Three weeks ago my grandmother close her eyes for the last time. She was the one who introduced me Tolkien's stories. First The Hobbit and later The Lord of the Rings. She's still in my heart, and she will remain there for the rest of my life, but Into the West brought tears to my eyes. Thank you, Peter, for reminding me of her. Edit: Thank you all for your messages. It helps me through my process. My grandmother really was a fantastic person. She was open and kind to all she met, and when politicians and the news preached suspicion and hate towards strangers, she instead opened her home and helped people in need. She was 94 when she passed and she was sick with cancer. She refused treatment, because in her mind she had lived her life to the fullest and treatment would just sour the time she had left. She passed surrounded by her sons and grandchildren, and while I'm mourning the loss a part of me is happy she found peace. I'm working through my grief with professional assistance, but it warms my heart that total strangers are asking about my wellbeing; Thank you.
I'm so sorry for your loss. 💔 Your grandmother sounds like she was an amazing person. Honored that the music could bring back those special Tolkien memories for you. 🧙♂️📚
It’s been a month now & sooner or later, support will start ebbing…from a fellow stranger on the internet, how are you holding up? Are you keeping hydrated & fed? Are you grieving “well” (a subjective thing, we all grieve differently)? ❤
music truly carries such a beautiful power of community and friendly bonds, capable of pulling memories from deep within us ♥ may your grieving process soothe you as you move on and live in ways that will bring you joy and honor her memory ♥🙏
Wow what a fantastic grandmother! I hope you keep coming back through your grieving process, and finding continuing solace. She might be chatting with Tolkien right now!
I have not been able to sing "Into The West" since 2011, when I used it on a memorial site for a loved one. My throat just closes up completely. But I love to listen to others sing it, and this is my favorite cover now.
I played Into The West shortly after my chosen mom passed away a couple weeks ago, and I know she's not suffering anymore but this song reminds me of her warm hugs, her kind smile, and how she always had some Uncle Iroh-esque advice no matter what. I miss you Sally, I could use one of those mom hugs right about now...
Sending you the biggest virtual hug right now 🫂💖 Sally sounds like she was an absolute gem. I'm honored that my music could bring back those beautiful memories. Hang in there, friend - I bet she's smiling down on you with all the Uncle Iroh wisdom! 🍵✨
@@PeterHollens Sally was an incredible mom to many of the LGBTQIA community. She took a lot of us on as family when our own cast us out. She was a veteran of the US Navy, and was just the kindest soul. Thank you, and please keep making amazing music. Your music and your voice reach so many people, thank you.
My deepest condolences. People like Sally are rare and irreplaceable. So now you must pay her forward with the rest of your found family, and keep her memory alive.
I lost both of my parents in 2021 within 24 days of each other. Listening to this version of Into The West makes me feel like both of them are just there, watching over me and smiling.
@@PeterHollens You made my entire lifetime. I was not expecting a comment back at all and I am so happy and honored that you did. Thank you for being such an amazing human being. ❤️
man, Tolkien would have been so proud had he experienced this (and the others ofc). i think peter just always captures the heart of lotr/th the comments on screen was a nice touch as well, very sweet ^^
Wow! Peter gives “keeping yourself company” a whole new meaning! Brings ‘middle earth’ up to the surface for us not-yet-familiar with these songs. BRAVO, Peter and Peter and Peter and ….!!
I had never cried before during Into the West though I love your cover of it. Then I saw your caption. I just lost someone very close to me and when that song played, I watched my happily playing toddler who will never know this family member who was so instrumental to my life. I started sobbing. I couldn’t sing along like I normally do. I was not prepared.
My sister and I love to sing your version of Into the West, with her strong alto singing the melody and my soprano singing the countermelody and background vocals. Such fun, fond memories are tied to that song, and I'm so thankful for it, Peter. Thank you for all your hard work, my friend!
Mr. Hollens, I have to share something. I had a cat, her name was Svetlana. She simply adored your voice. Even if she was sleeping, if I played one of your videos, she would jump on the table, setlle into my arms and listen intently. She would stay there as long as you were singing, no matter how long that was. Song of the Lonely Mountain was her favorite. Cats have VERY sensitive hearing, so that is a HUGE compliment. Your singing is a force of nature. She died from cardiac arrest, so suddenly, so young, left me, my husband and the other cats deeply grieving. Now, when I hear you sing, my heart feels her warm body in my arms again. Thank you.
Wow, I'm honestly speechless. 😢 Svetlana sounds like she was the coolest cat ever, with impeccable taste in music! I'm so touched that my voice brought you two closer and now helps keep her memory alive. Sending you, your hubby, and your furry fam all the love in the world. Svetlana's spirit lives on in the music. 🌈💖
My only regret is I stumbled upon this at 1:30am, and I have to stop listening to this to go to sleep. I hope that making this brought you even half the joy I get listening to it. So very well done, thank you!
