Actually, these are probably those I consider the least Middle-Earthish. That's not to say I don't like the music: as I said above, it's very nice - everything - and those I mentioned are the ones I liked the most of all. But especially the Shire is one of the things that is the least close to the Shire as I imagine it, and the singing of the Elves is definitely totally out for me. To the movie, why not. To the book, no way.
