Your Tolkien songs are always breathtaking but this one was something else entirely. For Aragorn was "an image of the splendour of the Kings of Men in glory undimmed before the breaking of the world" and this song tells of how his return is similar to when Elendil and the Faithful were borne out of the West even as the Isle of Numenor fell, and founded the Kingdoms of Arnor and Gondor to usher in a new age and yet Aragorns coronation marked the true end of the time of the elves and the beginning of the Dominion of Men. Without the elves or Istari, magic departed from Middle Earth entirely which I have always found to be a bittersweet truth. Thank you as always for another amazing song P.S. I am amazed that the entire song is in I think Quenya right? If not it's Sindarin? Both of which are exceedingly difficult to perform with so wow and thank you!
Aragon, in that his kingship is shown by miraculous healing, is an image of Jesus. 1The spirit of the Lord is upon me, because the Lord hath anointed me: he hath sent me to preach to the meek, to heal the contrite of heart, and to preach a release to the captives, and deliverance to them that are shut up. 2To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God: to comfort all that mourn (Isaiah 61:1-2)
@@SATMathReview1234 Not exactly. Tolkien had taken much inspiration from Bible. But his works are works of art and not a copy or a substitute of Bible . Aragorn is not Jesus. Aragorn is a descendant from a long line of kings, first of which was blessed by good Vala (so basically by Eru himself). Aragorn is not a divine entity. He is a mortal Man, as a man should be in Tolkien's thought. And while JRR Tolkien's world is another world that exists apart from this sad reality. It is safe to say that this sad reality is in constant need of men like Aragorn. I imagine, this was crucial part of the original thought behind creating Aragorn.
@@SATMathReview1234 Not at all, Aragorn is an image of Nodens, of which Mr. Tolkien wrote about, the Healing King God, the basis of the Fisher King of the Arthurian Myths.
@@SATMathReview1234 Kings being able to heal was more of a general thing in Medieval Times and a reason why kings claimed that they had their power granted to them by God.
"One day, your path will lead you there, and the Tower Guard will take up the call, "The King of Gondor has returned. And I will have been honored to have called you my brother, my captain, before you were my king."
A little story, before Mr. J.R.R. Tolkien died in the 70s, my grandparents, who were both children of World War I era parents, my great-grandfather being born in 1899, both read Lord of the Rings when it was just hitting regular publication before the new additions and edits and everything else. We lost my grandfather in 1980. Though she never talked about it a lot, I think the story really stayed with her. We would lose her at 86 and 2014. Before then we took her to see the return of the King, she was never big on modern movies, to begin with, but when she heard that little snippet of Aragorn's coronation song, sitting with us. I could hear her audibly gasp, and she sat there quietly with tears rolling down her face. My friends and I were a little shocked and moved as well, being invested in the film series as well as the books. She said “You know your grandfather was one of the men of the West? He’s waiting for me now so that one day we may enjoy our time together in the days of the King ” Coming from a deeply traditional family and knowing what she meant in regard to our faith…. that moment has never left me.
The aunt and uncle I was closest to read the Lord of the Rings aloud to each other many times and were instrumental in my love for the works, as well as for mythology in general. And I do tend to place Tolkien's work as something in the space occupied by Homer and Hesiod. The depth and also the contradictory variations really have a proper mythic feel. That, I think, was what they helped instill in me
Sam : But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. Because they were holding on to something. Frodo : What are we holding on to, Sam? Sam : That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.
That is a good one, I never realized that before! I think the lyrics fit Aragorn regardless since he sings them in the context of renewing the lineage and the promise of Elendil (hence him repeating Elendil's oath), but the fact that they both came from sea is another interesting parallel between Aragorn and Elendil.
Yeah Hah! Love it. Another parallel can be drawn from his lineage. He is of the Dunedain who are a group of Numenorian descent. Numenor was a great island nation West of Middle Earth destroyed in the Second Age where they travelled east across the sea and landed on Middle Earth. (If you know this already then I apoligise)
Tolkien created a whole world with Gods, Races and cultures with their own history and mythology, languages and so much more. He hasn't lost his mind or creativity despite having witnessed the horrors of World War 1. What a legend!
