Sting Songs that sound like, or relate to LOTR

I was just listening to some of my cds today, and I was listening to my new Skillet cd(most of you probably have no idea who they are at all), and I was listening to some of my other cds too, and alot of them sound like LOTR, or the character's thoughts.
Skillet by the way is like hard rock/worship/classical/death metal music.
(this song is off Skillet's cd Collide)

1.Fingernails

CHORUS:Never reaching what I want to reach
Never being who I want to be
Blaming me when I fall and fail
All my dreams splintering under my fingernails

I'm empty, lonely and accused, accused without a word
My fingernails are clipping down from clawing in the dirt
I'm so lost, lost and confused
I threw it all away
How can I be beautiful when I'm so afraid?

CHORUS

I watched it all slip through my hands
My brokeness revealed
I'm so proud, I'm so proud, I'm crying to be filled
I'm killing, destroying the plague that's killing me away
I've got to live, I've got to love, like I'm unafraid

BRIDGE:I'm wasting, wasting every moment
I want to be tasting, tasting every moment with You.
I'm suffering, I'm bleeding on my knees
Who's gonna save me, suffering, bleeding
Save me from this pit of frailty
Never reaching me...


That reminded me of Frodo and Sam, mainly Sam(tasting every moment)when they're on the Emuyn Muil, in the Dead Marshes, on the stairs of Cirith Ungol(Minas Morgal), and in the land of Mordor.


And we have another one called Precious One(oh, we all know who would sing this)

Precious One

You are so far away, but I'm so close to you
Your hands cover your eyes, but mine reach to hold you

CHORUS:Precious one, you know how mich I love you
That is why, you know how much I miss you

You are scared of the light, which can break all your fear
I'm here(right here)my beloved

CHORUS

I remember when you used to serenade me without song, it's been so long
And I will never forget how you always smiled when you knew I was near
But, no, I'm stil here

CHORUS



Well, it's about a girl, but if we change a few things around, then it would be more relavent.


I have more, I just need to listen more.


Post yours, and change words around so they fit more if you like.

um. hard to think of one. but I was laughing maniacally during Christmas when the radio put on 12 Days of Christmas.

"Fiiiive Golden Riiiings..."

i was all like "but that isn't enough to go around to the 7 dwarf lords 3 elves 9 kings and not to mention the One" and everyone else was like shut up or we'll electrocute you with the tree lights. so sad, so sad.

Haha, I do stuff like that too.

The second song isn't Skillet by the way, it's a retro-rock band called Cadet.
The song is really lame, but I think it's funny. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Ok, I'm sorry that I don't have the lyrics... But what about the song "Lean on me"? It's kind of an "oldies" song, but it would fit in perfectly with Frodo and Sam climbing up Mt. Doom. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Hehe, yeah, a giggle slips out of my mouth every time I hear that part of the "12 Days of Christmas".

Yeah, "Lean on Me" makes sense, and here are the lyrics for it:

Lyrics for Bill Withers - Lean On Me

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me

So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Lean on me...

I've been watching your world from afar,
I've been trying to be where you are,
And I've been secretly falling apart,
I've seen.
To me, you're strange and you're beautiful,
You'd be so perfect with me but you just can't see,
You turn every head but you don't see me.

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep and I'll put a spell on you.
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see, lyricstop
And you'll realise that you love me.

Yeah...
Yeah...

Sometimes, the last thing you want comes in first,
Sometimes, the frist thing you want never comes,
And I know, the waiting is all you can do,
Sometimes...

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep,
I'll put a spell on you,
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realise that you love me.

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep 'cos I'll put a spell on you,
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realise that you love me, yeah...

yeah...
yeah...
yeah...
yeah...


I am obsessed with that song at the moment, and I think it's perfect for Grima. It's his thoughts about Eowyn. I posted it in another similar topic a while back.

