I DID IT YESSSSSSSS

For the ongoing hobbit4ham shenanigans! This is a recorded version of ‘Wait For It’ as sung by Bilbo, with added accompaniment and chorus bc reasons.

(HEY @culturalrebel I WENT NUTS AGAIN)

(originally posted here, lyrics reproduced under the cut heeeeey)

[BILBO]
Writing out the story in the Red Book every day
I’m keeping the lamp lit while your light is away
He’s on the other side of twilight,
He tried to take back what was his,
But now the nights are growing darker,
and it is what it is.

Love doesn’t discriminate
Between the sinners
And the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
And we keep loving anyway
We laugh and we cry
And we break
And we make our mistakes
And if there’s a reason beyond my pride
That I stayed by his side
Then I’m willing to wait for it
I’m willing to wait for it

My grandfather was a Thain and a great tactician
But there are things of which the Shire has no suspicion
My mother loved adventure
My father commanded respect
When they died they left no instructions
Just a legacy to protect

[BILBO/DEAD DWARF PEANUT GALLERY]

Death doesn’t discriminate
Between the sinners
And the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
And we keep living anyway
We rise and we fall
And we break
And we make our mistakes
And if there’s a reason I’m still alive
When everyone who loves me has died
I’m willing to wait for it
I’m willing to wait for it

[DEAD DWARF PEANUT GALLERY ]
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it

[BILBO]
Nothing is left in my life I can control

[DEAD DWARF PEANUT GALLERY]
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it

[BILBO]
I am disreputable,
I am now a fairy tale

[DEAD DWARF PEANUT GALLERY]
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it

[BILBO]
Always falling behind or there too late

[DEAD DWARF PEANUT GALLERY]
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it

[BILBO]
Now all I have left is to grow old and wait

[DEAD DWARF PEANUT GALLERY]
Wait
Wait
Wait

[BILBO]
Frodo faces an endless uphill climb

[ DEAD DWARF PEANUT GALLERY]
Climb
Climb
Climb

[BILBO]
He has to save us all
He is so very small

[ DEAD DWARF PEANUT GALLERY ]
Small
Small

[BILBO]
The Enemy’s pace is relentless
He wastes no time

[ DEAD DWARF PEANUT GALLERY ]
Time
Time
Time

[BILBO]
Still Frodo answers the call.

The Ring doesn’t hesitate
It exhibits no restraint
It takes and it takes and it takes
And it will exploit any way
It eats you alive from inside
and it gnaws and it breaks
And if there’s a reason
It came to me when none could foresee, then damn it all —

[BILBO/DEAD DWARF PEANUT GALLERY]
I’m willing to wait for it
I’m willing to wait for it…

Life doesn’t discriminate
Between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
And we keep living anyway
We rise and we fall and we break
And we make our mistakes

And if there’s a reason I’m still alive
When so many have died
Then I’m willin’ to—

[BILBO]
Wait for it…

Wait for it…

I had an unexpected free lesson today at work 🙂 soooo I decided to bust out my belting chops (it’s been a little while!). Lyrics by @culturalrebel​, initially posted here, also below the cut.

This is Dis, facing Thorin’s grave, still raw with grief and fury. 

[DIS]

I knew my children like I know my mind…

You could never find Dwarves so devoted and so blind!

I loved my children more than anything in this life!

And I chose their happiness over mine every time!

Put what we had aside!

Damn this Mountain and our pride!

You could never be satisfied!

Thorin, are you satisfied?!

So, culturalrebel submitted this AMAZING Thranduilification of Hamilton’s King George III to determamfidd the other day, as she has been compiling all sorts of delicious and heartrending Hamilton/Hobbit mashups, and OH MY GOD. I know you already posted yourself singing it, Dets, for which I feel slightly like I’m stepping on your toes, but there are not enough words for how much King George is MY JAM. So I had to sing it too >_>

HOLD ME, CULLY

HOLD ME AND JUST SING KING GEORDUIL AT ME FOREVER

@culturalrebel alksjdgflajshdsgalj i think hobbit4ham is a thing now?!?! IT’S A THING? EEEEEE

morvidra:

For the delightful @determamfidd – Happy Birthday Dets, and all the hugs from the great distance of 2 hours away!

Background for this piece of weirdness: This started out with me thinking ‘Hey, I could write a dwarf version of Adam lay y-bounden’, and it was indeed supposed to be a medieval-style composition, but I was driving to work one day singing it and it turned into a twelve-bar blues. *shrugs helplessly*

HOLY SHIIIIIT FEE!!!!!!!

hoooooly oh my good god, thiS IS BRILLIANT, AHHH

Now I can suddenly imagine Durin playing upright bass, and THIS IS A BRILLIANT IMAGE, and ohhhhhhh the lyrics are fantastic, and YOUR VOICE FEE, YOUR FAB CLEAR AND PERFECTLY IN TUNE VOICE! AHHHHHHHHHHH THIS IS GENIUS!

I am going to open a north-facing window and SCREAM VERY LOUDLY 

LISTEN OUT FOR IT
