It also turns a little dark and foreboding at the end. Now what on earth could that signal? Thanks to our friends at Tolkiendrim for the heads-up!<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>EDIT: It appears that the youtube link below is blocked from viewing in the USA. So is every other youtube link I could find. However, you can go to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehobbit.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Hobbit website<\/a> as they have it playing there, as background music. If it sounds very much like Concerning Hobbits at the start, don&#8217;t panic &#8212; it starts there, and then evolves very slowly around that theme. (There&#8217;s no actual video on the clip, just sound, so the effect is exactly the same no matter how you obtain it.)<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe width=\"510\" height=\"383\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bXeVi081DdI\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s another sample from Howard Shore&#8217;s score for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. &#8216;Old Friends&#8217; is very much&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[1772,132,221],"class_list":["post-64821","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-hobbitmovie","tag-howard-shore","tag-the-hobbit"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1tLoH-gRv","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64821","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=64821"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64821\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":64893,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64821\/revisions\/64893"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=64821"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=64821"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=64821"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
