I’m just gonna link this because I can’t get over this song. It’s SO GOOD.
The lyrics just kill me. And calling the trio of Immortan Joe – The People Eater – The Bullet Farmer “the Cerberus”? Flipping genius and I cannot get over it.

HOLY SHIT THIS IS SO EPIC!!

Treebeard's Song – Christopher Lee

by

R.I.P. Christopher Lee.
We will always remember you and your work. As a tribute, I’m sharing this song he performed with the Tolkien Ensemble, singing as Treebeard.
“In the willow-meads of Tasarinan I walked in the Spring.
Ah ! the sight and the smell of the Spring in Nan-tasarion !
And I said that was good.
I wandered in Summer in the elm-woods of Ossiriand.
Ah ! the light and the music in the Summer by the Seven Rivers of Ossir !
And I thought that was best.
To the beeches of Neldoreth I came in the Autumn.
Ah ! the gold and the red and the sighing of leaves in the Autumn in Taur-na-neldor!
It was more than my desire.
To the pine-trees upon the highland of Dorthonion I climbed in the Winter.
Ah ! the wind and the whiteness and the black branches of Winter upon Orod-na-Thön !
My voice went up and sang in the sky.
And now all those lands lie under the wave,
And I walk in Ambaróna, in Tauremorna, in Aldalómë,
In my own land, in the country of Fangorn,
Where the roots are long,
And the years lie thicker than the leaves
In Tauremornalómë.“
~ J.R.R. Tolkien

No One Does It Better (than the Birds of Prey) – Batman: The Brave and the Bold

No One Does It Better (than the Birds of Prey)

good evening all you gentlemen
mobsters, creeps, and crooks
men in tights come after you
and still you’re off the hook
for those who scare and terrorize
it’s the dawn of a brand new day;
you scum can simply call us
the one and only birds of prey

Crossroad Blues – Robert Johnson

“Crossroad Blues,” by Robert Johnson
The Blackout made me wonder if there were any songs by black filkers I could feature – unfortunately, I don’t know any, but somehow this seemed like the next best thing.
A note to the Supernatural fans: this song and “Hellhound On My Trail” were the inspiration for the entire selling-your-soul-at-a-crossroads plotline(s), and I thought you should know.

Sansa's Hymn

by


irrelevant-pumpkin:

 In Game of Thrones, Sansa sings a beautiful song in season two. I have found an awesome version made by Letomi :

 ” It’s a hymn from the sept that she first sings before a great battle is fought and she sings it again later to the Hound […] before he vanishes. I wanted to put melody to the song and also capture both occurances within the same song. “

The Rains of Castamere – Game of Thrones

The Rains of Castamere (A Song Of Ice And Fire/Game of Thrones)
Posting this is much easier than trying to explain what “Filk” is to people
I mean, as soon as I hear they were making a show of ASOIAF I was like, “OMG There going to be so much filk they’ll have to write”
It’s impossible to explain what Filk is to people who don’t read fantasy.
The Rains of Castamere was (in the books) a song commissioned by Tywin Lannister to commemorate the utter annihilation of some family that rose up against house Lannister a few decades before the events in ASOIAF. So basically, in order for it to be in the show they have to hire musicians to make it a real song.
BONUS: Bronn singing The Rains of Castmere Before The Battle of Blackwater

The Hanging Tree (Mockingjay) - acapella cover by Paola Bennet  ★

I’ve been asked and meaning to cover this for a while — in my head I heard it with such a Southern Gothic vibe that I just took it there. Really is best with headphones for the harmonies. Listen, share, come to the tree. xo
