"Song of Durin" appeared in The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, but it was only a poem when Tolkien wrote it. The music for this song was inspired by Clamavi De Profudis' melodic interpretation of Tolkien's poem. Look them up!

Special shout out to all of my patrons who make these videos possible.
In this video, Gimli finds the ruins of Moria and Balin's Tomb and begins to sing "Song of Durin". As he sings, he is joined by the dwarves of legend: Thorin, Kili, Fili, and Bofur. Also known as Geoff, Geoff, Geoff, and oh by the way just in case you were wondering also Geoff. Thanks for watching!

If Geoff had been in the Fellowship, the Balrog would have forgotten all about attacking and just followed him around begging him to autograph its merch.
What a kiss ass!
Don't bother the "Talent", Balrog! 😁
@DTA-Music 😂😂😂
maybe that's why Geoff sees himself as boring - because with him the trilogy would have been very boring: all the Orks, Gollum and all other creatures in line for an autograph
@@sarahborzelli_Castellineicieli Would have been a totally different movie LOL
The fact you started and ended the song with Gimli, alone in Balin's tomb... Just painful. Well done, sir
Beat me to it!
It's really next level to actually show (not tell) a story with the cinematography!
Well done!
A Geoff trifecta: a story song, all the dwarves and all the ranges. Beautiful!
Thank you!
❤
What a beautiful cap to the tale that began in Misty Mountains with four warriors about to embark on an epic journey, continued in I See Fire with them grimly preparing to face near-certain doom and hoping they will not be forgotten, and now ended with Gimli singing of his people's glorious history, his ancestors (those same four lost warriors) appearing with him as ghosts or memories - as if their prayer to be remembered has been fulfilled.
I had tears in my eyes from the first verse on. Gorgeous. The harmonies and arrangement are just perfect, but I also want to shout out that stunning instrumental track. I keep hearing so many fascinating details (the clever use of forge tools and weapons as instruments sprinkled throughout, for one). The dynamic flow of the arrangement keeps what could be a repetitive song in constant movement and feels like proper storytelling.
As an enormously passionate LOTR fan, I deeply appreciate the thoughtfulness you put towards these "dwarfish" covers, Geoff. Although this finishes out the trilogy of Middle Earth covers in a satisfying way, I wouldn't say no to more covers in this world since you do such great justice to it.
Well Said! ❤
He still hasn't done The Last Goodbye...
The vocal range of this man is one of a kind. His voice is so dang smooth and raw.
Well, few of a kind. Tim Foust is also a bass singer with an awesome range. My love of Tim is what lead me to find Geoff some years ago. Now they just have to share my love!
These full costume videos are so cool. It’s easy to forget it’s all the same person
It's all thanks to my incredibly bland face. It's like the perfect blank canvas 😉
@@GeoffCastellucci bland! gorgeous more like :P
@@GeoffCastellucci🤣😂❤️
@@GeoffCastellucci You have some suitable company that rents out theater dresses? It would be quite expensive to actually buy all the set dressing and clothes for your videos.
@@perwestermark8920 What makes you think this isn't his own wardrobe?
One more comment : I love how much effort was put not just to sound but also look true to original source material by Tolkien ! KUDOS to Kathy, Geoff, Eli, Rick, Layne and Tony and everyone that was involved ! We saw the hard work that went into this video in the BTS. You guys are awesome !
🥰
Yes! Without set design, wardrobe, and makeup, that wouldn't happen. (Former theatre kid here)
Eli's work on the lighting really added to the mood, too! The more I watch, the more details I appreciate ❤️
Geoff: I don't comment on your videos much, but I had to this time. I'm almost 70 and I've been bringing Tolkien to life for various audiences since the 1970s. Your rendition of this song is without equal. Tolkien would be proud. Melon, namarie.
You said to blame Kathy for this one, so I will! THANK YOU KATHY for all of your hard work with the costumes, and the organization, and the helmet, and the directions, and making this guy not be boring! (And thank you Geoff for a stunning performance and a beautiful arrangement).
The two of you are a powerful combination, and I hope nobody makes the mistake of standing in your way!
Yes!! Thank you Kathy!! Thank s.... The whole Team!! ❤🫂
Ty Kathy and team!
❤❤❤
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I love the ones she is more in charge of... Geoff doubts himself too much, when she does more it is beautiful.
