Firefly

Title: “The Ballad of Serenity”

Written: Joss Whedon

Performed: Sonny Rhodes

Firefly was a short-lived series on FOX that has had a long-lived reputation. The show was a “space western” and the theme song perfectly captured that concept with this gritty, gruff song from Joss Whedon. Whedon has written a lot of music, specifically for his own projects such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s musical episode and the online iconic Dr. Horrible’s Sing-a-Long Blog. “The Ballad of Serenity” is one more credit for the director.
