Ideas for other songs
I have writer’s block so there are Ideas but no words. Perhaps you lot could take these ones and do them. ‘Sitting on the dock of the bay’ Otis Redding ‘Sitting at the bar at Bree’ ‘Cosmic Girl’ Jamiraquai ‘Cosmic Elf’ ‘The boys are back in town’ Thin Lizzy ‘The hobbits (or Orcs) are back in town’ ‘Looking after number one’ Boomtown Rats ‘Looking after the One’ ‘I don’t like Mondays’ Boomtown Rats ‘I don’t like Mordor’ ‘The Elephants graveyard’ Boomtown Rats ‘The Oliphaunts graveyard’ Someone suggested ‘We are the Champions’ Queen ‘We are the Fellowship’ but did anyone actually do it? ‘Bridge over troubled water’ Simon and Garfunkel ‘Bridge over Khazard-dum’

Quote:
 And I'm a teenager of the eighties; so here's one from A-ha: Put On Me (originally Take On Me by A-HA) You're walking that way I don't know what But to say I'll say it anyway Today's another day to tempt you Sliding away He'll be coming for me anyway Put on me (put on me), put me on (Put on me) I'll be gone In a day or two So needless to say I'm odds and ends But that's me slipping away Slowly corrupting the bearer, OK. Say after me "I'm far better than the wraiths don't worry" Put on me (put on me), put me on (put on me) I'll be gone In a day or two Oh the things that you say: "Is it luck or Just the ring trying to roll away You're all the things I've got to remember You're easing away I'll be bearing you anyway" Put on me (put on me), put me on (put on me) I'll be gone In a day or two

I also re-did a classic from Wham (Eowyn to Aragorn) :
One Breakfast (Originally Last Christmas by Wham) CHORUS: One Breakfast I gave you my heart But you never did say why you gave it away This year I saw Faramir I think he is someone special CHORUS. Once bitten and twice as shy We kept our distance But he still did catch my eye Tell me plainly Do you recognize me? Well I re-did my hair It doesn't surprise me (One Breakfast) I had it cut and sent it With a note saying "I love you" I meant it Now I know what a fool I've been But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again CHORUS. A crowded plain A Wraith with empty eyes I'm waiting for you Heal my soul of ice My god I thought you were Someone to rely on 'Mir? I guess he was a shoulder to cry on A King or a lover with a fire in his heart A man under cover but you tore me apart Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me again CHORUS. X2 A King or a lover with a fire in his heart A man under cover healed my Faramir's heart Maybe next spring I'll give it to someone I'll give it to someone special.

Here's one originally by Modern English:
Won't Let You Melt - (originally Melt With You by Modern English) Moving forward using all my stealth Tricking them for you was never second best I saw the gold glinting all around my face Never really knowing you corrupted all you trace I'll stop the world from melting you Can't see the difference and I'm getting bitter all the time There's nothing you and I won't do I'll stop the world and from melting you (I should know better) Dream of better fishhh that swim in better ways (I should see why) But dropped in the state of the slimy cold disgrace (I should know better) I made a pilgrimage to save your Precious Face (I should see why) Never comprehending the wraiths that long gone by (I'll stop the world) I'll stop the world from melting you (I'll stop the world) Can't see the difference and I'm getting bitter all the time (Let's stop the world) There's nothing you and I won't do (Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world from melting you Her pass has opened wide (Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world from melting you (Let's stop the world) I've seen some changes but I'm getting bitter all the time (Let's stop the world) There's nothing you and I won't do (Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world from melting you The mountains open wide Hissss, gollum Hissss, gollu-humm Hissss, gollum Hissss, gollu-humm I'll stop the world from melting you (Let's stop the world) Can't see the difference and I'm getting bitter all the time (Let's stop the world) There's nothing you and I won't do (Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world from melting you (Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world from melting you...

And finally one from Spandau Ballet:
ROUND AND BOUND (originally Round and Round) You don't have to be so wise I'm not your fantasy But you can fantasize I'm just one of those that gets Ages started Where is the artisan Who had me crafted I wanna be his magical mystery I wanna be your final history This is the news Gollum's ever been so wild All that he wants to do Is to catch up to you This is all about the Ringwraiths we've found And through the orcs in towns We go round Sauron's just beginning to grow strong I was just a few lean cent'ries long We were the news Round and bound we go And oh don't you know This is the game that we came here for Round and bound we go, And oh don't you know This is the news of my life Oh he was just beginning to grow strong I was just a few lean cent'ries long We were the news Round and bound we go And oh don't you know This is the game that we came here for Round and bound we go, And oh don't you know

Great songs, Arathorn! *claps*
Can I put in a request? Sargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Beatles) I'd try, but I am not near as good as some other people here (*cough* Arathorn *cough* But all you others are great too!!!!)

