As if the Elves of Rivendell sang a lament to the passing of Thorin Oakenshield.
Goddamn right it is!
gives me the same vibes!
Exactly, what I thought.
Just Rivendell?
Thorin would be lucky to get the Rivendell elves to sing him a song. Dude wasn't famous for his ability to make friends.
Exactly

“And now we wait....”
Colm, loved your duet with Rachel. Also your channel is excellent. Thanks for all the great music 😊
Are we gonna get a nother duet with Rachel.
Santiana?
Same here, love your channel. Really loved your duet. The contrast of Rachel's and your version of Misty Mountains is amazing.
Why do I do that?
Whenever I open Rachel's recent videos: "there must be Colm's comment somewhere"
Whenever I open Colm's recent videos: "there must be Rachel's comment somewhere"
You both should made another duet soon I think..
This was stunning in every way, and I love the arrangement! You look straight out of Rivendell, of course.
Big fan of your channel, thank you for stopping by and for the kind words!
I second Rachel, your channel rocks my world and i try to spread the word of Bardcore everyday!
@@RachelHardy ok
Rachel Hardy well done u smashed this song love it and the Skyrim song u did as well u smashed that as well.
@@RachelHardyyou did well. Keep up the great work. Do you ever think about singing other songs from Lord of the rings ?
It’s like watching a beautiful Elf sing the Dwarven song, with such a lovely voice.
Anyone else “hit the like button” before even listening just because you know it’s gonna be incredible?
Everyone*
Me too :D
I admit, i did that.
And many more times before that.
yap
Yup
In the words of a wise man: “I’ve been looking forward to this.”
I think it was a sith lord actually... but that's a whole other discussion
@@tonybuk70 A Sith Lord of a more... civilized age.
Automatically read that with Christopher Lee’s voice lol
In the words of a young man: “My powers have doubled since the last time we met, Count.”
@@georgeofhamilton Good. Twice the pride, double the fall.
That was incredible! Would love to collab
Id love to collab Peter!
I Love and Admire both of your works So Much
Can't wait to see what you guys come up with :D
@@RachelHardy Can you sing rdr2 songs?
Oh man, I cannot wait to see a collab between you guys.
Woahh i cannot wait 😍
Far over the Misty Mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away, ere break of day
To seek our pale enchanted gold
The dwarves of yore made mighty spells
While hammers fell like ringing bells
In places deep, where dark things sleep
In hollow halls beneath the fells
For ancient king and elvish lord
There many a gleaming golden hoard
They shaped and wrought, and light they caught
To hide in gems on hilt of sword
On silver necklaces they strung
The flowering stars, on crowns they hung
The dragon-fire, on twisted wire
They meshed the light of moon and sun
Far over the Misty Mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away, ere break of day
To claim our long-forgotten gold
Goblets they carved there for themselves
And harps of gold, where no man delves
There lay they long, and many a song
Was sung unheard by men or elves
The pines were roaring on the heights
The wind was moaning in the night
The fire was red, it flaming spread
The trees like torches blazed with light
The bells were ringing in the dale
And men looked up with faces pale
The dragon's ire, more fierce than fire
Laid low their towers and houses frail
The mountain smoked beneath the moon
The dwarves, they heard the tramp of doom
They fled the hall to dying fall
Beneath his feet, beneath the moon
Far over the Misty Mountains grim
To dungeons deep and caverns dim
We must away, ere break of day
To win our harps and gold from him!
The wind was on the withered heath
But in the forest stirred no leaf
There shadows lay be night or day
And dark things silent crept beneath
The wind came down from mountains cold
And like a tide it roared and rolled
The branches groaned, the forest moaned
And leaves were laid upon the mould
The wind went on from West to East;
All movement in the forest ceased
But shrill and harsh across the marsh
Its whistling voices were released
The grasses hissed, their tassels bent
The reeds were rattling--on it went
O'er shaken pool under heavens cool
Where racing clouds were torn and rent
It passed the Lonely Mountain bare
And swept above the dragon's lair
There black and dark lay boulders stark
And flying smoke was in the air
It left the world and took its flight
Over the wide seas of the night
The moon set sail upon the gale
And stars were fanned to leaping light
Under the Mountain dark and tall
The King has come unto his hall!
His foe is dead, the Worm of Dread
And ever so his foes shall fall!
