Departing from London, Sheeran and his manager, Stuart, arrived in Wellington within 48 hours. Jackson sent a message to Sheeran, who was in the Mediterranean island of Ibiza attending a wedding ceremony, asking if he would be interested in the project, which Sheeran accepted. Following Katie's advice, they decided to tap Sheeran. In late 2013, Jackson and Fran Walsh, who co-produced and co- wrote the film, were searching for an artist who would write and record the song. Jackson, having learned Sheeran's regard toward his films, met him over lunch the following day where they exchanged email addresses. Jackson was introduced to Sheeran's music by his daughter, Katie, who attended Sheeran's concert in Wellington, New Zealand, in March 2013. On 5 November 2013, Sheeran announced his involvement in the soundtrack in a series of online posts, which included his thanking Jackson for the opportunity. It was the first book Sheeran's father read to him as a child, and the first book that he read himself. His grandfather owns a first edition copy. Sheeran has a lifelong devotion to the novel of Tolkien. The Hobbit follows the quest of a home-loving hobbit, a fictional, diminutive humanoid, to win a share of the treasure guarded by the dragon, Smaug. Released on 13 December 2013, it is the second installment in the three-part film series based on the novel The Hobbit by J.
"I See Fire" plays over the first section of the closing credits of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, an epic fantasy adventure film directed by New Zealand filmmaker Peter Jackson. "I See Fire" was nominated for a Satellite Award for Best Original Song. It entered the UK Singles Chart at number 13 and reached number one in New Zealand on its sixth week, Sheeran's first number-one single there. Its music video was released the same day. The song was released as a digital download on 5 November 2013. Sheeran saw the film, wrote the song, and recorded most of the track elements on the same day. The Hobbit director, Peter Jackson, asked Sheeran to write a song for the movie after Jackson's daughter, Katie, suggested Sheeran. It was commissioned for the soundtrack of the 2013 film The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, where it was played over the closing credits.
" I See Fire" is a song by the English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran.
