<center>Lord of the Rings Music Mixup Contest</center>

Okay, so this is an idea I got while listening to music at work one night. We all have made graphics from songs, right? You hear a song and go, "Hey, such and such would fit perfectly with this." Well, the idea of this contest is to take that idea and make it just a little bit harder. I provide the song, and you have to make the specified graphic. The catch: the pictures MUST be from Lord of the Rings. Let's get back to our roots, eh?

You may recognize some of the songs from other movies, shows, etc. That's part of the fun. :D You'll have to take your mind off of what it's from and somehow fit it to LotR. Each song I will use will be picked somewhat at random. HOWEVER, I will make sure that I can find an idea from the song to fit. If I can find one, you can too. :P If you have ideas for songs, tell me and they may show up in a round.

THE RULES
[x] You must have at least one line of the song in the graphic.
[x] The graphic must relate in some way to the song.
[x] You must use pictures from LotR, and only LotR. No stock images, though you may use textures/brushes/etc. The pictures do not have to be from the film, feel free to browse LotR art sites and use those too.
[x] Due Date: undetermined

THE GRAPHIC :: Blend

THE SONG:: By My Side - Godspell
Quote:
Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Can you take me with you?
For my hand is cold
And needs warmth
Where are you going?
Far beyond where the horizon lies

Where the horizon lies
And the land sinks into mellow blueness
Oh please, take me with you
Let me skip the road with you
I can dare myself
I can dare myself
I'll put a pebble in my shoe
And watch me walk (watch me walk)
I can walk
I can walk!

I shall call the pebble Dare
I shall call the pebble Dare
We will walk, we will talk together
We will talk
About walking Dare shall be carried
And when we both have had enough
I will take him from my shoe, singing
"Meet your new road!"

Then I'll take your hand
Finally glad
Finally glad
That I am here
By your side (By my side)
By your side (by my side)
By your side (by my side)

Here's my entry:

I associate the song with Sam a LOT, but I might change it because that wasn't the scene I had originally planned to use[just the scene I was making something out of at the time. :P]

That's GORGEOUS. :swoon: Ah, I do too. I've made two things with this song, one at Shelob's Lair with Sam thinking Frodo is dead and one at the Grey Havens. It just really fits with a friendship song.

And honsetly, I thought of Frodo and Sam when I actually read the lyrics rather than just skimmed them.

I'll join! I couldn't resist breaking the Frodo & Sam trend with something very typical for me: A/E. Hey, the lyrics fit. :-P
