i heard somewhere that a handful of popular bands had done random songs on LOTR/Tolkien. Does anyone know what they are? Imcurious to hear them, since im a pretty big LOTR nerd myself
This is comedic, but I love flight of the conchords :icon_bigg [YOUTUBE]http://youtube.com/watch?v=SWf3iJjqYCM[/YOUTUBE]
Led Zeppelin have a few songs that have little references to Middle-earth. 'Ramble On', 'The Battle of Evermore' and 'Misty Mountain Hop' are some that come to mind. They aren't really about The Lord of the Rings per se, but they do have little references and they arguably seem inspired in some way by LOTR. Oh, and apparently Robert Plant's dog is named Strider.
I almost forgot! ...Who could forget Leonard Nimoy's 'Ballad of Bilbo Baggins'? [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFR-8NVjw-k[/YOUTUBE]
Close enough. [youtube]FmWbBqiCxGc[/youtube] I got a Spiderman T-shirt I got Converse that are rotting off my feet I got a bad mustache A reoccurring rash And not a lot of cash I spend it on my stash Man, it's good to be a geek Well it's good to be a geek It's good to be a creep It's good to draw my pictures that no one will ever see. It's good to be a geek It's good to be unknown It's good I'm never waiting right beside the telephone. ('cause no one ever...) I play Dungeons & Dragons I got a 13th level halfling fighter-thief Got seven hit die on my back-stab Sometimes you know it's good to be a geek. It's good to be a geek It's good to play the freak It's good to comb my mullet Once every other week As far as I can see It's good to play the Wii Then stay up painting Miniatures til two or three. Someday I'll learn to play guitar Start up a band and be a star And when you wind up pumping gas Just fill 'er up and kiss my ass I'm addicted to Star Trek I'm a Klingon-speaking Federation freak I find I'm more inclined To spend the bulk of my time On the Starship Enterprise Than talking to girls I meet Well I never get the girl But I like to be alone 'Cause I can always masturbate When there's no one home It's good to have a plan It's good to be the man It's good to download porno From a website in Japan Someday I'll learn to play guitar Start up a band and be a star And when you wind up pumping gas Just fill 'er up and kiss my ass. Ninth grade is when I got the swirlie Tenth grade is when I got the Indian burn Four years of continuous wedgies Wore nine pairs of briefs so they could all get a turn Someday I'll buy a fancy condo Someday I'll drive a car that's more than your house Someday you'll kiss my ass... It's good to make some noise it's good to scream out loud it's good to feel immortal Like your last name is McCloud It's good to be a geek It's good to be unseen It's good to watch The Wrath of Khan on a plasma screen It's good to be a geek It's good to be the man It's good to download porno From a website in Japan It's good to be a geek It's good to be unknown It's good I'm never waiting Right beside the telephone ('cause no one ever...) I got a bad mustache A reoccurring rash And not a lot of cash I spend it on my stash Man, it's good to be a geek You know I don't intend To look like Boba Fett I got my Holland set Although it makes me sweat Man, it's good to be a geek.
