I am glad that those who adapted Tolkien for the LoTR musical decided not to use the songs from the book. Actually it is not a bad adaptation. Gollum, for example, is really well done and the Balrog is the greatest thing since even unsliced bread

Spiders are beautiful.

Also, that's the way men act. Either that or they bottle everything up and take it out on someone weaker than themselves.

Well, you can have it the old-fashioned way if you like.

Where taking it like a man means "staring stoically into the middle distance throughout the conversation, promptly joining the army to escape your shame and dying in the Crimea".