Love and hugs

~Naurwen~

How about My Immortal by Evanescence?:

my immortal
i'm so tired of being here
suppressed by all of my childish fears
and if you have to leave
i wish that you would just leave
because your presence still lingers here
and it won't leave me alone

these wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you cried i'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream i'd fight away all of your fears
and i've held your hand through all of these years
but you still have all of me

you used to captivate me
by your resonating light
but now i'm bound by the life you left behind
your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

these wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you cried i'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream i'd fight away all of your fears
and i've held your hand through all of these years
but you still have all of me

i've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
and though you're still with me
i've been alone all along


Abedithon le,

This one's by Kids in the Way(emo Christian band)

Never Say Die

Whispers in the wind carry messages to lovers far
Tales of lost romance and of that missed chance and fleeting hearts
Yesterday, befriends anger with words you say
Don't let those dying ships sail away

CHORUS:Promise me you'll never say die

Ashes in the sand bury witnesses to broken hearts
Scars of lone memories and of those crushed dreams and open arms
Love songs and tidal waves have washed me away


Sort of Aragorn singing to Arwen, or Beril to Luthien Tinuviel.

It's beautiful stuff though, and the band is really nice too.

Going to find some more.

Found another one.


For Every Wish

Watching from the shadows
Stealing all that's left
Great Deciever, so beautiful
Fading moments
Passing like years
Wish everything was perfect

CHORUS:I'm all I'll ever need
So go away
keep the lies
For every wish
there's hope and time

Now it's complicated
Wish it was medicated
There's gotta be some way out of this
Looking for release
To end the greatest need

CHORUS

GOD HELP ME!!!(x2)

Got to peel away the skin
Just find the truth in here



It's like Gollum when he was worshipping Shelob(before Bilbo), then when he was being poisined by her(in his mind), and thinking he didn't need anyone.
Then it was like when he brought Frodo and Sam to her(or at least when he was planning it)

Pretty cool song overall.... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I think that this one fits Saruman; at least when he's attempting to convince Gandalf to join him.

"The Music of the Night" ~The Phantom of the Opera

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation,
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination;
Silently the senses abandon their defenses.

Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendor.
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender;
Turn your face away from the garrish light of day,
Turn your face away from cold, unfeeling light,
And listen to the music of the night.

Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams,
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before,
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar;
And you'll live as you've never lived before.

Softly, deftly, music shall caress you,
Hear it, feel it, secretly posses you;
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind,
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight;
The darkness of the music of the night.

Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world;
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before.
Let your soul take you where long to go;
Only then can you belong to me.

Floating, falling, sweet intoxication;
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation.
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in,
To the harmony which dreams alone can write;
The power of the music of the night.

You alone can make my song take flight;
Help me make the music of the night.

Silmaril

Here's a lovely song by Tina Turner that I think would be a good song for when Celebrian leaves Middle-Earth for Aman, leaving Elrond behind. It's called 'Silent Wings'.

There was a time when I would have followed you,
To the ends of the earth.
I was willing to share it all with you;
The love, the hurt.

I've seen you when your dreams were falling in the dust,
But I never stopped believing in you.
I always thought our love was strong enough
To hold on to.

You never see it coming, you just let it fly,
On silent wings, on silent wings.
You can't hide what you feel inside, and the fire has left your eyes,
On silent wings.

I see us in our dreams, and we are dancing.
I can almost hear the song.
But our prayers they go unanswered,
And we both know we're just hanging on.

I feel the change, but I'll never know the reason why,
The rug was pulled so gently from under my feet.
I only know that something good has died,
Between you and me,
Oh it's just a memory.

You never see it coming,
You just go seperate ways,
On silent wings, silent wings.
There's no more promises to break,
Oh our love has slipped away, on silent wings.

I will never be the same again,
I feel the whisper of the wind,
On silent wings.

Welcome to the Downs, Neniamith! Enjoy being dead!

I can't believe nobody's posted this yet...

Just A Girl by No Doubt

Take this pink ribbon off my eyes
I'm exposed
And it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know
Exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me
To hold your hand

'Cause I'm just a girl, little ol' me
Don't let me out of your sight
I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite
So don't let me have any rights
Oh... I've had it up to here!

The moment that I step outside
So many reasons
For me to run and hide
I can't do the little things
I hold so dear
'Cause it's all those little things
That I fear

'Cause I'm just a girl,
I'd rather not be
'Cause they won't let me drive
Late at night
I'm just a girl,
Guess I'm some kind of freak
'Cause they all sit and stare
With their eyes
I'm just a girl,
Take a good look at me
Just your typical prototype
Oh... I've had it up to here!
Oh... am I making myself clear?

