We're huge fans of the show Firefly. It's a shame it only got one season. Hope you enjoy our cover of the theme song! Please comment/subscribe.

**For those of you who noticed, yes I did botch one of the lines by saying "all the sea" instead of "boil the sea". I got into a weird mental fart where I kept singing the line wrong every 5 or so takes and unfortunately, after countless retakes until I was satisfied with the recording, the one I settled on happened to be one with that mess up. Sorry guys! Just mental exhaustion

Easily the best cover I've heard of this song. It's nothing short of perfect. Flawless job by both of you.,

The pitch of your voice fits the theme. I can imagine you sitting with a guitar, on the wing of a Firefly, somewhere on some desolate rock, playing this song, accompanied by your violin playing companion, leaning on the outer hull.
