Peter Hollens has entertained us with music from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, and he has now performed all of the end credit songs from each of our journeys into Middle-earth. “The Last Goodbye,” the end credits song from The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies was the last piece of the puzzle.
Just like the first time we heard Billy Boyd’s original recording of the song, we have tears in our eyes thinking that this might be his last song from Middle-earth.
Here are links to Peter Hollens’ entire Middle-earth Collection:
To check out more of his amazing repertoire, visit his YouTube channel and purchase his music on iTunes and Loudr. (And please, if you can think of more Middle-earth song’s you’d like him to cover, suggest it in the video comments or on his Facebook and Twitter!)
If you want to hear more covers of “The Last Goodbye”, check out the following posts by Middle-earth News reporter Myla:

Lily’s first experience with Tolkien was when the eccentric Mrs. H performed all of the characters from The Hobbit in her seventh grade class. In high school, she felt obliged to decline a second date with a boy who said he had no interest in reading The Lord of the Rings. In college, she unwisely decided to reread her beloved copy of The Hobbit during finals week, with only semi-disastrous results.
When not writing for Middle-earth News, Lily tries not to unnerve her coworkers and family with her extreme geekery, but somehow, Star Wars, Star Trek, Sherlock, Merlin, Doctor Who, The Princess Bride, Back to the Future, superheroes, Disney movies, and of course, Tolkien, seem to have relevance in EVERY conversation.
