"I never called Edith Luthien - but she was the source of the story that in time became the chief part of the Silmarillion. It was first conceived in a small woodland glade filled with hemlocks at Roos in Yorkshire (where I was for a brief time in command of an outpost of the Humber Garrison in 1917, and she was able to live with me for a while). In those days her hair was raven, her skin clear, her eyes brighter than you have seen them, and she could sing - and dance. But the story has gone crooked, & I am left, and I cannot plead before the inexorable Mandos." - J. R. R. Tolkien Letters #340 to his son Christopher

I love the little detail when she sings "Before he leaves this sphere" Which is a clear reference to the fact that when elves die they go to Mandos but when Men die they go somewhere else not bound to the world of Arda It's a nice detail from Eurielle and awesomely done
The word sphere stood out to the Tolkein nerd in me - so much so that I searched for the word sphere and found your comment here. The world was flat during the First Age when Beren and Luthien lived, and wouldn't be made round until the drowning of Numenor when the "straight road" was left only to the elves. It's easy enough to imagine Luthien in the lament meant sphere as as a domain of power or influence, though it is a stretch since the sphere-ing of the world is so important to the later story. That tiny nitpick aside, this song is very, very good.
@@nicholasmainini3897 in some versions of Tolkien's writing it is a sphere from the start and not flat. The bigger problem is that sphere is not English enough. "Beyond the Circles of the World" is referenced throughout the Legendarium, something that reminded that mightve been better.
@@MrRenanHappy Yes, but to rhyme the closest to circles of the world were sphere. And to be fair even tough Arda was flat in the published Silmarillion you could count Ea as a whole as a sphere

"It was the most beautiful song ever sing in middle earth, so pure it reaches the heart of Mandos himself." What I love about you Eurielle is not only that your voice is perfect nor that the lyrics are amazing but that it looks so realistic! I can imagine the beautiful luthien singing in sorrow , begging for her love return. You are not singing Luthien's song, you ARE luthien singing! You and the universe of Tolkien are like heaven on earth !
"As the great Professor Tolkien never actually wrote any lyrics for this song, and to my knowledge nobody else has ever written any music for it either, I decided to take up the challenge of creating this legendary song myself." -Eurielle, 2017 'For never was a greater love Than that within our hearts Once born, forever binding us E'en tho' through death we part.' You did it. You created it. This is a masterpiece of art in its highest form. You deserve better that RUclips clicks and likes. I hope Amazon picks this song up and makes it official canon with their upcoming Middle Earth showbiz. If not, well, this will spread far and wide to the end of time, and future generations will keep this song and its message close to their hearts. I sent this to my wife and she cried tears of joy. This is real art.
Don't hold your breath, it would be beautiful but given they want it to be anything lke GoT and given their writing staff, I'm not quite sure, they even have something stupid as an intimacy coach(What a job by the way, it's like being a fortnite coach) for sex scenes when the Silmarillion depicts love not the vulgar events in GoT, to try and make a GoT like show out of Tolkien's work is like trying to make Dry water
They need to make a movie for the Silmarillion and this woman needs to be Luthien, this is probably the most accurate representation of what Luthien sung to Mandos and I want there to be a movie with this song being in it!!!! Who's with me?
"Then Lúthien stood upon the bridge, and declared her power: and the spell was loosed that bound stone to stone, and the gates were thrown down, and the walls opened, and the pits laid bare; and many thralls and captives came forth in wonder and dismay, shielding their eyes against the pale moon light, for they had lain long in the darkness of Sauron." -From the Silmarillion
"There Lúthien sang a song of such extraordinary power and beauty that it moved even the implacable heart of Mandos himself." I never thought I would hear Lúthien's song and here I am, thank you.
If I was Mandos sitting there on my throne, I would be balling in tears, crying my eyes out from feeling the grief and sadness in her voice and song. I am so glad that Lúthien and Beren finally got their happy ending.
A voice like this will make you cry for two reasons: One being that it is so beautiful and moving, and two being that you realize you have no talent compared to them.
yes, singing like her would be very hard for you. But you shouldn't aim to sing like her, or anyone else. Aim to sing like yourself and you can create something of equal beauty
"And Mandos was moved to pity, who never before was so moved, nor has been since." Yes, Lúthien was able to move a mountain, and no doubt that this song would do it too.
