- “The song of Lúthien before Mandos was the song most fair that ever in words was woven, and the song most sorrowful that ever the world shall hear. Unchanged, imperishable, it is sung still in Valinor beyond the hearing of the world, and listening the Valar are grieved. For Lúthien wove two themes of words, of the sorrow of the Eldar and the grief of Men, of the Two Kindreds that were made by Ilúvatar to dwell in Arda, the Kingdom of Earth amid the innumerable stars. And as she knelt before him her tears fell upon his feet like rain upon stones; and Mandos was moved to pity, who never before was so moved, nor has been since.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Silmarillion.
As the great Professor Tolkien never actually wrote any lyrics for this song, and to my knowledge nobody else has ever written any music for it either, I decided to take up the challenge of creating this legendary song myself. It wasn't easy, and it stretched all of my skills to the limit, but I hope that you'll feel I did it justice! Thank you for listening - Eurielle.

Lúthien's Lament - Lyrics :
Oh great Mandos
High among Valar
I come to you in sorrow
And with a broken heart
Long has been my journey
That led me to these halls
But now I kneel before thee
As grief my spirit calls
I seek a man named Beren
Whom I bid await me here
I pledged that I would find him
Before he leaves this sphere
This man of whom I speak
He gave his life for me
But thence my soul grew weak
And at last it too broke free
So borne upon an urgent breeze
I travelled to this place
Where only one thing could appease
The torment I now face
Oh tell me I am not too late
To see my love once more
For that would be too cruel a fate
I beg him be restored
That we may take a little time
To bid our last farewell
And remember all we shared erstwhile
Such joy no one could quell
For never was a greater love
Than that within our hearts
Once born, forever binding us
E’en though through death we part
Eurielle is a fascinating artist whose music redefines the Crossover Genre. Drawing influence from myth, legend, and fantasy, as well as our own human nature, her music will transport you into another world... - Hudba
If Tolkien were alive now to hear this, I think he would be proud and very grateful that you wrote, composed and sang this. :)
Oh thank you so much! I really hope so!
@@EurielleMusic when ever I read of luthien I read her with you voice in mind as I imagen her speaking with your voice. thanks you
@@EurielleMusic well actually i think he did not want a song for this because the story between luthien and beren also has parts of his own lovestory implemented and the story between luthien and beren is to great to put it in words or to make a song ouot of it.
BUT: I think he would be reeeeaallly proud!! If there is any way to put this together into a song...it would be like this one. I think it really fits his character and all his story. It is like Luthien actually singign in front of me and that makes me cry because it is so beautiful.
it really couldn't be done better
And i mean it, because i am always a perfectionist and i analyse everything and i am very critical about everything but i find nothing..really nothing that is off or could be done better. And normally i always find a little thing.
So great job you did there!! this will be my favourite song from now on.
First song i've heared that 100% fits my perfectionsim and is flawless in my opinion. Never heard such a beautiful song
😊One supposes, also, that Tolkien IS alive in the halls of Yahweh, for whom the halls of Mandos serve as only an incomplete image (since Edith will be there with him).
@@g.thomashart9368 The Undying lands are perfect, which of course is why the elves withhold them from men, who they deem "lesser" and "unworthy".
I love the little detail when she sings "Before he leaves this sphere"
Which is a clear reference to the fact that when elves die they go to Mandos but when Men die they go somewhere else not bound to the world of Arda
It's a nice detail from Eurielle and awesomely done
The word sphere stood out to the Tolkein nerd in me - so much so that I searched for the word sphere and found your comment here. The world was flat during the First Age when Beren and Luthien lived, and wouldn't be made round until the drowning of Numenor when the "straight road" was left only to the elves. It's easy enough to imagine Luthien in the lament meant sphere as as a domain of power or influence, though it is a stretch since the sphere-ing of the world is so important to the later story.
That tiny nitpick aside, this song is very, very good.
Men also go to the Halls of Mandos but remain there only shortly before their spirits leave.
@@nicholasmainini3897 in some versions of Tolkien's writing it is a sphere from the start and not flat.
The bigger problem is that sphere is not English enough. "Beyond the Circles of the World" is referenced throughout the Legendarium, something that reminded that mightve been better.