The sword is sharp, the spear is long
The arrow swift, the Gate is strong
The heart is bold that looks on gold
The dwarves no more shall suffer wrong
The dwarves of yore made mighty spells
While hammers fell like ringing bells
In places deep, where dark things sleep
In hollow halls beneath the fells
On silver necklaces they strung
The light of stars, on crowns they hung
The dragon-fire, from twisted wire
The melody of harps they wrung
The mountain throne once more is freed!
O! Wandering folk, the summons heed!
Come haste! Come haste! Across the waste!
The king of friend and kin has need
Now call we over the mountains cold
'Come back unto the caverns old!
Here at the gates the king awaits
His hands are rich with gems and gold
The king has come unto his hall
Under the Mountain dark and tall
The Wyrm of Dread is slain and dead
And ever so our foes shall fall
Farewell we call to hearth and hall!
Though wind may blow and rain may fall
We must away, ere break of day
Far over the wood and mountain tall
To Rivendell, where Elves yet dwell
In glades beneath the misty fell
Through moor and waste we ride in haste
And whither then we cannot tell
With foes ahead, behind us dread
Beneath the sky shall be our bed
Until at last our toil be passed
Our journey done, our errand sped
We must away! We must away!
We ride before the break of day!
I’m gosh I love this
Thanks! I was wondering how the whole song went, wanted to listen to it. Now I think that's a bit too time consuming...
I always look for this kind of comment and I'm happy when I find one so thanks for being that one :)
Wow thank you!
❤
" Who is she ? "
" She's an Elf. "
No she is an angel
THAT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING!
my wife
@@evilsonic9999 lucky bastard!
Congrats brother 👌🏻
Sounds like an elf was singing it. Amazing, like other songs.
You don’t think I could pull off a beard?
@@RachelHardy I believe in you Rachel! Lol
@@RachelHardy I heard a few other covers of this, but your is one of the best. I'm thinking it could be overlaid with the Peter Hollens and Tim Faust, to have a Soprano, Tenor and Bass or have you heard their version yet?
@@RachelHardy THIS was your chance to pull off a beard without anyone even raising an eyebrow. You might never get such a good excuse for a beard again. (Which is kinda sad. I would have loved to see a Rachel Beardy.)
Elf doesn’t do her justice, I think Tolkien would describe her as an Elven Maiden. Tolkein's Elves are ethereal, beautiful creatures in touch with both heavenly as well earthly attributes. I also think Tolkien would be amazed to see so many beautiful renditions of his songs. Absolutely beautiful.
Imagine having her voice in the trailer for the battle of the five armies when the trailer first came out!
Ever since your cover of Toss A Coin to Your Witcher, I have been following your progress with glee. Seeing you progress is such a joy, the hard work you put into your videos really pays off.
Thanks so much for coming along for the ride!
Screw all those "pop stars" promoted by big labels. You and people like you, independent artists, are real stars to me! I bow to your talent. Every upload is absolute pleasure!
Thank you so much!! I’m glad you are enjoying the music 🙏🏼
I can't list how many better musicians I've found on UA-cam who deserve so much more than actual industry people
you don't have to take down other artists to favor one. I'm just saying it
Bien d'accord avec toi ;)
But then we wouldn't have the songs in the first place. Like Enya Annie Lennox. For these other brilliant artist to sing there songs.
This cover is worth at least 2 Arkenstones 🧙🏻♂️
omg TWO?
@@RachelHardy That's the bare minimum. Maybe add the 7 rings of the dwarves and we can get closer to the actual value?
@@franciscloutier6343 the rings made the dwarf even more greedy for gold ect. don't think it's a good idea to give someone all 7 xD
Maybe the three elven rings and all the gold in the Lonely Mountain
@@azriellynch9043 the five wizards staffs
Anyone else get chills listening to this? because I sure as hell did! Great cover! I loved it!
This is exactly how I imagined a dwarvish song would be like if it was sung by an elf. Loved it!
This is one of those songs that I can't imagine sounding good with female vocals. But that's what I thought about "My mother told me" until Rachel changed my mind on that one, I guess I will realize how wrong I was about this one in a few hours.
I was a little nervous about this one for that reason. I tried to change it up and give it a new vibe, we'll see how it goes over.
This may sound crazy and a very different genre but I think hurt by Johnny cash you would kill an I would love to hear
Natydredd has a Gaelic Scottish accent and it’s incredibly well done.
@@RyanJuliaWhitney23 Considering that Tolkein referred The Hobbit, LOTR and The Silmarillion from Beowolf, it's not surprising he imagined the accents with a Gaelic lilt. Such would the Dawrves and Elves singing be, but the Hobbit songs have more of an English West Country (Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, with a dash of Welsh - all Celtic) to them.
