Welcome, one and all, to the Sorting Hat Song thread!

With the tragic events of the past few months, we must raise spirits with the greatest magic of all: Music.

Professor Dumbledore was always aware of its power and our new acting headmistress, Professor Anelli, feels the same.

But I have been quite busy recently and need a new song to be written for the Sorting Ceremony.

But we need a change. I refuse to divide people this year. No matter what house I put them in, they will be united under the name of Hogwarts and your song must stress this importance. In this dark times we must stand together or fall under these dark powers.

But still we must have fun! So this will be a contest. You have until 3pm (EST) to post your songs below. Then this thread will close and a poll will be opened at 4pm (EST again), for you to vote on your favorite!

Hopefully I will announce the winner before we arrive at Hogwarts!

So let’s fight this Dark Magic with music!

To the tune of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" (or hippogriffs, if you prefer):

Ah, here we are at school once more
Our learning to commence
There's Snape and Sprout and Dumbledore
And Hagrid, who's immense
But before you may all tuck in
I'd like to offer sense:
To place you into your proper house, your proper house
To place you into your proper house!

Four friends once ran our Hogwarts dear
A long long time ago
Harmony reigned, they were sincere,
To teach and learn and grow
But since they knew their time was brief
Their smarts to me did go
To sort you when you place me on your head, on your head!
To sort you when you place me on your head!

In Gryffindor, go brave and bold,
In Slytherin, the sly
In Ravenclaw, the brains take hold,
In Hufflepuff, we cry:
Take all the rest, in fairness --
Their schooling we'll supply
And that's how I choose each student's house, each student's house
And that's how I choose each students house!
