This is the first video we ever put together, folks! Didn't even know how to make the picture fill up the whole screen, i guess! lol. Still love Firefly. =)
I've watched dozens and dozens of "Firefly" fan vids. This one is my favorite, and I can't seem to stop coming back to it. Music, editing, timing, scene selection... gorram shiny job.
Someone once said "just because a story isn't real or true doesn't mean it isn't worth telling." Firefly was not only worth telling, but it had a truth to it that needed to be told.
I was out having lunch the other day and this song came over their music system. I couldn't help but smile, tap my feet, and sing along. I instantly thought of your awesome video tribute. I will forever after associate this song with Firefly and your video. Thank you so much for making and sharing it. It brings tears to my eyes every time I see it.
I've just seen Firefly for the first time. Thank you for this beautiful tribute. It captures my favorite parts without even showing them directly. The "I got soul, but I'm not a soldier" clips were perfect.
Hey everyone. It's amazing to see such nice comments still coming in for our video. Since this video, we created a new channel and are now actually appearing on the tv show Movie Mob as Film Badgers. Well, we never did get a chance to create another tribute video for either Serenity or maybe a different movie or show, but we still hope to one day. Anyway, glad to see such nice comments. Been a while since we watched this ourselves and damn, it does get to ya doesn't it? Miss the show! Take care.
I see allot of appreciation for Firefly in these comments but remember to compliment the video itself! Firefly = my favorite series ever (and i only just watched it a month ago) and this video was put together phenomenally. my favorite part is the "I got soul but im not a soldier" where it shows the whole cast!
Amazing my fellow Browncoat! Just amazing. I have seen the entire series all over again and the Serenity movie of course. Must have seen the Serenity ending a thousand times. That is what it all is about - love. Amazing cast and amazaing Joss-effect. Best show and movie of all time! Thank you very much for this! You can never stop the signal!
This is hands down the best Firefly vid ever!!!! I absolutely loved every moment of this. Thanks so much for making it and sharing it. Wow, so good, well done.
Firefly - Best TV series to ever be aired... God why oh why.... how could something so great come to an end so early! Movie was not as good as it could have been but it brought firefly back to life and touched my hear like the TV series did.... Cry baby cry...
This is the second Firefly tribute I've seen to this music bed, and both were so great. Wonderful job. Great hero shots in the interlude. A fitting tribute to such a great show.
This was a beautiful show (still is, in a sense), and this tribute definitely captured one of the things that made it so great. I especially love the quotes you put in at the beginning and end, and the "I've got soul, but I'm not a soldier" run in the vid was perfect. Thanks for sharing with us, and good luck to you in the future!
It helps that I love this song and I love this show, but the clips during the 'I got soul, but I'm not a soldier' segment... it gave me chills. Wonderfully done video!
I loved the groupings of clips that were similar. Shooting, falling, hugging - they looked great together. Also loved the clips you chose for all the "got soul but not a soldier" bits. Great job!
It's a great song with all the best parts of Firefly involved. Great job in the editing and the timing. I liked how you started it off from the "flashbacks" and worked your way forward. The opening titles are a saying of mine now.
This really is the best vid, I mean you time everything so well all the parts where you have them falling and the music is "bring yourself down" and its timed like perfect. And then my favorite part is when the song goes "got soul, but I'm not a soldier" and you have a clip of everyone and its just sooo perfect. Anyways 5/5 obviously, great vid.
