Therefore you can't speak black speech.

[GortosXtreme]

I love how well thought through any language in LOTR is. Nazg means ring as you can clearly hear here, so the ring-ghosts are the nazg-guhl...

[TheTurkeySlasher]

OMG UR VOICE IS GHOSTLY IT SCARES ME

[iainp18]

@saret8. Haaahaaaahaaahaaa, fuck you. Oh no, seriously. Fuck you.

[Wyrmshadow]

dude, thats fucking creepy. Makes my skin crawl every time I hear it.

[saret8]

Tolkein knew stuff he was disgusted by mordor for a reason. Mordor is hell sauron the devil and the ring is sin. The Orcs are his demons and the sword of elendil is the bible. Gandalf the grey is the old testament and the white is the new testament, and hobbits are the people on earth stuck to struggle with sin and death and life.

[A1R3D3E7]

@saret8 where do all you crazy bibble people come from?

[BronkoOfDeath]

@saret8 May be, may not. This is, what you take along. As Tolkien said: "To ask if the Orcs 'are' Communists is to me as sensible as asking if Communists are Orcs."

[persuadingly]

@saret8 Actually, Tolkien did not intend for The Lord of the Rings to be allegorical.

[Masterferret7]

According to something I read online recently, Tolkien himself strongly disliked the sound and concept of the Black Speech. A fan once sent him a gift of a steel drinking goblet, but when Tolkien realized that the Tengwar writing from the One Ring was inscribed on it, he decided never to drink from the thing, and instead used it for an ashtray! Personally, I kinda like the rumbling, edgy sound of the language of Mordor. :/

[ForWeAreLegion]

What is the name of the sound in the background?

[jhibbitt1]

@ForWeAreLegion its the elf theme from the soundtrack

[Dominguez543]

it sounded good



[xerx1000]

it makes me want to sing: WHAT WILL WE DO WITH A DRUNKEN WOMAN

[Maridianokusho]

Well done!!!

Reminds me of 'Army of Darkness': "I might be evil, but I'm feeling good!"

[Maridianokusho]

"Ash nazg durbatuluk, ash nazg gimbatul.

Ash nazg, thrakatuluk, ag bursum ishi krimpatul!"

[nothingfeelstgood]

SINDARINS SEXIIER!!! ;))

[PandemicInfektion]

Sounds kind of like a woman summoning Satan rather than an evil lord chanting words of power:) pretty cool

[TolHydra]

wow! just wow

[metalerz666]

Good voice :D I think it really fits for evil speaches.. as for the pronounciation.. Well you know

[StuBBy212]

You need to put more emphasis on the rolling of your R's and L's. That's essentially what makes Black Speech so demonic sounding.

[theprophet113]

ASH NAZG DURBATULUK, ASH NAZG GIMBATUL, ASH NAZG THRAKATULUK, AGH BURZUM-ISHI KRIMPATUL!!! gotta YELL it out, still good though :)

[InfernumThe]

I only know that Burzum means darkness

[DARKRIDER762]

really cool ^^ (you sound like some woman) ^^

[pen0neth]

@DARKRIDER762 Actually, I am "some woman"!

[HolosNauta]

@pen0neth quite obvious.

Say, are you familiar with an Semitic or Turkic language? You have a very good pronunciation of harsh consonants. I you haven't yet, you definitely should consider picking up perhaps an afro-asiatic language.

Tidings of good health.

[vladarett]

@pen0neth Epic Fail :)

[pen0neth]

@vladarett ... Care to elaborate on that? Or maybe you've recorded a better version? By the way, I don't even know why everybody's still fussing about right pronunciation etc. - this video is 3 years old.

[SultanRoyal]

@pen0neth I think vladarett's comment was meant to be directed at DARKRIDER762 because he couldn't hear you are a woman.

[ironmadion55]

@pen0neth He's just sayin that 'DarkRider762' had an epic fail on his comment. This video is actually really good.

[ChemicalCorpse1]

@pen0neth holy shit O_O u sound like sauron's wife or something xD

[ProudMuslim567]

I have learned elvish and on Tengwar you spell it like this:

"Ash nazg durbatulik,

Ash nazg grimbatul,

Ash nazg thrakalukluk,

Burzum ishi krimpatul".

