Oh, Havens! This is quite crazy but what if the Uruk-hai sing "Fie on Goodness" from Camelot?

I know, I know.

Quote:

Pippin should sing these lyrics, "Why's everybody always picking on me?" It's from a song from the fifties, I can't remember the title or artist, but it fits.

I believe the song is called "Charlie Brown" by someone named Leon...but I could be wrong.

When Eowyn wakes from the Black Breath: "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" by Elton John.

Sam at the feast at the fields of Cormallen: "It's All Too Much" by the Beatles.

The Eagles sing "Switch into Glide" by the Kings.

Sam sings "Empty Garden" in the Scouring of the Shire.

Gandalf, rejecting the terms of the Mouth of Sauron, would sing "Keep on Rockin' in the Free World" by Neil Young.

The Fellowship fleeing from orcs would sing "Band on the Run". I can't help but think of Pippin when I hear this:

If I Ever Get Out Of Here,
Thought Of Giving It All Away
To A Registered Charity.
All I Need Is A Pint A Day
If I Ever Get Out Of Here.

Then Frodo and Sam hiding in Mordor:

Well, The Night Was Falling As The Desert World
Began To Settle Down.
In The Town They're Searching For Us Every Where
But We Never Will Be Found.

How many of you recognized all of these songs, I wonders, yes we wonders?

For some reason I can just see the hobbits singing 'the Sound of Music' or something like 'Edlewiess' about returning to the Shire.. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] that is before they find out that it's fallen to Sharky

*Ahem* As I posted earlier in this thread:

Quote:

"Why's everybody always picking on me" was Charlie Brown by the Coasters - perhaps re-named Pippin Took:

"Pippin Took, Pippin Took
Fool of a Took, Pippin Took

He's gonna get caught
Just you wait and see

Why's Gandalf always picking on me"

Sam: "Lean on Me"

Aragorn, to the other men and elves at Helms deep...
I simply cannot do it alone...(chicago musical)
But you may want to change the lyrics to adopt something like,
My father and I would have had an act not to be stopped.
My father and I would have gone straight to the top.
My father was a dunadain, 63, at least. (oh yeah)
But my father is now unfortunatly deceased.

I know its sad of course but a fact is a fact... And now all that remains, is the remains of a scraggly ranger rat!

(Spoken)
You know what guys? You can fight exactly the same as my father.. You would fill his place perfectly! NOw why dont I show ya some of the action huh?

Watch this-
Now you have to imagine it with 2 orcs, its swell with 2 orcs!

.... Blah blah blah.. if youve seen the musical you can just about predict how it will finnish.

How about Eowyn crooning One Day I'll Fly Away from Moulin Rouge as the company leaves her alone in that fortress [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] or Gollum singing Mariah Carey's I Can't Live to the Ring.

The Daughter of Gollum and Shelob · 05-14-2003, 12:31 PM

Remember that crappy Spice Girls song, Viva Forever? Well, call me crazy, but I actually re wrote the lyrics to suit the LOTR musical. This is supposed to be Gollum talking to himself (Smeagol).

***

VIVA MY PRECIOUS

GOLLUM: Do you sstill remember, how we used to be?
Ssplashing around, to the goblinss' cave bound,
Just my Preciouss, you and me.
Both of uss were dreamerss, living without ssun,
But Bagginsess came, made a riddle sso lame,
And he went home with the One.

Hassta my Preciouss, always be mine.
Viva my Preciouss, I'll be ssneaking
Under nasssty, yellow ssun.
Live for Preciousss, for the moment,
Ever ssearching for the One.

SMEAGOL: Yess, I still remember, every whispered hiss,
The touch of its gold, and the torture untold,
Of the Dark Lord's secret kiss.
Sslipping through our fingers, to Frodo and Sam,
Masster is good, *** he offered uss food,
But the Ssam's a stupid ram.

Hassta Manana, inmate of mine.
Viva the hobbits, you'll be going,
Under nasssty, yellow ssun.
Live for Preciousss? Not forever,
For I found my sspecial One.

GOLLUM: But you are alone now, wass he jusssst a fraud?
Truly *** I told you, the promisse iss ssold
And he'ss just a filthy Frod'.

BOTH: Hassta Manana, Frodo and Ssam.
Viva my Preciouss, we will get it,
We don't care about the ssun.
Live for Preciouss, coss they sstole it,
And we'll claimsess back the one.

I believe that this thread was started as a joke, but someone must have taken it seriously!