This is a gorgeous music video. It fits so well with the song. Thank you for this wonderful tribute to the amazing firefly. Fox can't take the sky from us. Fox can't take firefly from us.
Malcolm Reynolds is the Captain Kirk of Firefly's generation. Remember the line from "The Search for Spock"? "My God, Bones, what have I done?" "What you had to do, what you always do: turned death into a chance for life". Isn't that what Mal struggles to do every episode? The best combination of steampunk, working-class, blue-collar heroism, and even some T.E.A. Party-ism.
Brilliant! Loved this. I just discovered this a few weeks ago and I'm so disappointed to find a handful (but awesome) episodes and a kicks ass movie. I really hope they at least make a Serenity sequel.
I don't think it was random, exactly. I liked the way the video moves thematically according to the lyrics, rather than trying to tell a story. Lovely job, guys. They can't stop the signal!
Just noticed this: for "I got soul but I'm not a soldier," each crewmember has a stoic shot ("soul") and an emotional/undignified one ("not a soldier")... except for Zoe, whose stoic shot lasts through the whole line, because she /is/ a soldier. Brilliant.
@Hewkll The show isn't -about- uber space battles. It's about a very human group of people surviving in a harsh future. It's a brilliant show in its own right, but very different from something like, say, Battlestar Galactica.
One of the most amazing browncoat vids I've ever seen. It just suits perfectly Serenity's crew... Thank you so much for this awesome video. Just keep sharing and touching us! You have all the thumbs up in the world! :)
i love how it started! "it was the losing side. Not sure it was the wrong one." this is a must see for any firefly fan. I am making one to "smooth criminal" to all the episodes of Firefly and to the movie. 5/5 good job!!
If I were waring a hat, I would tip it to you. I cant hear this song now without think of this video. And as others have posted, I have yet to see a fan vid so well put together to even try comparing to this one.
I know I already commented but I just had to complement you again. I keep coming back and watching this video over and over. Such an incredible testament to Firefly. This is the best tribute video I've ever seen. Would you ever consider doing another one? Maybe incorporating the movie Serenity this time? That would be shiny :)
Wow, that was amazing! Hard to believe it's your first vid. Firefly vids can get stale and boring using the same clips in the same way. But you made it feel fresh and new, and captured the spark, the same spark of Firefly we fell in love with. Only thing I could say about the editing is be careful with the ends where clips butt together. There was a few times you catch a glimpse of another scene or camera change. That's just me being overly nit picky. Overall it was awesome!
Been a long time since I saw this video last. Still think about it from time to time.
Holds a special place in my heart.
It's been years.
And I still come back to see this sometimes :)
thanks
Same here bud
I'm so glad RUclips randomly suggested this to me. It's wonderful.
7 years in from finding this, always my go to firefly video when i get in that mood :)
This is the first video we ever put together, folks! Didn't even know how to make the picture fill up the whole screen, i guess! lol. Still love Firefly. =)
16 years later and I am watching this with tears in my eyes.
This may be one of my favorite fan music videos; just fits so well. Makes me watch want to watch Firefly each time.
Babe- What an honor it was to create this with you! It turned out exactly how I pictured it would. Love it! And I love you =) CWFT8!!!
Hey, it's my two favorite things, Firefly and the Killers
I can say, I'll die a happy man now that I've seen this.
Seen this tribute video at least 50 times. It's now 2024 and I'm still giving it a look-see. Still one of my favorite shows of all time.

