Gil-galad was an Elven-king.
Of him the harpers sadly sing

king of all noldor and allies through the second age
after his death it might have gone to elrond or galadriel/celeborn
or some other
but instead the elves decided they didnt need a king over all of them

(a realization that if it had occured a few thousand years earlier
might have reduced the incentive of feanor to revolt)

Gil-galad was an Elven-king. Of him the harpers sadly sing: the last whose
realm was fair and free between the Mountains and the Sea. His sword was
long, his lance was keen, his shining helm afar was seen; the countless
stars of heaven's field were mirrored in his silver shield.

But long ago he rode away, and where he dwelleth none can say,
for into darkness fell his star, in Mordor where the shadows are.

I have it memorized!