I had someone sing this for my husband's funeral. I love the original but I especially love hearing it with Peter's voice. My husband and I vacationed at the Oregon coast. I went back and listened to this as I watched a ship sailing towards a beautiful sunset over the ocean. Surreal!
I go so long between hearing his voice that I forget how epic he is. One of my all-time favorite singers hands down. Very few vocals give me chills like his do. 👏👏👏👏👏
Howard Shore's work and some of the other contributing musicians and composers have produced some of the greatest music of our time. You have done this work justice with your renditions, and it helps us rediscover captivating music with a fresh perspective. I hope you keep going.
Always love your music! Look forward to more! Unrelated to LoTR for a moment - would love to see your Kennergy in performing "I'm Just Ken" from the Barbie movie, LOL! :D
@ Haha, totally! I'm sure it'll be awesome and hilarious if you do! 😂 Either way, looking forward to more from you. 😄 Warm Winter Wishes to you and yours! 🎄
My grandparents died in the 80s when I was 8 and 11 yrs old. At those ages I couldn't find the words except sadness. Now with listening to Into the West again helped me find those words at almost 49: grief, longing, ache and loss. But the ones that are the strongest is: love and peace because I still feel thier love and peace surrounding me. I See Fire also brings up those emotions along with strenght. I want to thank you for helping me finally bringing peace to my heart that hurt for so long. You truely have the voice of an angel and I have never come across one like it. Please keep bring that gift to the world. ❤
I have been a follower of yours for years and I still squeal every time I see that you've uploaded something. I deeply love all of your work, but your LotR material is absolutely unparalleled and especially dear to my heart. Your voice is emotive, ethereal, and just straight up legendary, perfectly suited for these pieces. I also LOVE that you added the community's comments in the video, it was a wonderful touch! Guren glassui!
Wow, talk about making my day! 🥰 Your enthusiasm is giving me life right now! So glad you're enjoying the LOTR vibes and the community love. Guren glassui to you too! 🧝♂️💖
Honestly one of my favourite compilations of yours to date. Lord of the Rings music just hits differently! So beautiful and you sing them so beautifully.
Wow! "Into the West" is just amazing when sung by Mr. Hollens. This song gave me goosebumps for ten minutes after listening to it! I immediately went to Spotify and added it to my playlist! Peter Hollens, you bow to no one.
This is a wonderful compilation/mashup! The transitions were great, and your vocals have always been a delight. I don't know how I keep forgetting Hank Green can sing 😅 Thank you so much for all you do ❤ I'll be sending this to my sister in the morning
Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. The world of Middle Earth is one of my favorites, I first saw the Lord of the Rings in 2001 when I was 4 and I’ve been in love with it ever since. Thank you Peter for bringing these songs that have been apart of my life to life with your amazing voice.
Gorgeous as always. Aragorn's coronation was the song I walked down the aisle to at my wedding (very special song to me and your version is as good as the soundtrack!).
Fun fact: Annie Lennox, who sang "Into the West" in the movie, was part of the group Eurythmics (songs like "Sweet Dreams"") in the early 80's - imagine 20 years later and she's still singing incredibly.
Drinking while cooking by myself has never been so joyous as when I blast this over the speaker & sing along 🫶 Thanks to everyone involved for putting this bit of light into my life! And if I get to "I see fire" without checking my stove well... I usually know what to expect to see now 😆✌️
13:44 - 13:50 That TRANSITION between songs was FIRE (pun very much intended). Thank you for all of these covers. Absolutely feeds the LOTR and Acapella nostalgia in me
Just wanted to say thank you for your version of "Into the West." It's the song I play when I'm stressed or can't sleep and it has been for years now. Thank you thank you thank you!!
Love this, Peter!! You are 1 amazing young man..thank you for your beautiful covers..your voice brings out so much emotion in so many, no wonder we love you❤😊
Sending musical greetings right back to Germany! 🌟 So glad this Middle-earth mashup resonated with you - creating these elvish arrangements is always such a magical journey! ✨
Truly some of your finest work Peter!!! Two other ideas for when you’re ready to get back into making new videos: if you covered the classic Irish hymn “Be Thou My Vision,” I think it would be breathtaking!! ⛪️🎶☘️🇮🇪 Plus, it’d be epic if you did a medley of songs from the ROCKY BALBOA movies! 💥🥊
Hey Peter. I love the extended version of your LOTR songs. Your voice somehow makes it more magical than the originals. It is a great walk down memory lane. No, I can’t believe how long ago since the first debut (not sure I want to think if it, lol 😮)
Love all the songs, Peter! The Drinking Medley is my favorite and I See Fire is my second favorite! 🥰💖 You have such an awesome voice and to harmonize with yourself is amazing on it's own! You are one talented guy! Keep doing great songs and keep up the good work too! Love it! 😉🥰💖❤️☺️🎤🎧 Also, be kind to your voice too, that's very important! ☺️😁
So Amazing as always!! Double LOVE for these Fabulous LotR songs. Love THEM ALL for different reasons. All number ones!! So deeply moving!! Thanks so much Peter!! You have an awesome collection of work but these are extra special and deeply touching to this Scots/Irish soul!!