"I never called Edith Luthien - but she was the source of the story that in time became the chief part of the Silmarillion. It was first conceived in a small woodland glade filled with hemlocks at Roos in Yorkshire (where I was for a brief time in command of an outpost of the Humber Garrison in 1917, and she was able to live with me for a while). In those days her hair was raven, her skin clear, her eyes brighter than you have seen them, and she could sing - and dance. But the story has gone crooked, & I am left, and I cannot plead before the inexorable Mandos."
- J. R. R. Tolkien Letters #340 to his son Christopher
Thanks, now I want to cry non-stop :'D
@@padroelhijodemorzat112 Fear not for they are together again now forever in Glory unending beyond the gray rain curtins of this world. In that place reserved for the sons and daughters of men forever in light and beuty unending.
my father would have been able to say the exact same thing about my mother...word for word exept the garrison part......seems like that story played itself many times in many places
Wish I could plead with Mandos to let Tolkien keep on writing :)
@@sangralknight3031 Tolkien was a Christian, he knows our fate is to leave the world and dwell with "Eru" :)
Everytime I watch Aragorn and Arwen's wedding, I imagine Beren and Lúthien's spirits among the crew, smiling at them.
I personally subscribe to the theory that they ARE Beren and Lúthien, reincarnated.
@@flowerfaerie8931well, they are both their distant relatives, so :D
They cannot be there, they are beyond the circles of the world.
She's like a female Orpheus, traveling to the underworld to beg Hades to return her Eurydicy
Only this story ends well
Eurydicy? I thought it was Eurydice lol I'm delusional I'm gonna go take a break
@@appleblossom4283 it is Eurydice or even Eurydike
@Tim van der Velden how so?
@Tim van der Velden could you specify in which way Hades was bad? Bc from what I recall, he let Orpheus take Eurydice away from the Underworld. He just told him not to look behind🤔 which Orpheus did, so it's all on him that he didn't bring his wife from the dead🤷♀️ Hades was just, they had a deal and Orpheus forgot the rules he was "playing" by
"It was the most beautiful song ever sing in middle earth, so pure it reaches the heart of Mandos himself." What I love about you Eurielle is not only that your voice is perfect nor that the lyrics are amazing but that it looks so realistic! I can imagine the beautiful luthien singing in sorrow , begging for her love return. You are not singing Luthien's song, you ARE luthien singing! You and the universe of Tolkien are like heaven on earth !
I concur! Tolkien and your glorious, gorgeous, mythical voice, @EURIELLE , is indeed the perfect pairing of the heavens. :)
I agree
Giving goosebumps and brings tears to the eyes.
Nice. Good
"There Lúthien sang a song of such extraordinary power and beauty that it moved even the implacable heart of Mandos himself." I never thought I would hear Lúthien's song and here I am, thank you.
There, in her grief, she sang to Mandos. Her song was of such beauty that Mandos, for the first and only time in his existence, was moved to pity.
So Mandos is usually a jerk
@@chonkydoge1113 Mandos is not a jerk. Doing his duty is just much more important to him than compassion. There is little compassion in him, but there is no cruelty either. He has a job, and he does it.
@@chonkydoge1113 You really should read the books before you make such ignorant comments just to say something.
@@brendangolledge8312hades is the same.
@@mariem8705 Shame christianity had to happen and turn death into something bad or evil. I really appreciate Tolkien's portayel of one most vile deeds of Morgoth: Making humans fear their own inevitable death.
Sadly Hades got the short stick in this story :(
If I was Mandos sitting there on my throne, I would be balling in tears, crying my eyes out from feeling the grief and sadness in her voice and song. I am so glad that Lúthien and Beren finally got their happy ending.
That's why Mandos went up to Valmar to talk to the other Valar what to do the situation. So the Valar made 2 choices for her: 1. Choose to remain an Elf and sang in the Halls of Valmar to forget the sorrow and let Beren go. 2. Choose to give up her immortality and become Human. Allowing Beren to be revived, but she will grow old lile the rest of men. She knows the risk she chooses mortality. That which is the right way and the Valar were unexpected about this. No 1 knows how their fate were and where men's spirits have gone after they die. Only Eru knows...
