The elves in the Silmarillion are the best and the worst of what we are. That is why I love them.

Best thing about this song is that you have 3 perspectives. Feanor, Maedhros and the Host of Fingolfin

I love how underrated this is, only real fans are aware of it which makes listening this a much better experience.

Like many on here, this is the first I've seen this song, and it's amazing, of course. It covers a very critical, pivotal, and often glossed over moment of the Silmarillion. It's also amazing because of the perspective. At first I thought it was a bit like the song "Curse of Feanor." But it proved to be even better, because for one, this isn't just the perspective of Feanor- it's the perspective of Fingolfin, Fingon and their hosts as they realize they have been betrayed, and still dare the Helcaraxe. The lines about having been "betrayed by the insane Feanor," are especially beautiful to me- even as in the past, I've found his dauntless courage in the face of Melkor to be inspiring. This song, paints him to have lost his mind in his hate- which I think it's fair to say, the burning of the Teleri ships at Losgar prooves.

The only reason can fathom as to why this wasn't included in the main album, was the song 'Curse of Feanor' replaced it as the 'Feanor song' which is fair enough, I love that song. But seriously, this song is too good to be a hidden gem. It's one of the strongest choruses Blind Guardian have ever done.

If only Feanor didn’t have an anger problem

Amazon can only dream of making something this epic, Hail Blind Guardian! Hail Tolkien!

Somehow I've been missing this masterpiece for years, I just don't know why.. now I'm obsessed with tis one, can't get enough of it. Hidden gems from NIME, what possibly could be better

This album is such a treasure for us all fans of the Bard and The Silmarillion ❤

I wonder why Nightfall of Middle Earth album still hadn’t be updated with this song on official platforms, by the time it’s odd

This song is such a banger. No one should miss this song.

This is CRAZY, thank you for uploading!!

I love how the final bridge goes down In key at the end, rather than going up like in most songs.

This is UNDERRATED!

Holy Manwë, can't believe this is the first time I'm hearing this. How come it wasn't included in the original release, for heaven's sake?

1:38

I swear the first time I heard

Since nobody commented on this so far, I'll have to say it first: This is AWESOME!

I think this is one of the best songs on the album after listening to it 100 times

This is my favorite song from Blind Guardian
