We played it on ep 21 of S4 of The Signal recently and if you think the solo version was good, you 'aint heard nothing yet!
(The original version of Mals Song appeared in ep 7 I think of Season 1 of The Signal back in 2005)
This also appears on the *free* Firefilk Album, Songs From The Black available here:
http://signal.serenityfirefly.com/shownotes.php?e=2240
This includes links to hi res versions of all 18 songs and CD artwork which works really well and is worth the bother of making up a hard copy. Use photographic paper and it looks great.
We originally released this as the Christmas bonus episode at the end of Season 2 of The Signal in 2006.
We try to include some Firefly related music in every show. This has on occassion included previously unreleased stuff by Firefly composer Greg Edmondson and by Serenity composer David Newman who both kindly gave us permission.
And yes, plans are afoot for a SFTB II at some point.
There is a large amount of great Firefly filk music (hence Firefilk) out there. Check out the Firefilk Yahoo group for example.
Plus you may get a different sounding surprise by listening to the Signal's feed in the next week or so :-)

What say you, fellow Browncoats, am I right?
I like Buffy better than Firefly, but that's just me.
Cole23, I think you have plenty of Whedon greatness ahead of you. Enjoy.

It is fun to watch it again with someone who has not seen it. I always tell friends that they will like it if they see it alone, but they will LOVE it if they see it with me.

It's not often I register for this sort of thing; in fact I never have but I had a bad experience today. The wife and I had been watching this amazing DVD called Firefly, totally brilliant. The storeys, the characters, the humour is the best I have seen for decades, and it's American (the wit is very 'sarcastic' and cleaver which is possibly why it did not appeal to mass America!). But I could not believe my wife when she told me that 'this is it'. They made 11 out of 14 shows then binned it. I was mortified. It was like Lorenzo's Oil. Finding the best series on telly since....well ever only to find out it had been scrapped. It actually made me quite angry. The hours and hours of mindless drivel that comes out of the US and this genius, this class, this sheer pleasure in entertainment is scrapped; unbelievable!
And with so many un-answered questions. What did happen to the bounty hunter, what was the Sheppard’s secret, what did they do to the young girl etc etc etc.
With six years down the line now I doubt it will ever be resurrected but what a complete travesty. If I were Obama the first thing I would be doing is making 2009 a better year for everybody by getting series one finished and series two done and out. So all you Americans, campaign your senators (or whoever) to put pressure on your new president. There is not much he can do to make 2009 better but seeing that the brilliance of Firefly becomes a phoenix is one thing he can do.
Tonight I will have no Firefly to watch; my life is empty and cold on Christmas Eve. Not right.

I wore my Boston CSTS t-shirt to work the the other day.
To my surprise I found out that two of my co-workers are fans. When they saw the words Can't Stop The Serenity, they asked me if that meant Firefly/Serenity.
We had quite a nice conversation about various episodes over lunch.

It is sad when you finish the episodes. You didn't mention the movie. Thanks to Joss Whedon's persistant with help from the fans, there was a movie, Serenity, that came out in 2005. It helps to answer some questions about "the young girl," River. It would be a GREAT Christmas present. There have been some comics that have come out, and there is more to come. The next one is suppose to give us Shepherd Book's back story. We are constantly hoping for more.