I also have learned Qenya and Sindarin (Two types of elvish),and it is more easy to say it in these languages.

=)

[Shadoufang]

+P.S.: I don't know black speech pronunciation either, but I really dig how it sounded.

[Shadoufang]

Ooh, I was surprised, it sounds great ='D congrats!

[almerson]

if there was FCC in middle-earth theyd really censor this

[Zardozthedestroyer]

OMG IS THE BLACK SPEECH OF MORONDOR!!!

[DARKRIDER762]

@Zardozthedestroyer lolz its not MORONDOR XD :D

[Friendulum]

Well done, lovely Pen.

Your vocal timbre and performance are appropriately eerie.

[iWearCapeIRL]

You sound like an elf kind of :D

[joshuazp1]

retard

[DemiathDoomhammer]

yeah, it does sound like a satanic ritual, but maybe that's what Tolkien had in mind, you know, really scary voices performing an exorcism..

[romas1995]

honestly , its awesome , but is sound more like a satanic ritual or an exorcism than a elf or a middle earth man. :P

[aeunuchsthroat]

Good job.  Always loved Black Speech, you did well with it.

[MrFunkyBoogaloo]

[paradisecity599]

whats the music called?

[dragonsclawofdeath]

'ash nazg' must be 'one ring' dont u think?

[Soothfish]

Tolkien is damn good at making fake languages. You can feel the malice in every syllable.

[Shavarnarak]

@Soothfish

Kind of funny, to me this language actually sounds MORE pleasing to the ear then the elfy ones.

Probably because my own language is fairly consonant heavy. (And has the gh sound as a normal sound.)

I also think it sounds a little like some sort of mongolian-esque language. which is cool.

[KevinMHAlejandro]

Ash Nazg durbatulûk, ash Nazg gimbatul, ash Nazg trakatulûk, agh burzum-ishi krimpatul, uzg-Mordor-ishi amal fauthut burgûli.

[TheAgent181]

you got the prononciation all wrong ash nash is how you pronounce it not ash nag

[pen0neth]

@TheAgent181 thank you for your critique. Frankly, I don't care about things like pronounciation, etc. I simply recorded myself while I was reading this text. I can't actually "speak" black speech. I just found it to sound cool.

[pen0neth]

But I understand that there are other people who care about this sort of thing and who spent a lot of time trying to get it right. I respect that. But that's not why I did this recording.

I did it on a whim and some people actually happened to appreciate it - something I didn't expect. :D

[RuntOfTheBatch]

@TheAgent181

no both are wrong. It is pronounce ash nask

[wotaj]

@TheAgent181

actually it's ash nazg

[PassionatelyPurple]

@TheAgent181 lol. Actually, your pronunciation is just as bad! It's not "ash NASH" it's "ash NAZG" (nazg being pronounced exactly as it's spelled). I mean, you you don't pronounce Nazgûl as "NASHûl", do you? No.

[madkiller566]

@PassionatelyPurple well actually NASHul sounds fuckin awesome !!

[clairenunavut]

great!

[Raventhetitan]

Great Job!

[Alcagaur]

An undertaking of extreme bravery given the rabid nature of some who fall under the wide umbrella of "fan", particularly for a work like this, but I for one am highly impressed. Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo.

[cheesecheesecheesey]

u r weird but in a good way i mean ur voice not u personally

[maxlover4567]

It's so cool that Tolkien actually developed full languages for his world!

[WhitePhatGuy]

@maxlover4567 Not totally "full" languages, but Quenya is pretty close

[ilikedogschit92]

@maxlover4567 idd man thats sooo sweet!

[LukeSpencerGH]

Fantastic!

[narutopokemon2312]

Niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Jannik94able]

Aragorn vs. Palantir

cê µebrûm erâ .... µndûcishî arû urâk kµî

[musicmusic0202]

how did you learn this?! :O

[pen0neth]

I didn't "learn" this. I simply read out the text which you can find with google and tried to make my voice sound scary...

But I'm glad you like it.

[pyramidheadkitten9]

@musicmusic0202 theres not much to the language, the part one the ring is pretty much the only example of it.

