Six thousand spears and my axe. Less than half of what I'd hoped for. 

Hmmm...
 
#1 Isengard..... AND Mordor
 
#2 Through fire... AND water.
 
#3 Now for ruin, AND a red dawn
 
#4 ?

None of what you described makes sense because none of those sentences contained the word "and" in the first place. 

Unrelated: I always hate it when Tengwar trips me up because SOMEONE had to put the vowel sign on the NEXT consonant... 
 

Whether or not Shore wrote the theme is irrelevant to me: it’s a bloody cool tune. To say it refers to the Misty Mountains just because they’re mentioned in one of the verses is missing the point. It’s clearly for the company, and it should have been maintained.

Tried watching with this with the film and found the film practically unwatchable and shortly gave up. But I rediscovered some wonderful passages in the music. I think I'll revisit these scores soon.
 
Great conversation though. Thanks Doug and Jim!

Oh crap. They're really gonna make me care about the Hobbit scores huh?

Thanks! And yes, I know the demand is there. The passion and enthusiasm of Doug and Jim are so infectious, that I almost feel guilty for not liking the Hobbit. It's just so emotionally taxing to keep an interest in the legitimately good themes like Tauriel and Azog, when the same characters' existence bloats the story.

I must thank you @Doug Adams and @Jim Ware for this three wonderfull comenterys. I have learn so much new information about this scores now, everything from choir text, hidden themes, music that is tracked and not tracked, music not heard in the film or soundtrack and much more. 

And the suggestion of giving The Lord of the Rings the same treatment... to which the answer is yes.

I hope so, your videos are amazing, and I would love to have similar ones for the Hobbit (though recognise it’s just a fool’s hope...)

Thanks for the recommendation Chen, the other parts in the series are really good too!

Going by Doug's writings, yes, but he doesn't mention that the exact same figure (vi-IV-V chords with rising harp arpeggios) is used in Very Old Friends, and a very similar one in Bag End (same chords with Hobbit Skip-Beat), both with explicit reference to Bilbo. Both times it deteriorates to minor when the Ring comes to focus, resembling The Pity of Gollum (vi-iv chords with rising arpeggio melody).
 
There's plenty of stuff to do before I can start churning out TTT vids, so I wouldn't say earlier than March. Until then, I'm gonna go over the old vids and make some adjustments. Just from talking to you, I've noticed an error in the second video, though not what we talked about, so this is already working X D
I'm making a video right now about my ambitions for this project, which I hope to release next week.

Shameless self-promotion here, but I have a relatively newly-made YouTube channel dedicated to LotR Score analysis.
I just recently finished the FotR CR, and is looking for some constructive criticism. And where better to go find it than here?
Check it out if you're interested! : )

The A Phrase, yes, but the B Phrase are always closely tied to Bilbo scene-wise.
It was one of the first truly odd things about reading Doug's book, that he several times identified the "wrong" chords as the Hymn Setting. It only made sense when splitting them up into two sections: The A Phrase (D-F#m-G-D, G-A-D-A) always used for Frodo (and Sam) and the B Phrase (Bm-G-A) almost always used for Bilbo. The B Phrase doesn't play for Frodo until in Moria.
Thanks, I've been lurking here for quite some time but didn't feel as if I had something to contribute.
