blog seventeen: let’s go
The song is inspired by the song “Rock Your Body” by Justin Timberlake and my imagination. It’s about spending time with people, helping them repair the land from the ravages of war, and being aware of dangers that still lurk. Also, it’s about battling darkness one last time. It is also about returning to the […]
blog sixteen: weep for me
This song was inspired by “Cry Me A River” from Justin Timberlake, my imagination, and personal experiences. The song is basically if Sam says F you, Frodo, but he does not in the books, mind you, or in the movie “The Return of the King”, when Frodo took Gollum’s side and told Sam to go […]
blog fifteen:dark lands
The song “Dark Lands” was inspired by “Take It From Here” from Justin Timberlake, but again, my imagination was part of the inspiration. Listening to the music, I imagine myself traversing the dead marshes and navigating the Ashen Peaks and the Mountains of Shadows. Then I would imagine myself looking upon Minas Morgul, this city […]
blog fourteen: danger is lurking
This song, “(Oh No) What You Got,” by Justin Timberlake, inspired it, but again, my imagination was part of the inspiration. When I listened to the music, I imagined myself going on different adventures and that they were dangerous. Even traversing the Misty Mountains has its dangers. It’s also about traveling to other lands of […]
blog thirteen: super in love with middle-earth
This song was somewhat inspired by Justin Timberlake’s “Like I Love You,” but the inspiration was that I love the world of Middle-earth, which J.R.R. Tolkien created. So when I listened to the song, I imagined myself as one of the wandering rangers fighting the dark forces that are left after Sauron was defeated, but […]
blog twelve: going into shadow
This song draws inspiration from Linkin Park’s “Breaking the Habit.” As I listened, I envisioned myself in Moria, pursued by goblins and suddenly surrounded. A thunderous roar broke the tension, scattering the goblins, and I faced a balrog. Fleeing to the bridge, I found my strength and sent the balrog to the abyss, even as […]
blog eleven: fighting in the mine
This song draws inspiration from Linkin Park’s “Faint.” As I listen, I envision myself venturing into Moria, facing the haunting sight of dwarven bones before pushing onward through the mine. My journey leads me to Khazad-dum, where I find myself at a tomb, uncovering the past when a sound alerts my presence. I confront goblins […]
blog ten: the dark riders
This song draws inspiration from “Hit the Floor” by Linkin Park. Immersed in the music, I envision a thrilling escape from the Nazgûl, finding refuge beneath a fallen tree. Despite being struck by a Morgul blade, I journey to Mordor, facing the formidable presence of Sauron. I emerge from the lava, ready to confront the […]
blog nine: the eye of sauron
This song truly inspires me. Here’s my journey: At eighteen, I was captivated by Lord of the Rings, and while my enthusiasm has mellowed, it still sparks joy in me. During that time, I discovered Linkin Park’s album “Meteora,” which was my introduction to their music. The song “Lying from You” struck a chord within […]
