[Gurthang]

*clears throat* Well, here we are again for another delightful round of Gurthang-don't-know-his-genres-well-enough. I was pretty much limited to Ray Charles, BB King, and Aretha Franklin. I couldn't find any BB King anywhere, and TORE has (under my guidance) done a song by Ray already, so I didn't want to double up. So it was Aretha that I chose, which now means it will look like I'm copying off Celuien and will be doubling up anyway. I don't suppose you'd believe I had the song done before she had posted hers? Anyway, my song is simple called Silmaril and I will be singing as Thingol to Beren regarding his daughter and the fetching of a Silmaril. (listen to Respect by Aretha Franklin to get a feel of how it might sound.)


(oo) What you want
(oo) Beren, I got
(oo) What you need
(oo) Do you know I got it?
(oo) All I'm askin'
(oo) Is for a little Silmaril when you come back (just a little one)
Hey Beren (just a little one) when you get back
(just a little one) mister (just a little one)

I ain't gonna do you harm that's what I swore
Ain't gonna do you harm (oo) But what I want (oo)
All I'm askin' (oo)
Is for a little Silmaril when you come back (just a little one)
Beren (just a little one) when you get back (just a little one)
Yeah (just a little one)

If I'm to give you my daughter's hand
And all I'm askin' in return is a gem
You should hold me generous
When you come back (just a, just a, just a, just a)
Yeah Beren (just a, just a, just a, just a)
When you get back (just a little one)
Yeah (just a little one)

------ instrumental break ------

Ooo, your deeds (oo)
Braver than many (oo)
But guess what? (oo)
I love my daughter plenty (oo)
So I want you to do (oo) for me
Is give me a Silmaril when you come back (Sil, Sil, Sil, Sil)
Yeah Beren (Sil, Sil, Sil, Sil)
Bring it to me (Silmaril, just a little one)
When you get back, now (just a little one)

S-I-L-M-A-R-I-L
Find and bring one back to me
S-I-L-M-A-R-I-L
That is what it must be

Oh (bring it to me, bring it to me,
bring it to me, bring it to me)
A little Silmaril (bring it to me, bring it to me,
bring it to me, bring it to me)
Whoa, Beren (just a little one)
A little Silmaril (just a little one)
I'm not lyin' (just a little one)
About this errand (just a little one)
So you better start movin' (just a little one)
Times is wastin' (just a little one)
(Sil, Sil, Sil, Sil) 'maril
When you come back (Sil, Sil, Sil, Sil)
If you should walk in (Silmaril, just a little one)
You must have a gem (just a little one)
I got to have (just a little one)
A little Silmaril (just a little one)
