How about "Thriller"?

"It's Close To Midnight And Something Evil's Lurking In The Dark
Under The Moonlight You See A Sight That Almost Stops Your Heart
You Try To Scream But Terror Takes The Sound Before You Make It
You Start To Freeze As Horror Looks You Right Between The Eyes,
You're Paralyzed

'Cause This Is Thriller, Thriller Night
And No One's Gonna Save You From The Beast About To Strike
You Know It's Thriller, Thriller Night
You're Fighting For Your Life Inside A Killer, Thriller
Tonight

You Hear The Door Slam And Realize There's Nowhere Left To Run
You Feel The Cold Hand And Wonder If You'll Ever See The Sun
You Close Your Eyes And Hope That This Is Just Imagination
But All The While You Hear The Creature Creepin' Up Behind
You're Out Of Time

'Cause This Is Thriller, Thriller Night
There Ain't No Second Chance Against The Thing With Forty Eyes
You Know It's Thriller, Thriller Night
You're Fighting For Your Life Inside Of Killer, Thriller Tonight"

I've not been silly today yet, so here are a few more, the joke's in the titles :


Grima - Creep- Radiohead
Grima to Aragorn - Get Your Hands off my Woman - the Darkness
Beren/Luthien - Ever Fallen in Love With Someone (You Shouldn’t Have Fallen in Love With) - Buzzcocks
Earendil - Ray of Light - Madonna
Frodo - I started Something I couldn’t Finish - The Smiths (a bit mean...)
The Ring - How to Disappear Completely - Radiohead
Goldberry - Down by the Water - PJ Harvey
The Balrog - Firestarter - prodigy


EDIT: and for Shelob and all her kind, what about the creepiest spider song of all time? Lullaby by the Cure? "the spider man is having me for dinner tonight".

Ah, yes. I've been trying to work that one into a series of Grima-centric songfics I've got, but alas, anything I think of is all too cliche....

So Eldarinly melancholic. Keane rocks.
Aye. Applies very nicely.

I wish I could think of something to add, but my mind is not really working properly tonight.

hmm... where to start...


Aragorn: "I was born on the other side/of a town ripped in two/i made it over the great divide/now i'm coming for you..." ~ John Cameron Mitchell

I really don't know why but, I tend to compare "divide" by the fact that Aragorn spent most of his time in the north (the two different kingdoms that were ruled by the numenoreans) before the fellowship. Another is "town ripped in two" (the fact that men where 'divided' in middle earth, or in other words, too many past disputes and grudges.)

Faramir: "The perfect Fit" ~ Dresden Dolls... A lovely piano rock song about a not-so-perfect being, forced to be. "i can't fix a car/but i can fix a flat/i could fix alot of things/but i'd rather not get into that"... "

Another for Aragorn is: "Half Jack" ~ Dresden Dolls

Well, i've done my share. Until next time...

Hah! Thought of one.

"Comfortably Numb" by the ever-glorious Pink Floyd describes Theoden under the influence of Saruman and Grima. Of course, the extent of his deterioration and helplessness depends on whether you go by the book or movie version of Theodon, but either way it's applicable. Lyrics hither for those of ye who are unfamiliar with the lovely tune.

I wonder if that's a crime in M-E... RUI: Ruling Under the Influence. Hah. Oh, don't mind me, too much history and a surplus of Supreme Court cases are making me delerious. Four AP American History essays down, one to go. I'm so efficient.

Question More songs!

Balrogs: Fallin' by someone (I forgot--too many local versions!)
I'm afraid to fly
And I don't know why
I'm jealous of the people who are not afraid to die
It's just that that I recall
Back when I was small
Someone told me that I could fly
But then it's really false
And now I'm fallin'
Fallin' fast again . . .
~*~

Arwen and Aragorn: Beauty and the Beast

That'll fit better for Legolas and Gimli.

Question More Keane!

Fading Elves: Everybody's Changing
You're gone from here
And soon you will disappear
Fading into beautiful light
Cause everybody's changing
And I don't feel right
