"Sheeran saw the film, wrote the song, and recorded most of it on the same day." Fuck me. The guy is just incredible.

I remember sitting in the cinema at the end of hobbit everyone walking out, me just sitting there enjoying the song!

I will never understand how this didn’t even get at least nominated for Best Original Song at the Oscars.

i can hear this song 1000 times .. its still one of the best i've ever heard xD

My dad and I saw THE HOBBIT in the theater. He was never one for these types of movies, but he came anyway. I remember this song at the end during credits. It was beautiful. My dad passed away in 2017. I will always cherish the memory I had with him that day.

Ten years later and I'm still in love with this song.

"O misty eye of the mountain below" and "If this is to end in fire" gave me goosebumps

that monent when the movie ends and the song plays

This is my Son's favorite song. He loves Ed Sheeran's voice. He is 24, with severe Autism, Nonverbal. He watches this song on repeat. I would love to take him to see him one day. I know he would love it. I think he finds Ed's voice very peaceful and calming. When he has a bad day, we listen to Ed Sheeran. Thanks for sharing. Be blessed.🌹

Who here 2024 ?

Happy 10th anniversary to The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug.

This is DEFINITELY one of Ed Sheeran's most underrated songs.

Ed sheeran is a fucking genius. He wrote this song by watching one of the scenes in the movie and within a week he had the full song written on his hands. Literally a LEGEND.

March 2021 and still going strong. Who else its in love with this.

Anyone that still listen to this masterpiece?

It's actually stupid how talented this dude is.

I'm a metalhead, and generally not a fan of Sheeran, but this guy is musically fucking awesome on this!

You know it's good when it gives you chills right away.

The way this song hits at the ending of the hobbit 2........just no words to describe it

I don't know why some of you are complaining about it, I bet even Tolkien himself would like this song. It fits the movie perfectly!

Lyrics Oh, misty eye of the mountain below Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke Keep watching over Durin's sons If this is to end in fire Then we should all burn together Watch the flames climb high into the night Calling out father oh Stand by and we will Watch the flames burn auburn on The mountain side And if we should die tonight Then we should all die together Raise a glass of wine for the last time Calling out father oh Prepare as we will Watch the flames burn auburn on The mountain side Desolation comes upon the sky Now I see fire Inside the mountain I see fire Burning the trees And I see fire Hollowing souls I see fire Blood in the breeze And I hope that you remember me Oh, should my people fall Then surely I'll do the same Confined in mountain halls We got too close to the flame Calling out father oh Hold fast and we will Watch the flames burn auburn on The mountain side Desolation comes upon the sky Now I see fire Inside the mountain I see fire Burning the trees I see fire Hollowing souls I see fire Blood in the breeze And I hope that you remember me And if the night is burning I will cover my eyes For if the dark returns Then my brothers will die And as the sky is falling down It crashed into this lonely town And with that shadow upon the ground I hear my people screaming out Now I see fire Inside the mountains I see fire Burning the trees I see fire Hollowing souls I see fire Blood in the breeze I see fire (oh you know I saw a city burning out) (fire) And I see fire (feel the heat upon my skin, yeah) (fire) And I see fire (uh-uh-uh-uh) (fire) And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side Written by Ed Sheeran • Copyright © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, Universal Music Publishing Group

After hearing this for a thousand times. This song is still on fire.

The goosebumps I felt in 2014 is still the same in the year 2022. Fell in love with Ed Sheeran first with this song. I just can't imagine it has been 8 years already since he first released this song. I'm enjoying this so much!!!

I think J.R.R. Tolkien would be really proud with everything what was/is being done with his novels by Peter Jackson, Warner Bros., actors and everyone else who participated in creation of these masterful movies

Ed Sheeran makes a good Hobbit

10 years later and i still absolutely love that little riff hes playing around with at the beginning

This masterpiece is 8 years already? EIGHT YEARS???

I don't know about anyone else but... for me, this is one of the best songs ever written for a movie track. Every lyric is about the movie and so captured the mood while still leaving you wondering about the next movie. Just fantastic and easily one of my favorites. Last time I was this moved by a song so perfect for a movie was Queen and The Highlander movie.