I'm just a girl
I'm just a girl in the world...
That's all that you'll let me be!

I'm just a girl, living in captivity
Your rule of thumb
Makes me worry some
I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
What I've succumbed to
Is making me numb
I'm just a girl, my apologies
What I've become is so burdensome
I'm just a girl, lucky me
Twiddle-dum there's no comparison

Oh... I've had it up to!
Oh... I've had it up to!
Oh... I've had it up to here.

For who else but Eowyn?

I'd also say Iris by the Goo-Goo Dolls for Arwen and Aragorn, She's So High by Tal Bachman for Gimli about Galadriel, Perfect by Simple Plan for Faramir (it's absolutely...well, perfect, for him), and this was mentioned in another thread: It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) by R.E.M. for the Frodo/Sam/Gollum team in Mordor (can't you just see them, linking arms, skipping down a road in Mordor, singing that? Okay, I'm doing giving you all nightmares).

Thumbs up

She's So High
by Tal Bachman


She's blood flesh and bone
No tucks or silicone
She's touch, smell, sight, taste, and sound
But somehow I can't believe
That anything should happen
I know where I belong
And nothin's going to happen

Cause she's so high
High above me
She's so lovely
She's so high
Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite
d-d-d-da da
she's so high-- high above me

First class and fancy free
She's High Society
She's got the best of everything
What could a guy like me ever really offer
She's perfect as she can be
Why should I even bother

Cause she's so high
High above me
She's so lovely
She's so high
Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite
She's so high
High above me

She calls to speak to me
I freeze immediately
Cause what she says sounds so unreal
Cause somehow I can't believe
That anything should happen
I know where I belong
And nothin's going to happen
hey-hey yeah yeah

Cause she's so high
High above me
She's so lovely
She's so high
Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aprhodite
oh yeh - yehh
she's so high
high above me

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And another one... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Forgive Me
by Evanescence


Can you forgive me again?
I don't know what I said
But I didn't mean to hurt you

I heard the words come out
I felt like I would die
It hurt so much to hurt you

Then you look at me
You're not shouting anymore
You're silently broken

I'd give anything now
to kill those words for you

Each time I say something I regret I cry "I don't want to lose you."
But somehow I know that you will never leave me, yeah.

'Cause you were made for me
Somehow I'll make you see
How happy you make me

I can't live this life
Without you by my side
I need you to survive

So stay with me
You look in my eyes and I'm screaming inside that I'm sorry.

And you forgive me again
You're my one true friend
And I never meant to hurt you

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Marble Halls
by Enya


I dreamt I dwelt in marble halls
with vassals and serfs at my side,
and of all who assembled within those walls
that I was the hope and the pride.

I had riches all too great to count
and a high ancestral name.

But I also dreamt which pleased me most
that you loved me still the same,
that you loved me
you loved me still the same,
that you loved me
you loved me still the same.

I dreamt that suitors sought my hand,
that knights upon bended knee
and with vows no maidens heart could withstand,
they pledged their faith to me.

And I dreamt that one of that noble host
came forth my hand to claim.

But I also dreamt which charmed me most
that you loved me still the same
that you loved me
you loved me still the same,
that you loved me
you loved me still the same.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Night Ride Across The Caucasus
by Loreena McKennitt


Ride on through the night, ride on
Ride on through the night, ride on

There are visions, there are memories
There are echoes of thundering hooves
There are fires, there is laughter
There's the sound of a thousand doves

In the velvet of the darkness
By the silhouette of silent trees
They are watching, they are waiting
They are witnessing life's mysteries

Cascading stars on the slumbering hills
They are dancing as far as the sea
Riding o'er the land, you can feel its gentle hand
Leading on to its destiny

Take me with you on this journey
Where the boundaries of time are now tossed
In cathedrals of the forest
In the words of the tongues now lost

Find the answers, ask the questions
Find the roots of an ancient tree
Take me dancing, take me singing
I'll ride on till the moon meets the sea



[img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] Owie....my poor Hobbit fingers hurt now....*Amariden looks around for a hug* No wonder old Gammer Togwit said that Hobbit girls aren't meant to use computers!!!! Bugger. [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

The song "Follow Me" by Uncle Kracker sounds like it could be sung by Gollum:

You don`t know how you met me,
You don`t know why,
You can`t turn around and say good-bye.
Oh, you know that when your with me,
I make you free,
And swim through you veins like a fish in the sea.
Chorus: Singin`,
Follow me,
Every thing is alright.
I`ll be the on to tuck you in at night,
And if you,
Wanna leave I can garantee,
You won`t find nobody else like me.

