Hoď mi klacík! Veselá Romantická Milostná I. věk Epická

However, it’s quite real. During summer 2014, while writing “The Duel of Sauron and Finrod Felagund”, Elsa told me a cute story about a walk in the woods in three: a couple in love and a dog who longs for attention. Everything the song is about was already there - throwing sticks, hiding in the grass and dog naivety. There's even a photo of this female dog pulling a stick three times longer than herself. Although Huan was undoubtedly a dignified and wise dog, I couldn't resist and had to incorporate the story into a song.

The melody is quite simple, but even here I played a bit with the harmony. The verses of Beren and Lúthien are melodically similar to those of Huan, but are harmonized in a different key; In their part, Beren and Lúthien, despite the currently happy moment, feel the burden of the approaching final phase of the expedition for Silmarils, while Huan is simply a happy dog who does not worry about anything and enjoys life.

Daniela, (translation and editing: Elsa)

I just want to wander aimlessly through woods and meadows alike,
dream in awe, along my dog and with my beloved…
Huan: Throw me a stick, Beren!