Listening to this whilst reading "Beren and Luthien" gives a whole new radiance to that suffering Elven maid. Once carefree, a new power wandered into her heart. She suffered her Father's disdain for her beloved. She suffered his leaving, his torment at the hands of Sauron in Tol-in-Gaurhoth, she suffered his leaving again, then every painful, heavy, horrific step towards and in the fell dreaded halls of Angband. She suffered the malice of Morgoth's stare. She suffered the dreaded millennials of the seconds Beren cut the Silmaril from the Black Crown. She suffered the terror of his Awakening, their horrible departure. She suffered the grievous wounding of Beren by Carcharoth. She suffered His pain as she healed him. She suffered the steps towards Doriath. She suffered the long centuries of the hours of the Hunt for the dreaded Wolf. She suffered Huan and Beren leaving the world...a suffering beyond words. Only a song was realized. A song that joined Eru Illuvatar's themes. Thou hast given voice to the suffering of Luthien. Guren Glassui, Hiril Vuin. (Thank you, My Lady in Sindarin)
This is the closest thing to what I imagine how Lúthien's voice would sound. Hard to comment, perfect lyrics, perfect music, you're wandering around the "perfect".
It is said that Mandos had never been so moved, and never would he ever be again. A lament of mortal love that moved a god. How beautifully Tolkien writes...
Let's be clear: The ONLY way to properly bring the Silmarilion to the screen would be to do it Game of Thrones style with about 10 times the budget. One of the seasons would need to end with the tale of Beren and Luthien. This song would be *the* perfect climax of that season. It builds to this moment, grows silent before this masterpeice comes on. Nothing else would suffice. It is that perfect. Throw in how the professor considered this the pivotal moment of the Silmarilion, and it all adds up.
I pray to Ilúvatar that never happens, my brother. The world would demand that strange creatures to play the roles of the heroes of our most sacred stories. The heathen god of diversity is taking over and twisting our people's hearts.
Yes, although Mandos was moved to pity he admitted to Luthien that he had neither the power or authority to grant her request. So he informed Manwe who in turn took the Issue to Iluvatar. And it was Iluvatar who gave Luthien the choice: Immortality free from Grief in Valinor or Mortality with Been.
@@olympiaelda1121 Lúthien ended up choosing mortality with Beren over the Immortaility of Valinor and the pair than returned to the Kingdom of Doriath.
I believe the Professor himself, especially if he heard this after the death of his beloved wife, would be moved to tears in a good way and love the song. Very well done.
Well, as a male I'm not really into love stories, but this one is my favorite, of all. It's not some kind of romantic movie, or one of the trash, that I could consider as a blasphemy of vampires. It is Fantasy. I mean real Fantasy.
...and then, Mandos' unchanging heart was moved, for the first and only time. that song made death, the most absolute truth in the world, submit in favor of the love that two beings professed for each other.
This... The Luthien and Beren part is, for me, the most beautiful story in all the Tolkien world. When i read this story, i was touched by the sincerity of this moment, when Luthien kneel front of Mandos.... just beautiful... And this song, is a great tribute of this wonderful moment. Thanks you for your performance, it's really a great moment of music and feeling.
I am certain both Professor Tolkien and Mrs. Tolkien appreciate and love this beautiful song you have sung. You honor Beren and Luthien with this song. Well done and thank you.
This song makes me think of someone very special and dear to me…Caitlin. Thank you JRR Tolkien for writing one of the most heart-wrenching tales ever, and thank you Eurielle for such a beautiful piece.
I can't listen to this without crying, which seems appropriate since it managed to sway even Mandos. This is such a beautiful song, and definitely worthy of Luthien. Amazing work!
I close my eyes and I feel like I'm wandering in the undying lands... far from this world. Thank you Eurielle for giving us the pleasure to hear your voice. A voice touched by the grace of the Valar...
incredibly tempted to translate this into sindarin and learn it can't ever hope to sing as lovely as yourself, but it'd make a wonderful lullaby for my sister
I have always read the Silmarillion with the idea that though written as a narrative, I have to think Tolkien meant it to be sung as some grand opera. You have captured that very spirit in this song. Imagine this sung on stage in some great opera hall, a show stopper in an opera chalk full of them! Brava! Bravissima!
I've heard this song now and then over the years, had it in a couple playlists while I was playing LOTR stuff. I was today years old when I saw the comments talking about how you wrote this. I read the description and I'm shook, I genuinely thought Tolkien had written this like the poem of Beren and Luthien itself. The word choice, the content, everything about it never made me question whether or not it was Tolkien because in my head this is what he would've written. So I don't know if that's an immense slight to you that I've seemingly ignored your incredible writing talent or if this is extreme praise that you absolutely nailed every single aspect of Tolkien, the LOTR and the story of Beren and Luthien. I hope you take it as a compliment because I'm seriously impressed.
Черт подери, это буквально одна из лучших песен, когда либо услышанных мною! А я вам скажу, тот ещё музыкальный гурман! Но тут даже меня пробило : и исполнение, и (что в наши дни редкость) текст прекрасны! Эммоций бы ещё побольше и был бы шедевр, без шуток, на века. Единственное, что я могу вспомнить из более менее способного сравнится - это "Песня Арвен" ("Пусть вечерняя звезда взойдёт над тобой ").
