* The Rankin-Bass animated version of ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'' - ''The Return of the King'' features a song, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdXQJS3Yv0Y "Where there's a Whip There's a Way"], sung by ''orcs''. While this is one of the coolest song titles EVAR, it's still just plain wrong. It's arguably the stand-out number, although it's hard to compete with Glenn Yarborough singing Sam and Frodo to sleep on Mount Doom or with a number where Sam fantasizes about how if he had the Ring he would use its powers to turn the orcs and baddies into regular critters like raccoons and porcupines.<ref> (loosely based on a scene from the book!)</ref>
