Great songs, Arathorn!
Thanks guys. . .I don't know how I survived being away from entmoot for so long Yes, I have always wanted to say Sam's line, Arathorn! Okay, I must tear myself away from the moot for a while to finish those songs.

Okay, here's the first one. My next targets for Tolkienizing are Two of Us (Three of Us), Norwegian Wood (I once had a Ring, or should I say, it once had me. . .), and Michelle (Preciousss) But here is We Can Work it Out:
We Can Work it Out (originally by the Beatles) Gandalf: (to Saruman) Try to see it my way, do I have to keep on talking ‘til I can't go on Why see it your way? If Middle-earth will fall to ruin before too long We can work it out, we can work it out Think of what you're saying. You will get it wrong and you can't get the One Ring Think of what I'm saying, we can work it out and get it straight and tell Sauron goodnight We can work it out. We can work it out Life has been so long but now there's no time for turning to evil my friend We have always thought that it's a crime so I will ask you once again. Try to see it my way. Only then you will see that I am right and you are wrong Why see it your way? ‘Cause Middle-earth will fall to ruin before too long We can work it out, we can work it out (repeat this two more times. . .)

Great songs, EG and DS! BTW, REM's been together for more than 20 yrs. I do like the rendition of Everybody Hurts by the Corrs. (never thought I'd make people tearry-eyed about Balrog)
Anyway, I forgot to do a song by Madonna. Here's one that Arwen would've sung in Lorien late in the Fourth Age: This Used To Be Lothlorien (Originally "TUTB My Playground" written by Madonna and Shep Pettibone) This used to be Lothlorien (used to be) This used to be my elven dream This used to be the wood I ran to Whenever I asked to leave Rivendell Why did they have to sail And why do they always pray Elbereth Let your head face west They've passed the test And left, time's too short And before you know You're King is old And your world is fading Don't hold on to the past Well that's too much to ask This used to be Lothlorien (used to be) This used to be my elven dream This used to be the wood I ran to Whenever I asked to leave Rivendell Why did they have to sail And why do they always pray Gilthoniel But I wish my kin Were here with me Well if there's hope yet I can see their face In this secret place They're not just a memory Say goodbye to the Fourth Age (the dream) Those are more than mere adage (Not just a page) This used to be Lothlorien (used to be) This used to be the Noldor's joy This used to be the wood we ran to That no Dark Lord in the world would dare destroy This used to be Lothlorien (used to be) This used to be our elven dream This used to be the wood we ran to I wish Estel's standing here with me

That was really good. Well not actually cry, the last thing that made me cry was standing on a pin, barefoot. But it was very cute. How do you get so good at them?? I've run out of material, really unless I go for using the same bands, or stereophonics, and thats annoying.
I might write another soon.

Good songs! Very good songs, Arathorn and D.S.!
Oh. I still have to work on those other songs I said I was writing. .

I love REM, I have the Out Of Time album and I listen to it a lot!
Does anybody remember the single (last year) The Great Beyond? That is one of my favourite all time songs. Please can somebody with more talent than me (eg, anybody) do a LotR version of it. The title is quite appropriate, but the content is mad (bending spoons, pushing elephants (oliphaunts) up the stairs, etc). Please? Who are Crowded House? I like the new avatar Strawberry Milkshake. I have been away from here for far too long!

