| − | 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 "{{ytmnd|goresummon|Al Gore Summons a Fire Spirit!!!!!}}" by Phange and did not feature ''[[w:The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (film)|The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers]]'' film trailer score now associated with the "summoning" YTMNDs, but instead featured a remix of the Zero Wing theme heard in the [[All Your Base]] flash animation.

| |
| − | 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 ''[[w:Requiem for a Dream|Requiem for a Dream]]'') in the "summoning" context. Incidentally, ''The Two Towers'' trailer music later resurfaced as "Requiem for a Tower".

| |
| − | Sites didn't really take much effort, as the only thing modified in most of these images was the addition of a red "fire spirit". Some sites had different spirits being summoned, mainly as a joke. Early sites picked on many politicians since the original one was John Kerry. Later on, animated sites became popular including "Conan...SUMMONS A FIRE SPIRIT". The fad would die down in early 2005, but not until bringing in a major slew of fad music that would be used in the years to come.