Quite the opposite, in fact. Fighting in one world war and closely covering the second actually gave him the insight and the understanding of human nature from which his stories came.
He didnt create a World, friend He created a mythological past of the real world. Middle earth is not a fantasy place, its just eurasia in the distant past
@@SonofKalas22 They are Scions of Ilùvatar for born in his thought and they are the powers of the world: they are part of it and Arda has become part of them, each in his own natural domain.
There is only one God in Middle-earth, but apart from that you are right. Tolkien's world is just beautiful, and it inspired an entire genre of literature, films and games. Truly a legend.
@@jacthing1 but this IS the whole thing. Aragorn's prophecy (also adapted as a stand-alone song by CDP) is unrelated and figures here in Quenya because Elendil's Oath is otherwise very short.
SINGING IT< was 100% VIggo's idea, so someone had to compose the music in like 2002ish for that scene. That alone makes VIggo legendary in the TOlkien-verse.
That, and I also gotta say that Eowyn singing an adapted piece from Beowulf during Theodred's funeral makes me cry every time. It's just such a beautiful thing, Beowulf was never meant to be sung, it was a spoken alliterative-verse poem yet it is so beautiful when sung and is completely appropriate for the Rohirrim given their, and particularly Tolkien's, Old English connection.
All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.
Not only is the singing wonderful, as per usual, but the COMPOSITION on this! Arwen singing the prophecy, then the chorus of ancestors joining in... such a brilliant way of doing this piece!
Seriously, Maglor has nothing on you guys, love the way you've been able to bring Tolkien's poetry to life. I always have to listen to your arrangements when I re-read the books
Rumor has it that @jarrettkwiatek2122 was never heard from again after posting this comment; bystanders heard a window breaking, then a very musical voice in their bedroom berating them in an unknown language, then them screaming, then total silence
Yeah I was captivated when I heard aragorn sing that first time. Wish we could've gotten to hear the whole thing with Arwen singing as well. But this is a fantastic version of it as well
This song resonates with me on such a deep level. I was planning on singing the oath on my wedding day. (I'm South African, engaged to an American) and this is my oath that I will love my new home, family, and country as I have my old one. That WAS the plan until I heard this incredible song. And now I'll be playing it as I walk down the aisle.
Dear Hearts, am sitting here and quietly crying..... for the sheer, aching beauty of the lyrical words, the sublime melodies, for the awe, strength, and humility of Aragorn and for Arwen's faith in her Beloved. Stunning work...thank you. All Love
You have no idea how your works have healed this poor boys heart in the dark days where his faith wanes in hollow sorrow. I owe so much to you for the joy your works bring to one’s such as I. May your days be blessed for the gifts time has left to present you and yours. Thank you.
I know we all love the work done here, but can we also appreciate the work Howard Shore did creating so many memorable leitmotifs to be drawn in to this rendition?
4:10 - I swear, this king on the left looks like Keanu Reeves😂 Huge respect to the creators for this peace of art! I'm your fan for almost 8 years)) Thank you so much for what you do! Keep it up!
Keanu Reeves is immortal, so maybe it's Elros, Elrond Half-elven's twin brother and the founder of the line of kings, and he lied about choosing to be a human instead of an elf? (because they half elves all had to choose species - although for some reason Elros's human descendants are human and can't be elves but Elrond's elf kids still get to choose elf or human) (Or wait maybe it's Ar-Pharazon roflmao rip (no rip?))
Tolkien is truly one of the greatest gift to literature by God. Even after Tolkien's death his magnum opus, his modern epic/saga truly feels timeless and immortal.
There is a sorrow that comes with old age.. you realize that you are watching the sands run down. All is ending, all the beauty you knew is now fading and there is no returning it. Your beloved has died and gone before you. You grieve for what has been lost and you remember that every generation is exactly as you are, now. We are born, we live for time and think we are immortal... but, then, those are around you grow old and you are too, grow old and the end is coming. For the first time in my life, I feel old. Very old. Time is the great master of everyone and everything, at least, here, on earth. I felt that poignant sorrow as you sung Arwen's part. So much has faded and failed.