Quote:
I am not much of a songwriter, but after all of this, I had to try my hand at it. Though I can't think of one for Sgt. Peppers, I'll work on another. Forgive me if a few of the lyrics are misplaced ... I haven't listened to the song I took it from in, oh, several months. Yellow-golden Ring (Yellow Submarine.) In Hobbiton where I was born Lived a Bag'ns who went questing, And he told me of it all, But his yellow-golden Ring. So we trailed him one by one 'Til we found that nassty thing And soon my cousin gave Me that yellow-golden ring. We all lived with that yellow-golden Ring That yellow-golden Ring, That yellow-golden Ring. We all lived with that yellow-golden Ring That yellow-golden Ring, That yellow-golden Ring. And we do as others please, Every one of us quite misses cheese, I am blue, and Stinker's mean, For that yellow-golden Ring. What we don't give for that yellow-golden Ring That yellow-golden Ring, That yellow-golden Ring. What we don't give for that yellow-golden Ring That yellow-golden Ring, That yellow-golden Ring. And our friends hate the Dark Lord, So we march off to break his door. And the man begins to fray: (Doodley do dee dee, dee dee, di doodli de de dum de do di dum dum.) We all live for that yellow-golden Ring, That yellow-golden Ring, That yellow-golden Ring. We all live for that yellow-golden Ring, That yellow-golden Ring, That yellow-golden Ring.

WWOOOWWW!!! They were wicked! *claps* Welcome F.B -B
Here is some more from me! Sorry to give Eruviel so much more work! ‘Livin’ on a prayer’ By Bon Jovi ‘Livin’ on Lembas’ by Elfmaster XK Frodo used to live in the Shire But since he got the ring He’s down on his luck, it’s tough so tough Sam worked in his gardens all day It was simple but he liked it anyway Hmm not now [Chorus] He says there’s so much we need that we haven’t got And we’re stuck in Mordor if we like it or not We’ve got each other and that’s enough for life We’ll live on what we’ve got Oh, we’re on the pass, Ah, livin’ on Lembas Take my had and we’ll destroy the ring Oh, livin’ on Lembas Frodo’s getting weaker now It’s weighing him down, Heavy on its chain, it’s tough, so tough Sam dreams of eating again Waybread is fine but it’s always the same The same [Chorus] Livin’ on Lembas, Livin on Lembas Wah! We’re her if we like it or not You live for the fight when it’s all that you’ve got Livin’ on Lembas, We’ve got nothing but to destroy the ring! Wah! Livin’ on Lembas!

This is a song for the fans, not the fellowship.
‘This is the world calling’ by Bob Geldof ‘This is Middle Earth calling’ by Elfmaster XK I hear a hoof beat It’s ringing across a cobbled street I hear some elves singing Must come from somewhere deep in the woods [Spoken] And Gandalf says: All is here, all is real, open your eyes, you will see This is Middle Earth calling This is Earth This is Middle Earth calling This is us. I see four hobbits now A dwarf, two men, an elf and a wizard They are the Fellowship I don’t need to wish to believe, I just do [Spoken] And Gandalf replies: Follow us around, you’ll soon see, we’re real, if you believe us to be This is Middle Earth calling This is Earth This is Middle Earth calling This is us. This is Middle Earth calling This is Earth This is Middle Earth calling This is us. And it goes on, and on What we gonna do because we can’t go home What we gonna do because we can’t go home Let me sleep here in you forest tonight This is Middle Earth calling Middle Earth This is Middle Earth calling Valar help us And it goes on, and on, and on All is here, all is real, open your eyes, you will see This is Middle Earth calling All is here, all is real, open your eyes and you will see us.

SSStaying close to you, feeling your precious power And we’re wondering what you’re wanting, anything my precious ring Then we put you on, our precious birthday present We just wants to stay with you in this moment forever Forever and ever Don’t wanna close our eyes Don’t wanna go to far ‘Coz we miss the precious And we don’t wanna lose the ring Even when we sees you No matter how near That would never do We still wants you preciousss, We don’t wanna lose the ring. I don’t wanna lose the One ring We won’t miss anything We just wants to keep you now right here with us We just want to keep you on Feel your fiery writing on our handses And never takes you out to dangerous landses Precious, precious [Chorus] X2 We don’t want to lose the preciousss

