I was driving through northern New Mexico about 12 years ago when I heard a cover of "Papito" by Manu Chao on the radio. That it was a cover of this song is all I was able to determine. It was in a completely different style from the original. It was sung by a woman who sounded almost exactly like the character Milla Vodello from Psychonauts.

I've had no luck tracking this down.

When I was a little kid my parents hung in my room, right over my bed, a poster. It was a map of Middle Earth, IIRC, lacquered onto a piece of plywood. It had an illustration of Smaug on it which terrified 4 or 5 year old me. It may have had other characters on it, and the predominant color on it was either white, off white, or some sort of aged paper yellow, but I can't be sure of the exact original color.

This would have been produced no later than 1982 or so, but was probably from the 60s or 70s.

Anyone know where I might find this image?

My mom had a set of LOTR with this image broken into 3 for the book covers. The creepy little duders DID freak me out mildly as a kid! It's sort of like a map (progression through different areas of ME)

But yeah, this leads us to...

None of those are it.

It was definitely The Hobbit centered and MAY have been Rankin Bass Hobbit. Smaug was prominently and distinctly featured, but didn't dominate the whole thing.
