(((((OTLAN)))))
Thank you for the songs! I realized I needed music today.
Durin's Song quite moved me. I love TLOTR, though I didn't make it through the Silmarillion. It was well sung.
I think the Wellerman was a traditional Irish song before it became famous, wasn't it?
I don't usually listen to Eminem, though I'm always fascinated how many words he can pack into one second, lol.
I'm a bit exhausted, but I have got the weekend off, so I hope, I'll get enough sleep and energy to make it through the next week. Just one week after another.
But I've got some new books to look forward to. And maybe convince my husband to watch Wheel of Time. The past weeks I went to bed early because work is exhausting.
*Hugs tight Back* Hi ya Regen, long time no see n_n ! Always happy to provide made Music n_n . I find it's the perfect remedy for a weary Soul n_n .
Durin's Song is one of my Favirotes n_n <3 . I actually have it memorized and can sing it by heart XD . I've tried readign TLOTR Books Before, much as I want to, I have trouble staying focused on them XD . The Movies may leave some things out, but I like them and the Games best, at least they're east to fallow, and they really capture the Spirit of the Stories n_n .
I actually looked this up once as I was curious about it/ I may have to do so again just to make sure my information is right. If I remember right, it's actually a Finish Sea Shanty. The song mentions the Sailors Hapooning a Wright Whale, which is found in the Seas around Finland and Australia. Back then, rather then heading into Port to sell of the Whale Part, the Companies would send out these Trade Ships, The Wellerman being one such Ship, to Trade the Crew in Goods like Rum, Spices and Silk for the Whale parts. The Tounging marked the End of a Whale Hunt, when the crew cut out and processed the Whale's Toung. That's usally when they'ed head back into port to sell they're Trade Goods.
Eminem is one of the best Rapper that ever lived n_n . Just when you think he's gone as far as he can, he pushes himself even further, and that's true dedication. Like him or not, you at least have to respect the man for that. The Video I like because it was actually made by a Fan, who sent it to Eminem who then wrote the guy and asked if he'd be interested in making more Videos for him. The reason i like the song is because it's actually about his battle with Alcohol Dependancy.
