Thanks. But I haven't been at it for a while now. I'm getting rusty, I think.

funny little joke

Here is a funny little joke that I found on the internet:

Gandalf: "I am servent of the secret fire wielder of the flame of andor, you cannot pass!"

Balrog: "Gandalf..... I am your father."

Gandalf: *gasp* *faints*

There's a song everyone seems to be singing in the office lately...

It's by a 17 yr old lass named Avril Lavigne. Here's a version I did just now when I woke up in the office...

Frustrated
(Originally COMPLICATED by Avril Lavigne)

Uh huh, elves’re like this
Uh huh, uh huh, that's the way it is
While dwarves’re like this
Uh huh, uh huh that's the way it is

Sail out whatcha mumblin’ for?
Westward it's where they’ve gone before
And if you could only trust in me
Master Gimli
She likes you the way you are
When you’re calling her a star
and you're telling stories, dwarf to elf, that you’re in love

Some other elf yes another elf
You're watching your back you’re holding your axe
You're checking your tools you look like a fool at sea
Tell me

Why'd you have to fall for her you’ll only be frustrated?
I see the way you're acting like in Lothlorien well she’s just over-rated
Elves’re like this they
Well they sing while you crawl and they dream while you take what you mine and I don’t know what’s your destiny
and promise me we’re never gonna go regret it
no no no

You pass westward unannounced
Dressed up like you're not a dwarf
Those eldar in Eldamar you see
they’re teasing me
Head out don’t you strike a pose
Take off all those elvish clothes
You know you're not fooling anyone
when you become

Some other elf yes another elf
You're watching your back you’re holding your axe
You're checking your tools you look like a fool at sea
Tell me

Why'd you have to fall for her you’ll only be frustrated?
I see the way you're acting like in Lothlorien well she’s just over-rated
Elves’re like this they
Well they sing while you crawl and they dream while you take what you mine and I don’t know what’s your destiny
and promise me we’re never gonna go regret it
no no

Cast out whatcha mumbling for?
Pull back, the ship will reach the shore
And if you would only come with me
You will see

Some other elf yes another elf
You're watching your back you’re holding your axe
You're checking your tools you look like a fool at sea
Tell me

Why'd you have to fall for her you’ll only be frustrated?
I see the way you're acting like in Lothlorien well she’s just over-rated
Elves’re like this they
Well they sing while you crawl and they dream while you take what you mine and I don’t know what’s your destiny
and promise me we’re never gonna go regret it
no no

Thanks guys. I'm particularly proud of that last one. :)

The most difficult part of mangling a song is usually choosing which song to do.

After that, it's a matter of choosing a middle-earth theme and then losing yourself in that theme. 'takes about an hour or less...

I've learned that it's easiest to do all these when I'm happy, very very sleepy, sad or heart-broken; when my hypothalamus seems to be overpowering my analytic centers...

Heh, not been here for a while! But that was good Oh great bard! I knew it too EG!

Anyhow, *stretches fingers* Here goes one from me. Parts of it are the same, but they fitted.


( Originally Iris by Goo Goo Dolls)

Ranger (from POV of Eowyn)

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause i don't want to stay here without you
You just came into my life to leave
And I don't want anything but now

And all I want is me and you
And all I want is for you to live
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't wanna be left behind

And I only want to come with you
'Cause I thought you'd understand
When everything is over
I just want you to know who I am

And I can't fight my fears that aren't coming
I never get a chance to anyway
When everything feels like a vision
Yeah, you need pain to know you're alive

And I only want to come with you
'Cause I thought you'd understand
When everything is over
I just want you to know who I am

And I only want to come with you
'Cause I thought you'd understand
When everything is over
I just want you to know who I am

And I only want to come with you
'Cause I thought you'd understand
When everything is over
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am


There, i hope that's not too murderous to the original song! *sigh*

Great song, your's is as well, E XK!

Googoo Dolls will be having a concert here in Manila in a few weeks; and shortly after that, we'll have Oasis!

Here's one mangled from their classic:

They Don’t Easily Fall
(Originally WONDERWALL by Oasis)

This age is gonna be the age that they're gonna take the Ring from you
By now you shoulda somehow realized what those men could do
I don't believe that any balrog feels the way wraiths do about you now

Black heat, the orcs are on their feet coz the fire in your realm is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before but you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that any balrog feels the way wraiths do about you now

And all the fords we have to wade are winding
And all the wights that lead us there are minding
There are many tales that I would like to wail to you
But I don't dare howl

Because maybe
Those hobbits are the ones that end thee
And after all
They don’t eas’ly fall

This age was gonna be the age that they'll never give the One to you
By now you shoulda somehow realized what those elves could do
I don't believe that any watcher feels the way we do about you now

And all the scents that lead us there were failing
And all the lights that lead those two are blinding
There are many tales that I would like to wail to you
But I don't dare howl

I said maybe
That Gollum is the one that takes thee
And after all
He did take that fall

Because maybe
Those hobbits are the ones that end thee
And after all
They don’t eas’ly fall

I said maybe
Those hobbits are the ones that end thee
Those hobbits are the ones that end thee
Those hobbits are the ones that end thee

rough outline

Well I heard an annoying song on the radio and decided to make it into an annoying middle-earth song. I can't seem to remember most of the words so I can only do the chorus but here goes


Fly like an eagle by Seal

I want to walk into Mordor
Oh those Nazgul follow me
I want to walk into Mordor
Let that Sauron set me free

Gotta feed those hobbits
Who ain't hadda 'nuff to eat
Don't gotta shoe no hobbits
Who got big leath-er-y feet
Gotta find that Gandalf
Who fell down real deep

Walk right into the Black Land.

Sorry if that was terrible.

It wasn't terrible! Do try your hand at other songs, too...we always like more mangles.
Wonderful songs, EXK and Arathorn! *cheers*
Now someone PM and explain where from and how to download stuff so I can listen to the original song...rawr. Please? Thankee.

Yep. The girls here in the office wanna see Googoo Dolls while the guys wanna watch Oasis. I'm certainly gonna see the latter. I'll be sure to ask them if they know you, Xen. Of course, I'm not sure if they'd hear me ask or whether they do know you.