So many great moments. So many great memories. I think I'm going to spend the day watching my box set again!
Quite possibly the greatest video I have ever seen on RUclips :)
Thank-you for this!
Man. Every single time I watch this, it makes me want to rewatch the series - and it goes without saying, it makes me want more, too!

Movie was not as good as it could have been but it brought firefly back to life and touched my hear like the TV series did....
Cry baby cry...
Wow. This was excellent. It gave me shivers! Excellent job.
They really need to bring Firefly and it's amazingness back.
This is the best Firefly video I've ever seen. I love it so much. Very well done. For the Browncoats!
Perfect song, with the perfect clips! Can't ask for any better. A shiny piece of editing. Thanks!
Awesome job--love the song and I still love the show to this very day.
Wow. Just.... wow. This was amazingly done. Amazing song for an amazing show.
I freakin' LOVE this video. I think I've seen it about 100 times, and I always come back when I need something to make me smile.
I keep coming back to watch this from time to time. Still great!
This is the second Firefly tribute I've seen to this music bed, and both were so great. Wonderful job. Great hero shots in the interlude. A fitting tribute to such a great show.
this video gives me shivers every time i watch it. it's perfect. Firefly forever.
this is one of my favorite firefly videos
What a great video, captured so many memorable moments of Firefly. A shiny choice of song too! I'm embedding it on MySpace. Bring back Firefly!
This was a beautiful show (still is, in a sense), and this tribute definitely captured one of the things that made it so great. I especially love the quotes you put in at the beginning and end, and the "I've got soul, but I'm not a soldier" run in the vid was perfect. Thanks for sharing with us, and good luck to you in the future!
Still flying!
favorite firefly tribute,so far.if you like this show ,you know how these lyrics fit not just mal but the whole gorram crew!
Back to watch this again. Love this video.
This video is simply amazing...totally hit home. Browncoats everywhere need to see this...inspiration for sure. Hold the line!
It helps that I love this song and I love this show, but the clips during the 'I got soul, but I'm not a soldier' segment... it gave me chills. Wonderfully done video!
That. Was. Beautiful.
Inspiring. Wonderful.
Speechless here.
Very nice, more please?
This fits with Firefly so well you'd think it was written for it. Excellent video.
Browncoats Forever.
This is by far the best video for Firefly I've ever seen.
I loved the groupings of clips that were similar. Shooting, falling, hugging - they looked great together. Also loved the clips you chose for all the "got soul but not a soldier" bits. Great job!
I had a shiver down my spine when The Alliance came down on Serenity Vally at the start. GREAT VID!!
love how the war is the backdrop for the music video. just a great flat out flantastic job!
It's a great song with all the best parts of Firefly involved. Great job in the editing and the timing. I liked how you started it off from the "flashbacks" and worked your way forward. The opening titles are a saying of mine now.
This is the best Firefly video I've ever seen. I'm amazed.
Best Firefly tribute I've ever seen! Thank you for putting the effort into putting this together.
I agree with ballsopt... Epic.
This is one of the most beautiful things i've ever seen. Despite the violence, the sentiment is overwhelming.
Excellent work, great job with selecting scenes and music, also the transitions... its perfect. really does the show justice
This really is the best vid, I mean you time everything so well all the parts where you have them falling and the music is "bring yourself down" and its timed like perfect. And then my favorite part is when the song goes "got soul, but I'm not a soldier" and you have a clip of everyone and its just sooo perfect.
Anyways 5/5 obviously, great vid.
That there was damn impressive. Worth my time watchin it , no question. Thanks for sharing!
Lovely! Great editing, such a wonderful summary of the show as a whole.

Shiny!Great song, great choice of clips. Makes me realise how much I miss Firefly.
Absolutely, positively, and completely beautiful.

This is an incredible video. The song is so perfect for the series, and the editing was real quality work.
Great song. Terrific video. Best show ever.
Oh my god I forgot this existed then I heard the song on my iPod earlier and was like, OH YEAH. Still a great video. Gives me the feels.
This needs an HD update.
+Jack Daone this Version is more romantic. :D Good old time
Oh it still hurts when I watch this. Love the ending with Inara waving and Serenity flying away...I didn't want to leave these characters!
Wow. I get choked up every time I see this. Awesome show. Kick-ass fan vid. Thanks cnstrikesback!
This is awesome! Captivating beginning, and the rest is also beautiful.
This is a gorgeous music video. It fits so well with the song. Thank you for this wonderful tribute to the amazing firefly.

This video makes me sad. This show was riveting and I'm going to miss it terribly.

Oh my god, a MILLION LIKES NOW!!!
Love this vid. It literally made me bounce in my seat. Holy hello.
Wow. It's awesome.
It's mighty mighty!
If this was your first I'd say you're off to a *fine* start. This was a great video great pacing and great selection of shots.
I'm...
I'm not crying.
I swear.
*sniff*
That was so beautiful.
Amazing Plain and simple

Amazing work. I loved this video till last second!
This is awesome, well done! I applaud you!
One of the most amazing browncoat vids I've ever seen. It just suits perfectly Serenity's crew... Thank you so much for this awesome video. Just keep sharing and touching us! You have all the thumbs up in the world! :)
i like how the video didn't favor one crew member over another, but showed them all equally.
This is one of my favourite vids of all time. Shiny. Browncoats rule!
All kinds of awesome. Great job!
This is absolutely amazing. You should make more!!!
i love how it started!
"it was the losing side. Not sure it was the wrong one."
this is a must see for any firefly fan. I am making one to "smooth criminal" to all the episodes of Firefly and to the movie.
5/5 good job!!
damn good job, love this song and the firefly series! wish it lasted longer.
That made me cry a little..
I love it!
Awesome job...I enjoyed it immensely.
