Original YTMND:

Worthy Spinoffs:
Used Music:
  • Juno Reactor vs. Don Davis - Navras

The "Summon" fad usually involves a picture of someone "summoning" a fire spirit into existence. The fire spirit often appears between the person's hands. The original was "Al Gore Summons a Fire Spirit!!!!!" by Phange and did not feature The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers film trailer score now associated with the "summoning" YTMNDs. The fad truly took off two months later, with the creation of "Kerry Summons a Fire Spirit" by paphan, which for the first time utilized the trailer music (a re-orchestrated version of the musical theme from the film Requiem for a Dream) in the "summoning" context. Incidentally, The Two Towers trailer music later resurfaced as "Requiem for a Tower".

Music Choices

The Two Towers trailer theme wasn't the only popular choice of music for the fad. Many other tracks were used, the most popular including:

"Navras" - Juno Reactor vs. Don Davis

"Roll Tide" - Hans Zimmer

"Escape" - Craig Armstrong

All four tracks were included on the YTMND Soundtrack. "Requiem for a Tower" and "Navras" were included on Volume 5. "Roll Tide" is on Volume 3 and "Escape" on Volume 2.