I closed my eyes and imagined myself in the middle of a forest sitting on a tree and singing this while looking into the sky. You made my day!
Maybe she's a nymph??
Even a siren?
woooooow!!! she has dreamy voice! her voice like an Angel
This voice and the choice of the songs is nothing short of brilliant. Dear Rachel you have a lovely voice. Thank you for singing to us.
If Bilbo baggins heard this rn, he would again be inspired to go on the journey😀
I don't understand why people dislike this. I really don't.
Almost nobody disliked. Only 8 trolls ^^
8 Orcs, that's all.
They cried in joy and missed the button through the tears
@@naomiuchiha0906 that makes sense.
Sauron, Smaug, Azog, Borg, one troll, and three other orcs and possibly Melkor Morgoth, Nazguls, and five more uruk-hais that's all.
You perfectly captured the haunting and mournful quality that makes this piece so powerful. I feel it's best performed when the arrangement is kept simple, and you did exactly that. Absolutely stunning, Rachel!
Far over the Misty Mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away, ere break of day
To found our long-forgotten gold
The pines were roaring on the heights
The wind was moaning in the night
The fire was red, it flaming spread
The trees like torches blazed with light
The bells were ringing in the dale
And men looked up with faces pale
The dragon's ire, more fierce than fire
Laid low their towers and houses frail
Far over the Misty Mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away, ere break of day
To found our long-forgotten gold
Ahhh I love Rachel's songs! Especially if it's the middle earth themed 😌
Honestly clicked because I'm a LOTR fan, also because she is beyond beautiful. Her voice is ever more beautiful!!!
That was... mesmerizing, to say the least.
I'm so addicted to this version!! Absolutely the best!
Wow, never thinked in my life I could listen an angel singing like that
Girl you made me cry, your voice is pure love.
I love this very well composed
Lovely voice and beautiful as an elf keep it up!!!!
*immediately hits like button* what a lovely song ♥
Wow this woman has the magical voice of a siren! Beautiful cover and self-harmony!
she is so good in this... i been hearing for 2 years.. nobody could do a better cover than her.. just amazing.....
Beautifully. It gives me the shivers.
Beautiful when an elf sings dwarven songs!
We all have to agree it cant get any better than this...
Rachel, when you sing, your voice stirs the angels. Beautifully done. ty
Are you an angel? Elf? or something else? because you and your voice is clearly beyond our world.
She's the Demi-Godess of singing
Ten times more soothing than any type of sleeping pills...
This is a pure example when pure singing and ASMR collide in an perfect balance.
Stunning rendition, love your work. Thanks Rachel for another amazing piece.
Already liked it and I haven't even heard it yet. Nice job Rachel 👏
same
Your profile pic is distracting
I thought an eyelash fell on my screen 😂
Rachel, You are truly an angel in every way: music, appearance, presence! More than appreciation! 👋👋👋👋👋
Brings me back to the shores of youth ...
Don't do this to me!!!! Thorin singing it was emotional enough. I'm about to break down darn it
Ah these just get better and better. That arrangement on this is perfect
These songs... these are the only thing to show for Tolkien's genius. And people are still ready to spread his music. This makes me happy.
Hauntingly beautiful, thank you for this rendition of the misty mountains.
I just love the way different voices are shown if multiple frames. Excellent performance!
It has been such a joy watching the evolution of such an incredibly talented artist!! Rachel - you never disappoint, and as one of your biggest fans I want you to know your videos are something I truly look forward to! This latest cover is fantastic - thank you so much!!!! 😻😽😸
Thank you Linda! You’re kind words always brighten my day up ♥️🙏🏼🥲
@@RachelHardy I went back and listened to 'Let her go' a few days ago, she was great then, great now. Can't belive its been 7 years
I really love how her voice is so clear and tranquil, no extra fuss and stutters.
It reminds me of a clam lagoon, with depths of mystery.
Beautifully done. Scary how well you caught the spirit in your singing. I see the dwarfs kneeling with their hands on their swords, tip first in the ground, eyes closed, heads down. It is a solemn song of remembrance.
Rachel and her beautiful voice is coming down the misty mountains!
OMG i never believed this song could sound sound so nice with a female voice but you showed that it can and it sounds soooo great, so nice 😍❤️ love your voice 😍😍 thanks for these wonderful few minutes in the morning ^^ greetings
An elf maiden sings a Dwarven song. May the Stars shine upon the hour of our meeting. 😲
beautiful in evet way possible, thank you for such an amazing cover
Welcome back Rachel Hardy, it's been far to longe since we had a new song, from you.