I already cried just reading their part in the book. Now that I'm listening to this while re-reading their chapter, I can't help but cry some more. And more.
I just discovered this channel and heard this song for the very first time! I'm listening to it on repeat and can't stop crying! This song left me completely speechless and thinking of all the wonderful people in my life that I've loved and lost! Personally I've never known a romantic love as this and that saddened me deeply. I hope to find a love like this one day even though I know one day that same love with be lost. I can't stop crying. This song to so sorrowful and beautiful... 😭😭💧💦🌧️☔🌊🌊🌊
"for he watched her, leaving her free for awhile, and taking secret pleasure in his thought. Then suddenly she eluded his sight, and out of the shadows began a song of such surpassing loveliness, and of such blinding power, that he listened perforce; and a blindness came upon him, as his eyes roamed to and fro, seeking her. " - The Silmarillion Even Morgoth couldn't dislike Luthien's Singing.
@@Las3rBoy Hahaha small minded, sociopath and petty Morgoth full of mockeries and jealousy "looking upon her beauty conceived in his thought an evil lust"
Thank you. I have been through hell recently, and internally an emotional wreck, but I have had few tears. This beautifully written and performed song brought out everything I needed to feel and I found myself a blubbering mess. Thank you for writing this beautiful piece.
I can hear Tinuviel’s broken heart in your voice and the love for the Professor’s work in your words. So rare is it that I am moved to tears. I would applaud you if I could, though I fear my hands are busy hiding my face.
Amazing. Your work is among the finests I have heard. From a fellow Tolkien & Arda fan, Maë Govannen, and my deepest congratulations to you, dear Eurielle. I actually thought at first the lyrics had been written by the Professor (I did not know he had not). The melody is very moving indeed, very sad and touching. All around a good job! Namarië.
You exceeded my wildest expectations Eurielle! Truly captured the emotions and poetic bittersweetness of Luthien's lament for Beren! They should make a Silmarillion movie and you should make the whole soundtrack in my opinion.
The degree of strength and determination of Luthien and her undying and loyal Love to go to the beyond and ask for the Life of her beloved is incredible .That is what is so beautiful about this story: the degree of commitment and dedication to the other as signs of love .I want that and I want to give that .
What's truly amazing and leaves me flustered in every song you sing, and especially this one, is your wide voice range, that you use in such a harmonious way. It's really hard to master all those notes and fluidly strive through them like you do! The result is soft and powerful at the same time, like a classical soloist is trained to do. Thank you for embellishing this world Eurielle! You inspire me every day :)
I have waited so long for this!! Thank you!!! I'm in tears!!! Please do a lament of when Luthien stood before Morgoth, lulling even a more corrupt soul than Sauron.
Not only is the music impressive, but I must take a moment to stress how fantastic the composition is as well. The meter, the rhythm, the vocabulary, the tasteful use of the poetic register and archaisms, all is worthy of the Professor. In an age when even "professional" poets no longer write like this, you deserve double commendation. Brava.
An absolutely breathtaking, moving song for the Lady Lúthien. It captures her beauty and the love between Beren and Lúthien indescribably well. Tolkien would be proud.
Damn it, this is literally one of the best songs I've ever heard! And I'll tell you, i's a musical gourmet! But then even I was struck: and the execution, and (which is rare these days) the text is beautiful! Emotion would be even more and would be a masterpiece, no kidding, for centuries. The only thing I can remember from a more or less capable comparison is "The Song of Arwen" ("Let the evening star rise above you").
This is beautiful. You truly capture the essence of the song, of Lúthien coming before Mandos and all the Valar of Arda for her love of Beren. The raw talent you present in this, Tolkien's ultimate expression of passion and sorrow unbound that is the essence of all of his Middle Earth, is truly astonishing and mesmerising to listen to. I am in awe of you
Your voice is honestly not just "Beautiful voice" It tells stories , The emotions are just ... I can't describe I'm so fan of yours . Much love to you and to your music
There is a depth of solace, sadness, and sincerity in this that only difficulty is had in written expression. As high as dragon's fly, to the depths of abyssal plains, and with dying sparks in torrential winter. It is that class of emotion that is evoked, much like it is that spirit that listens while the ears hear.
I have never. Never. Never in this world heard such a masterpiece. It is so brilliant. When I had listened to it for the first time, it took me far away and back and forward to the Halls of Mandos. I could perfectly see Luthien in front of me... It was so sad and so beautifull dream.... Thanks you a lot, Eurielle, You have changed my life forever! Valar bless you!
