What if Randy Newman did the theme to Lord of the Rings...


Short background on this piece:

This song was performed by a duo called Paul and Storm during the Bob and Tom Radio Show on January 19, 2005. Paul and Storm were previously in the band Da Vinci’s Notebook. Anyway, this is their take on what the Lord of the Rings theme song would sound like if performed by Randy Newman of Toy Story fame.

Paul and Storm - LOTR Theme

And if someone could be so kind as to help host this, I fear my geocities bandwidth might not be sufficient.

Enjoy!

I've mirrored the song:

The man I loved - the man who vanished - he never came back at all. But maybe he's still out there, somewhere. Maybe some day, when Gotham no longer needs Batman, I'll see him again.

Couldn't he just change some of the lyrics to "Short People"?

Good stuff.

Fun stuff. Maybe PJ can recruit these guys if he ever does 'The Hobbit.' Randy Newman might actually be a good casting choice as Bilbo Baggins.

If Peter Jackson decides to make "Bored of the Rings" this would fit as well...
