  1. At least I got 7/10! But alas, my LOTR knowledge is a tad rusty. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to reread all the books now. ;D

    1. Evangeline, you could also just listen to all the songs on YouTube a lot. Or, you know, do that while re-reading the books.

      Not that I've ever done that. ::hums an innocent tune::

  2. Good job everyone! I could probably have figured the 5th one out, but it's been to long since I've seen the movies, so I didn't want to risk it. :)

    Fun game, Hamlette!!

  3. I so enjoyed this game especially because I love all the songs to these and know them by heart.

    ...except Gollum's Song, obviously.

    Fun game and overall fun week, Hamlette! By next year's Tolkien week, I will have read the books. :D
