Okay, many of you probalby know that Leonard Nimoy once recorded a song - "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins".

What you might not know is that there was a music video, available online.

I'm more surprised that people didn't know about this than the reactions...

Hmm.

You would think that Wierd Al Yankovic would put out a parody song about The Lord of the Rings movie.

Or maybe do a remake of the ballad.