No one can convince me that Geoff isn't a LotR nerd now. His details are so accurate and he puts so much care into his video creation to not be a fan. Thanks for all the details and respect for the movies Geoff 👏
The dwarves are back!! The set, the singing!! Everything is just amazing!! Those facial hairs definitely took a lot of works!! And Gimli's nose!! Thank you for taking so much effort to create this one!! ❤❤
Unglaublich.So wunderschön. Geoff übertrifft sich wieder einmal. Da stimmt aber auch alles.Danke, ❤❤❤
I love this rendition of "The Song of Durin." It's kinda hooked me. At random times during the day, I suddenly want to listen again! It's a solemn, beautiful tale of a people from their beginning to the wait for Durin to walk the world again.
I did that again.
It's incredible how I found all of Geoff's content literally a few days ago and now I can't get enough of it. Music is such a powerful medium to move so many people in countless ways... A true masterpiece 💛
Try his group Voiceplay. You get hooked on them too
@@DarleneCheatham oh I know, I'm already obsessed
That was my Geoff experience also
Ditto
Welcome to the rabbit hole!
I’m not crying. My eyes are just sweating.
This is the kind of art that we get when passionate fans truly care about the material. Thank you Geoff for such amazing work with LOTR music I felt like I was truly in middle earth listening to Gimli. Tell the story of Durin
Can I suggest it would be amazing to hear the song that Aragon and Legolas sing for the passing of Boromir
Yes
I'm going to listen to this on repeat for the rest of the day. Sound therapy.
Edit 3 hours later: It's actually working.
It's the first video to my new playlist category "Jacky's Lullabies". Which I need to go through the rest of my playlist and add my other lullabies to it.
These are songs I listen to with my sleep headphones on repeat when I'm laying down relaxing or going to sleep. Which one depends on what my brain wants to listen to. They are songs that clear my mind and settle my body so I have a more restful sleep.
So far besides this one.....
Voiceplay....
In The Hall of The Mountain King, Classical Chaos, Hide and Seek, Dragonborn Comes, Halo. Be Prepared (when it's released next week).
Geoff....
Ain't No Sunshine, Rains of Castemere, Unshaken, I See Fire.
Pattycake....
Villains Haunted Mansion, You're The One With The Problem (Genshin Impact).
Other...
Redemption, Immersion (both Syts Piano), Light of Seven (Game of Thrones-Silva Screen Records).
Yeah. Not your typical lullabies but those bore me. Gotta listen to what I love and want to listen to over and over and over and etc.
When I heard Clamavi De Profundis do this song, I knew I needed a Geoff cover. It's everything I hoped for.
Likewise. They also do awesome renditions of Last Goodbye, When The Hammer Falls and Diggy Diggy Hole. All their dwarf songs are amazing.
Been waiting a few years. Finally!
That was the first we heard, and the best, but now it has been matched! 😃
In a generation of such contention, music still unites us. Thank you, Geoff, for being a Peacemaker in a troubled time.
If I remember right, the other members of the Fellowship didn't understand how glorious Moria had once been or why the Dwarves were still so obsessed with the place long after it was lost, but even Legolas was touched when Gimli sang this song in the book. Hearing Geoff sing it so beautifully here, it's not hard to see why. (Or why Galadriel understood its importance to Gimli when they met her later in Lothlorien--she remembered seeing it all in person.)
Mr. Castellucci, to do this you either have to really LOVE dressing up and being on stage or you have to really understand that your fans are super nerds (that's a compliment) who want to be able to live that life through you. Either way, I have to respect you.
I'm 100% certain that it's both.
I first heard Geoff when he sung "I See Fire" and was amazed at his vocal range. This video and his range still amazes me.
Ich liebe seinen Gesang, solo und mit Voice Play
Thank you!
I swear this man's voice is going to be the death of me. HOW, HOW CAN THIS ONE MAN BE SO TALENTED!!!!!!! I am now convinced that these acapella singers are not human, definitely not this guy. This is taking me places I did not know about. Thank you Mr. Castellucci for your voice and your talent, I need more.❤🔥❤
Amazing as the Clamavi de Profundis version is, I like Geoff's version better. There's more heart in it, somehow. This isn't a choir singing an epic of some long-lost king. These are the ghosts of the past, singing with hope for the future, and all of this is real to them. They remember, and their memories are bittersweet. They feel joy for what was, sorrow for all that has ceased to be, and hope for what might yet be reborn.
