Sorry for using the same song...but it suddenly dawned on me that another part of Linkin Park's Numb was so appropriate for Faramir.

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
I don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

Every step that I take is another mistake to you
And every second I waste is more than I can take

This Ring (movie Frodo)

I was so high
I only recognized the fire burning in his Eye
The chaos that controlled my mind
Whispered goodbye, Sam stepped on a stone
Never to return again
But always in my heart ... (I guess)

This Ring has talken its toll on me
I've never said goodbye to him ever before
And his heart is breaking in front of me
But I have no choice
'Cause I don't have lembas anymore

Since a number of people have posted song parodies here, I thought you might enjoy this related thread: Song Parodies.

In accordance to what KA said Not a girl, not yet a woman, by Britney Spears might be appropriate for Legolas. Really shows his inner conflict

On a serious note Josh Groban's You Raise me up for Frodo and Sam.

I thought this one would be funny to 'Tolkienize'...

original song: All tomorrow's Parties by Velvet Underground

What costume shall the poor orc wear
To all tomorrow's raiding parties
A hand-me-down dress from who knows where
To all tomorrow's raiding parties

And where will he go and what shall he be
When midnight comes around
He'll turn once more to Sauron's clown
And cry behind the black gate

And what costume shall the poor orc wear
To all tomorrow's raiding parties
Why silks and linens of yesterday's gowns
To all tomorrow's raiding parties

And what will he do with Balrog's rags
When the field of Cormallen comes around
he'll turn once more to Sauron's clown
And cry behind the black gate

And what costume shall the poor orc wear
To all tomorrow's raiding parties
For Melkor's child is Sauron's clown
For whom none will go mourning
A blackened shroud, a hand-me-down gown
Of rags and silks, a costume
It's fine for one who sits and cries
For all tomorrow's raiding parties

What do you think?