I`m not worried bout the ring you wear,
`Cause as long as no one knows then nobody can care,
You`re fellin` guilty,
And I`m well aware,
But you don`t look ashamed and baby I`m not scared.
Chorus: Singin`,
Follow me,
Every thing is alright.
I`ll be the on to tuck you in at night,
And if you,
Wanna leave I can garantee,
You won`t find nobody else like me.

There might be more, but I don`t think so.

Has anyone ever heard "Ænema", by Tool? I think of Denethor when I hear that.

Also, I always imagine Morgoth sitting on his throne with "One-winged Angel" from Final Fantasy VII, playing in the background, if anyone knows what I'm talking about.

Sorry, but I can't post the lyrics to either of these songs. The first one has a curse word in almost every sentence, and the econd one I can't understand the words to.

The Impossible Dream song reminds me of Frodo's quest.

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
And to run where
the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
And to love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march,
march into hell
For that heavenly cause
And I know
If I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart
Will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be
better for this
That one man, scorned
and covered with scars,
Still strove with his last
ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable,
the unreachable,
The unreachable star
And I'll always dream
The impossible dream
Yes, and I'll reach
The unreachable star

How about 'Pressing On' by Relient K (another christian band) I can't think if the verses to save my life, but here's the chorus:


Somewhere back there I left my worries all behind.
My problems fell out of the back of my mind.
We're going & we're never knowing, never knowing where we're going
To go back to where I was would just be wrong.
I'M PRESSING ON!!

Pressing on, pressing on.
All my distress is going, going gone!
Pressing on, pressing on.
& I won't sit back & take this anymore
Because I'm done with that
I've got 1 foot out the door
& to go back to where I was would just be wrong.
I'm pressing on!

Some Lotr'ish things in LZ lyrics...

Led Zeppelin lyrics for 'Ramble on':
I ain't tellin' no lie.
Mine's a tale that can't be told,
My freedom I hold dear;
How years ago in days of old
When magic filled the air,
T'was in the darkest depths of Mordor
I met a girl so fair,
But Gollum, and the evil one crept up
And slipped away with her.
Her, her....yea.
Ain't nothing I can do, no.

Led Zeppelin lyrics for Stairway to heaven:
There’s a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
-the Elven sea-longing, perhaps?

I also found this...
Stairway to Middle Earth

Have a nice day...

Plan B by Five Iron Frenzy! probably for Frodo...though I suppose it could work for any of them. Well, minus the nintendo part.

I fell asleep with my clothes on
Dropped my keys on the front lawn
Waking up I watch the drool a-gleaming
From my mouth to the carpet it is streaming

Giving up
It never felt so good
Welcome to plan B

I'll eat some moldy bread
Then I'm going back to bed
I know how this day will crescendo
I'll fall asleep while I play Nintendo

Giving up
Never felt so good
Welcome to plan B
Giving up
What is the likelihood
Life could be so free?

Up to now in my life I have failed all I've tried, it's too hard
I think I've found my calling now laying down in the yard

Dont you cry Momma, dont you even weep
'Cause you know your son excels at sleep

Giving up
It never felt so good
Welcome to plan B
Giving up
What is the likelihood
Life could be so free?


Or My Evil Plan again by Five Iron,

have an evil plan to save the world for every man,
And I think it's better than the way it's being run.
Oh the groundwork's laid,
No Don't be afraid,
I'm sure that I can fix it,
When I figure out the physics.

Chorus
My evil plan to save the world,
Just you wait 'till it's unfurled,
It'll go down in history.
It's prophetic,
No, it's not pathetic.
I can't believe I made it up myself.

I have an evil plan,
To save the world you understand,
The exemplary feat, you'd think I'd have to cheat.
I'd make Voltaire proud,
Deep and furrow browed.
Uncanny and so clever, it's "Our Newest Plan Ever!"