Magnificent! Tolkien means a lot to me and the fact that you have made this song for characters as dear as Beren and Luthien is just magical! Thank you very much really! Your voice is incredible, the melody is beautiful and you are a genius!
Incredible. Captures the hope, wonder, sorrow, and sheer grandeur of the tale of Beren and Luthien. I am in awe every time I read or hear the story, and I can say the same about this song. Well done
This is awesome! Thank you Eurielle. Since you started with some Silmarillion music, may I ask for a song of Maglor? It would be great to have one. Maybe a fragment of Noldolantë or one when he is wandering by the shores. Anyway, keep making beatiful art as this one!
Simply amazing. Although i go with "there Was a reason for no lyrics from Tolkien", probably to further deepen the Meaning of how special and otherwordly Luthiens song Was, i daresay this must come pretty close. It is a fine line between sorrowful, hopeful, love and mystical like a song with words woven by the valar. Truly an amazing work and i Can listen to this endlessly. Thank you so much for sharing this with the World! And please keep up making such amazing songs For Tolkiens masterpiece.
Very awesome. Very well done. I love your voice, and I admire your disclaimer. As a Tolkien fan, and all that Middle Earth entails, I respect the character of Luthien as though she's "out of reach." Your effort here is faithful to intent, and your voice ethereal to give us that glimpse into the meeting between her and Mandos. I was moved, I was emotional; I felt your heart, and the echo of Luthien's pleas. You definitely did this justice. I could have listened to this, were it even 20 minutes in length, and resonated with the offering that she presented.
This song brings the Tolkien Legendarium to justice. Your voice is purely beautiful and I hope you make more videos of you singing songs from Middle Earth.
You did it again, Eurielle! You brought my heart to Middle-earth! The first thing I thought as I listened to this was, "Hmm... wow. This... she did this justice. This is... HER RANGE OMG!" You didn't even have any music or lyrics to go by? I tip my hat to you as a composer! I have composed a few things myself, but none as worthy as this. *adds it to my Eurielle Middle-earth playlist*
Merci beaucoup pour ce chant si émouvant, il m’a tant émue que j’en ai la chair de poule… je pense que vous avez fait là un sublime hommage à Tolkien et au couple que forment Beren et Lúthien… merci ❤️😭
This is a song that brought me to tears, and that this Song, Would be a wonderful Wedding song, a means of Eternal Binding of One's ❤️ and Love, and the Cherished Love, Lúthîen was a Beautiful woman, and Beren being one who was a prime example of a Noble Mortal who laid his life for his Love, that means eternity Eurielle, The Song has the Emotional passionate and Tugging at the Heart Strings
Bravo Eurielle! Do you have a CD with all your Tolkien inspired songs? If not, you simply must produce such a work and make it available for us. Art like yours is rare, special and beautiful. I had chills from the opening note.
One of the most beatiful song I have ever heard, I have cried in mid of it. It is a fact that all of the humans have a partner, & he/she awaits you for starting a lovley story Thanks for this music
Eurielle is very talented but this song really is something else. The performance, the lyrics, and the vivid evocative images it conjures - It is just a masterpiece. I echo another user’s comment in saying that this is a true homage to Tolkien. Surely he is smiling proudly somewhere beyond the veil.
I've never been one for love stories, but in this one, I can rightly feel her anguish, and it's so very well portrayed. Thanks for this well-done work.
I was actually planning on reading Beren and Luthien this fall, you have reaffirmed this choice for me. I love your music, and I love this song. keep going :D
Thank you so much. I can't find the right words to praise this. Only an artist like you can give voice to Lúthien. I kneel before thee. Greetings from Argentina.
Ta voix est magnifique .... Elle submerge par les émotions qu'elle transporte... Même lorsque que le silence retombe j'ai l'impression d'encore en entendre l'echo. C'est juste sublime .
For a song not meant to be expressed by mortal words and tunes, this is close enough to perfection that I challenge anyone to say it can be done better.
You did good, kid. I have read the Silmarillion more than once and I didn't realize Tolkien didn't write these words until I read the video description. Well done.
Wow! Your upper and lower range are so beautiful, but completely different. Your upper range sounds pure and sweet like a child, and your lower register is open and rich and dark.
