First there was a book. Then they made a movie. Next they made a remix of the move. And finally somebody makes a concert version of the remix. Somebody please write a book about this performance, so this can go full circle!
I think the fact they are actually playing instruments and they look the part to cover the song helps. If it were just some random dudes with t-shirts and the song playing back on some speakers it would have been weird. Mad, MAD props to Dread Crew of Oddwood, indeed!

Dread Crew of Oddwood! They play at my local ren faire. They are always excellent, I even bought their album. The best thing is that they have groupie wenches.

most of the time the algorithm is dumb.. but sometimes... every once in a blue moon... it brings us all together with a magical little moment like this. beautiful.

Is it just coincidence that I went to a 30th with some mates dressed up as pirates setup in a bay played some music and at some point in the night played a similar song to this just bit more electronic 😮

the guy on the left does an amazing smeagol
its gollum tho... sorry mate
Smeagol and Gollum are the same person, Gollum is just the name he adopted after the ring twisted him.

I was simply stating that they're the same person, not two different people.

The World does need a HD version of this
the HD version had been taken to isengard
Who Is Me ? Stupid Saruman hoarding music all for himself
One does not simply demand HD versions.
We wants it, we needs it. Must have the HD version. They stole it from us. Sneaky little hobbitses. Wicked, tricksy, false!
The HD version of this song is too great to be in this cursed and forgotten land

I have spent many a hour on the TH-cam and am overjoyed to at last have found what I knew not that I was seeking all along.

They're being taken to Mexico.

ok thanks im so grateful that somebody was so pleasant to answer

***** Eating orc tacos ;D
Watch lord of the rings, then watch they’re taking the hobbits to Isengard in youtube
Geez, I don't know what's more awesome, that one guy headbanging or the other guy's spot-on Smeagol impression. Bravo, gents!

Many years after the original meme, I finally encounter this random homage. This song is still remembered to this day. Thanks.
When band is twice bigger than the audience and they are having twice as much fun.
Just got this in my feed (April 2024). How have I not seen this before? BRILLIANT!
So where are they taking the hobbits to again?
probably not isengard
