 Into the West (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Into the West" is a song written by Fran Walsh, Howard Shore and former Eurythmics member Annie Lennox, and performed by Lennox herself during the closing credits of the movie The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
The song was conceived as a bittersweet Elvish lament for those who have sailed across the Sundering Sea.
In the commentaries and documentaries accompanying the extended DVD edition of the movie, director Peter Jackson explains that the song was partially inspired by the premature death from cancer of a young New Zealand filmmaker named Cameron Duncan whose work had impressed Jackson and his team.

 [King Black Acid]Loves a Long Song   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Rather than relaxing into standard pop form, though, Riddle and company interrupt their hooks with brief melodic interludes and space-outs, and close the song with a slow fade into gentle, reflective guitar lines and drifting synthesizers.
They released the Into the Sun EP a year previously as a warm-up, but Loves a Long Song is really the first band full-length and a departure, in a sense.
Granted, most are not your average verse-chorus-verse songs, and one or two of the tunes are a bit thin in the melody department, but the tradeoff is well worth it when the music is as involving as this.

 American Popular Song: A Brief History
Work songs, hymns, love songs, dance tunes, humorous songs, and parodies—such songs provide a record of American history, serving both as historical sources and also as subjects of historical investigation.
American song in the second half of the nineteenth century underwent a tremendous commercial expansion, which extended into the twentieth century and indeed has not abated today.
This commercial expansion meant that more songs were composed, performed, produced, and consumed in the United States, as well as exported to, and received from, the rest of the world.

 Steel Guitar - Speedy West - Song Listings
West's sometimes histrionic and cartoon-like playing is easily recognizable and comes out of his total command of the instrument.
West's innovative use of bebop licks and phrasing is certainly heard often on this 1960 solo record for Capitol.
And thankfully, West never overdoes the guitar pyrotechnics; his occasional zinger and slinky-toy flourishes are always dropped strategically.

 Lullaby For The Working Class "Song"
In a time when most pop music is, metaphorically speaking, delivered with the speed and depth of e-mail, then Song, the third album from Lullaby For The Working Class, is like a letter that took a long slow journey from America’s heartland to your door.
Now, as if a journey were simply being resumed, Song opens with the sampled sound of the Lullaby van on the road, and it also serves as a haunting coda at album’s end.
The album was produced back home in a rather atypical fashion: the songs of Song were recorded in sequence, so it became more of a seamless performance than just a collection of tunes.