Geoff enchanted me again and transported me to a magical location of a bygone era.
This journey began in the shadows of the Misty Mountains and continued with the melodies of I See Fire and now I am here in the depths of Moira. Tolkien's tales and poems come to life and become reality, and memories live forever.
Five beautiful voices ( Yes, I know it's only one! ) Slowly melt into each other and build a harmony that even the tiniest speck of dust in Khazad-Dûm can shake.
The background music is amazing! Starting with the sound of soft drops of water, which nevertheless fall so sharply into the lake of silence of memories and the metallic sounds that evoke the sound of swords daggers bards, the mystical sound of strings and drums...As it all slowly unfolds and melts into one.
There is a lot of feeling in this beautifully constructed song and memories... memories of warriors...
I'd love to hear more...
And the view is really impressive!
The background, the lighting, the costumes, the make-up and the great direction deserve special thanks!
Now I don't want to list names, but everyone did a fantastic job!
Thanks for this masterpiece!
One voice to rule them all,
one song to find them,
one video to bring them all,
and in the algorithm bind them.
Beautiful masterpiece. Thank you for all your hard work.
Geoff calling to us from the halls of Moria🔥🔥🔥
Geoff's vocal range makes him a one-man choir. Amazing!
THESE GUYS ARE SO TALENTED! Gimli is sooooooo handsome 😍
Seriously, though, with a void as deep as the abyss below the Bridge of Khazad-Dûm, these dwarf tunes are right in your wheelhouse, Geoff. But not only because of your deep voice, also because of your supremely incredible ability to take fairly repetitive songs and to breathe new life into them, changing them subtly here and there, taking our ears and brains and hearts on a journey through Middle Earth itself through song. ⛰ ♥
I am a Tolkien loving geek girl and I am so glad for the day youtube recommended Geoff’s version of Misty Mountains Cold. When the teaser came out for I See Fire I became a Patron. This song and video are a chef’s kiss addition to the Dwarves saga. The vocals, the arrangement, setting, costuming and overall storytelling are so on point. There are so many amazing little details. Even more I love the honor this gives to both Tolkiens work and the original arrangement by Clamavi De Profundis. The hard work and heart shine through.
The announcement of a cover by Geoff on one of the most beautiful songs from Lord of the Rings is the promise of a beautiful day!Happy listening to everyone! Namarië !
That switch to 6/8ths was a really nice touch.
That's part of the original as well. Super cool idea to break up the potential monotony of a longer song like this.
Once again, you have done what you do best with this song, and I am not only referring to singing it very, very low. I have always enjoyed Clamavi De Profundis’ version of this song, and I am in love with the ways that you have taken inspiration from their delivery and performance. But the thing you really do best is tell the story. I see and hear and feel all the emotion, all the loss and the hope, the wistfulness and the joy, in every aspect of what you have done with this.
You bring Tolkien’s exquisite lyrics to life for me in a way I’ve never experienced before, I understand and feel them so much more deeply. I can’t help thinking, this is what Tolkien meant for us to feel when we hear these words.
And then of course, I break down and cry for a minute, cause how else am I supposed to react to that thought? Thank you, once again, for breaking and filling my heart in ever evolving ways.
❤❤
Geoff's costumes are spot on, and harmonizing is incredible, as always.
And Bilbo and Frodo's Birthday is tomorrow, so this was the perfect time for a song like this!
That ending was POWERFUL
At this time 684 comments. Whew. I was here for the premiere, but was at work. I really couldn't listen well, but I did take the time to introduce my regular customer and his son to Geoff and VP. I share with all that I can. I can't help it. Everyone should know this talent and joy!
It's like listening to the warmest hug you've ever had. Incredible.
What a wonderful idea to have Gimli joined by the others to give tribut.
Thank you for sharing your amazing talents with the unworthy.
Such an amazing arrangement of this great song. I think this will break more than one reactor. Huge shout out to Kathy for making this such a treat.
So glad I got to be here for the public premiere. Also glad that Daryl got to put on a dwarf costume at last. 😂
HOW DID I END UP HERE?
Ah got it: Geoff brought me here with his absolutely stunning arrangement; starting with the lonely droplets of water and the mysterious, spherical background music that immediately catapulted me into the depths of Moira, followed by the lonely voices, each of which surprises me with its unique beauty (yes despite coming all from the same guy) that finally blend beautifully into each other and enchant me with their ethereal sound.