@@donpula6349Mean manwe❤❤❤
@@hardstyle905 Yep, that 1 too. Only Eru knows.
@@donpula6349 Mandos went to Manwe for council and Manwe asked for advice from Illuvatar himself. And she was given the 2 choices.
Thought this was an actual song written by Tolkien until I read the description haha. Fantastic.

Ditto
They need to make a movie for the Silmarillion and this woman needs to be Luthien, this is probably the most accurate representation of what Luthien sung to Mandos and I want there to be a movie with this song being in it!!!! Who's with me?
Me
Amanda Howland Just recently an article was released that Amazon was planning on making a Silmarillion TV series
ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:S:D
@@tektite0 That's awesome! Thanks for letting me know!
@@directionless5431 But it's not about Silmarillion, it's about the Second Age.
A voice like this will make you cry for two reasons: One being that it is so beautiful and moving, and two being that you realize you have no talent compared to them.
xxXDiamond DragonXXx True 😭
With time you can. There's a science to it that awaits to be discovered by those who put in the work to develop their technique.
😂😂🤣🤣
No, I cry because the song is sad.
yes, singing like her would be very hard for you. But you shouldn't aim to sing like her, or anyone else.
Aim to sing like yourself and you can create something of equal beauty
"Then Lúthien stood upon the bridge, and declared her power: and the spell was loosed that bound stone to stone, and the gates were thrown down, and the walls opened, and the pits laid bare; and many thralls and captives came forth in wonder and dismay, shielding their eyes against the pale moon light, for they had lain long in the darkness of Sauron."
-From the Silmarillion
"As the great Professor Tolkien never actually wrote any lyrics for this song, and to my knowledge nobody else has ever written any music for it either, I decided to take up the challenge of creating this legendary song myself."
-Eurielle, 2017
'For never was a greater love
Than that within our hearts
Once born, forever binding us
E'en tho' through death we part.'
You did it. You created it. This is a masterpiece of art in its highest form. You deserve better that CZcams clicks and likes. I hope Amazon picks this song up and makes it official canon with their upcoming Middle Earth showbiz. If not, well, this will spread far and wide to the end of time, and future generations will keep this song and its message close to their hearts. I sent this to my wife and she cried tears of joy. This is real art.
Thank you so much for this lovely comment! But I'm a bit confused as I think you've mixed me up with Karliene Reynolds? I'm Eurielle ;-)
@@EurielleMusic Well, that's embarrassing! Fixed it. Sorry! Big fans of both of you.
@@SaltyWarPig We shalt all spread this song far and wide, my brother...
Don't hold your breath, it would be beautiful but given they want it to be anything lke GoT and given their writing staff, I'm not quite sure, they even have something stupid as an intimacy coach(What a job by the way, it's like being a fortnite coach) for sex scenes when the Silmarillion depicts love not the vulgar events in GoT, to try and make a GoT like show out of Tolkien's work is like trying to make Dry water
I honestly thought Tolkien wrote this at first. It fits so well.
Listening to this whilst reading "Beren and Luthien" gives a whole new radiance to that suffering Elven maid. Once carefree, a new power wandered into her heart. She suffered her Father's disdain for her beloved. She suffered his leaving, his torment at the hands of Sauron in Tol-in-Gaurhoth, she suffered his leaving again, then every painful, heavy, horrific step towards and in the fell dreaded halls of Angband. She suffered the malice of Morgoth's stare. She suffered the dreaded millennials of the seconds Beren cut the Silmaril from the Black Crown. She suffered the terror of his Awakening, their horrible departure. She suffered the grievous wounding of Beren by Carcharoth. She suffered His pain as she healed him. She suffered the steps towards Doriath. She suffered the long centuries of the hours of the Hunt for the dreaded Wolf. She suffered Huan and Beren leaving the world...a suffering beyond words. Only a song was realized. A song that joined Eru Illuvatar's themes. Thou hast given voice to the suffering of Luthien. Guren Glassui, Hiril Vuin. (Thank you, My Lady in Sindarin)
*millennia of the seconds Beren cut
"And Mandos was moved to pity, who never before was so moved, nor has been since."
