Lotr The Musical!!!

It popped into my head yesterday and I can’t get it out. I’ve had Gimi singing his version of that choir song Gloria in my head:

MO OoOoO OoOoO OoOoORIA!!
I also picture Pippen singing Blue Eyes Crying as:

I

Ooops. Accidently hit submit too soon.

Pippen was supposed to be singing

In the palantir I see red eyes prying in my brain!!

Pick a character, find an appropriate song and adjust accordingly.

Would this be the time to mention that it actually does exist?

He seemed so happy, I didn’t want to burst his bubble.

I’m thinkin’ Denethor singing “Master of the House” from Les Miserables. Plus it has the whole Seinfeld thing goin’ on.

How about instead if they used “Maria” from West Side Story

Moria!
We’re now in the Mines of Mo-ria!
And suddenly I’ve found
How wonderful a Mine Can Be!

What does Lotr mean, please? I know I should know. And I think it should be in a glossary of terms somewhere. :mad:

I didn’t write this, but here’s something I saved from a messageboard I can’t remember many years ago prior to the LOTR movies coming out…it never fails to make me grin.

Lothlorien Rhapsody
Written by Freddie Mercury
(As told by Dionysus, performed by Frodo and the Sweathogs)

                    (Frodo)
                    Is this the real life?
                    Is this High Fantasy?
                    Caught in a land war.
                    No escaping my destiny.

                    (Sam)
                    Open your eyes, look up to the sky and see...

                    (Frodo)
                    I’m just a Hobbit, I need no sympathy.
                    These Rings are easy come, easy go, Little high, little low.
                    Anywhere these Rings go doesn’t really matter to me, to me...

                    (Eowyn)
                    Mama, just killed a wraith,
                    Put my sword up to his head, 
                    Ran him through and now he’s dead.

                    (Gollum)
                    Mama, life had just begun,
                    But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away.

                    (Frodo)
                    Mama, oooh, Didn’t mean to make you cry,
                    If I’m not back again this time tomorrow,
                    Carry on, carry on, as if these Rings don’t really matter...

                    (Sauron)
                    Too late, my time has come,
                    Sends shivers down my spine, body’s aching all the time.

                    (Bilbo)
                    Goodbye, ev’rybody, I’ve got to go...
                    Gotta leave you all behind and face the West....

                    (Gollum)
                    Mama, ooooh, [(Frodo) Anywhere the Rings go...] I don’t want to die.
                    I sometimes wish I’d never found this Ring at all....

                    (Cool guitar riff.)

                    (Hobbits)
                    I see a little silhouetto of a man, 
                    Saruman! Saruman! What will you do with Frodo? 
                    (The Nine Wraiths)
                    Thunderbolts and lightning, very, very fright’ning- me!

                    (Merry) Gandalf-eo! (Legolas) The Grey Pilgram! 
                    (Merry) Gandalf-eo! (Legolas) The Grey Pilgram! 
                    (Merry and Legolas) Gandalf-eo, Mithrandir...
                    (Gollum) Smeagol....

                    (Frodo)
                    I’m just a Hobbit and nobody loves me. 
                    (Fellowship)
                    He’s just a Baggins, from a Shire family.
                    Spare him his life of this Ring bear-r-ring. 

                    (Gollum)
                    Easy come, easy go. Will you let me go?
                    (Fellowship) The Stinker! (Sam) No, I will not let you go!
                    (The Nine) Let him go!
                    (Fellowship) The Stinker! (Sam) I will not let you go!
                    (The Nine) Let him go!
                    (Fellowship) The Stinker! (Sam) I will not let you go!
                    (Gollum) Let me go!
                    (Sam and Frodo) Will not let you go!
                    (Gollum) Let me go!
                    (Sam and Frodo) Will not let you go!
                    (Gollum) Let me goooo!...
                    (Fellowship) No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

                    (Bilbo)
                    Mama mia, mama mia!
                    (Gollum)
                    Mama mia let me go!

                    (Frodo)
                    The Loooord of Mordor has a Ring-Wraith set aside for me...
                    For Me......
                    For MEEEEEEE!!!

                    (REALLY cool guitar riff.)

                    (Sauron)
                    So you think you can fool me and spit in my Eye?
                    (Gollum)
                    So you think you can use me and leave to die?
                    (Sauron and Gollum)
                    Oh, Frodo! Can’t do this to me, Frodo!

                    (Frodo and Sam)
                    Just gotta get out! Just gotta get right outta here...

                    (Even more cool guitar...)

                    (All)
                    Oohh Yeah! Oooh Yeah!

                    (Galadriel)
                    These Rings don’t really matter, anyone can see...
                    (Elrond)
                    These Rings don’t really matter...
                    (Gandalf)
                    These Rings don’t really matter...
                    (Galadriel, Elrond, Gandalf, Bilbo)
                    To me.....

                    (Frodo)
                    Anywhere these Rings go...

Never mind. I thought of it right after I hit Submit. :smack:

Great. Now whenever I hear Van Morrison or Patti Smith sing “Gloria” I’ll be hearing “Moria”.

Loved the Queen version - was that in the giant “If LOTR had been written by someone else” thread?

I like this one a lot, but then it is my favorite play.

GargoyleWB, that was great.

You guys do know that Mad Magazine did this years ago don’t you?
