I don't know what an mp3 is! I've heard of them. I'm sure I sound like an old fossil, but 47 isn't really that old. Is it where you make a copy of an album (CD!). You can pick them from a list? But is the sound quality as good? Owning music is sort of fun, the collecting part. We have 100's of albums bundled with twine on the front porch, my hubby won't part with them. I wonder if my son will ever play them. It's mostly new wave, punk and lot's of rockabilly, plus the greats, Beatles, Stones,and on and on. The Mp3's, you just store for a while and then copy over it? Album cover art was pretty neat, and the lyric sheet and other stuff on the sleeve. Cd's sort of eliminated that cause they're so little. I guess when it's something you really like, you buy it? (like the LoTR soundtrack!

i love the beatles! no wonder he won't part with them!
they rock da haus. mp3's are just one songer files that you can get off the internet. you can collect enough to make a cd or two if you have the right hard/soft ware. ask aldesign, he can prolly explain it better.

Yeah, an MP3 is just a music file that you downloaded off the internet onto your hard drive. You can use MP3 players and listen to it on your computer. Or, if you have a CD burner and the software, you can burn it onto a CD as an audio file and play it in regular CD players. Hope that helps.
I agree- The Beatles are pretty cool. I bought the "1" CD collection of their #1 hits and gave it to my mom for Christmas a couple of years ago. Sometimes when she's not around, I take it and listen to it myself.

EG likes the Beatles a lot. They are one of her favorite bands. And Led Zeppelin. But mostly she listens to the LotR:FotR soundtrack and talks about herself in the third person

Garina does that too. It really irritates her friends!
The problem with the FOTR soundtrack, is that every time she listens to it, Garina sulks because she cannot see the movie!

EG just plays the movie in her mind while listening to the soundtrack. Especially at the Bridge of Kahzad-dum, she remembers the movie very clearly.

I keep annoying my friends by singing the songs (which I've memorized the words to) in art class for 75 minutes straight. It's not my fault, they're catchy! My friends are only annoyed because they're all Harry Potter fans and have never seen/read lotr. I've been trying to convert them but they are resisting strongly. Must redouble efforts...

Being poor (), I had to get the soundtrack from the library, and I love it all. My favorite is "Concerning Hobbits", "The Breaking of the Fellowship" and "May It Be". I especially like the words of "The Breaking of the Fellowship". Mehehe. It's fun to listen to while reading the book, up in a willow tree

You people should also get the Tolkien Ensambles' 'A night in Rivendell' and 'An Evening in Rivendell'
Genius.

Check the Tolkien Trails Rivdendell MP3 section; they have three samples of their work.

Totally random thought but don't you think all the trumpet Mordor music is kinda like the music of Ainur when Morgorth starts to change the music from the thought of Ilvatar (I know I spelt that wrong)? Endless repeating a tuneless, my favourite bits though!

Just thought I'd mention that the FotR soundtrack won the Grammy for best original movie score.

My favorite song from the movies is Evenstar. It is played when Aragorn is floating in the river in TTT. As for other music...
LED ZEPPELIN!!!! And cream, and the stones... Chili Peppers. Anyone ever hear of They Might Be Giants (TMBG)? I love them. |
