Laurelin and Telperion - Two Trees of Valinor
And as they watched, upon the mound there came forth two slender shoots; and silence was over all the world in that hour, nor was there any other sound save the chanting of Yavanna. Under her song the saplings grew and became fair and tail, and came to flower; and thus there awoke in the world the Two Trees of Valinor. Of all things which Yavanna made they have most renown, and about their fate all the tales of the Elder Days are woven.
The one had leaves of dark green that beneath were as shining silver, and from each of his countless flowers a dew of silver light was ever falling, and the earth beneath was dappled with the shadow of his fluttering leaves. The other bore leaves of a young green like the new-opened beech; their edges were of glittering gold.

During the Fall of Constantinople in 1453, some sources describe a light coming out of the dome of the Hagia Sophia. Some interpreted this as the Holy Spirit abandoning the city. Modern historians speculate it may have been atmospheric electricity like St. Elmo's Fire.

Songs you didn't know were covers
Here's some songs I personally didn't know were covers:
Blinded by the Light made famous by Manfred Mann, originally by Bruce Springsteen
Red Red Wine made famous by UB40, originally by Neil Diamond
Girls Just Want to Have Fun made famous by Cyndi Lauper, originally by Robert Hazard
These were some of the biggest surprises to me. What are some songs you didn't realize were actually covers?
