If symestreem's guess is incorrect, coul you give a hint, Di?

Diamond18 · 06-07-2006, 11:31 AM

Alright, it's a female character singing to a male character and they're from the Silmarillion.

But symestreem's guess is wrong.

Now there's a surprise.

Aredhel to Eol?

Diamond18 · 06-07-2006, 05:01 PM

Bingo!

Your turn.

symestreem · 06-07-2006, 05:11 PM

*dies of shock*

There will be a brief pause while I read the rest of the thread and make sure I'm not repeating... and try to retrieve those ideas from two years ago. Back as quick as I can.

Glirdan · 06-08-2006, 05:40 AM

My guess is Bilbo.

Thinlómien · 06-08-2006, 06:38 AM

Sam?

symestreem · 06-08-2006, 06:58 AM

Glirdan's got it. It could possibly work for Sam, too, except they came back to the Scouring of the Shire, whereas Bilbo did not.

And so ends my attempt to indoctrinate you into the good ol' music of the good ol' days-- for now.

Glirdan · 06-08-2006, 02:27 PM

Ooo! I have a song in mind, but I need to go on a hunt for the lyrics. I shall be back!

I think this might be a little harder then you think, but have at it!

Diamond18 · 06-09-2006, 09:25 PM

Obvious guess first -- is it the Ring singing?

Glirdan · 06-09-2006, 09:26 PM

Nope, more complicater then that. Guess again.

symestreem · 06-09-2006, 09:34 PM

Is it the Silmaril that was cast into the chasm in the Earth?

Glirdan · 06-09-2006, 10:05 PM

OOO! That's a good one! But not right. Let me know when you want a hint.

Diamond18 · 06-09-2006, 11:56 PM

Sauron singing to the Ring?

Thinlómien · 06-10-2006, 11:54 AM

Frodo or Gollum to the Ring?

Glirdan · 06-10-2006, 12:53 PM

Neither are right. Want a hint?

Diamond18 · 06-10-2006, 04:08 PM

Shelob to Gollum.

Hey, I'm being creative.

Kath · 06-10-2006, 04:09 PM

Gandalf to Saruman?

Glirdan · 06-10-2006, 06:05 PM

Quote:

Shelob to Gollum.

Okay, I'll give you the creative part. However, you're wrong and I'm afraid you are as well Kath.

Here's a hint: Think couples.

Diamond18 · 06-11-2006, 01:53 PM

Sauron to his lady love...

Okay, no. Goldberry to Tom? I would be thinking Aredhel to Eol but I just did that one....

Glirdan · 06-11-2006, 01:54 PM

Well, your second guess would be right, but since you haven't guessed it per se...

Just kidding, take it away Di.

Diamond18 · 06-11-2006, 09:34 PM

Aha! Sneaky. I wasn't going to mention it because I thought, "Nah..." but I couldn't think of anything else.

I'll come back with lyrics later.

Glirdan · 06-13-2006, 02:38 PM

Never mind me being sneaky! Sheez! This one could apply to so many people! So, my first guess will be...Gollum to the Ring.

Thinlómien · 06-13-2006, 02:40 PM

Elrond to Arwen?

Diamond18 · 06-13-2006, 03:03 PM

Sorry, no.

But you're right, that was too generic. Here is another part of the same song, more specific to my answer:

Quote:

I would fall asleep
Only in hopes of dreaming
That everything would be like it was before
But nights like this it seems are slowly fleeting
They disappear as reality is crashing to the floor

symestreem · 06-13-2006, 03:11 PM

Beren to Luthien?

Thinlómien · 06-13-2006, 03:11 PM

Galadriel to Lothlórien?

Or more generally, Elves to Middle-Earth?

Diamond18 · 06-13-2006, 09:15 PM

Nope and nope.

Glirdan · 06-14-2006, 05:50 AM

Sauron to the Ring?

Diamond18 · 06-14-2006, 09:20 AM

Close, but no.

Diamond18 · 06-15-2006, 12:47 PM

Hint:

Both of Glirdan's guesses have been extremely close to the mark.

symestreem · 06-15-2006, 02:24 PM

Frodo to the Ring?

Diamond18 · 06-15-2006, 02:52 PM

That's the one. Actually, the first excerpt is Frodo to the Ring and the second excerpt is Frodo after the scouring of the Shire.

Anyway, your turn.

Okay, this isn't as obscure as it looks at first. The clue is night.

Glirdan · 06-16-2006, 02:39 PM

Hmm, the first thing that comes to mind is Varda to Manwë....and yes, that's my guess.

symestreem · 06-16-2006, 02:46 PM

Nope, sorry.

Kath · 06-17-2006, 04:35 PM

Er, weird guess but Rosie to Sam?