Yes, Lúthien was able to move a mountain, and no doubt that this song would do it too.
If Luthien sang like Eurielle, not Mandos nor Eru Ilúvatar could deny her request.
Yes, although Mandos was moved to pity he admitted to Luthien that he had neither the power or authority to grant her request. So he informed Manwe who in turn took the Issue to Iluvatar. And it was Iluvatar who gave Luthien the choice: Immortality free from Grief in Valinor or Mortality with Been.
@@Apollo890 What did she choose?
@@olympiaelda1121 Lúthien ended up choosing mortality with Beren over the Immortaility of Valinor and the pair than returned to the Kingdom of Doriath.
Even I Feanor have been moved to pity.
@@feanor1488 so you are okay with Luthien keeping the Silmaril?
This is the closest thing to what I imagine how Lúthien's voice would sound. Hard to comment, perfect lyrics, perfect music, you're wandering around the "perfect".
Let's be clear:
The ONLY way to properly bring the Silmarilion to the screen would be to do it Game of Thrones style with about 10 times the budget.
One of the seasons would need to end with the tale of Beren and Luthien. This song would be *the* perfect climax of that season. It builds to this moment, grows silent before this masterpeice comes on. Nothing else would suffice. It is that perfect.
Throw in how the professor considered this the pivotal moment of the Silmarilion, and it all adds up.
I pray to Ilúvatar that never happens, my brother. The world would demand that strange creatures to play the roles of the heroes of our most sacred stories. The heathen god of diversity is taking over and twisting our people's hearts.
@@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115 Strange creatures? You mean your fellow man?
@@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115 i agree with you, it just can’t happen. They better leave it to our imagination and Tolkiens.
@@jayjama47 Any one not being of fair race.
@@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115 yep
It is said that Mandos had never been so moved, and never would he ever be again.
A lament of mortal love that moved a god.
How beautifully Tolkien writes...
More Silmarillion inspired songs, please: your voice is perfect.
Greetings from Italy, Eurielle.

@@a_great_fan_of_sammylovehi229 puoi dirlo forte
The fate of Turin or some thing like this would be cool
Love and grief walk hand in hand. Eurielle has managed to convey the extremes of both in four minutes. That, is real talent.
Very few could do such a song from such a character justice.
But Eurielle did it.
...and then, Mandos' unchanging heart was moved, for the first and only time. that song made death, the most absolute truth in the world, submit in favor of the love that two beings professed for each other.
May the Valar protect you, Eurielle! Always.
But the Valar do not exist.
Melkor has taken you! Begone evil being!

I am certain both Professor Tolkien and Mrs. Tolkien appreciate and love this beautiful song you have sung. You honor Beren and Luthien with this song. Well done and thank you.
incredibly tempted to translate this into sindarin and learn it
can't ever hope to sing as lovely as yourself, but it'd make a wonderful lullaby for my sister
Morgoth made 10 accounts to dislike this video.
He's salty XD
Now its 90.
Now 97th dragged to bring down this sphere, why this Melkor's deceit fare here
"for he watched her, leaving her free for awhile, and
taking secret pleasure in his thought. Then suddenly she
eluded his sight, and out of the shadows began a song of
such surpassing loveliness, and of such blinding power,
that he listened perforce; and a blindness came upon him,
as his eyes roamed to and fro, seeking her. " - The Silmarillion
Even Morgoth couldn't dislike Luthien's Singing.
@@Las3rBoy Hahaha small minded, sociopath and petty Morgoth full of mockeries and jealousy "looking upon her beauty conceived in his thought an evil lust"
I close my eyes and I feel like I'm wandering in the undying lands... far from this world. Thank you Eurielle for giving us the pleasure to hear your voice. A voice touched by the grace of the Valar...
This...
The Luthien and Beren part is, for me, the most beautiful story in all the Tolkien world.
When i read this story, i was touched by the sincerity of this moment, when Luthien kneel front of Mandos.... just beautiful...
And this song, is a great tribute of this wonderful moment.
Thanks you for your performance, it's really a great moment of music and feeling.
I can't listen to this without crying, which seems appropriate since it managed to sway even Mandos. This is such a beautiful song, and definitely worthy of Luthien. Amazing work!
