If symestreem's guess is incorrect, coul you give a hint, Di?

Diamond18 06-07-2006 11:31 AM

Alright, it's a female character singing to a male character and they're from the Silmarillion.

But symestreem's guess is wrong.

Now there's a surprise. ;)

Aredhel to Eol?

Diamond18 06-07-2006 05:01 PM

Bingo! :D

Your turn.

symestreem 06-07-2006 05:11 PM

*dies of shock* :eek:

There will be a brief pause while I read the rest of the thread and make sure I'm not repeating... and try to retrieve those ideas from two years ago. Back as quick as I can.

From "Keep the Customer Satisfied". Probably before the time of most of the young 'uns here. ;)

Glirdan 06-08-2006 05:40 AM

My guess is Bilbo.

Thinlómien 06-08-2006 06:38 AM

Sam?

symestreem 06-08-2006 06:58 AM

Glirdan's got it. It could possibly work for Sam, too, except they came back to the Scouring of the Shire, whereas Bilbo did not.

And so ends my attempt to indoctrinate you into the good ol' music of the good ol' days-- for now. ;)

Glirdan 06-08-2006 02:27 PM

Ooo! I have a song in mind, but I need to go on a hunt for the lyrics. I shall be back! :D

I think this might be a little harder then you think, but have at it! :D

Diamond18 06-09-2006 09:25 PM

Obvious guess first -- is it the Ring singing?

Glirdan 06-09-2006 09:26 PM

Nope, more complicater then that. Guess again.

symestreem 06-09-2006 09:34 PM

Is it the Silmaril that was cast into the chasm in the Earth?

Glirdan 06-09-2006 10:05 PM

OOO! That's a good one! But not right. Let me know when you want a hint.

Diamond18 06-09-2006 11:56 PM

Sauron singing to the Ring?

Thinlómien 06-10-2006 11:54 AM

Frodo or Gollum to the Ring?

Glirdan 06-10-2006 12:53 PM

Neither are right. Want a hint?

Diamond18 06-10-2006 04:08 PM

Shelob to Gollum.

Hey, I'm being creative. :p

Kath 06-10-2006 04:09 PM

Gandalf to Saruman?

Okay, I'll give you the creative part. However, you're wrong and I'm afraid you are as well Kath.

Here's a hint: Think couples.

Diamond18 06-11-2006 01:53 PM

Sauron to his lady love...

:p

Okay, no. Goldberry to Tom? I would be thinking Aredhel to Eol but I just did that one....

Glirdan 06-11-2006 01:54 PM

Well, your second guess would be right, but since you haven't guessed it per se... :p Just kidding, take it away Di.

Diamond18 06-11-2006 09:34 PM

Aha! Sneaky. I wasn't going to mention it because I thought, "Nah..." but I couldn't think of anything else.

I'll come back with lyrics later.

Glirdan 06-13-2006 02:38 PM

Never mind me being sneaky! Sheez! This one could apply to so many people! So, my first guess will be...Gollum to the Ring.

Thinlómien 06-13-2006 02:40 PM

Elrond to Arwen?

Diamond18 06-13-2006 03:03 PM

Sorry, no.

But you're right, that was too generic. Here is another part of the same song, more specific to my answer:

Quote:

I would fall asleep
Only in hopes of dreaming
That everything would be like it was before
But nights like this it seems are slowly fleeting
They disappear as reality is crashing to the floor

symestreem 06-13-2006 03:11 PM

Beren to Luthien?

Thinlómien 06-13-2006 03:11 PM

Galadriel to Lothlórien?

Or more generally, Elves to Middle-Earth?

Diamond18 06-13-2006 09:15 PM

Nope and nope.

Glirdan 06-14-2006 05:50 AM

Sauron to the Ring?

Diamond18 06-14-2006 09:20 AM

Close, but no.

Diamond18 06-15-2006 12:47 PM

Hint:

Both of Glirdan's guesses have been extremely close to the mark.

symestreem 06-15-2006 02:24 PM

Frodo to the Ring?

Diamond18 06-15-2006 02:52 PM

That's the one. Actually, the first excerpt is Frodo to the Ring and the second excerpt is Frodo after the scouring of the Shire.

Anyway, your turn.

symestreem 06-16-2006 07:34 AM

More brainwashing. Bwaha.

Okay, this isn't as obscure as it looks at first. The clue is night.

Glirdan 06-16-2006 02:39 PM

Hmm, the first thing that comes to mind is Varda to Manwë....and yes, that's my guess.

symestreem 06-16-2006 02:46 PM

Nope, sorry. :)

Kath 06-17-2006 04:35 PM

Er, weird guess but Rosie to Sam?