The subtle sounds in the background (like the metallic hammering) perfectly capture the aura of Khazad-Dûm, emphasizing the vastness and splendor of the halls. The instrumentation swells further, adding epic drums and strings to tell the story of the past glorious days and the splendor of it. The sounds of forging swords and drawn blades paint heroic times of the dwarven folk on the canvas.
Finally, everything returns to the present reality of the abandoned place, the singing and music reverting to the sadness and loneliness, but still retaining a sense of hope and a hint of glory. Like no other, you really know how to create an epic atmosphere and take me on a journey with your music! I'm sure that's exactly what Tolkien wanted us to feel when he wrote that poem!
I love your commitment to beards, hair and costumes and the accurate recreation of the set. Kudos to Kathy as well! The backdrop looks great and Eli did a great job with the lighting!!! The beam of light coming from the top corner and the colors changing - gorgeous! Also, the way you make the other "dwarf ghosts" appear and fade out is brilliant!
Thank you, Geoff, for another masterpiece!
Pros of listening to Geoff with headphones: free deep tissue massage delivered through my ear canal.
Cons of listening to Geoff sing any Hobbit songs: desperate need to re-read my favourite fanfic. Again.
So basically only pros, delivered by another pro.
❤😂
What are the cons?
The first time I heard Clamavi De Profudis sing this song, I fell in love. I've never thought I would find the version I like even more. But this is phenomenal. Instead of a song about a distant, legendary past, this feels more relevant and immediate, with much clearer emotions. While, as always, I'm truly impressed by Geoff's voice and range, and I absolutely love costumes, I think the interpretation of the lyrics and the melody makes it great. It is beautiful, and I know I will be listening to it many times in the future.
"The dwarves of legend......... also known as Geoff, Geoff, Geoff.......and also Geoff".
Yes. Some folks DO need that clarified. 😂😂😂😂
Again, as someone unfamiliar with the original, you are again introducing me to music I wouldn't listen to otherwise, and a thank you from the bottom of my heart for that. You are truly a gift to our small world of music.
Geoff, Jeoph, Jeff, Goff and Daryl.
@ronsbrat525 apparently, per Geoff's description, they're not in this one 🤷♀️
But that's only 4 Geoffs. Who is the fifth guy? 🤔🤣
@@Agnes_EvaR Gimli?
@@karenponchak5304 Yes. But you know I'm just kidding. Right?
When i first saw the short for this video, I thought it was a freaking movie trailer realizing this is going to be better then a movie.
This is story-telling at it's best! For me, telling a story through song always makes it more memorable, with the melody and rhyming making it easier to remember the story itself. Geoff is just so good at this, it's not even fair. Not only do we get the beautiful arrangement and instruments, but Geoff brought back not only the dwarves from Misty Mountains and I See Fire, but added Gimli into the mix (although Gimli appears to have been working out quite a bit!). The dwarves haven't lost their touch with a song!
While I See Fire is still my favorite video on Geoff's channel, this one is not far behind, and from a story-telling perspective, is a little better IMO. But all of the dwarven songs have been wonderful, and this video just adds to their splendor.
Kudos to everyone involved in the making of this video - Geoff, Kathy, Layne, Tony, Eli, Rick, and everyone else who helped out in creating this amazing video - and let's not forget Tommy, who supervised Geoff as he worked in the garage!
This interpretation of Song of Durin, it’s a gift from heaven... with so much beauty, I don’t stop listening to it and it gives me emotion, chills, sometimes the desire to cry so much it’s magic... it’s still a masterpiece... ♥
This just blew me away. The authenticity of the lyrics and sound were perfect. Someone could, and should, build a whole film around you singing the entire Lord of the Rings Trilogy's lyrics. Thank you.
Or we could just get him to narrate the whole of it (a couple chapters at a time).
@@karenponchak5304That would be absolutely 👌!
@@karenponchak5304 Good idea!❤
Well, this took the number one spot on my list of Geoff songs within two verses. So amazing! Words fail me. SO MUCH FEELING listening to this. This one is going to be played on REPEAT a LOT!
And bonus, now we know what Geoff might look like as a Ginger! (Gingers rock!)
💙
@@DravenGal
Yes!! I know what you mean! This song it gives me an undescribable feeling! It's so ...so ... It's amazing!!
@@rahelmeyer2750 It's almost like having delicious chills and being nice and warm at the same time! 💙
The only small detail that reveals this is indeed one person is head movement. Absolutely remarkable amazing performance.