Oh, misty eye of the Mountain below Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke Keep watching over Durin's sons If this is to end in fire, then we should all burn together Watch the flames climb high, into the night Calling out father, oh, stand by and we will Watch the flames burn auburn on, the mountain side (High) And if we should die tonight, we should all die together Raise a glass of wine, for the last time Calling out father, oh, prepare as we will Watch the flames burn on and on, the mountainside Desolation comes upon the sky Now I see fire, inside the mountain I see fire, burning the trees And I see fire, hollowing souls I see fire, blood in the breeze And I'll hope that you'll remember me Oh, should my people fall then, surely I'll do the same Confined in mountain halls, we got too close to the flame Calling out father, oh, hold fast and we will Watch the flames burn auburn on, the mountain side Desolation comes upon the sky Now I see fire, inside the mountain I see fire, burning the trees And I see fire, hollowing souls I see fire, blood in the breeze And I'll hope that you'll remember me And if the night is burning, I will cover my eyes For if the dark returns, then my brothers will die And as the sky is falling down, it crashed into this lonely town and with that shadow upon the ground, I hear my people screaming out (Now) Now I see fire, inside the mountain I see fire, burning the trees And I see fire, hollowing souls I see fire, blood in the breeze I see fire (oh you know I saw a city burning out) And I see fire (feel the heat upon my skin, yeah) And I see fire (fire) And I see fire burn auburn on, the mountain side

I legit started crying the moment the credits started to roll and this song was crooner into my ears.

It’s 2022 and I still come back to this

Ed Sheeran watched the film, wrote the song and then recorded it all in one day...that is talent.

"And if we should die tonight We should all die together Raise a glass of wine for the last time" I love it. ♥

As the movie ended... The song starts at the credit... Goosebumps!

‘the hobbit’ trilogy is one of my comfort movie series. it was wonderfully done and has gotten me through a tough time right now. And i listen to this so on repeat for at least and hour at least once a week. this song perfectly explains how much the dwarves are willing to risk to take back their home.

Oh, misty eye of the mountain below Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke Keep watching over Durin's son If this is to end in fire Then we should all burn together Watch the flames climb high into the night Calling out father, stand by and we will Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side And if we should die tonight Then we should all die together Raise a glass of wine for the last time Calling out father, prepare as we will Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side Desolation comes upon the sky Now I see fire, inside the mountain I see fire, burning the trees And I see fire, hollowing souls I see fire, blood in the breeze And I hope that you'll remember me Oh, should my people fall Then surely I'll do the same Confined in mountain halls We got too close to the flame Calling out father hold fast and we will Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side Desolation comes upon the sky Now I see fire, inside the mountain I see fire, burning the trees I see fire, hollowing souls I see fire, blood in the breeze And I hope that you'll remember me And if the night is burning I will cover my eyes For if the dark returns then My brothers will die And as the sky's falling down It crashed into this lonely town And with that shadow upon the ground I hear my people screaming out Now I see fire, inside the mountain I see fire, burning the trees I see fire, hollowing souls I see fire, blood in the breeze I see fire, oh you know I saw a city burning (fire) I see fire, feel the heat upon my skin (fire) And I see fire (fire) And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side

This should have won an Academy Award..

dude has got some f**king pipes on him...good lord what an amazing singer

Apparently he just walked in there and about 15 mins later, had come up with this song. Whatever anyone thinks of Ed and his music, that is in an incredible talent.

Its been 6 years !!!??? Omg it felt like it was so recent

- Adele: "Set fire to the rain!" - Halestorm: "I am the fire!!!" - Ed Sheeran: "I see fire!! :o" - Pink: "Yea, it looks just like fire" -- Billy Joel: "We didn't start the fire."

Everytime I listen to this I’m instantly transported to Middle Earth and immersed in the struggles and triumphs of one of the most fantastical magical journeys ever undertaken by any band of brothers real or imaginary and this is to me a truly special experience. Thank you Ed & all your collaborators on this epic rendition.

The fact that this is WB's most viewed video

How this song didn't get an oscar nomination is beyond me.....

How was this song not nominated for best original song at the Oscars this year?

Dang....as soon as he starts singing it's like a radio coming out of his mouth. What a great, awesome song.

After 8 years I have only one word Beautiful

ed is the only singer i know of that can provide a acoustic feeling like this

That crescendo though

2024 and still so in love with this masterpiece

its crazy how he really nailed the vibe of the song…i always get emotional about the hobbit whenever i hear this cus the lyrics he used perfectly fits the series

I played this with a thunderstorm sound playing in the background. It was awesome.

There is no musician that could produce a better soundtrack for that particular movie. Not only is the music beautiful... But it is very atmospheric for the trilogy.

„All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us” Gandalf

As a Christian...that's Soo resonates with me..."Keep careful watch of my Brother's souls...." 📖✝️🐑👑🫒

Everyone in the comments be like: - Books over movies - His voice is not made for the song - Harry Potter and I'm like " He freakin' learnt to play the violin just for this song !!"

Zwykły rudy koleś pokazał, że nie trzeba wyglądać jak Timberlake, żeby zabłysnąć. Dziwi mnie tylko, że (póki co) tak mało osób go słucha. No, jednym słowem - Wymiótł scenę dotychczasowego show biznesu...I tak trzymać!

Mmmmaannnn!!!!! To hear Ed sing that song makes you feel as if you were standing besides them as Smaug brought the Dragon Fire 🔥

Wonderful performance, honestly this guy deserves all the recognition he's got through the years. He's awesome!

I See Awesomeness.