I believe the Professor himself, especially if he heard this after the death of his beloved wife, would be moved to tears in a good way and love the song. Very well done.
Their are no words in the English language that can describe how beautiful this is
Foul servants of Morgoth would only dislike this.
Anyway it truly portrays what could have been sang in front of Mandos by Luthien just to reclaim her lost love.
Every time i listen to this song the tears will flow. This song is about real love. Eurielle's voice is amazing. Truly Elvish
Your voice is so beautiful.
On the verge of tears, hearing this. I love this story on The Silmarillion! Best love story ever!
Agreed Best love story ever
Well, as a male I'm not really into love stories, but this one is my favorite, of all. It's not some kind of romantic movie, or one of the trash, that I could consider as a blasphemy of vampires. It is Fantasy. I mean real Fantasy.
You can cry. Even Satan would be move that he'll ask God to get these two back.
Maybe you should buy the book about beren and luthien than. If Im correct, it came out last year.
@@lassesgamekanaal is it just the exerpt from the sillmarillion, but published as its own, seperate book?
If that's really the song that Luthien sang to Mandos, I completely understand why he was so moved he brang Beren back to life. This song is perfect.
Nine Orcs were bored apparently. This song is beautiful and holds so much power and sadness. I love it 😍
I can only hope Eurielle is musically involved with Amazon's new LoTR series.
I have always read the Silmarillion with the idea that though written as a narrative, I have to think Tolkien meant it to be sung as some grand opera.
You have captured that very spirit in this song. Imagine this sung on stage in some great opera hall, a show stopper in an opera chalk full of them!
Brava! Bravissima!
This is surelly one of the most beautifull things I have ever heard in my life!
I already cried just reading their part in the book.
Now that I'm listening to this while re-reading their chapter, I can't help but cry some more.
And more.
Absolutely gorgeous voice! I'm a man and I'm not ashamed to admit this song brings me to tears! Thank u. U have a amazing talent.
I can hear Tinuviel’s broken heart in your voice and the love for the Professor’s work in your words.
So rare is it that I am moved to tears.
I would applaud you if I could, though I fear my hands are busy hiding my face.
I got CHILLS. It was like Luthien's spirit herself had come to sing in my room. WOW!!!!!!!
This is canon nothing will ever convince me otherwise.
As close as we're ever likely to get.
The degree of strength and determination of Luthien and her undying and loyal Love to go to the beyond and ask for the Life of her beloved is incredible .That is what is so beautiful about this story: the degree of commitment and dedication to the other as signs of love .I want that and I want to give that .
Thank you. I have been through hell recently, and internally an emotional wreck, but I have had few tears. This beautifully written and performed song brought out everything I needed to feel and I found myself a blubbering mess.
Thank you for writing this beautiful piece.
This is actually a masterpiece.... phenomenal...just....there are no words..GOD I wish I could like this a million times
These Tolkien tributes are amazing!
What's truly amazing and leaves me flustered in every song you sing, and especially this one, is your wide voice range, that you use in such a harmonious way. It's really hard to master all those notes and fluidly strive through them like you do! The result is soft and powerful at the same time, like a classical soloist is trained to do. Thank you for embellishing this world Eurielle! You inspire me every day :)
+LifeLoveDreamMusic This is such a lovely comment, thank you so much!
Черт подери, это буквально одна из лучших песен, когда либо услышанных мною!
А я вам скажу, тот ещё музыкальный гурман! Но тут даже меня пробило : и исполнение, и (что в наши дни редкость) текст прекрасны! Эммоций бы ещё побольше и был бы шедевр, без шуток, на века.
Единственное, что я могу вспомнить из более менее способного сравнится - это "Песня Арвен" ("Пусть вечерняя звезда взойдёт над тобой ").
Amazing. Your work is among the finests I have heard.
From a fellow Tolkien & Arda fan, Maë Govannen, and my deepest congratulations to you, dear Eurielle.
I actually thought at first the lyrics had been written by the Professor (I did not know he had not).
The melody is very moving indeed, very sad and touching. All around a good job!
Namarië.
I can fully confirm that my tear glands are working properly.