I forgot Into the West existed until I heard you sing the first few lines. I remember hearing this song at the end of the movie and crying from so many emotions, and the song stuck with me. My parents didn't like buying movies, as they didn't see the point in watching them again, but when I asked they bought the soundtrack for me. I would sing the lyrics the best I could, and cried every time. I started singing along as soon as I recognized the song, and was crying again by the end. Thank you for reminding me of these feelings through your rendition.
Honestly I am blown away by how well this Medley of six songs is. Sure each song has a unique sound to them but combined together it’s a complete listening experience with headphones on. Well done, and keep up the good work 👏👍😁👍❤️🎥🍿🍍🥥🍻🇺🇸🎉🍵🍰✅🙏.
Oh Vlogbrothers had their big initial blow up because Hank’s “Accio Deathly Hallows” went viral back in the day. I encourage you to look up his original music.
That's a great collection to put together. And I just started watching The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings movies again last night. Some coincidence! Thank you for putting this together! LOVE it!
I can't pick a favourite....it's blasphemous to pick just 1. It's ALL awesome. But Hank Green singing "There's an inn, a merry old inn" is high on my list of awesome :P
I love the idea of mashing it together! Didnt realize I needed this! Also the addition of comment popups filled me with glee, anticipation, and anxiety for who will pop up next lol. I need to come up with something witty lol.
Now do Theodred’s funeral song that Eowyn sings! Love your Lord of the Rings covers the most of all your excellent work. Thank you for letting me reminisce today!
Hello Mr Peter Hollens!! I really need to tell you that you have an angelic voice that every time i hear, i feel so calm and happy!! I am also thankful that I found you😊!! I truly believe that you can sing perfectly any kind of songs, but i feel that this kind of music highlights your beautiful voice!! Thank you so much for giving us more happiness in our life!! A young fan sending you love and greetings from Greece😍🤗🎶!!!
The drinking medley will never stop being awesome. Since I've discovered it, I have been listening to it on and off every few weeks and every time it's as amazing as the first time.

One voice to rule them all. One voice to find them. One voice to bring them all, and in harmony bind them.
^^^ This!
Okay, that's like the coolest twist on Tolkien ever! 😍 You just won the internet today, my friend! 🏆
I agree with Peter, that was really cleaver, kudos.
Hank Green: and I am two...
@@PeterHollens. Can you make a short/video of Steal the Show from elemental?
Hank Green truly seems like one of those rare people than can do absolutely anything.
Right? I was, “wait, THAT Hank Green? Of course, because Hank can do ANYTHING, up to and including beating cancer.”
I wasn't sure at first if it was him
This 👆 - it's just a tiny bit sickening - but he's also able to be so likeable that I can't really help but love it...
Years later and Into the West still hits so hard. Thank you for these covers!!!
Legit the best version of this song

Love the color-leaching effect in Gollum’s Song! It really mimics his slow fall to the influence of the Ring.

Hey Peter. I love the extended version of your LOTR songs. Your voice somehow makes it more magical than the originals. It is a great walk down memory lane. No, I can’t believe how long ago since the first debut (not sure I want to think if it, lol 😮)
Aww, thanks for the magical vibes! ✨ And yeah, time flies when you're having fun in Middle-earth! 😅🧙♂️
Love all the songs, Peter! The Drinking Medley is my favorite and I See Fire is my second favorite! 🥰💖 You have such an awesome voice and to harmonize with yourself is amazing on it's own! You are one talented guy! Keep doing great songs and keep up the good work too! Love it! 😉🥰💖❤️☺️🎤🎧 Also, be kind to your voice too, that's very important! ☺️😁
So Amazing as always!! Double LOVE for these Fabulous LotR songs. Love THEM ALL for different reasons. All number ones!! So deeply moving!! Thanks so much Peter!! You have an awesome collection of work but these are extra special and deeply touching to this Scots/Irish soul!!
Your deep connection to these LOTR songs speaks to my musical soul! 🧝♂️💫
I forgot Into the West existed until I heard you sing the first few lines.
I remember hearing this song at the end of the movie and crying from so many emotions, and the song stuck with me.
My parents didn't like buying movies, as they didn't see the point in watching them again, but when I asked they bought the soundtrack for me.