Will See what I can do, R-L. Crowded House is a New Zealand band as BoP stated. They've been around since the 80's; at least I remember that song from back then.
Thanks DS and EG. I don't really know if I'm good but I just keep at it and have a thesaurus and dictionary around (dictionary.com) and the LOTR book. For ideas, I just let my mind fly around ME like an eagle and try to see who's POV I will possess next. The boxers are metaphorical, BTW. Like my PC, they're very personal. Anyway, here's another Smash Mouth hit: RUNNING FROM THE SHIRE (A ruffian's lament) (originally WALKING ON THE SUN by Smash Mouth) It Ain't No Joke I'd Like To Buy Some Leaf To Smoke And Teach The Wose To Sing In Perfect Harmony And Teach The Folks To Stuff The Briars In The Shire Hey I Know It's Just A Song But It's Nice For The Company This Is A Wraith Attack I Know They Splashed Out But They're Back It's Just Like Any Lad Who Detracts When We Attack And Just Like Carrion With A Passion Or The Wicked We Trick If Ya Call Treabeard, Ents Come And Bash Ya After Mootin A Week. Chorus: So Don't Delay Act Now Longbottom's Running Out Allow, If We're Still Alive, Six To Eight Weeks To Arrive And If You Follow There May Be An Old Wizard But If His Powers Tire You Might As Well Be Running From The Shire Twenty Five Weeks Ago Folks Broke Out And They Spoke Out Of Depression And Oppression And Together They Poked And They Ogred Out Of Their Holes Around A Bon Fire Just Singin' And Clappin' Man What The Hell's Happened Some Were Hand Bound Some Were Hole Bound Some Just Fell Down And Some Got Back Up And Fought Back 'Gainst The Crackdown And Those Kids Of Hobbit Chicks Had Hostile Fits And Their Passion Is Smashin' Our Cool Profits From It (Chorus) It Ain't No Joke When Pheriannath Angry Bees Are Stoked They have no Fear Because Their Freedom's Life Has Been Revoked Control Is Broke Up So Choked Up And Focus On The Poke Up Mr. Wizard Can't Perform No One Eye Hocus Pocus So Don't Sit Back Kick Back Don't Watch Our Lads Get Bushwhacked News At 10 Your Neighborhood Is Under Attack Put Away The Pack Before The Pack Puts You Away You Need To Be Gone When Those Sheriffs Are Smart Enough To Relate (Chorus)

It's an overworked song now. Like the song, Arathorn. Strange, and yes, v. unconventional!

Here's 2 coming right up! First one's originally by Dido:
To Sting You (originally Thank You by Dido) My Pincers cold, I'm wondering why I let go those two at all The morning dew clouds up my silken web and I can't feel at all And even if I could there are no more prey, but my blood is on the wall Gollum told me that they're not so bad, they're not so bad I bled too much last night, there's hell to pay, my wound just feels in pain I missed the mark and I'll be dead today, Where is Gollum again? And even if I hide, orcs will all reply that I might not last the day And then they'll kill me and it's not so bad, it's not so bad and I want to Sting you for giving me the worst day of my life Oh just to Sting you is gonna be the best day of my life Through the hole I'm home at last and I'm stinking through and through Then I saw a juiceless corpse, and all I see is you And even if my lair breaks down now, I wouldn't give a clue Until you're near me and I want to Sting you for giving me the worst day of my life Oh just to Sting you is gonna be the best day of my life

The next one's originally from Bic Runga, a Maori songwriter and singer. This is the love theme from the movie Amarican Pie.
SAIL (Originally "Sway" by Bic Runga) Don't sail don't ever go away I'll miss you when you've left for West You know dwarves rarely care for Noldor Sometimes, when you go read my mind I fall into a cavern with you, pull me out in time Don't lead me down, let me down My axe I've sworn to swing for you And here I go, losing my control I'm hewing countless orc so I can claim it to your face It doesn't feel right, to look you in the eye Let all the gems you mean to me Come tumbling out my mines Indeed it's time to tell you now I say you shouldn't be so cruel CHORUS: Say you'll wait, don't run and go Like you would Sail my way, yeah I need to know More about you And there's no cure, this Khazad isn't sure Why he likes trees and ventures out This Dwarf's in so much doubt It makes me so tired - I feel so uninspired My head is battling with my heart My logic has been torn apart And now we near the hour Come sweeten this last afternoon CHORUS TWICE I've sworn to swing for you I've sworn to swing for you Now we near the hour, come sweeten this last afternoon It's time to tell you now I say you shouldn't be so cruel CHORUS TWICE I've sworn to swing for you I've sworn to swing for you I've sworn to swing for you

Everybodies are great. Elf master I take it the halfwits know who you are now, cos you've basically just told them. I have done a dido song and a corrs and a staind song over the weekend but i left the disc at home D'oh!
I luv Arathorns Dido song, and I luv Shrek so thats all cool.