Such a soulful, wonderful song! The melody, your moving beautiful voice, the words... it is truly a masterpiece and touches the heart. When I read the Silmarillion I always feel that there are still so many songs to be created and sung... songs that still sleep in the dephts of some creative artist's immagination like your's ❤
Your voice is incredible! I love your Tolkien music. Your angelic voice fits so well in his world. You really do his words and world justice and I don't say that lightly! This was incredible and I absolutely adored those low notes! You have such incredible range (:

Listening to this whilst reading "Beren and Luthien" gives a whole new radiance to that suffering Elven maid. Once carefree, a new power wandered into her heart. She suffered her Father's disdain for her beloved. She suffered his leaving, his torment at the hands of Sauron in Tol-in-Gaurhoth, she suffered his leaving again, then every painful, heavy, horrific step towards and in the fell dreaded halls of Angband. She suffered the malice of Morgoth's stare. She suffered the dreaded millennials of the seconds Beren cut the Silmaril from the Black Crown. She suffered the terror of his Awakening, their horrible departure. She suffered the grievous wounding of Beren by Carcharoth. She suffered His pain as she healed him. She suffered the steps towards Doriath. She suffered the long centuries of the hours of the Hunt for the dreaded Wolf. She suffered Huan and Beren leaving the world...a suffering beyond words. Only a song was realized. A song that joined Eru Illuvatar's themes. Thou hast given voice to the suffering of Luthien. Guren Glassui, Hiril Vuin. (Thank you, My Lady in Sindarin)
*millennia of the seconds Beren cut
This is the closest thing to what I imagine how Lúthien's voice would sound. Hard to comment, perfect lyrics, perfect music, you're wandering around the "perfect".
It is said that Mandos had never been so moved, and never would he ever be again.
A lament of mortal love that moved a god.
How beautifully Tolkien writes...
Very few could do such a song from such a character justice.
But Eurielle did it.
Love and grief walk hand in hand. Eurielle has managed to convey the extremes of both in four minutes. That, is real talent.
More Silmarillion inspired songs, please: your voice is perfect.
Greetings from Italy, Eurielle.
Mamia.Michael CORLEONE.Hello from Russia,man
ludovica piccardi Metatron??? Lol
ludovica piccardi ciao anche gli italiani ascoltano eurielle amen😍😍😍😍
@@a_great_fan_of_sammylovehi229 puoi dirlo forte
The fate of Turin or some thing like this would be cool
Let's be clear:
The ONLY way to properly bring the Silmarilion to the screen would be to do it Game of Thrones style with about 10 times the budget.
One of the seasons would need to end with the tale of Beren and Luthien. This song would be *the* perfect climax of that season. It builds to this moment, grows silent before this masterpeice comes on. Nothing else would suffice. It is that perfect.
Throw in how the professor considered this the pivotal moment of the Silmarilion, and it all adds up.
I pray to Ilúvatar that never happens, my brother. The world would demand that strange creatures to play the roles of the heroes of our most sacred stories. The heathen god of diversity is taking over and twisting our people's hearts.
@@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115 Strange creatures? You mean your fellow man?
@@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115 i agree with you, it just can’t happen. They better leave it to our imagination and Tolkiens.
@@jayjama47 Any one not being of fair race.
@@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115 yep
If Luthien sang like Eurielle, not Mandos nor Eru Ilúvatar could deny her request.
Yes, although Mandos was moved to pity he admitted to Luthien that he had neither the power or authority to grant her request. So he informed Manwe who in turn took the Issue to Iluvatar. And it was Iluvatar who gave Luthien the choice: Immortality free from Grief in Valinor or Mortality with Been.
@@Apollo890 What did she choose?
@@olympiaelda1121 Lúthien ended up choosing mortality with Beren over the Immortaility of Valinor and the pair than returned to the Kingdom of Doriath.
Even I Feanor have been moved to pity.
@@feanor1488 so you are okay with Luthien keeping the Silmaril?
I believe the Professor himself, especially if he heard this after the death of his beloved wife, would be moved to tears in a good way and love the song. Very well done.
On the verge of tears, hearing this. I love this story on The Silmarillion! Best love story ever!
Agreed Best love story ever
Well, as a male I'm not really into love stories, but this one is my favorite, of all. It's not some kind of romantic movie, or one of the trash, that I could consider as a blasphemy of vampires. It is Fantasy. I mean real Fantasy.
You can cry. Even Satan would be move that he'll ask God to get these two back.
Maybe you should buy the book about beren and luthien than. If Im correct, it came out last year.
@@lassesgamekanaal is it just the exerpt from the sillmarillion, but published as its own, seperate book?
...and then, Mandos' unchanging heart was moved, for the first and only time. that song made death, the most absolute truth in the world, submit in favor of the love that two beings professed for each other.
This...
The Luthien and Beren part is, for me, the most beautiful story in all the Tolkien world.
When i read this story, i was touched by the sincerity of this moment, when Luthien kneel front of Mandos.... just beautiful...
And this song, is a great tribute of this wonderful moment.
Thanks you for your performance, it's really a great moment of music and feeling.
I am certain both Professor Tolkien and Mrs. Tolkien appreciate and love this beautiful song you have sung. You honor Beren and Luthien with this song. Well done and thank you.
