I went to Vista CD shop at Pearl's Centre (beside Outram MRT). Their CDs are really cheap. They are located behind the SBS transit Bus Stop. ROTK Soundtrack only at S$16.00! Considering CD-Rama seeling it at S$18.90.

I am still listening to the OST. But it's very good! Love Track 16: The End Of All Things! This must be when the ring is about to be dropped into the lava pits of Mount Doom!!!!

S$16.90 is a very good price. Are there any goodies (eg. miniature character cards) included?

BTW, what's OST?

OST is original soundtrack. what does the cover of the CD look like? I know there are a few different covers for the CD.

sounds great......might be getting it too....is it better than the fellowship, two towers?

Hi hi... I typed the price wrongly. It is actually CHEAPER!!!!

Only S$16.00 ONLY!!

this is the cover (It's a Code 1 ):

You can find quite a lot of CD at that price in Chinatown... if you know where to find.

Darn, sometimes you can even find OST for $14.

In my opinion, the ROTK Soundtrack pales in comparison to the FOTR and TTT soundtracks. In FOTR, you can really get a sense of Middle Earth as it used to be, with strong themes for all the inhabitants. Ethereal and mysterious theme for the Elves in Rivendell and Lothlorien, carefree and mischeivous theme for the Hobbits in Hobbiton and resonant, cavernous theme for the Dwarves in the mines of Moria. Even the Nazgul have their haunting devilish chase theme.

In TTT, you can feel the music shift more towards the realm of man, lots of grandoise, war horn-blowing type themes for Rohan. Even Gollum has his slimy, scheming theme towards the end.

But for ROTK ..... the music feels so alien. The ending portion of track three is nice, they used it in the trailer when Gandalf is riding down the leader of the Nazgul, so it's really cool music to speed in your car to .... but that aside, except for the occasional (and somewhat bastardised) hints of familiar themes, I can't seem to identify with anything else. And what is it with all the weird singing ?

what card did u guys got??? the double sided card in the CD

where got card?

Singapore's one dun have~

but i got.......one side is arwen and the other is king theo....

I like to get the special edition too. This time round they included a dvd tt jacked up the price to $44.90. The precious 2 Special Edition OST didn't cost me more than $26 each

Nevertheless, managed to get the *ahem* version (...I'll still buy the original ). I find this quite good. Noticed tt Howard shore will introduce a new theme in succession to the unfolding of the story.

The Minas Tirith theme works great here, and I think it was used in the trailers too. Another Oscar for him? I wish the songs sung by Pippin and Aragorn were longer though....

saw HMV selling the OST for all three films for 62 bucks or so... then went gramophone.. they are selling theirs for i think 56 bucks..

I'm selling my limited edition green leatherette cover ROTK soundtrack for S$38 if anyone's interested. it comes with the CD and DVD.

Anyone know where in Sg can still get the LOTR Trilogy OST?

daemon, you saying there's another trilogy packing?

i think you are refering to the same thing that mcbleea is talking about. it's the trilogy soundtrack...

I went to HMV yesterday and i cant find the ROTK EE With Minas Tirith Environment!!!!
I WAnna GET!

yah, why you want to buy from hmv? not like elsewhere sold out...

also, why you now then buy? save money till now ah?

yes getting off topic already. there is the rotk ee thread. actually there's also a Q & A thread i remember.
