This isn't supposed to be an episode vid in the strictest sense, though I hope it can be enjoyed in that way if that's what you're looking for.
The goal of the vid was to show what it feels like to be a Firefly fan; to fall in love with this glorious ghost of a show that's long since dead but is never too far away. It's a unique cycle of emotions when you become a fan... the joy, the pain, the anger and frustration at its death, the flickers of hope. But ultimately what defines the Firefly fandom - for me at least - is the unity of the fans, and how we all draw strength from the fact that we all feel or have felt this way about the show. It brings us together, keeps us celebrating what was and what might be again.
That's why Firefly will never really go away, and that's the feeling I was trying to capture in this video. We're all a little bit Mal here.
Lyrics:
Disappearing One - Chris Cornell, Euphoria Morning
What have you done my little spark
Cursing my name cause again I put you out
Falling apart, you tell yourself you are
Dreaming only of the ones who never dream of you
I'm your disappearing one
I vanish when the curtain's drawn
But I will come again and you will let me in
And you'll see I never disappear for long
Into your room I stumble now
Too tired to cower and it's too late to draw you out
And there you lie like a painting of Christ
Bleeding on the hands of the ones who nailed you down
This is my final Firefly vid for the time being. I hope everyone enjoys it, and please share your thoughts.
