*jaw drops in amazement*
Woah! Arathorn, I LOVE Frustrated, that has been in my head for ages! Lanelf, you are a genious, I love Tenacious D! Yay! Someone else mangling Queen. As I have now returned to Entmoot, I will try to mangle some more songs. Did I see something about a songbook update??? Just to make everyone feel good, according to one of my friends, mangled songs are called pastiches (which sounds like a kind of nut) and are far harder to write than poems! *hands out cheesecake*

Ok, here we go.
A Thousand Miles by Vanessa Carlton sung by Sam - ok this is really cheesy I admit! Makin' my way through town People stare But I don't care 'Cause I'm homebound I'm in over my head Just making my way I'm waking my way through the crowd And I need you 'Cause I missed you And now I wonder... Now I've come home Back to the Shire Do you still care? Are you still alright? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you tonight. It's always times like this when I think of you And I wonder if you ever think of me 'Cause everything's so strange Yes, the Shire has changed And it doesn't fit my memory And I need you And I missed you And now I wonder... Now I've come home Back to the Shire Do you still care? Are you still alright? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you tonight. And I, I've been halfway round this world I, I never forgot your face I, I don't want to let you go I, I just want... Making my way through town Walking fast 'Cause now at last I am homebound Now I can see your face You're looking grand Do you understand Why I was gone so long? Now I need you 'Cause I missed you And now I wonder... Now I've come hoome Back to the Shire Do you still care? I know you're alright Do you know I've walked a thousand miles So I could just see you So I could just hold you tonight. Ok, my first mangled song for a while. I know I know, it's very sappy, but I'm in that frame of mind!

Thanks Garina! I feel so happy! And I love your version (and not just because I'm an insane hobbit-fancier) of A Thousand Miles - I love that song!
*changes slice of cheesecake to mud cake* Yummy! I'm just not keen on cheesecake. I prefer chocolate! Thank you! I love everyone else's songs too - Hail the Mangler! Lanelf.

YAY, GARINA'S BACK!
Where were you again? Anyway, maybe you could do "Don't Let Me Get Bree" originally by Pink or something like that. Vanessa Carlton is also a hot number here and your song's ... And thanks Lanelf.

Here we go! This has a REALLY annoying rhythm to write to!
I need to get to Bree Originally Don't Let Me Get Me by Pink Always liked stories, listened to them avidly I thought I wanted my life to be more than this Now things are changing, Middle Earth needs saving And all I want to do is hide under the bed! But now I seem to have been thrown into adventure And now there's no way out for Sam and me I'm a hazard to my friends I need to get to Bree And I must leave the Shire and go Or I'll bring danger on them all There's Riders after me And now I really cannot see Why this had to happen to me Gandalf told me, "That's the One Ring And you must take it or dark evil it will bring." Tired of being compared to Uncle Bilbo Wish I could go back, wish this wasn't me. We're on the Barrow Downs and things are really creepy Why did I bring them into this? I'm a hazard to my friends I need to get to Bree And I must leave the Shire and go Or I'll bring danger on them all There's Riders after me And now I really cannot see Why this had to happen to me We've reached the Inn and now we all feel slightly safer But there's a stranger staring across at me... I'm a hazard to my friends Don't let him get me I've had to leave my only home I hope that everyone's alright There's Riders after me And now I really cannot see Why this had to happen to me Ok, there you go Arathorn. I was writing this in school, and my friend is not speaking to me since I managed to get this version stuck in her head! *grins evilly* I can't remember, has anyone done "I want to break free" yet?

I think it might have been done Tano. Question: Does it actually matter if songs have been done before, as long as they are remangled originally? I can't sleep. It's midnight here. Oh well, mooting is more fun than sleeping any day!

hmph
I don't get any dwarvish ale?
im running a fever, going pale. Give me some dwarvish ale! to cure my need, it never fails! Sorry, I was actually thinking (oddly) of chocolate that entire terrible poem. I have a request actually, for {{{{000someone000}}}} to make a song out of, remember that song, that was like "She likes me for me, not because I sing like poverati (sp)" by Blessed Union of Souls. It was a bad song to begin with, PLEASE make it worse! *Hums South Hampton Avenue*

I think it's ok to mangle a song more than once but I avoid it, personally, because it tends to get confusing if you want to refer to it again. Not mangling previously mangled songs also makes me try to look for other songs. But hey, when inspiration whines mangling usually shines...um, something like that. And YAY! Garina's mangling's really back!

Anyone know the Brit band Coldplay?
Well, here's an attempt at one of their more popular hits...
Galadriel's Fellows (originally YELLOW by Coldplay) Look at the dwarf, Look how he pines for you, And everything you do, Yeah, he was some fellow. I came not long, I spent an age with you, And watched the woods you knew, And I was your fellow. So then I took my turn, Oh what a thing to have done, And I was your fellow. Your kin Oh yeah, your kin had gone, Sailed west to somewhere beautiful, You know, you know you want to go, You know you want to go. We slayed some orc, We crossed a ford for you, Oh what a thing to do, Coz we were your fellows. I drew a map, I drew a map for you, Oh what a thing to do, And I was your fellow. Your kin, Oh yeah your kin and Frode, Saw you do something beautiful, And you know for you, Noldor almost cried for you, Noldor almost cried. It's true, look how they pine for you, Look how they pine for you, Look how they pine for, Look how they pine for you, Look how they pine for you, Look how they pine. Look at the dwarf, Look how he pines for you, And all the things that you do.

GREAAAAAAT songs every peoples!
Now could someone do one I know? And while we are on the subject, has anyone tried listening to Touched by an Angel's Will Walk With You? Imagine it sung by Sam and there is no mangling needed! It's really cool!
