Of the many awesome things about Firefly, the music often gets underappreciated. Here (http://www.bedlambards.com/Browncoats.html) is a band I found when looking around for a soundtrack of the series; they kick ass. My recommendation is to ignore the singing, buy their album and throw out all except the instrumental tracks.

I'm particularly fascinated by the song for Mal's and Saffron's wedding. It's got a sorrowful, celtic tone that might go better with funerals than weddings. I might have to learn to play the bagpipe in order to see what it sounds like played on the bagpipe. . .

The opening theme is the greatest TV show theme ever.

I almost want to contest that and say that Nerf Herders Buffy theme was better, but they're both so great I can't really do that.

But yeah, you're right IQ, as much as I love Firefly I don't think I've ever really appreciated the music in it. I should really go and listen to it again.

I'm a sucker for good Violin use in a song, so I have to agree with Masked.