I would sing the lyrics the best I could, and cried every time. I started singing along as soon as I recognized the song, and was crying again by the end.
Thank you for reminding me of these feelings through your rendition.
Dude, your story hit me right in the feels! 😭 So cool that the soundtrack became your personal treasure. Music really has that magic, doesn't it? ✨
Good collab! 🙂
The best songs sung by the best singer ever,what more could I wish for this evening? Thank you @PeterHollens ,I love these songs so much
This was absolutely thrilling to hear. Please consider singing Tom Bombadill’s song!!
Thank you! Tom Bombadil's tune would be so fun to tackle. I'll add it to my list of potential future projects! 🎵🧙♂️
Honestly I am blown away by how well this Medley of six songs is. Sure each song has a unique sound to them but combined together it’s a complete listening experience with headphones on. Well done, and keep up the good work 👏👍😁👍❤️🎥🍿🍍🥥🍻🇺🇸🎉🍵🍰✅🙏.
I love that you caught the magic of the mix! 🎧✨ Thanks for the awesome vibes!
Once in a while, UA-cam gives me a recommended that makes my day.
It was all fantastic, but Gollum's Song is my favorite.
Wonderful covers, into the west left me in tears 😢❤ I missed yout cover of may it be
Well… there goes my weekend, it’s time to binge watch all of your videos again.
That's the isea😂🎉
I never realized Hank Green could sing but I'm here for it. This is amazing
This is strange and funny to me since 17 years ago Hank's songs were a big reason why I was watching their videos in the first place 😃
Oh Vlogbrothers had their big initial blow up because Hank’s “Accio Deathly Hallows” went viral back in the day. I encourage you to look up his original music.
I've been sick, so this cheered me up very much when little has, great work as ever! And a delight to see Hank here!
Aw man, hope you're feeling better! 🤒💖 Nothing like a Middle-earth musical journey to lift the spirits, right?
This is the most calming and inspiring music for a Monday morning. Thanks for having a bonus Hank Green!
Glad we could level up your morning! 🤩
I love watching your mashups of older ( but LEGENDARY) covers with comments! In a way so nostalgic... Great listening to your covers again.
This reminds me of the old days of Peter Hollens and vocal covers in general!
Aw man, right in the nostalgia! Sometimes you gotta throw it back to move forward! 🎵🥹
This version of into the west still remains my favorite cry music.
Honored to be your go-to cry music. Sometimes we all need a good emotional release! 🫂✨
This is neat. How nice of you to collect em all into one video Peter :)
Some people weren't on UA-cam early on when Hank got famous writing and performing his songs.
Don't even know who he is. Probably not got very big.
That's a great collection to put together. And I just started watching The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings movies again last night. Some coincidence! Thank you for putting this together! LOVE it!
Does something to me, that Song of the Lonely Mountain 🤩
Amazing collection. You have a fantastic voice, Peter!
You're too kind! 😊 Just doing my best to channel some Middle-earth magic! 🧙♂️✨
I can't pick a favourite....it's blasphemous to pick just 1. It's ALL awesome. But Hank Green singing "There's an inn, a merry old inn" is high on my list of awesome :P
Haha, Hank's inn song is a total bop! 🍻 But don't make me choose favorites either - it's like picking between my musical children! 😂
Wow. Truly breathtaking... I'm so grateful to have stumbled across this gem. I look forward to hearing more!
Huh... Hank Green can sing... and WAY better than I would have ever expected. Kickass!
Well, this is the only playlist I'll ever need, and it's all in one video!
Love each one and the flow. So glad I found this! Wish it were on Spotify.
It is!!!!!
Your songs of middleearth always remind me why i love these movies. Keep up the good work.
Keeping the magic of Middle-earth alive through music. Thanks for being part of the fellowship! 🤩
WOW!! YOU NEVER DISAPPOINT!!! THANK YOU!!❤🔥
I love the idea of mashing it together! Didnt realize I needed this! Also the addition of comment popups filled me with glee, anticipation, and anxiety for who will pop up next lol. I need to come up with something witty lol.
Now do Theodred’s funeral song that Eowyn sings! Love your Lord of the Rings covers the most of all your excellent work. Thank you for letting me reminisce today!
Adding it to my idea list! Thanks for the nostalgia trip! 🚀🎵
Hello Mr Peter Hollens!!

Ohh , you deserve all the happiness!!

Super 🤯 Cudne wykonanie 🥰. Niesamowita aranżacja i genialne głosy😊
The drinking medley will never stop being awesome. Since I've discovered it, I have been listening to it on and off every few weeks and every time it's as amazing as the first time.
Yesss, drinking songs for the win! 🍻
I used to watch your I See Fire video all the time when it first came out. Classic 🔥
