  • Happy Rhodes, January 29, 2005 (1st show), at the Tin Angel in Philadelphia, PA, performing a cover of Annie Lennox's song "Into The West" from "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King". As a huge Lord of the Rings fan (books and movies) this song meant a lot to Happy.
    This is the only time Happy performed this song.
    Featuring Bon Lozaga on guitar and Hansford Rowe on bass. Drummer Bob Muller was kept at home due to a burst pipes emergency (she tells the story at the start of "The Chosen One").

    Happy - I have always been so moved by your music! I LOVE this cover of "Into The West" Please, please, record this for your next album! I would love to hear a studio mixed version with your voice up front and center where it belongs.
    Love you!

    This song always, without fail, makes my cry profusely. I sung this to my boy cat as he died in my arms at 11.

    Happy has never recorded this song - as far as we know, this was a one-time event. She just decided to cover it at this particular show. There is an MP3 available at the Happy Rhodes Rarities site at wretchawry dot com

    That's her style. Happy has an honest-to-God four octave range, and she's not afraid to use it.

    I said Tonight Show before I went back and watched it. That version was actually pretty good, while the one on the Oscar telecast was pretty dire.

    I don't believe there are any tabs written out. Happy is a self-taught guitarist, and every time I've seen her play, it's been from memory. She might eventually produce tabs of some of her own songs, but this was a one-time event, and I'm sure she'd have to watch this video to try to work out what she played.

    Happy was a little flat on a couple of notes. But this was the first, and as far as I know only. time she has performed this song - live and with minimal rehearsal. I love Annie's soundtrack version too, but compare this version to Annie's live performance on the Tonight Show. The song (which Annie did not write) is in a very difficult key.

    This was the first, and as far as I know only, time she did this song. I'm sure if she did it again, she could get it perfect.
