#finrod song

[ithilbore]

CALLING ALL TOLKIEN FANS, SPECIFICALLY MUSICAL FANS. Ever thought "hmmm I wonder how the stories of middle earth would be like if brought to a stage"? .....probably not.... BUT LOOK NO FURTHER I have finally compiled this list of all the Tolkien Musicals I could find, packed with links to full performance videos and personal reviews of each.

I noticed that so many people reblogged this with the "THE WHAT OPERA" tag, so may I also humbly suggest/show you

a) Sauron from the Lay of Leithian rock opera, and

b) Mikhail Sidorenko as Namo Mandos(from the same rock opera)

may I introduce the Sauronfuckers of tumblr to Mikhail Sidorenko’s Sauron in the Finrod rock opera

If Silm characters had Tumblr blogs (Years of the Trees):

Galadriel:

url: flowers-glade

pfp: probably a cat picture

blog title: have a voice and won't hesitate to use it

bio: 240s * mixed heritage (all three<3) * disrespect any and I am not liable for the consequences * anti-fëanorian * involved in politics to a reasonable extent

blog is a mix of aesthetic/poetry/literary analysis, strongly-voiced political views (no, she's not 'reasonably' involved), and personal posts that sound a lot like bragging tbh

Maedhros:

url: 12russandol

pfp: a picrew

blog title: Even scholars have their doubts, even painters have their missteps

bio: eldest brother of seven • yes, my father's Fëanor • probably won't reply to any asks about family matters • busy existing

posts like once a month on a very varied array of subjects. always polite

Caranthir:

url: you-are-the-blood-in-my-veins

pfp: something with a dark background

blog title: I just f**ing hate this world

bio: You're not going to like me, but maybe you'll stay to watch the trainwreck

very emo about it, song lyrics and edits, cultivates a deliberately edgy persona (is not really like this irl). steers clear of politics

Finrod:

url: manifestations-sevenfold-daffodil (bastardisation of some hyper-complex philosophical term + something random added on for good measure; if you ask him about the meaning he won't shut up)

pfp: cartoonish snake on a green background with yellow flowers (suspicious similarity to the arafinwean badge)

blog title: Edginess kills

bio: We could also just get on well with eachother :)

posts once a few days, reblogs anything that catches his eye. has contributed to various heritage posts though he isn't tumblr famous, has the epitome of a tumblr sense of humour. rarely makes original posts that aren't about complex philosophical questions.

Bonus - Fëanor:

has no consistent url because he gets banned every two months and has to make a new blog. is a troll. gets into a vicious fight with galadriel every week, neither knowing it's the other. very occasionally posts something more wholesome about his family or craft, but it's rare in comparison.

I had all and then most of you Some and now none of you Take me back to the night we met I don't know what I'm supposed to do Haunted by the ghost of you Oh, take me back to the night we met

"Other names in song and tale are given to these people"

From Morgoth's Ring, a list of names used to refer to the different group of Elves ; I wanted to put only the weapon-related ones originally, but the whole list is too nice :

The Vanyar are the Blessed Elves, and the Spear-Elves, the Elves of the Air, the friends of the Gods, the Holy Elves and the Immortal, and the Children of Ingwë ; they are the Fair Folk and the White.

The Noldor are the Wise, and the Golden, the Valiant, the Sword-elves, the Elves of the Earth, the Foes of Melkor, the Skilled of Hand, the Jewel-wrights, the Companions of Men, the Followers of Finwë.

The Teleri are the Foam-riders, the Singers of the Shore, the Free, and the Swift, and the Arrow-elves ; they are the Elves of the Sea, the Ship-wrights, the Swanheards, the Gatherers of Pearl, the Blue Elves, the people of Olwë.

The Nandor are the Host of Dan, the Wood-elves, the Wanderers, the Axe-elves, the Green Elves and the Brown, the Hidden People.

Those that came late to Ossiriand are the Elves of the Seven Rivers, the Singers Unseen, the Kingless, the Weaponless, and the Lost Folk, for they are now no more.

The Sindar are the Lemberi, the Lingerers ; they are the Friends of Ossë, the Elves of the Twilight, the Silvern, the Enchanters, the Wards of Melian, the Kindred of Lúthien, the people of Elwë.

idk i guess im not surprised the show being what it is but the final show-down between sauron and galadriel being a sword fight feels like such a misundertsanding of their characters....

Hi! New on Tumblr, finally daring to jump into the abyss and join the insanity! I’m a scientist IRL but mostly an artist and nerd, here to share and enjoy art and nerdy topics! Here’s a selection of some of my favorite pieces, and to see more check out my Cara profile: https://cara.app/nerdylizard

I love Tolkien, Brandon Sanderson, Star Trek, Star Wars, Firefly, Doctor Who, and more! My OCs are mostly from Lord of the Rings Online, with some D&D, and I absolutely love doing commission art!

Maedhros (whispering): Fingon,please. We have to be discreet, no one knows we're courting

Caranthir (walking by): Yes we do

For the song lyrics game, who would sing:

I remember a meadow one morning in May With a sky full of dreams that sailed in that day I was dancing through green waves of grass like the sea And for a moment in time, I could feel I was free

There are waves of forgiveness and waves of regret And the first waves of true love I'll never forget In the meadow that morning as I wandered alone There were green waves of yearning for life still unknown

(Chorus) Take me home to the meadow that cradles my heart Where the waves reach as far as you can see Take me home to the meadow, we've been too long apart I can still hear you calling for me

What I'd give to remember that heavenly state Just a moment in time, all mine to create As I'm taking my last breath, I know what I will see There'll be green waves forever out there waiting for me

(Chorus)

The song is Greenwaves by Secret Garden

I'm curious if we'll think of the same character!

Oof another sad and angsty one! :') But this one is also hopeful and peaceful, and I hope other Silm/Finrod fans can see my vision for linking Finrod to this song. I think his reunion with Amarië in Valinor would have been desperately sweet, and is captured in these lyrics. <3

Thank you for the Ask, my friend! And for introducing me to this beautiful song!

This "Who Would Say That Lyric" Game was part of SotWK's Summer Campfire Sleepover 2024.

Because everything I learn get’s funneled into the hyperfixation:

Maglor, Fingon and Finrod singing a three voice motet

[vorbarrsultana]

'Yes, Wise-woman, maybe it was ordained that we Quendi, and ye Atani, ere the world grows old, should meet and bring news one to another, and so we should learn of the Hope from you: ordained, indeed, that thou and I, Andreth, should sit here and speak together, across the gulf that divides our kindreds, so that while the Shadow still broods in the North we should not be wholly afraid.'

 — Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth

Without trepidation, I look into the eyes of fate, and I wouldn't change a single step of it. But only now, thanks to you, I've realized that love knows no rules. You bring me the news of salvation, and closure to the old vows...

New redemption ark idea for lotr:

Maglor joins one of the wars against Sauron and actually kills him

[fistfuloflightning]

In the midst of the fighting, they were swept apart and Daeron was taken by force. He was brought to Tol-in-Gaurhoth, for Sauron’s machinations ran deep. But in despair, Beren hounded their steps, even to the gates of the fortress.

The Book of Unfinished Tales Tolkien Never Actually Wrote

[fantasychica37]

Someone should write the duel of Finrod and Sauron ERB-style, including Sauron trying to magically tear off their disguises via rap (and it has “Who won? Who’s next?” but then Lúthien just comes in and says “me” and Huan rips Sauron to pieces)

My king! Oh what have you done!
