Really?
Tolkien was voted the most important work of fiction of the 20th century by the people who rate those things. More or less popularized the genre - up until Piers Anthony's A spell for Chameleon.

There are several series I would put way ahead of "A song.."

Anyways sundry other
Erewhon
We all died at breakaway station
John Carter, War Lord of Mars.

Of course, the lovecrafts Cthulus books...