I took a short hiatus! Happy to be back! :)
@@RachelHardy you seem tall, are you tall?
God richly blessed you with a talent.
I could listen to this version ceaselessly.
Bring me to Arda!
So beautiful and tender your are with this song... ❤️
This is beautiful! I really like your take on the song, your voice's timber makes it really unique.
Love your voice so calm and peaceful
It's like an elven cover of the dwarven song. Beautiful!
This song gives me chills. And you sing it so beautifully. Keep touching hearts with your voice.
Wow... I.... just wow. I have no words for how beautiful this is.
Thank you for your great performance of this song. It´s my new favorite song
Beautiful performance !!!❤👌👏👏👏👏👏
I got chills
Thank you for showing me one of another million sides of this world. Just thank you.
To see an elf maiden sing this song seems unnatural, but not unappreciated. Durin would be proud
Me after reading the title: "Huh this could be interesting idk how it'd be the same with a woman's voice tho"
Me after 5 seconds: "I think I'm in love with this woman"
That is exactly what my thoughts were as well!
What are the sweetest words on your lips🥰
I discover your channel just now and i fell in love with your voice and your universe.
You make incredible job, never stop it.
Ok, this probably will be the next cover I'll have on repeat for weeks. Anxiety overflow.
oh boy those are some high expectations. I'm feeling the pressure.
@@RachelHardy hahaha I have faith in you!
@@RachelHardy amazing job as always
@@RachelHardy did NOT disappoint
Youre just my kinda guy.
Out of all the covers for this song I've heard this is by far number 1 keep up the great work 👏 ABSOLUTELY 💯
I love how you've brought through a different pitch to the song but it still has the same emotional tones. It still has the pain and sorrow that made the song from the Hobbit a stand out moment in the hobbit trilogy. Definitely earned the sub.
beautiful
Discovered you 6 years ago with the last goodbye. As a big fan of Tolkien and everything attached to it, I just want to thank you for making the songs even better. You are clearly underrated, but I have no doubt you will get everything you deserve ! (sorry if there is mistakes, english is not my first language =) )
Yeaaah, you took my suggestion. This is 100 % going to be the song i listen most to this year on Spotify. Last year it was your cover from the Witcher (642 times). But i think this cover will beat that
so this video randomly popped up...and i wasnt looking at the time. i had to come and see who was the voice of this angel....
This song sounded really good in the higher notes. I'd love to hear this with you singing and at the same time having that deep baseline. This was awesome ❤
The voice of a true angel, I can't believe I was lucky enough to stumble across such a magnificent and beautiful sound ❤️ all the best for the future!!
Years ago I asked you for this song and finally you sang it for us, thank you very much.
Thanks Bilbo 😂
An enchanted elvish performance indeed.
Wow!! Your voice.. it's magical 👌🏻
Thank you! I love your songs and was hoping you'd do this one some day! It's absolutely wonderful.
Goosebumps an tears, it's the whole emotional package for me. Already listened to it several times and it's definitely going to be one of my all-time favorites. 💖
Love this song! Thanks for the cover, Rachel! =)
My oldest and I love singing this song. One of Tolkien's best songs in all his books
This was amazing! I could picture in my head the dwarves signing this and I wondered what you were going to do when they all joined in. Absolutely nailed it!
Thanks for this cover, its simply amazing
Such an angelic voice! ❤❤❤ Honestly made my heart melt just cuz it almost sounds like a lullaby to me! 🥰
Oh my oh my. Ethereal, haunting, beautiful.
I cannot express what it feels like listening to your angelic voice.
Unimaginable, thank you so much.
Wow! What a beautiful cover of this song. I never thought I’d find one I liked more than Peter Hollens’, but this might be it. Well done.
Ich liebe ihre Stimme und ihre Art wie sie Singt. ❤
You are... Perfect... Thank you, my lady.
Such angelic beauty. Exquisite.
Not at all what i expected. I've listened to it twice and now i feel like the original does not at all hold up to this. Great Job Rachel!!
Thanks Mattis!!
“You cannot be her. She is far away. She... she is far, far away from me. She walks in starlight in another world. It was just a dream. Do you think she could have loved me?”
A voice that reaches the soul, pure, magnificent, harmonious. A blessed voice. Congratulations on your work and may everyone hear the emotion that emanates from you, thank you for sharing your gift.
Epic as always.