I LOVE THESE GUYS!
It was the 4 "ghost" dwarves that brought me to this channel. (Misty Mountain). I have been grateful to them ever since. This song with Gimli is also amazing!
Oh, and those perks on the Patreon are really incredible!
I LOVE THESE GUYS!! How did you ever convince such a handsome dwarf like Gimli to come and join in for the fun on this one?? More dwarfs please!!
This song gets better every time I listen to it, and it will be going into my playlist as soon as I can manage it! Thanks, Geoff -- this was a masterpiece to round out the "trilogy"!
Yet another example of incomparable excellence.
But then, i’ve never seen anything less from Geoff.
Well done, sir. Very well done.
I have often heard judges on AGT, etc., say that a singer made them get "shivers/goosebumps." I don't think I experienced that feeling until listening to this rendition of this song. Kudos and bravo, Geoff. (By the way, I'm almost 72, so I've waited a long time for the goosebumps.)
While it seems Geoff belongs in this time, are we not so grateful he is here with us today for fabulousness shared? Smashingly beautiful❤
All I, as a teeny-weeny bit of the masses, can get out is a blissful sigh.
I am deeply touched by the pure BEAUTY of your singing. Your performance is PERFECT.
I am completely submerged.
I'm just going to ENJOY now and wait until the magic effect has worn off.
A grateful THANK YOU to the master of musical-artistic seduction. 😊
Such a touching, beautiful, and sad Song of Durin. The water drops made me feel that Moria was weeping. Geoff - just wanted you to know how much I love your music.
so the true story in your songs is not that you are a bass cover singer but that you have an incredible range. Maybe deeper than any others we know but your high range is so far above what i would expect.
MY VOTE WON ON PATREON!!
Definitely worth subscribing to Geoff Castellucci himself and Voiceplay 👌🔥
we need more Clamavi de profundis votes!
Роскошно! Как и ожидалось!
Подозреваю, скоро Geoff сможет озвучивать всех персонажей целого фильма.
This song immediately catapulted itself to top of my favorites list. And Gimli is the best dwarf ever!!!!!!! MORE DWARVES PLEASE!!!!
A time or two? Oh, you understate yourself, my good fellow.
I'm going to listen to this all damned day!
So solemn the tale of the dwarves is. I have listened to this so many times since it came out on Patreon, and it makes me cry with the harmonies and the sadness. A true masterpiece. This has become my favorite song from the dwarven songs.
Oh Geoff! You’ve worked so hard to get ‘High and Dry’ out of my TOP 3!
I never thought this moment would come. But! It's an incredible creation: at once soft and hard, refined and radiating elemental strength... ahhh. I fell over like the pillars of Moria.
i absolutely love that Clamavi de Profundis is getting the attention and recognition they deserve, both have such an amazing composition!
Восхищаюсь вашим талантом, Джефф! ❤❤❤ сегодня был очень тяжелый, трудный, долгий день, но заканчивается он просто волшебно, благодарям Вам! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I do love his voice. So much talent 💜💜
I am a simple man. I see Geoff post a video i click it.
Oh my god, I've been asking for this song forever, thank you Geoff for covering my favorite LOTR song!! It's so good I'm legit tearing up, thank you!!!
9.5k views with 5k likes. Crazy ratio 😭, but Geoff deserves it 🙌🏻
The only downside is that those of us who will be listening 4-5 times today alone cannot like every time.
By my authority as a totally insignificant internet stranger, I declare Geoff Catellucci official voice of the Dwarves. All Dwarves.
I second the motion!🔥❤
I've been listening to his songs all day, and now this is what UA-cam has released. This is a wonderful day. Thank You Geoff!
Another Banger from Geoff, Didn't expect anything less from his magnificent voice and costumes
HOW DID I END UP HERE? 😉
Well, since I'm here, I might as well say something. This is a stunning arrangement, and your storytelling (which is always top-notch) has very much ratcheted up with this one.
I'm not a major Tolkien nerd, (it took me until well into my 30's before I was able to appreciate the books), but I recognized the story you were presenting in this video straight away and found it to be a profoundly moving interpretation.
Bravo, Geoff, bravo! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Such a wonderful arrangement of this beautiful song! The harmonies are like wrapping yourself in a cozy blanket. Storytelling is once again a 10/10, Geoff!