This is silly but fun! ‘We three kings of Orient are’ ‘This One ring of Power is’ by Elfmaster XK This One ring of Power is Sending Middle Earth amiss Field and fountain, moor and mountain All will fall to this [Chorus] O Ring of power, ring of light You twist and bend the peoples sight Deceit and lying, good folk dying Ring of Mordor starts the fight There’s a king upon the plain The line of kings has come again King for ever, ceasing never Over Gondor to reign [Chorus] Only war to offer have I I am Sauron, I cannot die War cries calling, standards raising You will worship me, Sauron most high [Chorus] Middle Earth is mine, victory looms Skies are darkening with gathering gloom Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying You all have met your doom [Chorus] Glorious now behold his downfall Sauron is gone, ring and all Frodo did it, destroyed the ring Thanks to Gollum, he couldn’t resist its call O Ring of power, ring of light You twist and bend the peoples sight No more deceit and lying, or good folk dying Ring of Mordor lost the fight

BTW, thank you for praising my songs. And congrats to Eruviel. 700 posts!!!
This is another of my own songs modified, but personally i think its not as good as some i've done. ‘One Dream, One Soul’ Xenoia Karris ‘One Ring, One Rule’ Elfmaster XK Before you we’re forged I was just another evil guy With dreams to rule the world and never die There are so many damn good folk I see each day But with the One I will scare them all away I’ve got One ring, One rule The things we take over will always be Ours forever, our dreams We seize cities and kill the good folk We take over the world! No one can stop the rule of the One ring Still, we parted you were taken away I was defeated but not destroyed; I rise again today I know you’ll find your way back to me Because you’re the One ring One rule will hold the world One rule unbroken by anything I’ve got One ring, One rule Now you’re coming back to me We have such a power The enemy is desperate The One ring and One rule are here No one can change it now Sauron the Lord of the Ring rules! P.S ‘Follow me’ Uncle Kracker I’ve done the chorus but don’t know the rest of the words so if anyone wants to do the rest please do.Or if anyone has the words and could send them to me that would be helpful. [Gandalf] Follow me and everything is all right I’ll be leading you through Moria tonight And if you want to leave then I can guarantee You’ll get yourself lost without me

Ok, I have three favourite songs, one of them is It's My Life, another is In the Heat of the Night by Bon Jovi, and the other is one that my cousin made me listen to last year called Shot Through The Heart, or perhaps it is You Give Love A Bad Name, I didn't really pay much attention, he sent me the file straight from Morpheus (he downloaded it, not I, O 'against downloading' people) and it had a really weird name, so I dunno.
*Falls asleep from own boringness* Anyway, has anybody ever heard of it OR it's real name OR who actually sung it, it may be by Bon Jovi, but it SOUNDS like Rod Stewert (scary that I know who he is). Please help! It goes like this: Shot through the heart, and you're too late, darling you give love a bad name, I played my pert, You played your game, Darling you give love a bad name, etc, etc. Coz I was thinking of massacring it, but if nobody's heard of it then there's no point. Merci buckets. -Rosie-

It's okay Rosie-lass, i know what you're talking about. (If thats a consolation!)
It is called You give love a bad name by Bon Jovi, you were right. Its on the 'one wild night' album if that helps.

Ai! I can't type for laughing. These are wonderful! How do you find time to write so many?
Another came to my mind about an hour ago. It is completely ludicrous, but I thought I would post it anyway: Once I Was Flattened (Nights in White Satin) ~The ballad of Peregrin Took, as sung by him in a tavern in Bree after too much questing, and too much mead: Once I was flattened, By a large troll's rear end. Once I was bitten No, wait, that was my friend. Duty I've always missed: I was wise before. Now I am foolish To be one of these four. And I love food. Yes, I love food. Ohh, how I love foooood. Glancing at Frodo, Ring in his hand. Just why he's doing this, I can't understand. Sam tried to tell me But my mind did not bend. Just how very short I was Only entwash can mend. And I love food. Yes, I love food. Ohh, how I love foooood. (Instrumental interlude, in which Pippin eats a hasty second supper. By the time it comes to the singing, he has fallen to sleep with too much drink and food, and the song is continued by Meriadoc Brandybuck, singing to imitate Fangorn...) Once I was maddened, By this hasty young man, This fur-footed kitten, I held in my hand. (Then a grumbling Sam concludes the song...) Who does he think he is? The great oversized boar. What my own Master did, He takes credit for. (Sam and Merry in conflicting tenor and baritone...) But we love you. Yes, we love you. Whyyy do we love you? But we love you. Yes, we love you. Whyyy do we love you?
