The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers Soundtrack - 18. Samwise The Brave

This song again goes back to a small theme of the Shire, which Shore tends to do when Hobbits are around and the time is merry. Sam and Frodo have won their escape from Faramir, who shows his quality. He sends them speedily on their way, threatening Gollum to not harm them.

Sam then goes into his little tirade of "The Tales That Really Matter" about why the world won't go to a better place. This shows Frodo and Sam's great relationship unfolding, and both of them are extremely grateful for the other's presence.

Imagine if they added this music into Neville's speech for Harry's honor during the Battle of Hogwarts.

Frodo was the only one who could destroy the ring. Sam was important, but he could not destroy the ring. Sam wanted Golum dead, but Frodo saw Smeagol and that is proof to why only Frodo was strong enough to carry the burden.

Frodos heart possessed the strenght and mercy, greater than anyone, to spare Smeagol, and this is why he could resist the corruption.

But he could not have made it without Sam, because Sam was there for Frodo when frodos mercy and charity betrayed him.

"I can't carry it for you! BUT I CAN CARRY YOU!" Samwise Gamgee... the greatest fictional character of them all!

@NormbrettaMod Touche. Well played. You're absolutely right. My point was, that most fantasy is "medieval", or dark ages, style in terms of weaponry and armour and all that. I don't mean the theme is medieval. But I doubt many would argue over that. It isn't really even a big deal.

@Hinatafan4ever666

style of warfare was very similar in the times of the roman empire, but they weren't medieval. tolkien's work was inspired by a mixture of cultures and periods, the anglo-saxons were one, the ancient celts another, biblical times...really, the medieval times were quite grim and dull; no where near as romantic as what we know as the dark ages or pre-roman europe which was when much of the myths, legends and fairytales were born. the lotr is pretty much a very deep fairytale.

@Lizzajr118

yes you do...

[Hinatafan4ever666]

@NormbrettaMod Swords, shields, leather and metal armour, catapults and horse chargers met with arrow volleys is usually considered medieval. Is there a time period you find more appropriate?

[Lizzajr118]

@NormbrettaMod Fair enough. I concede.

Allways crying... :'( :)

@Lizzajr118

world of warcraft is "nerdy"...warhammer is "nerdy"...anything with that much cheese designed to make young people escape their own world into one where they feel everything is centred around them *can* be labelled "nerdy". the lord of the rings is a very english and very sophisticated piece of work written in a time when nerds didn't exist. personally, i'd sooner call it a mature fairytale than fantasy.

[Lizzajr118]

@NormbrettaMod No I'm associating Lord of the Rings with it. If you can't accept that the fantasy genre is nerdy, you are a very confused person.

@Hinatafan4ever666

no...not medieval...at all. just...no...
