Beatles songs for Middle-Earth characters?

[Timebender]

So, a couple movies that I have viewed recently are The Two Towers and Yellow Submarine. The other night I had a sudden vision of Gollum sitting all by himself in his cave while the Beatles sang "Nowhere Man". It certainly fits, in my opinion.

So my question to you all is, what other Beatles songs are fitting for characters from LOTR or inhabitants of Middle-Earth?

I think their pre-squeeky-clean stuff would suit the dwarves.

 

[Alex The G and T]

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds-- Galadriel?

Maxwell's Silver Hammer --- Gimli?

 

[Alex The G and T]

Hey Jude--- Gandalf

Bungalo Bill -- Pippin

Rocky Racoon --- Merry.

 

[Alex The G and T]

Fool on the Hill -- Tom Bombadil.

You never give me your money - Lobelia Sackville-Baggins

Get back - Thorin Oakenshield

You're gonna lose that girl. - Glaurung, singing to Turin

Slightly off-topic, but I watched the film, Yesterday, the other week. It was surprisingly enjoyable, but from an SFF POV, I was a bit sceptical that they didn't even attempt to explain how the main character ended up in a parallel universe in which The Beatles didn't exist.

Not a song but surely the album for Gandalf has to be The White Album

A few more suggestions.

Bombadil could certainly also sing Mother Nature's Son
Illuvatar might have a go at Across the Universe
While Frodo was in Mordor he might sing Carry that weight.
The long and winding road is obviously for Strider
Money seems to be Smaug's song
And of course
With a little help from my friends could be sung together by the nine walkers.

Another one for the fellowship might be All Together Now
Dig A Pony - Barliman Butterbur

I thought Bilbo might get away with Paperback writer.

 

[paranoid marvin]

I would say the lyrics to "Nowhere Man" fit Tom Bombadil.

"Yesterday" for Sar after the battle of Helm's Deep.

 

[Alex The G and T]

The Magical Mystery Tour seems to sum up the whole thing, in a nutshell.

 

[Timebender]

Hey Jude--- Gandalf

Bungalo Bill -- Pippin

Rocky Racoon --- Merry.

I get the other two, but why Hey Jude?

 

[Timebender]

You never give me your money - Lobelia Sackville-Baggins

Get back - Thorin Oakenshield

You're gonna lose that girl. - Glaurung, singing to Turin

YES YES YES.

 

[Timebender]

I would say the lyrics to "Nowhere Man" fit Tom Bombadil.

"Yesterday" for Sar after the battle of Helm's Deep.

Fair enough.

 

[Alex The G and T]

I get the other two, but why Hey Jude?

"Take a sad 'song' and make it better" ?

Okay, it was late and I was groping.
