I like it.

I didn't at first. But it really has grown on me! I can't picture how it will be used yet... Perhaps in a scene showing flashbacks to Gollum's former self?

Lyrics to Gollum's Song, best I can cypher it:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Where once was light, now darkness falls.
Where once was love, love is no more.

Don't say goodbye!
Don't say I didn't try!

These tears we cry, are falling rain
For all the lies you told us, the hurt, the blame.

And we will wait, to be so alone.
We are lost. We can never go home.

So in the end, I'll be what I will be
No loyal friend was ever there for me
Now we say goodbye, we say "you didn't try".

"These tears you cry have come too late
Take back the lies, the hurt the blame".

And you will wait, when you face the end alone
You are lost. You can never go home.

You are lost. You can never go home.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Maybe it'll be used for end credits, that's where May It Be ended up. It has grown on me, too. Very minor and sorrowful sung in a raspy, almost untrained, voice.

GOLLUM'S got a SONG?

First giving Arwen a bunch of important stuff to do not in the books to appease the simple-minded, such as the women of the fevered brow, then leaving stuff out (I know, to do justice to it they'd need to do a long series of shows roughly one hour per chapter, but anyway...), then lousing up the dialogue, and now GOLLUM'S got a SONG???

Why didn't he just remake "Casablanca" and call it "Lord of the Rings"? Somebody needs to castrate this Jackson guy with a rusty spoon...

OK, rant's over, leaving now...

I've been sitting here listening to this track over and over. I am really struck by the way the lyrics capture the duality of his character. Note how it keeps switching bewteen "I" "we" and "you."

"For all the lies you told us..." Is that referring to the ring? Or maybe Sauron?

"We are lost, we can never go home." Haunting stuff.
