The best version of this song, IMO. The timing of the “We’ll never make it / We made it” bit is impeccable, and the “Yeah, the Fellowship!” line is delivered so perfectly by both of them. ❤️
1:29 - 2:03 has to be my favorite part of the song, especially the part where he says "Ah, Gandalf, my old friend. I like what you've done with your beard." Also the part about how they only have 8 people fighting everyone and suceed. I love this song!
Hell yes my two favorite things goofy great music and Tolkien. Great job gentlemen you have given everyone a gift with your awsomness and for that I thank you.
+Erellia Who is he is LOTR? Edit: I should have just looked it up, it turns out that eh plays a FIGWIT Elf named Linder. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figwit#/media/File:Figwit.PNG He has a very feminine and pretty face when he's shaven..
as of _The LEGO Batman Movie_ (2017), both Brett and Jermaine have played _Lord of the Rings_ characters. Brett was in Fellowship and Return of the King, where he played "Elf Escort" (or "Figwit"), and a different elf named Lindir in the Hobbit movies. Jermaine played the Eye of Sauron in LEGO Batman

It sticks with you, doesn't it?
"There are thousands of them, and only eight of us. We'll never make it."
"Oh no!"
...
"We made it."
"Hurray!"
Genius!
Thanks I didn't realize that was the lyrics until you mentioned it
Ring I'm Gonna Leave you - Flight of the Zeppelins
Ramble on frodo
I feel like Jermaine could have a long career as a cartoon voice actor.
billygowhoop He's actually played in alot of cartoons if you didn't know.
yep
He has a great part in Moana.
His favourite part IMO is when he sings the moonmen song in Rick & Morty.
isn't he the big white bird in Rio?
when they do their songs live, it's always better than on the show
Cant get over how genius this is
"I'm all right. I was saved by a giant eagle!"
Love this song.
so this is the greatest song in the world
wrong guitar playing comedy duo there mate
+GingerBagels tribute is actually a tribute to this song
tribute to which song, may i ask?
That would be a tribute to the greatest song in the world there, bud.
hoptop77 I have to agree with you
"...I'm all right. I was saved by a giant eagle"
It gets me every time....
Rapping: "Frodo don't wear the ring. The magical bling bling." Forgot how great this song was.
"There's thousands of them and only about eight of us; we'll never make it!"
"Oh no..."
"We made it."
"Oh, horray!"
Best part of the whole thing!

I love their dry absurdism.
Really, the best version of this song imo
I think the recorded version had a better rock part, but I prefer the extra lyrics in this one (TROLLS, ELVES, HUMAN BEINGS)
All their best performances were on ABC 2, an Australian TV network.
Is this the New Zealand national anthem?
I wish.
If not, it should be.
It is, I just asked them.
the magical bling bling~
I swear Jemaine looks like the long lost love child of Mick Jagger and Jim Morrison.
Mick Jagger with the attitude the of terminator
This song is way better like this, live, than as a studio version!
This has more power and is more fun
Hell yes my two favorite things goofy great music and Tolkien. Great job gentlemen you have given everyone a gift with your awsomness and for that I thank you.
"I'm alright, I was saved by a giant eagle."
That line pops into my head at the strangest times!
XD
This is definitely my favourite song from them! So much win.
This is such a 2011 comment.
we'll never make it! oh no! ... we made it! LOL
The little 'Oh, hooray!' made it for me XD
Oh so you saw the video too
I really like the part where they invent rap mid-song.
THIS NEVER GETS OLD
The guitar riff sounds a little like don't fear the reaper
+timothy meissgeier May be it is intentional? Don't wear a ring, don't fear a reaper.
+tangorangry the ring, the reaper*
it sounds like babe, im gonna leave you by led Zeppelin
It’s actually closer to “hit the road jack”
This was from 'Standup!', a standup comedy show in Australia, this is all they did on this episode, so this is pretty much the 'whole vid' :)
I think I prefer this version over the recorded version. They’re both good for different reasons, this one just made me laugh a bit more :)
"They didn't use it, it was really hurtful"
I guess you could say they had... hurt feelings.
This is definetely one of my favourites!
"Don't rap about jizz 'n hoes, i rap about witches n' trolls"
best line ever!
need a FOTC tattoo next to my LOTR one after this.
perfect!
I know I'm a little late, but it's "bitches and hoes", not jizz..
It's about bitches and hoes not jizz'n hoes, lol.
They are so freaking adorable!
~
This is funny because Bret is in the Hobbit movies. We've come a long way.
+Hope Moskal he's in Lord of the Rings too.
+Erellia Who is he is LOTR?
Edit: I should have just looked it up, it turns out that eh plays a FIGWIT Elf named Linder. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figwit#/media/File:Figwit.PNG
He has a very feminine and pretty face when he's shaven..
+Geoffrey Zoref holy crap that picture blew my mind lol
You just made my night! Thank you ^_^
Even better, Jemaine does the voice of Sauron in the New Lego Batman movie..... the joke just keeps going. :D
the magical bling bling lol
It genuinely sounds pretty dope when Jermaine says the fellowship at 2:13.
Ah, Gandalf my old friend, I like what you've done with your beard.

Nice bit of harmony there... great job
Gotta luv the good sense of humour ^^
Frodo, don't wear the ring... the magical bling bling xD
The magical bling bling!!!!!!
Best comedy show that you never heard of. I wish that there were more than 2 seasons of their HBO show...that was the funniest shit ever.
I don't know how I stumbled across this but it's f*cking great XD
I love the fact that Bret and his Dad were both involved with the Lord of the Rings Trilogy.
Oh Hurray!
Does anyone else hear Zeppelin's "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" when they listen to this?
Awesome song!
he's been in them all!
Jemaine is So awsome here!!
they feel a little bit.. awesome!!
Awesomeness 😂👏👏👏🙏💚🌟
If you look closely in the first one, he's sitting next to Aragorn at the Council of Elrond when they first get to Rivendel.
Ah, Gandalf, my old friend. I like what you have done with your beard... Brilliant!!!
