| I liked the tune of this one...made me think of hobbits at a country dance, though I guess that wasn't the intention. So this must be from "The Rebel"...which someday I hope to find time to read! Author Reply: I think you'll like "The Rebel"; the song is actually from the sequel to "Rebel", called "A Small and Passing Thing". One good thing about "Rebel" is it's fairly short. (Around here we like to joke about "A Lo-o-o-o-ong and Passing Thing"... but of course it's worth all the moments it takes to read it! LOL) Author Reply: p.s. Your thought of a country dance isn't so far off the mark. In such societies, it was common to take an already-familiar tune and set new words to it. That way your audience already had half their work done, if you were leading a sing-along, for they only had to learn new words! | |

| These songs are all incredible. Thank you for these wonderful masterpieces that I will continue to treasure for a long time to come. Author Reply: Thank you for your kind words! Music and hobbits go together so well, I think. | |
