Bump it up!

I'm working on putting together a CD (probably more) of songs like these and I gotta thank everyone for their ideas! Here's a few a picked up that I haven't seen on here yet:

"Don't Fence Me In" A bunch of different people have done this, but it's sooo Mal.

Also, I found this song "Saint Simon" by The Shins, seems to fit.

Pink Floyd's "Vera" is just too funny to think about Jayne and his gun.

Finally, Myspace artist 76 has done a few Firefly remixes and songs, pretty cool stuff.

I heard a song on the radio yesterday that reminded me of who plays Inara. "Morena Feeling" by Boston.

Songs that remind me of Firefly:

1) "Civil War Lament" by Jack Frost -- Short, sad and sweet. No frills and beautiful.

Great, my wife is mocking me with quotes from The Venture Brothers

2) That theme song, you know, from Serenity--my wife's suggestion. Whore. Ah, she corrects me, make that companion. She probably means the show theme, anyway

3) "Gallows-Pole" by Led Zeppelin. Kind of obvious, I guess.

4) And for no reason that I can really give, "She-Spider" by Mew. One of my favorite songs --and was before I ever got the Firefly, um, bug.

One song that is often overlooked is Pink Floyd's "Goodbye Blue Sky" from the Wall. I read in the RPG about how the Alliance bombed the planet Shadow, Mal's home, so badly that it remains uninhabitable to this day, and the lyrics and the guitar melody are just so beautiful i can help but think of the terror of those who were planetside:

Did you see the frightened ones?
Did you hear the falling bombs?
Did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter
With the promise of a brave new world unveiled benieth the blue blue sky.
Did you see the frightened ones?
Did you hear the falling bombs?
The flames are all long gone but the pain lingeres on.
Goodbye blue sky, goodbye blue sky.
Goodbye, goodbye.

No, I am not insane, I am crazy. Thank you for asking.

Pink Floyd
The Final Cut
A Requiem for the Post War Dream
by Roger Waters

The whole album reminds me of Firefly, as it explores personal post-war struggle. The specifics are different, but the feeling and essence are in line. It touches me in the same way Mal's struggle does.

Just wanted to say thanks to you all for posting all these shiny songs. I went and downloaded all of them that I could find and they've been really nice to listen to tonight. A nice feel good mix of stuff especially since it makes me think of our favorite BDS and BDH :) It's helped me cheer up a bit too, was kinda in a sad melancholy mood tonight and the music helped. So thanks guys.

Stay Shiny,
Aubrey

Heart Of Gold, Neil Young. Perhaps Mal's already possessed of such a heart, but it appears to me that that he just keeps on searchin', even as he survives each moment to work at surviving the next moment.

I think that Malcolm Reynolds could identify with the tune. With more than a little resentment toward the "Hollywood" part, eh?

"She's Got a Way" by Billy Joel.

I saw a fan vid about the author's favourite character from Firefly and it was Serenity. Really good fan vid. Also made me realise that Billy Joel isn't just about uptown girls.

Why have they taken the sky from ME
