I sorta got this Idea from another site, but I like it.

Are there any songs (besides LOTR songs) that remind you of a character, or the story itself? that you want to dedicate to a character?Songs that reach out to you on a different level? There are at least 10 that remind me of LOTR, but my favorite reminds me of (of course) Frodo and how he feels about whats happening, and how he feels about sam too, and leaving bad end.

If you've heard Goodbye to You by Michelle Branch, you might understand me. Its a new song of hers but If you think about it, it fits perfectly for Frodo (and sam). Some of the lines are:

Of all the things I believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days that pass me by

(Chorus)
Goodbye to You
goodbye to everything that I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing I tried to hold on to

makes me sad everytime...mecry

In the chorus, its kind of talking about Frodo and Sam relationship and how they had to leave each other, the rest is like Frodo feeling absolutely helpless on his journey...its quite touching to me
Are there any songs that you can anylize and compare to LOTR? If you do, be my guest and show me... I love this sorta thing

Fans of The Corrs may have their best of album. On it (and another album...but anyway) is a track called 'Love to love you'. It really make me think of either Aragorn and Arwen's troubles...or the thing going on between Legolas and Gwenevere (is that her name) in a more famous fan fic that's on many sites... I'm planning to make a video for it with my mates! :)
