There is a song called King Of The Mountain by Kate Bush that, for me, really reminds me of that scene in the Hobbit when all the Dwarves get their instruments out and play the song about going and freeing the Lonely Mountain. I would post the lyrics but that it's not those that remind me, it's the music, and that one line 'king of the mountain', which I continually mishear as 'king under the mountain'.
