A Song of Lùthien

[IdrilFalastari]

Loreena McKennit is a wonderful musician, and her song, "The Dark Night of the Soul" (which I am listening to at this moment) just struck me as perfect for Lùthien, when "long ago in the Hidden Kingdom, she laid her hand in his."

So you compare this singer to Luthien? Actually she sings very beautiful but I think Luthien has a voice like Liv Tyler in Arwen's Song, I don't know why but because that song dosen't have video, I mean Arwen realted I've always imagined that Luthien is singing and about Arwen's voice I've always imagined it like Amy Lee's voice (she sings the vocals in the rock band - Evanescence and she's my fav singer ever!!)...
Here're links when you can hear these voices:
For Liv's song - www.tevildiel.com/music/Arwens_Song.zip
For some of Evanescnece (pick 'My Immortal' - my fav !) - www.evanescence.windwhispers.net/index2.html

No no no, I didn't mean that, I meant the SONG is perfect for her.

the link that you have sent is where Aragorn tries to cure Eowyn's arm in the Return of the King... I have been looking for that part of the film and for the voice..to listen to it I used windows movie maker and cut it from the film:) thank you very much for the zip file..

Idril, that DOES sound a lot like Lúthien! Very interesting find!

I never pictured Loreena McKennit SOUNDING like Lùthien, but I thought, wow, she could be singing about her and Beren when they met secretly in Doriath.

She is a fantastic musician and that song is perfect for Luthien. I think Luthien's voice is someone yet to be found though...haven't listened to anything that I think is perfect Luthien yet.