Truly, are you not part Maiar?
There is a depth of solace, sadness, and sincerity in this that only difficulty is had in written expression. As high as dragon's fly, to the depths of abyssal plains, and with dying sparks in torrential winter. It is that class of emotion that is evoked, much like it is that spirit that listens while the ears hear.
The simplicity of the musical arrangement and the clarity of the vocal delivery enable the listener to actually hear the lyrics. I love it.
An absolutely breathtaking, moving song for the Lady Lúthien. It captures her beauty and the love between Beren and Lúthien indescribably well. Tolkien would be proud.
The most beautiful song I have ever heard. No wonder Mandos was so moved to restore them back to life.
The 100 dislikes are from servants of Morgoth.
I think Luthien's Lament should be played as an Opera...
Thou still visitng us, thy humble audience, o beautiful nightingale?
The over the top melodramatic nature of opera isn't suitable for this.
thanks for giving elves rightful voices.
Your voice is honestly not just "Beautiful voice" It tells stories , The emotions are just ... I can't describe I'm so fan of yours . Much love to you and to your music
Ohhh thank you! I'm so happy you're enjoying my music :)
You're mostly welcome love from Egypt 💕
I have waited so long for this!! Thank you!!! I'm in tears!!! Please do a lament of when Luthien stood before Morgoth, lulling even a more corrupt soul than Sauron.
This is breath taking. I wish i could support you in some way, you deserve much more support and way more subscribers, if one day i become a youtuber and make a following, i will make sure to shine some light on your beautiful music.
Ok I was reading this like "yeah I agree she does deserve more views" but the last part makes it sound like you'll surpass this beautiful music which kinda sounds arrogant :P Lol
DayZ Locke A tiny bit.
How does it sound arrogant?
Göllum If you read it like it would, it sounds a bit like it. But I am sure it wasn't meant that way.
to me it just sounded like he was gonna share it so more people could see it and then they would share it etc. etc. etc
You exceeded my wildest expectations Eurielle! Truly captured the emotions and poetic bittersweetness of Luthien's lament for Beren! They should make a Silmarillion movie and you should make the whole soundtrack in my opinion.
I couldn't hold back the tears... I can only imagine a love so strong you face death with only one goal for the after life: keeping a promise of seeing again someone you loved so so so much. So pretty!
Damn it, this is literally one of the best songs I've ever heard!
And I'll tell you, i's a musical gourmet! But then even I was struck: and the execution, and (which is rare these days) the text is beautiful! Emotion would be even more and would be a masterpiece, no kidding, for centuries.
The only thing I can remember from a more or less capable comparison is "The Song of Arwen" ("Let the evening star rise above you").
If ever a movie comes out with the story of luthien and beren, this version of the song MUST be used
I've heard this song now and then over the years, had it in a couple playlists while I was playing LOTR stuff. I was today years old when I saw the comments talking about how you wrote this. I read the description and I'm shook, I genuinely thought Tolkien had written this like the poem of Beren and Luthien itself. The word choice, the content, everything about it never made me question whether or not it was Tolkien because in my head this is what he would've written.
So I don't know if that's an immense slight to you that I've seemingly ignored your incredible writing talent or if this is extreme praise that you absolutely nailed every single aspect of Tolkien, the LOTR and the story of Beren and Luthien. I hope you take it as a compliment because I'm seriously impressed.
If Mandos heard this song, he certainly would release Beren and give them time together. It’s painfully beautiful
The original song of Luthien was more beautiful for Tolkien (sorry for my bad english but i'm frensh and I love the Tolkien's univers)
I translate the song and its really really beautiful. 🥺😢
@@ninobourdaret9551 I am french too (lol) j'adore cette chanson ! Le chant de luthien a Mandos est très bien retranscris
Precioso. Lloro cada vez que leo Beren y Luthien y lloro con este canto .
I can't, I just can't, this is so sad, I'm tearing up and it's so beautiful. Valar..
Tinúviel -Morghulis
Eurielle, Karliene & Fleurie. 3 voices that changed my vision on life for ever.
Music is Magic.
Magnificent! Tolkien means a lot to me and the fact that you have made this song for characters as dear as Beren and Luthien is just magical! Thank you very much really! Your voice is incredible, the melody is beautiful and you are a genius!
