The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King Soundtrack - 08. Twilight and Shadow

This song features Renee Fleming. It is a song of despair in the face of the growing Shadow of the East. However, the song does turn light and cheery. One thing that does cheer anyone up who listens to this is Fleming's voice. The singers throughout the Lord of the Rings soundtrack do a fantastic job of adding their voice to the music, but keeping the spirit of the films in place. None of them try to put the focus of the film on themselves.

This Song also shows the sadness of Arwen when she sees a vision of her son and Aragorn. Shore uses the Evenstar played in a depressive way and highlights the future for Arwen.

LOTR has without a doubt got one of the most beautiful soundtracks in cinematic history.

Most beautiful soundtrack in film history; Howard Shore is a genius.

The songs, lyrics and images from The Lord of The Rings are so fantastic. I'm one hundred percent sure no-one has ever worked so hard (and succeded) to make a movie. Lord of the Rings really is the best movies ever, the characters, the actresses and what they all have gone through, Peter Jackson and everyone that have worked with this really do earn great respect for all their work just to give us the most wonderful movie of all times. Lotr isnt just a movie, its all of the worlds FeelingsInOne.

Mysticism exists, you feel it in this movie, the power and wonder of life..the intense emotion and yearning. The fabric of space/time is alive, waiting for us to use it. science is already stepping on its footsteps....quantum flux, visual particles, string theory.

Best movie, best music, best cast! Never wanted them to end! Could have made each movie 15 hours instead of it being the combined total. :P