Massive Film, Massive song.

I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH! I LOVE HOBBIT AND LOTR I cant believe its 8 years... 2021?

This is the best song in the LOTR movies. Tolkien would have been puffing his pipe to this one.

This is absolutely the best movie soundtrack this year.

Lyrics: Oh, misty eye of the mountain below Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke Keep watching over Durin's sons If this is to end in fire Then we should all burn together Watch the flames climb high into the night Calling out father, oh Stand by and we will Watch the flames burn auburn on The mountain side (Aiai) And if we should die tonight Then we should all die together Raise a glass of wine for the last time Calling out father oh Prepare as we will Watch the flames burn auburn on The mountain side Desolation comes upon the sky Now I see fire Inside the mountains I see fire Burning the trees And i see fire Hollowing souls I see fire Blood in the breeze And I hope that you'll remember me Oh, should my people fall then Surely I'll do the same Confined in mountain halls We got too close to the flame Calling out father, oh Hold fast and we will Watch the flames burn auburn on The mountain side Desolation comes upon the sky Now I see fire Inside the mountains I see fire Burning the trees And I see fire Hollowing souls I see fire Blood in the breeze And I hope that you'll remember me And if the night is burning I will cover my eyes For if the dark returns then My brothers will die And as the sky's falling down It crashed into this lonely town And with that shadow upon the ground I hear my people screaming out And I see fire Inside the mountains I see fire Burning the trees I see fire Hollowing souls I see fire Blood in the breeze I see fire (oh you know i saw a city burning) {fire} And I see fire (feel the heat upon my skins) {fire} And I see fire (Oohoohooh) {fire} And I see fire burn auburn on the mountainside ~FIN~ I know I am not the first to post the lyrics of a song, especially a song like "I See Fire". I just want to give the opportunity to those who haven't already heard/read the lyrics to enjoy them :). If you see any mistakes please comment, not for me but for Ed :D.Thank you and Enjoy. -Philip

Hauntingly beautiful.

The riff he plays at the start of this has been in my head for years… I need to find that

The best film and song..I've ever seen..❤Gandalf

When your upset and ed just makes you feel so happy

Still my favorite Ed Sheeran song. Its just so chillingly beautiful

Salute to Tolkien, whose epic stories inspired generations all over the world, and the universal truths that fed this wonderful music and lyrics. I saw the film again today, and could only see Gaza now - October/November 2023 and who knows how much longer.

Surely one of the best songs ever written for a fantasy movie.

For people saying this song is boring or too slow.. well it is about Smaug coming and destroying everything. Sorry that not every song is not fast paced and filled with lyrics lesser than the beat. That is what the song is about..the lyrics..the story. It is a depressing song.. not suppose to be happy.

Ed is the greatest musician of all time.

I love this so original man seeing him in the studio

Ed sheeran's voice can't be given a definition. It's amaaazing.

Its so hard to believe hes the same age as Justin beiber. So much more maturity and talent. He deserves even more fame! Ed Sheeran is amazing!!

Am I the only person who thinks he has a voice like a angel?

Can't believe I just found this 😳. One of the most talented musicians ever.

3 years later,this song still touched me😍

When I watched the Hobbit.. in the end of the movie the lights didn't turn on until this song ended and everyone stayed at their seats to listen to this song. It's so amazing *-*

I may love the entire song, but the quality and lightness of the beautiful solo at the beginning of the video and the first 40 seconds are priceless.

It's Feb 2021 who's still listening to this masterpiece?

am i the only one that had to cry? i hope not esp. " And if we should die tonight Then we should all die together Raise a glass of wine for the last time " destroyed my soul

after the movie I listen to this. Just fell in love with the music, the best end to a fantastic movie!

I was living in New Zealand in 2015 can’t have been long after this was written, it makes me wonder why I ever came home

Edsheeran is precious, his talent is amazing.

0:13 "oh hello" ❤

killing the replay button

I am from Central Asia, my husband and I love this song and the movie The Hobbit! We revise every year the film The Hobbit all parts, and then the Lord of the Rings. I have listened to this song performed by Ed Sheeran 1000 times and I still like it😍😍😍❤❤❤

Recorded the elements in ONE DAY..the talent of this lad is infinite

How can one be so talented... 💗🔥✌🏼️

This guy really was born to make hit songs.

😊 Ten years already, since we saw fire inside the Mountain for the first time, and I just need to say to the World how much I love The Hobbit and this song!! 😍 Thank you!!! 🙏 🙏🙏👏👏👏🤗

Ein Hammersong!

He seems sweet and humble i really love his music.

I would not mind if the world ended to this song. Like imagine Ed Sheeran singing this song while the world is ending, that would be perfect.

This is probably my all time favorite song. I will never understand why it wasn't a bigger hit. It gives me chills!!

The guitar is so beautiful. The instant it starts I get full body shivers