This song makes me think of someone very special and dear to me…Caitlin. Thank you JRR Tolkien for writing one of the most heart-wrenching tales ever, and thank you Eurielle for such a beautiful piece.
I’m literally fucking sobbing right now, I’m never going to be okay about these two and this was an absolute gut-punch to the feels.
I can't listen to this without crying, which seems appropriate since it managed to sway even Mandos. This is such a beautiful song, and definitely worthy of Luthien. Amazing work!
I close my eyes and I feel like I'm wandering in the undying lands... far from this world. Thank you Eurielle for giving us the pleasure to hear your voice. A voice touched by the grace of the Valar...
May the Valar protect you, Eurielle! Always.
But the Valar do not exist.
Melkor has taken you! Begone evil being!
The Yellow Strider *_W H A T_*
@@theyellowstrider2617 May they throw you into the timeless void! Begone!
@@theyellowstrider2617 Except they do.
Nine Orcs were bored apparently. This song is beautiful and holds so much power and sadness. I love it 😍
incredibly tempted to translate this into sindarin and learn it
can't ever hope to sing as lovely as yourself, but it'd make a wonderful lullaby for my sister
I have always read the Silmarillion with the idea that though written as a narrative, I have to think Tolkien meant it to be sung as some grand opera.
You have captured that very spirit in this song. Imagine this sung on stage in some great opera hall, a show stopper in an opera chalk full of them!
Brava! Bravissima!
I've heard this song now and then over the years, had it in a couple playlists while I was playing LOTR stuff. I was today years old when I saw the comments talking about how you wrote this. I read the description and I'm shook, I genuinely thought Tolkien had written this like the poem of Beren and Luthien itself. The word choice, the content, everything about it never made me question whether or not it was Tolkien because in my head this is what he would've written.
So I don't know if that's an immense slight to you that I've seemingly ignored your incredible writing talent or if this is extreme praise that you absolutely nailed every single aspect of Tolkien, the LOTR and the story of Beren and Luthien. I hope you take it as a compliment because I'm seriously impressed.
Черт подери, это буквально одна из лучших песен, когда либо услышанных мною!
А я вам скажу, тот ещё музыкальный гурман! Но тут даже меня пробило : и исполнение, и (что в наши дни редкость) текст прекрасны! Эммоций бы ещё побольше и был бы шедевр, без шуток, на века.
Единственное, что я могу вспомнить из более менее способного сравнится - это "Песня Арвен" ("Пусть вечерняя звезда взойдёт над тобой ").
Every time i listen to this song the tears will flow. This song is about real love. Eurielle's voice is amazing. Truly Elvish
This is surelly one of the most beautifull things I have ever heard in my life!
Absolutely gorgeous voice! I'm a man and I'm not ashamed to admit this song brings me to tears! Thank u. U have a amazing talent.
I already cried just reading their part in the book.
Now that I'm listening to this while re-reading their chapter, I can't help but cry some more.
And more.
These Tolkien tributes are amazing!
I got CHILLS. It was like Luthien's spirit herself had come to sing in my room. WOW!!!!!!!
I just discovered this channel and heard this song for the very first time! I'm listening to it on repeat and can't stop crying! This song left me completely speechless and thinking of all the wonderful people in my life that I've loved and lost! Personally I've never known a romantic love as this and that saddened me deeply. I hope to find a love like this one day even though I know one day that same love with be lost. I can't stop crying. This song to so sorrowful and beautiful... 😭😭💧💦🌧️☔🌊🌊🌊
Morgoth made 10 accounts to dislike this video.
He's salty XD
Now its 90.
Now 97th dragged to bring down this sphere, why this Melkor's deceit fare here
"for he watched her, leaving her free for awhile, and
taking secret pleasure in his thought. Then suddenly she
eluded his sight, and out of the shadows began a song of
such surpassing loveliness, and of such blinding power,
that he listened perforce; and a blindness came upon him,
as his eyes roamed to and fro, seeking her. " - The Silmarillion
Even Morgoth couldn't dislike Luthien's Singing.
@@Las3rBoy Hahaha small minded, sociopath and petty Morgoth full of mockeries and jealousy "looking upon her beauty conceived in his thought an evil lust"
Your voice is so beautiful.
This is actually a masterpiece.... phenomenal...just....there are no words..GOD I wish I could like this a million times
Thank you. I have been through hell recently, and internally an emotional wreck, but I have had few tears. This beautifully written and performed song brought out everything I needed to feel and I found myself a blubbering mess.
Thank you for writing this beautiful piece.
I can hear Tinuviel’s broken heart in your voice and the love for the Professor’s work in your words.
So rare is it that I am moved to tears.
I would applaud you if I could, though I fear my hands are busy hiding my face.
