a few months ago, but then these were said to be unfounded. I would love to have another male voice, for this earlier trilogy, as we had three female voices for LOTR. The Hobbit is an all male world, isn't it? As far as I know, the soundtrack choices (and the ones about the songs and their interpreters/authors) are usually very late in the production, generally in the middle of Autumn. We have plenty to be looking forward before that. And finally, yes, I would really love to see the sketches for BOFA's end credits and I am pretty sure we'll get them since the credits of ROTK were unbelievably beautiful.

I, too, think it should end with this song...

since the final scene has got to be set in Bag End - right? With Bilbo reaching for the tobacco jar, etc "Roads Go Ever On" is just perfect to illustrate that the story continues in the original trilogy...and I wouldn't mind Sting or Peter Gabriel, either! As much as I love Enya, and wouldn't be too disappointed if she got the job, I can't see it, personally, with her having done FotR - they wouldn't want the same artist "back-to-back", surely?

that was absolutely breathtakingly beautiful I could easily see this working, though like others have said, I have a feeling PJ already knows what he wants to do for it But this one instantly captures my attention as I immediately visualized Bilbo and Gandalf looking across the Desolation of Smaug and reflecting on what all has happened, with Bilbo's face possibly tear stained or at the least both of them being grim and serious and reflective (or possibly Bilbo finally sitting in his much missed armchair and lights his pipe then sits back, and this beginning as he says the last line of the trilogy- "Now that was an adventure to remember.", or something like that

As the two previous End Titles tracks were also sung by men.

That is one reason why I immediately thought of Sting.

Lorde. We need another Kiwi singer in the mix! PJ could go back to his daughter again for ideas just like he did for DoS!

Well, I don't think Jackson has thought about the details of the end-credits...

I am not as keen as maintaining an all-male voice-cast for TH films as others and do not really see the need to maintain that much continuity. And since I think Loreena Mckenitt's songs has one of the most Tolkienian feel I have ever heard, I would love to see her take up the reins.

Her voice is beautiful and it does have exactly the right feel for Tolkien.

I can also not help myself to think that "Use well the days" is not too far from the feeling the song of Bot5A should capture. Voice of McKenitt plus a song that captures a similar feeling and - in the best case - uses "The Road goes ever on" would be perfect.
