Smile I have actually managed, at long last, to track down Tolkien references for many of the Zappa lyrics cited, but as the material in question is of a decidedly ribald nature, my proposed analysis  would have been even more salacious (love that word!Geek), and perhaps unsuited to a public forum ostensibly dedicated to the dissemination of (drumroll please) "capital P capital R" Progressive Rock.Wink

So:

Give me something less overtly sexual to work with, would you guys? This thread was fun -- at least for me! Cry Waah!

(There's just not enough silliness here lately, you know. Maybe I need to return to my shining empire on the Island of Abandoned Progholes!) Stern Smile

OK then, don't play! Labour on in ignorance of the Tolkien-inspired foundation of all rock lyrics!Angry

SmileAll righty then: Without cheating via the web, where do the Genesis song titles "Unquiet Slumbers for the Sleepers..." & "In That Quiet Earth" come fromQuestion

(I mean the original source, of course, not the album!)

 A movie question: Where did the title of the Robin Williams film "What Dreams May Come" originate?

No web-cheating, SVP!

"Unquiet Slumbers for the Sleepers" and "In That Quiet Earth" are both from Wuthering Heights

Although I did cheat a bit, as my S/O has a degree in English from Oxford, and I have a copy of "The Peguin Book of Quotations"...

Am I right in thinking "what dreams may come" follows soon after Hamlet's line "to sleep, perchance to dream..."??

Righty-o, Jam-a-lam-a-ding-dong, you clever lad! Here's your gold star to show yer mum:Star

"To sleep -- perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub! / For in that sleep of death what dreams may come / when we have shuffled off this mortal coil, / must give us pause."

In that section alone of the Dane's famous soliloquy  we find a movie title, a Wishbone Ash album title, and a band name!

And there are those who wonder why we should still read the old Bard of Avon! Angry

Not to mention several phrases which have dropped into common useage.........

"to shuffle off this mortal coil"

"there's the rub"

".....give us pause"

The bard has been dropped from the syllabus of many schools here, in favour of modern prose, due to "archaic language" being of no use in modern society!