The lyrics and singing in this is perfect, the only to make it a masterpiece is if Eurielle could learn the elvish language and sing it in elvish like Luthien probably did in the book, still great though
Such a masterpiece, you honor Tolkien's work with this piece. Amazing writing and performance. Love your work!
Cada día amo más y más a Tolkien. ¿Cuanta belleza imaginaba ese hombre? Supera mi entendimiento.
Fascinating!! Makes me feel inside of the world of J. R. R. Tolkien😍😄🎶
God bless your voice and skills as a lyricist!!
Incredible. Captures the hope, wonder, sorrow, and sheer grandeur of the tale of Beren and Luthien. I am in awe every time I read or hear the story, and I can say the same about this song. Well done
The sorrowful song that moved to tears the gods themselves... Magnificent work. I have no words.
I'm crying, Mandos is crying EVERYONE'S CRYING!
This is beautiful. You truly capture the essence of the song, of Lúthien coming before Mandos and all the Valar of Arda for her love of Beren. The raw talent you present in this, Tolkien's ultimate expression of passion and sorrow unbound that is the essence of all of his Middle Earth, is truly astonishing and mesmerising to listen to. I am in awe of you
This song has brought tears to my eyes. The greatest love story ever told
Si con esa voz Luthien le suplicó a Mandos el inamovible ver por última vez a Beren entiendo por qué lo cautivó. Casi se me salen las lágrimas.
“I need to see this guy before he dies, we must not waste time!” *she sings for almost 5 minutes*
Well....You can't exactly beg to be reborn with your lover in under 10 seconds can you?
Why do I feel wetness on my cheeks? Am I crying? But I haven't cried in so long... Fuck. I'm so moved by this.
Not only is the music impressive, but I must take a moment to stress how fantastic the composition is as well. The meter, the rhythm, the vocabulary, the tasteful use of the poetic register and archaisms, all is worthy of the Professor. In an age when even "professional" poets no longer write like this, you deserve double commendation. Brava.
Wow! Your upper and lower range are so beautiful, but completely different. Your upper range sounds pure and sweet like a child, and your lower register is open and rich and dark.
I’m literally fucking sobbing right now, I’m never going to be okay about these two and this was an absolute gut-punch to the feels.
Your music is a gift to the world.
Simply amazing. Although i go with "there Was a reason for no lyrics from Tolkien", probably to further deepen the Meaning of how special and otherwordly Luthiens song Was, i daresay this must come pretty close. It is a fine line between sorrowful, hopeful, love and mystical like a song with words woven by the valar. Truly an amazing work and i Can listen to this endlessly. Thank you so much for sharing this with the World! And please keep up making such amazing songs For Tolkiens masterpiece.
Your voice is breathtakingly beautiful, and you bring justice to songs of middle earth.. I can feel middle earth come to life listening to you sing.
The story of Beren and Luthien is one of the most beautiful tales ever told. I'd often wondered what Luthien's song to Mandos would have sounded like. You sang it beautifully. Simple, but lovely. Hovering just on the edge of a plunging waterfall of music. It cascades without disappearing. I loved it.
This song makes me think of someone very special and dear to me…Caitlin. Thank you JRR Tolkien for writing one of the most heart-wrenching tales ever, and thank you Eurielle for such a beautiful piece.
The fact you don't have a million subs for this masterpiece is mind boggling.
Je dirais même 10 millions...!!
Bravo Eurielle! Do you have a CD with all your Tolkien inspired songs? If not, you simply must produce such a work and make it available for us. Art like yours is rare, special and beautiful. I had chills from the opening note.
This is awesome! Thank you Eurielle. Since you started with some Silmarillion music, may I ask for a song of Maglor? It would be great to have one. Maybe a fragment of Noldolantë or one when he is wandering by the shores. Anyway, keep making beatiful art as this one!
Eurielle is very talented but this song really is something else. The performance, the lyrics, and the vivid evocative images it conjures - It is just a masterpiece. I echo another user’s comment in saying that this is a true homage to Tolkien. Surely he is smiling proudly somewhere beyond the veil.
