How 'bout another Rush tune? "Witch Hunt". Naturally, makes me think of "Safe".

This is a song for all you fans dreaming about a firefly character.

Here is a song for Mal that I figured someone would have mentioned by now, but since no one has....

Desperado

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of heats is always your best bet

Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get

Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no youger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're loosin' all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, before it's too late

-----------------------------------------
“It's a real burn, being right so often.”

Queensryche's "Jet City Woman" made me think of Mal/Inara:

I see her face everywhere, can't get her out of my mind.
Whenever I'm alone I'm thinking, there's a part missing from my life.
Wonder where I'd be without your love holding me together.
Now I'm watching the time tick, tick away.
Face grows longer every day.
Fortunes are lost on the women I've seen, but without you I can't breathe.
You're the air to me!

Heard another song which really reminds me of the show, Santa Maria by Trooper. Here's the lyrics:

With only fear and good judgement
Holding us back
We sailed out on the Northern Sea
With a boat load of crazy people
Including the shotgun and me

Does somebody know how to drive this thing
Yelled the captain as he fell to his knees
I think I mighta had a little too much today
Take me to my cabin, please

Cruisin' on a sardine boat
Loaded with crazy people
And we shall be the Santa Maria
Looking for a brave new world

The first mate shouted from the crow's nest
I think I might see land out there
Nobody moved
From where they were laying
Cause nobody really cared

Does somebody know how to drive this thing
Yelled the captain as he fell to his knees
I think I mighta had a little too much today
Take me to my cabin, please

The first mate shouted from the crow's nest
I think I might see land out there
But nobody moved
From where they were laying
Cause nobody really cared

Cruisin' on a sardine boat
Loaded with crazy people
And we shall be the Santa Maria
Looking for a brave new world

Cruisin' on a sardine boat
Loaded with crazy people
And we shall be the Santa Maria
Looking for a brave new world

Heard this one today, made me think of Saffron:

This ain't the end, I saw you again
Today
I had to turn my heart away
You smiled like the sun
Kisses for everyone
And tales - it never fails
You're lying so low in the weeds
I bet you're gonna ambush me
You'd have me down, down, down, down
On my knees
Wouldn't you, Barracuda?

-- Heart, "Barracuda"

Pardon my late entry into the field, but since it's for Miss Kaythryn, well, I'm obligated to enter some verses.

For River, well, for a brief second in War Stories, she gives me a real Drowning Pool feel. "Let the Bodies Hit the Floor" as it happens.

One, nothing wrong with me.
Two, nothing wrong with me.
Three, nothing wrong with me.
Four, nothing wrong with me.
One, something's got to give.
Two, something's got to give.
Three, something's got to give.
Nooooooooooooooooooooow.

For Inara and Mal, Firewater's She's the Mistake comes to mind.

"She's the mistake I've been dyin' to make, since I can remember..."

Bon Jovi's "Dead or Alive" gives me a Mal feel, along with Warren Zevon's "Renegade", as I mentioned in a thread a while back.

As for Veteran of the Psychic Wars, I always preferred the second verse.

"You ask me why I'm weary, why I can't speak to you. You blame me for my silence, say it's time I changed and grew. Well the war's still going on dear, and there's no end that I know, and I can't stand forever. I can't say if we're ever gonna be free."

For Jayne, there's no other song than Thirteen.

"Bad luck wind been blowin' at my back. I was born to bring trouble to wherever I'm at.

Got the number 13 tattooed on my neck.

When the ink starts to itch, then the black will turn to red.

I was born in the soul of misery, never had me a name. They just gave me the number when I was young.

Got a long line of heartache, I carry it well.

The list of lives I've broken reach from here to hell.

Bad luck wind been blowin' at my back, I pray you don't look at me, I pray I don't look back."

Days of the New, Die Born can be a Mal song, especially in relation to the Alliance. If you like that country/rock hybrid feel, that's one to look for.

I am cold and I don't know why
Said you got to keep me warm
You will run, run from my eyes
They stare you down and make you burn
I am the king, the king of the jungle
I'm the little dog
So the king of the jungle makes me humble

I will not die born
I will not go down
'cause this is not my home
For any fears at all, any fears at all

Keep me running, keep me running wild
Keep me innocent

The sand is hot, it burns my feet
and I'm a little tired,
don't know what I'm gonna do with this
I am gonna run
Make it worth, worth my while
Make it worth, worth my while

I will not die born
And I will not go down
'cause this is not my home
For any fears at all, fears at all

Keep me running, keep me running wild
I am wild dog
Said it gets me high it gets me around
Everybody's walls,
I don't feel no pain
Cause I am numb, numb from the fall

Yeah it's hard for me to make a little change
I don't have to change at all

I will not die born
And I will not go down
'cause this is not my home
For any fears at all, fears at all

Back to River... I was pondering (when I had more spare time on my hands) tinkering with the possibility of mixing music videos from Firefly scenes. So what comes up for River? Joy Division, She's Lost Control Again.

Confusion in her eyes that says it all -
She's lost control
And she's clinging to the nearest passer-by
She's lost control
And she gave away the secrets of her past
And said "I've lost control again."

And she turned to me
and took me by the hand
and said "I've lost control again"
and how I'll never know just why
or understand
She said "I've lost control again"
And she screamed out, kicking on her side
And seized up on the floor -
I thought she'd died
She said "I've lost control again"
She's lost control again -
she's lost control

Well I had to phone her friend
to state her case and say
she's lost control again
And she showed up all the errors
and mistakes
and said "I've lost control again"
But she expressed herself in many
different ways
until she'd control again
And walked upon the edge of no escape
and laughed "I've lost control again"
She's lost control again,
she's lost control (2)

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand. That's what s

Parts of this song are just dead on River

Vertical Horizon- He’s everything you want

Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why

You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say

But you'll just sit tight
And watch it unwind
It's only what you're asking for
And you'll be just fine
With all of your time
It's only what you're waiting for

And this is a perfect song for Mal and Inara

Alicia Keys- Fallin’

I keep on fallin’
In and out of love
With you
Sometimes I love ya
Sometimes u make me blue
Sometimes I feel good
At times I feel used
Lovin you darlin’
Makes me so confused

Oh, oh , I never felt this way
How do you give me so much pleasure
And cause me so much pain
Just when I think
I've taken more than would a fool
I start fallin’ back in love with you

How about Mark Lanegan's Little Sadie for Jayne:

Went out last night, take a little round
Met little Sadie and I blowed her down
Then I run right home and went to bed
With a forty-four smokeless under my head

The 44-smokeless always reminds me of Jayne.
