After having listened to the song many times while I was reading through the series, I noticed things in the song that seem like direct (or at least indirect) references to the text when I actually reached that section of the book (book five, the first half of Return of the King). My InterpretationWell, aside from its obvious reference to LotR, the Ringwraiths, I think it's about the battle at Minas Tirith, and the events surrounding it, if not in exact chronological order. Anyway, to put things simply, THIS IS BASED ON LORD OF THE RINGS, LORD OF THE RINGS IS BASED ON CELTIC MYTHOLOGY AND WORLD WAR 2, SO THIS SONG WILL HAVE REFERENCES TO CELTIC MYTHOLOGY, FRODO IS THE PRINCE OF PEACE, HE IS REVEALED AS A SYMBOL OF KIKG ARTHUR WHEN HE GOES OFF TO THE GREY HAVENS, AND TINKIWINKI THE BIG PURPLE TELLETUBBIE IS GAY Of couse, avalon is addressed in this song, though I have not completey broken down its usage. Frodo as the prince of peace, parallels the legends of king arthur, the great king, this is further addressed in LOTR, because Frodo goes off to the grey havens, the home of the immortals, who will help out the troubled human race in times of need, just as the gandalf did, this happens in a way much like Arthur is taken to avalon, the legend of arthur states that he is the once and future king, and will come back in mens time of need. Now reelplastictrees is not completely wrong, the song is about celtic mythology as well, read up on the band members, because if Lord of the Rings, and the occult, were there two favorite things, celtic mythology was the third, and it can also be argued that lord of the rings is based on celtic mythology, with a little WW2 spliced in, anyway, back to battle of evermore, The prince of peace is reavealed at the end of the third book as FRODO, read about the battle for the shire and you will understand, but more obviously he faces night alone when he sets off without the company to finish his task, of course directly after galadriel turns down his request for her to take the ring. General Commentfiver is correct, galadriel is the queen of light, this is obvious, you dont even have to read the book, watch the first movie, Frodo offers her the ring, she declines, and leaves, the prince of peace refference is more complicated. Oh now, oh now, oh now, oh, oh now, oh now, oh nowД«ring it, bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it The magic runes are writ in gold to bring the balance backД«ring it back, bring it back, bring it back, bring it back The pain of war cannot exceed the woe of aftermath Tired eyes on the sunrise, waiting for the eastern glow Oh, well, the night is long, the beads of time pass slow The apples of the valley hold the seeds of happiness I hear the horses' thunder down in the valley below
