| | Amazon.com: Books: Bilbo's Last Song |
 | | The song is illustrated throughout with scenes from both "Lord" and "the Hobbit." Fans of Tolkien's tales will recognize many familiar scenes and characters: the doorway to Bilbo's home, the wizard Gandalf, the tragic Gollum, the dragon Smaug, and more. | | | The text is a poem/song attributed to Bilbo Baggins, a character from Tolkien's fantasy epic "The Lord of the Rings" and its companion volume, "The Hobbit." The song itself is a tender, wistful message of farewell. | | | This is Bilbo's song as he arrives at the Grey Havens at the finale of "Lord of the Rings," at the Elven ships that will sail for the Undying Lands. |

| | Leonard Nimoy sings about Bilbo Baggins |
| | If you haven't seen this vintage 1960's video of Leonard Nimoy, fresh from the set of Star Trek singing this catchy lollypop song about Bilbo, Bilbo Baggins, the bravest little hobbit of them all... | | | You will find it irrisistable to sing this song over and over again in your head... | | | And since I think it's just so damn funny, I've decided to upload it to my server. |

| | HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILBO BAGGINS - Bilbo's Birthday Song |
| | While reading J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, I was inspired by the Bilbo and Frodo's huge birthday party to write a song, "Happy Birthday, Dear Hobbit and Friend." As it came together I realized that the song works just as well for anyone who loves the magic of Professor Tolkien's books. | | | Bilbo Baggins' Birthday Party Shocks All of Hobbiton | | | I am reporting to you live from the scene of what has to have been the most spectacular Birthday Party in the history of Hobbiton. |

Bilbo, a US governor (and later senator) outspoken for his white supremacist views. | | | The liner notes to this cover album indicate that this song was actually composed by Bob and Adrienne Claireborn in 1946 (a year before the death of white supremacist US senator Theodore G. Bilbo). | | | Andrew Tibbs also wrote a song about senator Bilbo. |

| | In 1968, Leonard Nimoy released a record, "The Two Sides of Leonard Nimoy," which contained the song " The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins." In the BBC's 1981 radio serialization of The Lord of the Rings, Bilbo is played by John Le Mesurier. | | | This led to an adventure which takes Bilbo and his companions through Mirkwood, to Rivendell, eventually reaching Erebor, Here, after the mountain has been reclaimed by Thorin Oakenshield, the Battle of Five Armies takes place. | | | In Peter Jackson 's film The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) Bilbo is played by Ian Holm, who played Frodo Baggins in the radio series 20 years earlier. |

| | Encyclopedia of Arda: Calacirian |
| | The much more common form of this name is 'Calacirya', and in fact the particular form Calacirian only ever occurs in Bilbo's Song of Eärendil. | | | The Elven city of Tirion stood between the walls of the pass, and Eärendil came there on his famous journey into the West, as told in Bilbo's song quoted above. | | | Throughout The Silmarillion, and even elsewhere in The Lord of the Rings, 'Calacirya' is the preferred form, suggesting that the modification to 'Calacirian' is purely for Bilbo's poetic purposes. |

The song itself is a tender, wistful message of farewell. | | | The poem, in which Bilbo talks about leaving Middle Earth and bidding farewell to his life and friends there, is a vehicle for Baynes to immerse herself in the characters and events in this trilogy. | | | by Pauline Baynes, "a must for all fans of Tolkien's vast, epic fantasy." The poem, purportedly written by Bilbo Baggins (hero of The Hobbit) just before he takes ship from Middle-earth to the Undying Lands at the end of The Lord of the Rings, gives rise to Bayne's medieval-flavored paintings. |

| | Music in Middle-Earth |
| | Exceptions are the music of the Dwarves in Bilbo's house in The Hobbit (which may be a pre-LOR carelessness) and perhaps the music in Rivendell, especially the "Song of Earendil," though it may be an example of standard Germanic chant. | | | The evolution of poetry and song in the Middle Ages was away from unrhymed rhythmical alliterative songs toward the metrical rhymed lines of modern poetry and music. | | | Concerning musical instruments in Middle-earth, the Dwarves play "little fiddles," "flutes," "clarinets," "viols," "drums," and a "harp." In "Frodo's Song at Bree," a cat plays a "fiddle." "Durin's Song" mentions "harps" and "trumpets." In the Middle Ages, the harp was a basic instrument that was strummed between lines in Germanic lays. |

My friend Justin in Portland found the album at a thrift store or something, I've heard part of it. |

| | [minstrels] The Man in the Moon Came Down Too Soon -- J. R. R. Tolkien |
| | Then in desperation he began a ridiculous song that Bilbo had been rather fond of (and indeed rather proud of, for he had made up the words himself). | | | His preface is all that is needed, and it, and the poem (or song) itself sufficiently show the genius of its invention: At the inn called the Prancing Pony in Bree, Frodo, as a visitor from the Shire, is asked to sing a song the guests haven't heard before. | | | The Man in the Moon took another mug, and then rolled beneath his chair; And there he dozed and dreamed of ale, Till in the sky the stars were pale, and dawn was in the air. |

| | And Now, For the Rest of the Poem |
| | "Errantry", in fact, is the only poem Tolkien ever wrote which was published at least four times (five if you count Bilbo's song in Rivendell, as that work is identified by Christopher Tolkien and others as a derivative of "Errantry"). | | | The silly mariner who marries a butterfly and challenges Elven knights has demonstrated a literary and poetic strength that few other characters of song and poem from the twentieth century revealed. | | | But "Errantry" is so powerful, and "Lay of Leithian" so compelling, that they were destined for a greatness which, if the critics of the twentieth century had known of them in the 1930s, would have humbled the mightiest of opinions. |
