		The target of this controversial "dance on your grave" song is rather Theodore G. Bilbo, a US governor (and later senator) outspoken for his white supremacist views.
		The liner notes to this cover album indicate that this song was actually composed by Bob and Adrienne Claireborn in 1946 (a year before the death of white supremacist US senator Theodore G. Bilbo).
		Andrew Tibbs also wrote a song about senator Bilbo.

		It's pretty awful, but the craziest song on it is "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins."
		Not only do you get to hear the song, you get to watch the video too: The video for "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins" (QuickTime).
		Back in the late '60s, Leonard Nimoy—riding high on his Star Trek fame, I'm sure—released an album of music called "The Two Sides of Leonard Nimoy." My friend Justin in Portland found the album at a thrift store or something, I've heard part of it.

		The text is a poem/song attributed to Bilbo Baggins, a character from Tolkien's fantasy epic "The Lord of the Rings" and its companion volume, "The Hobbit." The song itself is a tender, wistful message of farewell.
		This is Bilbo's song as he arrives at the Grey Havens at the finale of "Lord of the Rings," at the Elven ships that will sail for the Undying Lands.
		The song is illustrated throughout with scenes from both "Lord" and "the Hobbit." Fans of Tolkien's tales will recognize many familiar scenes and characters: the doorway to Bilbo's home, the wizard Gandalf, the tragic Gollum, the dragon Smaug, and more.

	HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILBO BAGGINS - Bilbo's Birthday Song
		While reading J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, I was inspired by the Bilbo and Frodo's huge birthday party to write a song, "Happy Birthday, Dear Hobbit and Friend." As it came together I realized that the song works just as well for anyone who loves the magic of Professor Tolkien's books.

		As Senator Theodore Bilbo explained in his 1947 treatise Take Your Choice: Separation or Mongrelization, it would be better to
		Bilbo, Theodore G. Take Your Choice: Separation or Mongrelization.
		The hidden menace of black blood, and not necessarily skin colour, was the main substance of segregation; theories of mongrelization and intense fears of miscegenation both produced and emerged out of it.

		For the name Baggins, Tolkien intended to recall the word "bag." The associated name Bag End was meant to imply "cul-de-sac." This was the local name of Tolkien's aunt's farm in Worcestershire, which was located at the end of a lane that led no further.
		Baggins may also be a reference to bagging, a term used in northern England for eating between meals.

	Encyclopedia of Arda: Calacirian
		The much more common form of this name is 'Calacirya', and in fact the particular form Calacirian only ever occurs in Bilbo's Song of Eärendil.
		The Elven city of Tirion stood between the walls of the pass, and Eärendil came there on his famous journey into the West, as told in Bilbo's song quoted above.
		Throughout The Silmarillion, and even elsewhere in The Lord of the Rings, 'Calacirya' is the preferred form, suggesting that the modification to 'Calacirian' is purely for Bilbo's poetic purposes.

	Amazon.com: Bilbo's Last Song: Books: J.R.R. Tolkien,Pauline Baynes
		The text is a poem/song attributed to Bilbo Baggins, a character from Tolkien's fantasy epic "The Lord of the Rings" and its companion volume, "The Hobbit." The song itself is a tender, wistful message of farewell.
		by Pauline Baynes, "a must for all fans of Tolkien's vast, epic fantasy." The poem, purportedly written by Bilbo Baggins (hero of The Hobbit) just before he takes ship from Middle-earth to the Undying Lands at the end of The Lord of the Rings, gives rise to Bayne's medieval-flavored paintings.
		The poem, in which Bilbo talks about leaving Middle Earth and bidding farewell to his life and friends there, is a vehicle for Baynes to immerse herself in the characters and events in this trilogy.

	Music in Middle-Earth
		Exceptions are the music of the Dwarves in Bilbo's house in The Hobbit (which may be a pre-LOR carelessness) and perhaps the music in Rivendell, especially the "Song of Earendil," though it may be an example of standard Germanic chant.
		Concerning musical instruments in Middle-earth, the Dwarves play "little fiddles," "flutes," "clarinets," "viols," "drums," and a "harp." In "Frodo's Song at Bree," a cat plays a "fiddle." "Durin's Song" mentions "harps" and "trumpets." In the Middle Ages, the harp was a basic instrument that was strummed between lines in Germanic lays.
		The evolution of poetry and song in the Middle Ages was away from unrhymed rhythmical alliterative songs toward the metrical rhymed lines of modern poetry and music.

		Bilbo’s Last Song is a poem written by Bilbo, hero adventurer of The Hobbit, before he leaves Middle Earth to take a ship to the Undying Lands beyond the sunset, at the end of The Lord of the Rings.
		The song is both a longing to set forth on his ultimate journey and a tender farewell to friends left behind.
		The second part of the book that was Tolkien's first conception of the Middle Kingdom features the tales of Beren and Luthien, Turin and the Dragon, the Necklace of the Dwarves, and the Fall of Gondolin.

	[minstrels] The Man in the Moon Came Down Too Soon -- J. R. R. Tolkien
		Then in desperation he began a ridiculous song that Bilbo had been rather fond of (and indeed rather proud of, for he had made up the words himself).
		His preface is all that is needed, and it, and the poem (or song) itself sufficiently show the genius of its invention: At the inn called the Prancing Pony in Bree, Frodo, as a visitor from the Shire, is asked to sing a song the guests haven't heard before.
		There is an inn, a merry old inn beneath an old grey hill, And there they brew a beer so brown That the Man in the Moon himself came down one night to drink his fill.

		He was a Baggins, by nature a more inquisitive and thoughtful sort than the rowdy Brandybucks, and in that Hall, filled with merriment and song, Frodo had learned to keep his griefs and worries hidden deep within himself.
		Even when Frodo came to live with Bilbo at Bag End he remained an outsider, raised by the outlandish Brandybucks and given to the strange ways of his cousin Bilbo.
		When they drowned, Frodo was taken in by the Brandybuck clan.

	And Now, For the Rest of the Poem
		"Errantry", in fact, is the only poem Tolkien ever wrote which was published at least four times (five if you count Bilbo's song in Rivendell, as that work is identified by Christopher Tolkien and others as a derivative of "Errantry").
		The silly mariner who marries a butterfly and challenges Elven knights has demonstrated a literary and poetic strength that few other characters of song and poem from the twentieth century revealed.
		But "Errantry" is so powerful, and "Lay of Leithian" so compelling, that they were destined for a greatness which, if the critics of the twentieth century had known of them in the 1930s, would have humbled the mightiest of opinions.

	Misty Mountain Hop by Led Zeppelin Songfacts
		The Misty Mountains were the next step in the journey, so as the song finishes with "so I'm packing my bags for the Misty Mountains...", it might refer to how, after having been rested and refreshed with the elves, Bilbo and company head out to the Mountains with happier hearts and higher hopes.
		Misty Mountains is where Bilbo and the Dwarves Fight Smauge the Dragon.
		The Misty Mountains are located west of the Lonely Mountain, where the dragon Smaug lay.