I love the other two Hobbit covers but this is my favourite. The 5 part harmony is sublime. I especially love the beautiful, almost angelic tone near the end when you sing 'Mirrormere'. So atmospheric. A wonderful arrangement. Thank you and your wonderful voice so very much.
Один и тот же человек и в каждом образе - новый, другой! Потрясающе!
Epic dwarfs à la Geoff harmonizing amazingly.
❤️🎶🔥🎶❤️
If Geoff had been in the Fellowship, Sauron would've surrendered.
Love seeing Clamavi de Prufundis' tunes getting the recognition!!!
After the song was finished, your audience sat in silence.
After 5 seconds of total silence, a man stood up and clapped slowly. Another stood and started clapping after the first. Soon after, dozens and dozens of audiences stood and join the gesture. Before long the theatre was filled with thunderous clapping sound and audiences cheering.
That first man would've been me. Marvelous performance Geoff, well done.
I am at work and I had to stop listening to this because it was about to make me cry. Well done sir!!!
A golden voice, an impeccable sense of taste, and countless other talents and hard work that went into this...!!!
Geoff, thank you so much for yet another masterpiece you've gifted us!!!!
Gimli's beard is epic!
I've just got one word for this performance and that's AWESOME. Thanks Geoff and your wife.
Powerful and haunting. This one has clung to the edges of my mind and I'll find myself replaying it at random times.
I am in awe at the amount of talent and dedication displayed to bring this video to life.
The costumes!
Everything else too, but between the different tones and intonations in the vocals and how dramatic the costumes are, I had to check to really believe that this was a solo act. And yes, it is heartbreaking that Gimli starts alone, and then is accompanied by Fili and Kili and other fallen dwarves, and then... alone.
Not only is your voice incredible; but the creativity of this video is phenomenal!
I really don't have the words to do this justice. Just hauntingly beautiful. Thank you for all the hard work that went into this. We appreciate it more than you know. This arrangement and vocal performance are a whole new level of... well just amazing-ness. I'll be listening to this on repeat for the foreseeable future.
Geoff slayed it! I think my beard grew an additional 6 inches while watching this. He has the best voice I've heard in years!!!
I'm reading the Lord of the Rings right now. This is perfect timing.
When I was young and first falling in love with reading the Lord of the Rings, I would skip over the italicized parts.
It wouldn’t be until many years later when I discovered the Robert Inglis read audiobooks (and back then it was dozens of cassette tapes) that I realized how much I’d been missing by skipping over Tolkien’s poetry.
Thanks so much for making this!
Geoff, I love it when you do Tolkien songs. I loved every one of them, and this one is incredible. I would love to see you perform the song. "Into the West" which was done by Annie Lexxox. You would do that one so beautifully. Thank you for everything you do for your fans, Mr. Castellucci. You are the greatest.
Ok, this was a "wish" (or better, a "dream") of mine, and now it's granted... And is even better than I imagined. I'm a HUGE Tolkien fan, and this version of the song had me in tears less than 1'30" in. And now it's on repeat... ❤
Thank you a lot for this. This goes straight up there with its two brothers from "The Hobbit".
What a [__] beauty. ❤
What a voice! It takes you to where he is singing about.Thank you so much, another great version!
It's a masterpiece, plain and simple!!
I love the Gimli + ghosts concept.
Having a new dwarf added is great, can't have enough dwarfs,
though we do need at least one more dwarf song, Geoff 😁
My Tolkien living heart thanks you for bringing these songs to life ❤
As much as I love your deep deep bass voice, hearing you sing in the upper reaches of your register is always such a treat
I love what you did with this and the way the music and voices flow through the piece! 🥰 I am so appreciative of the amount of effort you put in your videos. What you achieve with a few dedicated helpers is amazing; you would think you had a large crew behind you. Hats off to everyone involved! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I love the red beard on that handsome dwarf Gimli.
Finally, we have the full Dwarven repertoire of music! I LOVE your voice Geoff!!!
I'm in awe!!! How can one person harmonize with himself so well!?!?!? Is there a word better then Epic!?!? I'm betting the ring wraiths are like, There's only 5 of him and 9 of us, wtf!
🤣😂
I can only imagine the hours that went into this: arranging, lating the teacks, costuming, makeup, staging
.. and *then* editing❤ I'll have to listen to this a lot more, and not just because I'm hoh. Thank you so much, it was a literally dreamy song
