Death makes our lives precious by ending them before we despise them. The end of the adventure lets you rest, lets you understand. Great sadness reflects the capacity for great joy. This is what I take from the music of this song.

Sure liked these cartoons of Tolkien's work when I was a kid.

the hobbit and the return of the king are true master pieces that have rarely been rivaled in story and art the lord of the rings(1978) was an awful work that equals up to an acid trip especially when they used live actors for most of it with that stupid animation program that you only see in music videos of that era the art and story were the worst story and lack of Emertion i regret ever watching it but the hobbit and the return of the king art second to none in all forms of the word

Respond to this video... Also wanted to say, I listen mostly to classical music...this isn't a one type of music is better than another argument btw...but as far as popular music goes there are only a few voices that have captured my imagination, and Yarbrough's is one of them. The quality of his voice is unique and lends a wonderful sincerity to these simple songs. For me, I would put his voice in my top ten popular singers, I just love the expressive quality of his voice.