[okpapereat]

lol is there even a place to learn the speach i think some fans are taking this too far

[piotrs301]

Great, thanks. I love listening to Sauron's Black Speech. It is a superior language. For Mordor and its Master! :)

[LimpLoser]

evil and sexy

[pen0neth]

Heehee... thank you.

[Emlief]

haha, great XD

[TheStam19]

o shit that voice made me pee on my pants

[pen0neth]

Uhm... in a good way...? :D

[TheStam19]

does the orcs speak the black speech?? or human speech?

[777shaitan666]

Basically the Orcs had no language of their own, but took bits and parts of other tongues like Westron, Quenyan, Sindarin etc.... and twisted them for their own use. Black Speech was mainly used by the higher uppers of Mordor and the Nazgul. And Sauron of course.

[J4mes1991]

The Black Speech was devised by Sauron in the second age as a kind of 'second language' for all those under his command, as orc-speech varied wildly (The ones who killed Boromir had to use Westron, for example, as they were from several different tribes). There are 2 kinds, the 'pure' one spoken by Sauron, Nazgul, etc, and a more debased version spoken by the armies inside Mordor.

[GoddessElvina]

Now Heidi if you read this I think I distinctly heard DIMBAT! hee hee loves ya fangy dearest

[pen0neth]

uhm... huh? :D

[GoddessElvina]

I know its really DIMVAT in pronunciation but the I still vividly envision DIMBAT....lol

[rapunzelkh]

i learned it by reading the words from the book and hearing it in the movies LOL

[Deathwish874]

Cool.

[GoddessElvina]

cumznu your so funny Black Speech has to do with Satan & Cain & believe or not it takes great wisdom to realize it is not always bad. Dark powers & Light ones often interchange at higher levels. As for men of Dark color Martin Luther Kings, " Find the Good & Praise it." Was a gallant quote!

[GoddessElvina]

Here is the apparent balance. The Alpha & Omega denoted in Black language as it should predate the Elvish language. The origin of the Pentacle traced back to the beginning of creation from Black Family Witchcraft. Thus evolving into the arrival & emergence of the Maia angelic & Elvin as centerpoint. Elvish the white/ Black the darker magic. Yet in Elvish a man's voice read it & tyranny in rule. Counterbalance Black Language uses bind & a female voice. Sacred masco-feminine/ light-dark balanced!

[GoddessElvina]

Isn't that facinating to translate from Elvin to Black Speech & with one word finally release the spell? No mistake there!

[GoddessElvina]

Funny to rule is not a spell but to bind said by the correct spell & enchantment begins. I don't think it was an error....do you?? Also to rule implies tyranny & not harmony nor love. Rule that is mortals, Bind that is one with true power!

[Robertdosje]

Hmm...

[ZrAoCcKks]

very good i can speak a little more

[loreermejo]

« Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul,

ash nazg thrakatulûk, agh burzum-ishi krimpatul. »

[MisoraOkada]

@loreermejo what language is that?

[IVomitOnYourGod]

@loreermejo Sounds like a mix of Romanian and Turkish.

[peacecanhappen27]

SirithHeruwen, please if you can't be nice refrain from commenting.

On a lighter note that was a wonderful rendition! eerily lovely!

[wutevamanz]

ash nazg durbatuluk, ash nazg gimbatul, ash nazg thrakatuluk, agh burzum ishi krimpatul

:D

[Makromax]

only one thing, your first sentence was "one ring to bind them all"... should've been "one ring to rule them all" but good though

[TheSugar1983]

Black speech always sounds cool

[HorusNikopol]

i know this by heart and i love your version. great job!

[Doovlo]

Very well!!You sound evil great work

[chee006]

did you buy the ring?

[skilledwithblades]

I have to say that I found that was really scarey. Well done!

[Kyuudousha]

Actually I fouind that pretty spine-tingling... Scarily well done!

[SirithHeruwen]

Much better than your singing 0.o 4/5

[pen0neth]

wow! thanks again for your opinion.

pity that I don't give a ...

[SirithHeruwen]

[VindictivePaintball]

[z1m0]

[wolsing333]

[z1m0]

[BannedMetalNick]

good you sound like some old woman that would be important to the story, or a witch woman that is evil.

[maidenslayer]

Listen to the song, 'a new power is rising' by summoning, awesome song!

[boldbearings]

Tyrannical.