Amazing. Your work is among the finests I have heard.
From a fellow Tolkien & Arda fan, Maë Govannen, and my deepest congratulations to you, dear Eurielle.
I actually thought at first the lyrics had been written by the Professor (I did not know he had not).
The melody is very moving indeed, very sad and touching. All around a good job!
Namarië.
Incredible... No words for this masterpiece... The professor shall be proud.
You exceeded my wildest expectations Eurielle! Truly captured the emotions and poetic bittersweetness of Luthien's lament for Beren! They should make a Silmarillion movie and you should make the whole soundtrack in my opinion.
The simplicity of the musical arrangement and the clarity of the vocal delivery enable the listener to actually hear the lyrics. I love it.
The degree of strength and determination of Luthien and her undying and loyal Love to go to the beyond and ask for the Life of her beloved is incredible .That is what is so beautiful about this story: the degree of commitment and dedication to the other as signs of love .I want that and I want to give that .
What's truly amazing and leaves me flustered in every song you sing, and especially this one, is your wide voice range, that you use in such a harmonious way. It's really hard to master all those notes and fluidly strive through them like you do! The result is soft and powerful at the same time, like a classical soloist is trained to do. Thank you for embellishing this world Eurielle! You inspire me every day :)
+LifeLoveDreamMusic This is such a lovely comment, thank you so much!
The most beautiful song I have ever heard. No wonder Mandos was so moved to restore them back to life.
I have waited so long for this!! Thank you!!! I'm in tears!!! Please do a lament of when Luthien stood before Morgoth, lulling even a more corrupt soul than Sauron.
Not only is the music impressive, but I must take a moment to stress how fantastic the composition is as well. The meter, the rhythm, the vocabulary, the tasteful use of the poetic register and archaisms, all is worthy of the Professor. In an age when even "professional" poets no longer write like this, you deserve double commendation. Brava.
An absolutely breathtaking, moving song for the Lady Lúthien. It captures her beauty and the love between Beren and Lúthien indescribably well. Tolkien would be proud.
Damn it, this is literally one of the best songs I've ever heard!
And I'll tell you, i's a musical gourmet! But then even I was struck: and the execution, and (which is rare these days) the text is beautiful! Emotion would be even more and would be a masterpiece, no kidding, for centuries.
The only thing I can remember from a more or less capable comparison is "The Song of Arwen" ("Let the evening star rise above you").
This is beautiful. You truly capture the essence of the song, of Lúthien coming before Mandos and all the Valar of Arda for her love of Beren. The raw talent you present in this, Tolkien's ultimate expression of passion and sorrow unbound that is the essence of all of his Middle Earth, is truly astonishing and mesmerising to listen to. I am in awe of you
Their are no words in the English language that can describe how beautiful this is
Your voice is honestly not just "Beautiful voice" It tells stories , The emotions are just ... I can't describe I'm so fan of yours . Much love to you and to your music
Ohhh thank you! I'm so happy you're enjoying my music :)
You're mostly welcome love from Egypt 💕
Such a masterpiece, you honor Tolkien's work with this piece. Amazing writing and performance. Love your work!
There is a depth of solace, sadness, and sincerity in this that only difficulty is had in written expression. As high as dragon's fly, to the depths of abyssal plains, and with dying sparks in torrential winter. It is that class of emotion that is evoked, much like it is that spirit that listens while the ears hear.
I have never. Never. Never in this world heard such a masterpiece. It is so brilliant. When I had listened to it for the first time, it took me far away and back and forward to the Halls of Mandos. I could perfectly see Luthien in front of me... It was so sad and so beautifull dream....
Thanks you a lot, Eurielle, You have changed my life forever! Valar bless you!
Magnificent! Tolkien means a lot to me and the fact that you have made this song for characters as dear as Beren and Luthien is just magical! Thank you very much really! Your voice is incredible, the melody is beautiful and you are a genius!
Cada día amo más y más a Tolkien. ¿Cuanta belleza imaginaba ese hombre? Supera mi entendimiento.
The sorrowful song that moved to tears the gods themselves... Magnificent work. I have no words.
Incredible. Captures the hope, wonder, sorrow, and sheer grandeur of the tale of Beren and Luthien. I am in awe every time I read or hear the story, and I can say the same about this song. Well done
This is awesome! Thank you Eurielle. Since you started with some Silmarillion music, may I ask for a song of Maglor? It would be great to have one. Maybe a fragment of Noldolantë or one when he is wandering by the shores. Anyway, keep making beatiful art as this one!