Dear Santa, I know it's a bit early to message you, but this Christmas, I would be overjoyed if I could receive a "making-of" video of Clamavi De Profundis.

Jokes aside, the sight of a fresh upload from you folks never fails to brighten my day, especially when it's a song from Middle-earth.

Out of all the lotr songs and themes. Elendils oath was something I always loved the most and you guys were able to make it even better! I'm playing at my wedding!!!

Who are you guys????? this is so beautiful!!! not only the whole composition seems to come straight from the heart of Middle Earth, but the way you have interwoven Howard Shore's themes into it is amazing!!!! Made me cry.
This is what every Tolkien and Peter Jackson fan expects from any Lord of the rings themed medium: Being true to Tolkien's work, referencing PJ's movies and still creating something new. Good job!
Nice one! Maybe "A Elbereth Gilthoniel" as standalone song at some point? Would love to have it on its own instead of only as part of the Song of Eärendil.
I have cried every time I have listened to this, thank you for creating such a moving piece and weaving all these stories and memories together through the power of music. If ever I could imagine Ainulindalë ( the music of the Ainur), it would be like this
I’ve fallen in love with Tolkien’s works in recent years. Every time I hear this song I can’t hold in my emotions. Especially with my religious background, that first part of the song reminds me of Christ coming from the sea asking Peter to have faith and to come to him in the storm.
I am moved to the very core by this. The Oath of Elendil, as simple as it is, truly evokes the primeval power of a mythic reality Tolkien sought. Even if it is a work of fiction, its power is so strong that it has become the stuff of legend.
Absolutely sublime! I am always taken aback at just how much beauty there is in Tolkien's words, you all truly have a gift for bringing out the best in his work.
Gorgeous vocals, this is why I've been subbed to you guys for so long, your songs have rarely disappointed and this is another in my long list of songs to play throughout the days!
That was beautiful. Including the Riddle of Strider was a nice touch and having it sung by Arwen really elevated the song to make it about more than just Aragorn (which is kinda the point of his coronation).
What a beautiful wotld tolkien created , he took inspiration from the great war to end all wars. I have now got to watch this world all over again. Whats better is , i get to introduce my daughter to this world.
My favorite thing about the instrumental is the transition to the ending at 5:10; after Aragorn sang his oath, the scene directly after in the film, he tells the hobbits "My friends, you bow to no one," and that's when this part of the song plays.
Its always a treat to listen to these productions in languages created by Tolkien, they're extremely relaxing to listen to and make me feel an odd sense of nostalgia.
What these massive multibillion dollar international interests will never understand is the simple beauty of a word. In the word lies the love of Tolkien.
Recently the JWST rediscovered the farthest star ever, that's fittingly been named Eärendil from Tokien's work. I remembered this song when I heard about it, and found your guys' cover. Thank you.
Amazing, goosebumps all over. Thank you for this, and thank you JRR Tolkien for your fantastic creations. I retreated into middle earth during my hardest days, and that place quite literally saved my life. Long live King Elessar! May his days be long and blessed.
To me, 'The Lord of the Rings' marks the high water mark of Western culture - a culmination of all the remarkable artistic and creative energy of European civilization, the last great flash of beauty before the fall.
@@glenntungay5140 Fetishism of “Western culture” has always been associated with xenophobia, racism, or fascism. There is no such thing as “Western civilization.” It is used as a catch all term for “everything in history that I think is based and also cool.” It is a dog whistle for “Man, we white people made all the coolest stuff, had all the smartest thoughts, and wrote all the epicest books!” You demean yourself.
@@brucecrosby1981 Art from Europe can be awesome. I adore thé cathedrals. But see my previous comment. The man’s dog whistling fascism. And I think that’s the last thing Tolkien would have wanted his songs or writing to be associated with.
