I remember the first time I read "Lord of the Rings". I couldn't help but giggle because it seemed like every time the hobbits met another race, it was the "oldest" race ever. So I wrote the song for my first CD "Soul of a Harper" to make fun of this oddity.
Witty comments here.
This song is now available on the following CDs:

I really wish I had done a Lord Of The Rings song while the movies were still in theaters. This is cool.

Sir Marc! Well done! You just keep on churning out the Celtic folk/filk goodness, don't you? As for the song, I'd say you're only as old as you feel.

To be fair, it was actually a culture point that the Elves and Dwarves argued about being the "Oldest race". Tolkien talked about it in Silmarillian.
