    ""I kill where I wish and none dare resist. I laid low the warriors of old and their like is not in the world today. Then I was but young and tender. Now I am old and strong, strong strong... My armor is like tenfold shields, my teeth are swords, my claws spears, the shock of my tail is a thunderbolt, my wings a hurricane, and my breath death!" - Smaug

    On the one hand, this song is surely magnificent enough to win Smaug's approval.
    On the other hand, Smaug doesn't exactly have the best track record with bards...

    There really are no dragons that come close to the dragons of Arda. They aren't just large or powerful, it isn't that they breathe fire. They are arrogant, they are intelligent, they speak in curses, they breathe magic, they are magic. They are an arrogant and infernal form of divinity, and they know they are the pinnacle of all living things after the song ended in the ancient days.

    Wow. It's just astounding how you can sing so soft and gentle one moment and pull off being villainous the next with equal grace and ease. The lighting really set you on fire (no pun intended). I believed you were Smaug in this song. You also reminded me of Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty with that devilish look in your eyes and your commanding presence. Bravo!!!

    Queen under the mountain. A heart of melted gold. Her flesh silk and steel. Her arms, her wings, a thousands storms. Her eyes that of death. Her word that of stone. Her breath of mayhem. Her teeth, spears of pain. Her tounge silver of the heaviest flail. Her claws swords flame. Woe be he that dare steal from the Queen, woe be she who dare speak ill of the Queen. Dare not say her name, for to do so even thousands of roads beyond. She will hear and she will come. Her breath and iron teeth wreak havoc on ye. Fear her. fear the Queen under the mountain KARLIENE.

    Outstanding. I know Smaug is the bad guy (dragon) but this song flips that perspective for me, it makes hime slightly more likeable. It gives the listener a sense that they can do anything, makes them feel mighty and powerful. But hey, that is just my opinion of course.

    • @shoulderpyro
      @shoulderpyro 6 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Mythical Dragon Smaug never was evil like Sauron or the orcs, so.. from that point of view he wasn't a bad guy. Even going as far to talk with Bilbo instead of just burning him on sight.
      He just followed his Dragon instincts to lay claim to a treasure hoard, and the dwarves were simply in his way. ^-^

      And again. "Dragons covet gold, with a dark and fierce desire". Putting in extremely bluntly, it was just a 'coincidence' there was a Dwarven city on top of all that gold. Smaug never cared about the city itself, and just wanted the gold. Can't really blame a creature for staying true to its nature.

    I like what you did with the military drumming, it's an original approach to a song about a dragon. Also is that pan pipes providing the tune tune a 1:55, if so that's amazing. You've taken quite a few differing styles and combined them together expertly. Well Done

    Beautiful beyond comprehension in performance and lyricism. I can imagine that song being used for a compilation dedicated to Smaug. In fact, strangely enough, this song reminded me of an old nightmare I had of him over a year ago...
    P.S. Honey, I think you meant Cumberbatch

      Haha, it was a cheeky play on words actually, us 'Cumberbatch" fans often call ourselves 'Cumberbitches", I think it's now been upgraded to the much nicer 'Cumbercookies" so I think I'll edit that.
      Thank you for the lovely, encouraging comments on my song. I'm so happy you liked it.

    Karliene, your song brings the inspiration of the villians of the books I read to Life as much as I write stories. The music itself is so magnificent and remarkable. I want to thank you for writing this whole song.

  • @parasiticshadow6028

    This is amazing! It really feels like it's Smaug talking, even though Smaug was voiced by a male in the film (and Benedict did a great job, don't get me wrong). But I can't help hitting the replay button. I wonder what it would have been like if Smaug was voiced by one of us females? ^.^

    Did you know he actually doesn't like that term? He said on an interview he thought it was degrading to his fans. He prefers Cumbercookies, or in a collective a Cumberbatch ;) I love this song though! Love being subscribed to you.

      I was just about to say that......oddly enough. But I do LOVE this song and the Celtic feel......Karliene has a lovely voice and this song is PERFECT for Smaug. :)

    Wonderful and stunning as always ;) I appreciate your lyrics and you look great as smaug :D
    The eastern music style sounds like the tale of smaug spread through the world and was adpated in a song - like the songs in Song of Ice and Fire.

    Really epic! Imagine Smaug would sing it in the movie - this song with his deep voice...
    But of course your performance is also great, Karliene. I tried to sing the song, too, but my voice always sounds soft and nice, not like a dragon ;-).