Got tired of whining,
A grander scheme with silver lining,
For every boy and girl.
We can't be responsible,
For all that's wrong with this world.

Starving children in pain,
You can't believe in that god.
The world's not spinning your way,
Does every dog still have his day?

How about 'Too Lost In You' by Sugababes?
Fits for Èowyn...

You look into my eyes
I go out of my mind
I can't see anything
Cos this love's got me blind
I can't help myself
I can't break this spell
I can't even try

I'm in over my head
You got under my skin
I got no strength at all
In the state that I'm in

And my knees are weak
And my mouth can't speak
Fell too far this time

Chorus:
Baby, I'm too lost in you
Caught in you
Lost in everything about you
So deep, I can't sleep
I can't think
I just think about the things that you do (you do)
I'm too lost in you
(Too lost in you)
ooh

Well you whispered to me
And I shiver inside
You undo me and move me
In ways undefined
And you're all I see
And you're all I need
Help me baby (help me baby)
Help me baby (help me now)

Cos I'm slipping away
Like the sand to the tide
Flowing into your arms
Falling into your eyes
If you get too near
I might disappear
I might lose my mind, ohh

Chorus:
Baby, I'm too lost in you
Caught in you
Lost in everything about you
So deep, I can't sleep
I can't think
I just think about the things that you do (you do)
I'm too lost in you
(Too lost in you)

I'm going crazy in love for you baby
(I can't eat and I can't sleep)
I'm going down like a stone in the sea
Yeah, no one can rescue me
(No one can rescue me)
ohh, ohhhh

My baby(my baby)
Oooh, baby, baby, baabbyy

Chorus:
Baby, I'm too lost in you
Caught in you
Lost in everything about you
So deep, I can't sleep
I can't think
I just think about the things that you do (you do)
I'm too lost in you

I'm lost in you
I'm lost in you
I'm lost in everything about you
So deep (so deep), I can't sleep
I can't think
I just think about the things that you do (you do)
I'm too lost in you
(Too lost in you)

Ohhh

There is a group called Gandalf and I grew up with one of their albums called Visions. Anyway there are two titles that remind me of ME, After the Evil was Defeated and The Ships of the Immortals

My first contact with ME was the song Lothlorien by Enya and my mom told me it was a song based on a beautiful elvish forest. well of course as a little girl I loved that idea and therefore it became on of my favourite songs.

Cause she's so high
High above me
she's so lovely

I CANNOT BELIEVE that more people haven't said more Led Zeppelin songs:

Ramble On(has been said)
In the darkest depths of Mordor
I met a girl so fair
But then Gollum and the evil one, Crept up and slipoped away with her
The Battle of Evermore
the drums will shake the castle wall
The Ringwraiths ride in black; Ride On!
Misty Mountain Hop
I'm packin' my bags for the Misty Mountains
Where the spirits go now

To name but a few.

This may just be me, but every time I hear the first verse of "Pilgrim" by Enya, I think of Frodo trying to make the decision to go to the Western Shores. It makes me very sad.

Pilgrim, how you journey
on the road you chose
to find out where the winds die
and where the stories go.
All days come from one day
that must you must know,
you cannot change what's over
but only where you go.

*sob*

I'm Looking Through You, by The Beatles, always reminds me of Sam talking to Frodo on Mount Doom after he puts the Ring on. The Beatles have probably always been my favorite band, ever since I was little.

I'm looking through you, where did you go?
I thought I knew you, what did I know?
You don't look different but you have changed
I'm looking through you, you're not the same

Your lips are moving, I cannot hear
Your voice is soothing but the words aren't clear
You don't sound different, I've learnt the game
I'm looking through you, you're not the same

Why, tell me why did you not treat me right?
Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight

You're thinking of me the same old way
You were above me but not today
The only difference is you're down there
I'm looking through you and you're nowhere

Why, tell me why did you not treat me right?
Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight

I'm looking through you, where did you go?
I thought I knew you, what did I know?
You don't look different but you have changed
I'm looking through you, you're not the same

Yeah oh baby you've changed
I'm, I'm looking through you
Yeah I'm looking through you
You've changed, you've changed...
