I was looking for the thread that contains your Lord of the Rings Christmas carols, but I'm not finding it. I remember that you have them somewhere off-site, though. Could you post a link, or bump the thread that you originally posted them in?

Pooka worked her google-fu and found this thread for me.

I knew those were great, but I'd forgotten just how incredibly clever they were.

I seem to recall that there were more of them, though. Anybody know if I'm remembering correctly?

[Big Grin] I'm so tickled you came looking for them. I used to have them on my website but I shut that website down. Now I have an address but no actual website. I've been toying with the idea of putting them on a purpose-specific blog.

There are more than there were in that thread. For example, the first one is no longer Deck the Halls, but this one:

quote:
1. Do You Know What I Know (Do You Hear What I Hear) – Galadriel

Said the Dark Lord to the little rings
Do you know what I know?
Darkest lord to the little rings
Do you know what I know?
A ring, a ring most evil of them all
I will forge it and all then will fall
I will forge it and all then will fall

Said Isildur to the Darkest Lord
Do you hear what I hear?
Isildur to the Darkest Lord
Do you hear what I hear?
A war, a war the sound of allied horde
And a finger severed by my sword.
A finger severed by my sword.

Said the evil ring to King Isildur
Do you see what I see?
Evil ring to King Isildur
Do you see what I see?
A bow, a bow; an ambush, an attack
And an arrow stuck in your back,
Yes an arrow stuck in your back.

Said Smeagol to his friend Deagol.
What is that I wants it?!
Smeagol to his poor cousin Deagol.
What is that I wants it?!
Preciousss, Preciousss, shining in the sun
And a murder can never be undone
Yes, a murder can never be undone.

Said Bilbo making riddles in the dark.
What is this I’ve found here?
Bilbo making riddles in the dark.
What is this I’ve found here?
A ring, a ring, a magic band of gold;
A pretty little thing to behold,
Yes, a pretty little thing to behold.

If someone suggests a way of quickly putting them up for the viewing pleasure of others, that would be great. Otherwise I can re-post them all here.

Well, the are pretty fantastic, and it is that time of year. What actually got me looking for them, though, was my mom asking me for a link to them (I showed them to her years ago) because she wanted to share them with a coworker.

Didn't you have all of them posted on your own site at one point? Was that something that was maintained only so long as you were in university?

I would guess that Mike would be willing to host them for you over at sake, with links to them off of the front page. I can't speak for him, of course, but it would be worth asking him about.

It was maintained until I decided I didn't want the site anymore. In retrospect, not a good choice.

I shall ask Mike.

Rough Draft

It's not pretty, but it works.

EDIT: I need a frame for a song. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

code:
<frameset cols=200,*>
<frame src="mp.html"
marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"
noresize
scrolling="no">
<frame src="orcs.html"
marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"
noresize
scrolling="no">
</frameset>

EDIT #2:

This is an incomplete version. There are a few more songs missing. This is just a quick fix.
