Hey everyone,

I've finished an original song based on a chapter of The Silmarillion. Everything you need to know is on my webpage:

I sincerely hope everyone gets a chance to listen to this before I hit my bandwidth limit. At 20 megs, I know it's gonna be a pain for dialup users - just bear with it!

Oh yeah, and please post comments!

Thanks. It's not like you have to get all the way through the Sil to understand it, though! (the chapter that inspired it occurs relatively early)

In fact I haven't finished it either, but obviously I got through Flight of the Noldor!

Bump. :)

For those of you who couldn't get the song before my host quit working, it's available on http://www.indielaunch.com/orkybash now.

I'd love to get some comments on this!

Sure, why not?

As long as you don't sell it, I'm cool with it.

No prob!

Mind posting a review? Bonos-Girl or anyone else... I'd really like to know how I've done on this - especially from some people who've actually read the Silm!

Click the download link, when it gives you the opportunity to download say "save target as."

Oh yeah, and get winamp, realplayer really isn't that great. :)

www.winamp.com.

There's actually two versions, the new Winamp3 which is cool but it's really really buggy because AOL rushed it, or the old, more refined Winamp 2.x (at classic.winamp.com).

I'd personally go for winamp2, myself, at least until they have a chance to debug and optimize winamp3.
