I would think they would count as tangible, wouldn't they? Elves I mean; not all at the same time of course but since they are individually, I would have thought they would also be collectively.......but oh I don't know... and it ain't my question

Um, how about the elven people as a whole? Or any people? I don't understand the question, if you mean does it have anything to do with elven people as a whole the answer would be: The book does not specify.
the light of Earendil's star? No, but the you're close. The Lay of Leithian?No If not, ist it a Lay? No The Lament for Gandalf? No Is it a song? No Err .... stab in the dark: "In western lands" Sam's song in Cirith Ungol? No
