Now presenting... my very first Firefly vid!

Title: Prospero's Speech
By: Sarah K. Roberts
Song: By Loreena McKennitt
Size: 5.59 MB
Category: Episode vid -- "Out of Gas", Drama
Motivation: It's the best episode of Firefly ever, in my opinion at least... Need I another reason than that?!
Spoilers: "Out of Gas"

[ X ]

It's an episode vid, so obviously, there are significant spoilers! It's mostly centered on Mal, but all the characters are in there. You may need tissues for this vid, so keep them handy, just in case. ;)

Feedback is always appreciated!!

Since Shakespeare isn't really mainstream lyrics material, in my opinion, here are the lyrics if you'd like to follow along. :)

Prospero's Speech

And now my charms are all o'erthrown
And what strength I have's mine own
Which is most faint; now t'is true
I must be here confined by you

But release me from my bands
With the help of your good hands
Gentle breath of yours my sails
Must fill, or else my project fails,
Which was to please. Which was to please. Now I want
Spirits to enforce, art to enchant
And my ending is despair,
Unless I be relieved by prayer

Which pierces so that it assaults
Mercy itself and frees all faults
As you from crimes would pardon'd be
Let your indulgence set me free.

Heh, stupid me simply clicked the first link without reading the text and then wondered why the vid a) featured Stargate scenes and b) why you would call that kind of song a "chant" ;)

But, great vid! The slow motion really works great with the Loreena McKennitt song :) Love her music!

You don't do Babylon 5 vids, do you? *g*

This video is really great. And I think this is the first time that I really loved the song you used for it at first listening. And thanks a lot for posting the lyrics, too. I read before watching the vid and it really helped me to appreciate the scenes you used with them. Usually I look up the lyrics after first watching the vid.

*huggles you and Mal*