Simply amazing. Although i go with "there Was a reason for no lyrics from Tolkien", probably to further deepen the Meaning of how special and otherwordly Luthiens song Was, i daresay this must come pretty close. It is a fine line between sorrowful, hopeful, love and mystical like a song with words woven by the valar. Truly an amazing work and i Can listen to this endlessly. Thank you so much for sharing this with the World! And please keep up making such amazing songs For Tolkiens masterpiece.
The lyrics of this song are something else.
Precioso. Lloro cada vez que leo Beren y Luthien y lloro con este canto .
Very awesome. Very well done. I love your voice, and I admire your disclaimer. As a Tolkien fan, and all that Middle Earth entails, I respect the character of Luthien as though she's "out of reach."
Your effort here is faithful to intent, and your voice ethereal to give us that glimpse into the meeting between her and Mandos. I was moved, I was emotional; I felt your heart, and the echo of Luthien's pleas. You definitely did this justice.
I could have listened to this, were it even 20 minutes in length, and resonated with the offering that she presented.
If that's really the song that Luthien sang to Mandos, I completely understand why he was so moved he brang Beren back to life. This song is perfect.
This song brings the Tolkien Legendarium to justice. Your voice is purely beautiful and I hope you make more videos of you singing songs from Middle Earth.
You did it again, Eurielle! You brought my heart to Middle-earth!
The first thing I thought as I listened to this was, "Hmm... wow. This... she did this justice. This is... HER RANGE OMG!"
You didn't even have any music or lyrics to go by? I tip my hat to you as a composer! I have composed a few things myself, but none as worthy as this.
*adds it to my Eurielle Middle-earth playlist*
Your voice is breathtakingly beautiful, and you bring justice to songs of middle earth.. I can feel middle earth come to life listening to you sing.
Merci beaucoup pour ce chant si émouvant, il m’a tant émue que j’en ai la chair de poule… je pense que vous avez fait là un sublime hommage à Tolkien et au couple que forment Beren et Lúthien… merci ❤️😭
Your music is a gift to the world.
This is a song that brought me to tears, and that this Song, Would be a wonderful Wedding song, a means of Eternal Binding of One's ❤️ and Love, and the Cherished Love, Lúthîen was a Beautiful woman, and Beren being one who was a prime example of a Noble Mortal who laid his life for his Love, that means eternity
Eurielle, The Song has the Emotional passionate and Tugging at the Heart Strings
Bravo Eurielle! Do you have a CD with all your Tolkien inspired songs? If not, you simply must produce such a work and make it available for us. Art like yours is rare, special and beautiful. I had chills from the opening note.
One of the most beatiful song I have ever heard, I have cried in mid of it.
It is a fact that all of the humans have a partner, & he/she awaits you for starting a lovley story
Thanks for this music
Eurielle is very talented but this song really is something else. The performance, the lyrics, and the vivid evocative images it conjures - It is just a masterpiece. I echo another user’s comment in saying that this is a true homage to Tolkien. Surely he is smiling proudly somewhere beyond the veil.
I've never been one for love stories, but in this one, I can rightly feel her anguish, and it's so very well portrayed. Thanks for this well-done work.
CHILLS! Eurielle, thank you so much for making music like this. Each and every song is a gem. I can feel Luthien's sorrow and yearning in your voice.
I cried. I can't know if it would have moved Mandos, but it was very, very moving. You surely did well. Thank you for these feelings.
I was actually planning on reading Beren and Luthien this fall, you have reaffirmed this choice for me. I love your music, and I love this song. keep going :D
Thank you so much. I can't find the right words to praise this. Only an artist like you can give voice to Lúthien. I kneel before thee. Greetings from Argentina.
Ta voix est magnifique .... Elle submerge par les émotions qu'elle transporte... Même lorsque que le silence retombe j'ai l'impression d'encore en entendre l'echo. C'est juste sublime .
Oh oui !
If ever a movie comes out with the story of luthien and beren, this version of the song MUST be used
For a song not meant to be expressed by mortal words and tunes, this is close enough to perfection that I challenge anyone to say it can be done better.
You did good, kid. I have read the Silmarillion more than once and I didn't realize Tolkien didn't write these words until I read the video description. Well done.
Wow! Your upper and lower range are so beautiful, but completely different. Your upper range sounds pure and sweet like a child, and your lower register is open and rich and dark.
Such a soulful, wonderful song! The melody, your moving beautiful voice, the words... it is truly a masterpiece and touches the heart. When I read the Silmarillion I always feel that there are still so many songs to be created and sung... songs that still sleep in the dephts of some creative artist's immagination like your's ❤
Your voice is incredible! I love your Tolkien music. Your angelic voice fits so well in his world. You really do his words and world justice and I don't say that lightly! This was incredible and I absolutely adored those low notes! You have such incredible range (:
Almost heartbreaking beautiful ... you did the best job that was possible for a human being. I'm glad you accepted the challenge
