Share songs that reference The Lord of the Rings

Do you enjoy listening to any songs that reference J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy?

 

If so, feel free to share a link to the song (there’s info here on how to do that), as well as to describe how it relates to this famous high fantasy trilogy.

For instance, the title of the song “Saruman’s Wish” from the London, UK-based stoner metal band Orange Goblin references a character from the trilogy.

I look forward to hearing if anyone else listens to any songs that reference The Lord of the Rings as well, so feel free to share!
