I took most of my snowed-in day Wednesday to listen to the rest of the Two Towers soundtrack. Wow...is all I can say...just simply...wow.
"Gollum's Song" is by far my favorite so far. It's such a sad and pitiful balad...it was bumming me out big time. It's a great interpretation of what was going on in Gollum's head when he betrayed Frodo and Sam. ("So now I'll be what I will be...no loyal friend was ever there for me.") He's so jealous of Frodo, but he also understands the weight of the ring and what it can do to a person. It's almost like he's trying very hard to be nice, but every time he gets close, his other personality takes over and turns him evil again.
Just simply amazing...this soundtrack has floored me.