So glad they stuck with Vigo's version of the melody,I can't imagine it in my heart as any other than. Also, is that Kianu Reaves in the far left side of the Numenorian line haha! :D
Here is our special arrangement of J.R.R. Tolkien's "Aragorn's Coronation Song - The Oath of Elendil." We hope you enjoy it:)
Your Tolkien songs are always breathtaking but this one was something else entirely.

Without the elves or Istari, magic departed from Middle Earth entirely which I have always found to be a bittersweet truth.

Who are you guys????? this is so beautiful!!! not only the whole composition seems to come straight from the heart of Middle Earth, but the way you have interwoven Howard Shore's themes into it is amazing!!!! Made me cry.
Eru Iluvatar is crying so hard as to create another sea, right now. Just, stunning work.
What a magical coincidence. I was listening to this just a week ago. Truly, the king has returned.
This is what every Tolkien and Peter Jackson fan expects from any Lord of the rings themed medium: Being true to Tolkien's work, referencing PJ's movies and still creating something new.
Good job!
There is no one better than Clamavi De Profundis who brings Tolkien's work to life through music
This song is one of my favourites! So glad you decided to cover it 😊😊 at this point my music consumption is 75% Clamavi de Profundis lol
And just a month ago, at sunrise of May day, Aragorn entered the city and received the crown from Faramir, Frodo,then Gandalf. Beautiful.
Yeah they missed the opportunity to do it on 5/1/19 which is the date Aragorn was crowned but can’t get em all!
love the artwork too the charcoal and pencil work is fabulous
I've had this on repeat since it dropped an hour ago, can't get enough of it
Nice one!
Maybe "A Elbereth Gilthoniel" as standalone song at some point? Would love to have it on its own instead of only as part of the Song of Eärendil.
Oh yes please!!!
YES!!
YES
Namárië would also be wonderful to hear
Great idea to include the other poem and translate it into Quenya, too. That's such a grand gesture for Aragorn's coronation!
This very beautiful, divine even cried here dude, you guys are too much
This song is so beautiful
I have cried every time I have listened to this, thank you for creating such a moving piece and weaving all these stories and memories together through the power of music. If ever I could imagine Ainulindalë ( the music of the Ainur), it would be like this
Such a gorgeous arrangement and performance! And oh the goosebumps at the harmony at 2:45--and then the bass hits at 2:52--exquisite!
I’ve fallen in love with Tolkien’s works in recent years. Every time I hear this song I can’t hold in my emotions. Especially with my religious background, that first part of the song reminds me of Christ coming from the sea asking Peter to have faith and to come to him in the storm.
This song gives me gosebumps with how solemn and beautiful it is. This is a wonderful adaptation of the Professor's songs, as always with your works!
One of the all time greatest fictional monarchs, the benchmark against which others are to be judged. Thank you for this gift.
Middle earth is this world.history turned to legend.legend turned myth. its history covered by sands of time
I am moved to the very core by this. The Oath of Elendil, as simple as it is, truly evokes the primeval power of a mythic reality Tolkien sought. Even if it is a work of fiction, its power is so strong that it has become the stuff of legend.
Beautiful as always. Your music lights the world!
Absolutely sublime! I am always taken aback at just how much beauty there is in Tolkien's words, you all truly have a gift for bringing out the best in his work.
I feel like I'm disrespecting by using this to fall asleep. It's just so serene, my mind gradually calms down when listening to this.
I can't remember when was the last time I got this level shivers :D
Such a great song.
Gorgeous vocals, this is why I've been subbed to you guys for so long, your songs have rarely disappointed and this is another in my long list of songs to play throughout the days!
I’m convinced Tolkien was an angel sent by god to bestow true art onto humanity, not the only one of his time but one of them
Another incredible song, with some theme from the films, thank you all ❤
Approved by the man himself!
Man, the emotion i feel from this song is inspiring. It feels good to cry. Thank you for your contribution, this was magical.
I love how in the artwork of his ancestors two of them look like Christian Bale and Keanu Reeves lmao. Great composition and singing. Top-notch.
That was beautiful. Including the Riddle of Strider was a nice touch and having it sung by Arwen really elevated the song to make it about more than just Aragorn (which is kinda the point of his coronation).