The hairs on the back of my neck stood up.

[Arwenkid]

Wahoo! So cool!

[nemo3590]

lol, evilness.

[adyboy76]

[svarogfromhell85]

i will do it better

[maftuh23]

Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul, ash nazg thrakatulûk, agh burzum-ishi krimpatul.

When translated into English, these words form the lines: One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them

[YogiToad]

Spot on.

[notacommunist]

That actually is pretty sexy.

;)

[pen0neth]

haha... that's what I intended! XD

[ANDRE2DOPE]

who knows how to say "Immortal" in black speech

[Hallelya]

Hmm. Actually, Black Speech IS truly sexy. :)

Then, I've always had a great, great attraction for villains & their side, so I can't tell if it influences me...

Elvish is beautiful, but Black Speech is sexy. :D Nice job, you did it well !

[pen0neth]

yay! thanks!

[trytuningthat]

uzg mordor ishi amal fauthaut burgula

ie. in mordor where the shadows lie

...hell of a lot of spare time in high school lol

[keepitreal17]

[blackstormelf]

Check out-Summoning-A New Power Rising.The Beginning of the song is so much cooler!!

[fr33muffins]

Where can I learn Black Speech? or Quenya, or Sindarin? Or even Weston?

[adyboy76]

buy da cd game "War of the Ring" by Liquid Entertainment..start the game..and u'll listen to the most powerful black speech of the Nazgul u'll ever heard..

[falar12349]

Where can I get the words to this?

[frenrirrider]

wow, that was pretty awesome! keep it up!

hhhmmm, as for evil, maybe if you said it more in your throat it would sound creepy....

[VampireLuver4ever]

That was cool!

Love LOTR

[neutrinotau]

Toll!

[domuhoj]

I thought this was going to be in Ebonics.

[wormdemorgoth]

nice...but i dont think you got the sound quite right =P i mean,it supposed to sound a bit demonic..even the evles were disturbed when gandalf recited them at rivendel. =D i think

[vim92]

can you please type out the speech? please?

im trying to memorise it.=D

[pen0neth]

but "Gaaraofthedesert44" has already typed it out in his comment... look down there!^^

[vim92]

oh sorry! i didn't notice it.. thanks anyway.

looking at the poem itself gives me an ominous feeling, let alone reciting it!.. lol

[falar12349]

"Ash nazg durbaduluk Ash nazg gimbatul Ash nazg trakhatuluk, agh burzum ishi krimpatul.

[lotrfreak123456]

sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!! i can write quenya and sindarin but i cant speak it dat fucking sucks

[Gaaraofthedesert44]

Ash nazg durbaduluk Ash nazg gimbatul

Ash nazg trakhatuluk, agh burzum ishi krimpatul. That is what it says in the language of Mordor. The coolest poem ever written in a pseudo-language.

[kamillakk]

very nice job, but you didn't pronounce the very last word right. i'm talking of the "krimpatul."

i can't explain in english how it is pronounced right, but if you wath th movie (FotR Extended Version) Gandalf actually says this.. he does it the right way.

otherwise GOOD JOB! :-)

[pen0neth]

thnaks! yeah... i know... i really kinda screwed up that word... but it was too late when i noticed it!^^

[coachpotato22]

very very nice. you did achieve your goal of sounding evil by the way. :] bravo!

[danceaddict30]

what does it say in the ring? what is writing their in elvish?

[evilmick66]

The same as the poem. "One ring to rule them all... etc."

[zackthal]

"the writing is elvish but the language is that of mordor which i will not utter here"

[frenrirrider]

hehe, nice reply....

[daddysangel90]

nicw Job

you sound great!!

".)

[PaganViking]

Nice job

[Ascalanthe]

"Sometimes Black speech actually sounds sexy.."

ROFL ! :p

But I must agree

[aurashg]

LOL!!! FUNNY!!! You are right though. It does sound sexy.

[anoriea]

Wow that realy sounded evil!

Well done!

[piscadil]

Did you mean to sound like an old witch? Good job, anyway. Keep it up.

[pen0neth]

XD... I just wanted to sound as evil as possible. I mean, that's pure Black Speech... only Sauron used it!^^

[piscadil]

As I said, you did a good job, and I love your work. Keep it up.
