Here's Queen before I get some shut-eye:
(originally Bohemian Rhapsody)

Meriadoc's Rhapsody

Is this the Mark's life?
Is this just fantasy?
Snuck in the Mark's ride
No escape from my destiny
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and freeze
I'm just a hobbit, I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
A little light, little low
Anyway the wind blows, battle has descended upon me

Gandalf, 'just killed a wraith
'Pushed a blade against its leg
Then came Dernhelm, now it's dead
Gandalf, pain has just begun
But now I need to make it go away
Gandalf, ooo
Didn't want to have to lie
I just want to get back to fight tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters

Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body's aching all the time
Goodbye everybody - I've got to go
Gotta still pay back the pipe weed owed to you
Gandalf, ooo - (anyway the wind blows)
I don't want to die
I sometimes wish I'd never have left the Shire

I see a noble silhouetto of a man
Aragorn, Aragorn will you chew the Athelas
Thunderbolts and Ring-Wraiths - very very frightening me
Meriadoc, Meriadoc,
Meriadoc, Meriadoc,
Meriadoc Brandybuck - Rohirrimoooooo

But I'm just a Shire boy and nobody loves me
He's just a Shire boy from a Shire family
Spare him his life from this necromancy
Easy come easy go - will you let me go
Gilthoniel! No - we will not let you go - let him go
Gilthoniel! We will not let you go - let him go
Gilthoniel! We will not let you go - let me go
Will not let you go - let me go (never)
Never let you go - let me go
Never let me go - ooo
No, no, no, no, no, no, no -
Oh Periannath, Periannath, Periannath do not go
This Morgul blade did the Witch-King put aside for me
for me
for me

So you think you can catch me for your Lidless Eye!
So you think you can curse me and pull me to die!
Oh Pippin - can't feel a thing until now
Just gotta get up - just gotta get right outta here

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Nothing really matters
Anyone can see
Nothing really matters - nothing really matters to me

Anyway the wind blows...

Cirdan-that was great! I love that song-blackbird!
(Is all I will be able to manage to do here is compliment people? Must go write something!)
I'll try to do some more Beatles songs. . .Octopus's Garden is mine! Er, that was probably unnecessary. . .but that's my next song to Tolkienify. I'm slow at it though, might take me a while.

The Bealtles are good to use 'cause everybody knows the tunes. I have a hard time hearing these songs if i don't know the tunes.
Thanks for the props...

Some suggestions:
1. Carpenters
2. The Doors
3. Dionne Warwick/Burt Bacharach/Hal David
4. The Actress-who-played-Arwen's Dad's band
5. New Wave bands
6. Pop singers (Madonna, MJ, etc.)

O.k. I know this is like really bad but I was bored so feel free to suggest any changes!


Britney Spears, Stronger


Hush, just stop
There’s nothing you can do or say, Samwise
I’ve had enough, I’m not it’s property as from today, baby

You might think that I won't make it without that ring
But now I’m Stronger than yesterday
Now it’s nothing but melted gold,
My weighted chain ain’t killing me no more
I’m stronger

Than I ever thought that I could be, baby

Orcs used to be my only foe,
Didn’t really care ‘bout me
You might think that I can’t take it, without that ring

but now I’m Stronger than yesterday
Now it’s just in a fiery hell
My weighted chest ain’t killing me no more
I’m stronger
Come on, now
Oh, yeah

Here I go, to the Shire
I don’t need no ring, better off alone
Here I go, back to Bag end
I don’t need no ring, not any ring,
Here I go, alright, here I go

Stronger than yesterday
Now it’s nothing but melted gold
My weighted chain ain’t killing me no more
I’m stronger

Sorry Strawberry, I couldn't resist doing this one:


Pelennor Fields
(Originally Strawberry Fields by John Lennon/Paul McCartney)

Let me take you down, 'cos I'm riding to Pelennor Fields
Fighting is real, with mumacs and ologs charging 'bout
Pelennor Fields forever

Killing is easy when singing, a habit practiced by the Rohirrim
It's getting hard to hack someone but it all works out, it doesn't matter much to me
Let me take you down, 'cos I'm riding to Pelennor Fields
Fighting is real, and nothing to get hungabout
Pelennor Fields forever

No one I think lived lest they flee, I mean it's either flight or blow
That is no one who has lived thus who did not take flight, in that case it is not too bad

Let me take you down, 'cos I'm riding to Pelennor Fields
Fighting is real, with mumacs and ologs charging 'bout
Pelennor Fields forever

Always, no sometimes, think it's me, but you know I know when it's a dream
I think I know I mean a "Yes" but it's all wrong, that is I think I disagree

Let me take you down, 'cos I'm riding to Pelennor Fields
Fighting is real, and nothing to get hungabout
Pelennor Fields forever
Pelennor Fields forever
Pelennor Fields forever

Well they could sing "A hard Day's Night" from the Shire to Rivendell.

Oh BTW, here's another Tolkienified song based on one composed by Burt Bacharach and original lyrics by Hal David(Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head):

WormTongue Keeps Messing with My Head

WormTongue keeps messing with my head
He just keeps on railing 'bout the safety of my bed
Says I'll soon be dead
Coz WormTongue keeps messing with my head, he keeps messing

So I just did me some talkin' to the Grey
And he said that I should really ride out, don't delay
White's betrayed the Grey
Worse: WormTongue keeps messing with my head, he keeps messing

But there's one thing I know
The Mark they still believe me, they won't leave me
It won't be long 'til Meriadoc comes to greet me

WormTongue keeps messing with my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes are too blind, too misled
Resting's not for me
Cause I'm mustering the Mark from Meduseld
No I won't flee
Let that Grima go free