I can't help but be in awe of this universe, wish this was real
What a beautiful wotld tolkien created , he took inspiration from the great war to end all wars. I have now got to watch this world all over again. Whats better is , i get to introduce my daughter to this world.
4:08 This is perfect.
You made something that I've been searching for, long ago, when I started my unexpected journey with Tolkien's world. Thank you so much😊❤
My favorite thing about the instrumental is the transition to the ending at 5:10; after Aragorn sang his oath, the scene directly after in the film, he tells the hobbits "My friends, you bow to no one," and that's when this part of the song plays.
Its always a treat to listen to these productions in languages created by Tolkien, they're extremely relaxing to listen to and make me feel an odd sense of nostalgia.
1:42 Really like this part
Does it have a name or its part of the oath?
@@nikolaleontijevic9536Its "Not everything is gold that does glitter"
What these massive multibillion dollar international interests will never understand is the simple beauty of a word. In the word lies the love of Tolkien.
The Dunedains. A superior and yet noble race of men. Even the elves were amazed at the feats they managed to accomplish.
Recently the JWST rediscovered the farthest star ever, that's fittingly been named Eärendil from Tokien's work. I remembered this song when I heard about it, and found your guys' cover. Thank you.
My eyes get watery when i remind my self of this scene in the movie and to think all of it was made coz Tolkien wanted to make a language
Amazing, goosebumps all over. Thank you for this, and thank you JRR Tolkien for your fantastic creations. I retreated into middle earth during my hardest days, and that place quite literally saved my life.
Long live King Elessar! May his days be long and blessed.
It did save mine too ...
Absolutely amazing as always! "Now come the days of the king!" (Quite literally for those of us in the UK.)
Shame King Charles III didn't have to fight Sauron to ascend to the throne
Truly something to have and cherish for the ages thank you Clamavi De Profundis for arranging and ensuring we can all enjoy.
I knew Aragorn was a necromancer, he can not only summon the army of the dead to fight for him, but also his ancestors to sing along with him,
This made me weep. But good tears. Oh my goodness this was beautiful. ❤️🔥
"Out of the Great Sea to Middle-earth I am come. In this place will I abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world"
-Elendil the Tall
I love how they included a verse for Arwen! Very emotional.
So about the ancestor on the left.. i didnt know Aragorn was a descendant of John Wick. That explains a lot.
lol yes
glad I wasn't the only one to notice
I came in the comments just to find this
God the nostalgia. Thank you.
I love how Howard Shore's timeless themes are woven into this composition!
This should've been in the movie! It's too AMAZING!
A perfect design for the song. I imagine this as a lost footage of the third film; Aragorn and Arwen's union and wedding in Minas Tirith.
As someone who spent a lot of their time singing in choirs, this brought tears to my eyes, this is so beautiful.
To me, 'The Lord of the Rings' marks the high water mark of Western culture - a culmination of all the remarkable artistic and creative energy of European civilization, the last great flash of beauty before the fall.
Sounds kinda fashy, pal
@@SentimentalFellaVA it's fascist to appreciate European culture?
Never apologize for your heritage
@@glenntungay5140 Fetishism of “Western culture” has always been associated with xenophobia, racism, or fascism. There is no such thing as “Western civilization.” It is used as a catch all term for “everything in history that I think is based and also cool.” It is a dog whistle for “Man, we white people made all the coolest stuff, had all the smartest thoughts, and wrote all the epicest books!” You demean yourself.
@@brucecrosby1981 Art from Europe can be awesome. I adore thé cathedrals. But see my previous comment. The man’s dog whistling fascism. And I think that’s the last thing Tolkien would have wanted his songs or writing to be associated with.
i’ve been waiting for this for forever 🙌🏼
Why are you guys not all over ABC Classic radio? The rest of the world is missing out on your fantastic music.
So glad they stuck with Vigo's version of the melody,I can't imagine it in my heart as any other than. Also, is that Kianu Reaves in the far left side of the Numenorian line haha! :D
