Fire In The Sky

Steve Jackson's Daily Illuminator alerts us to a pretty cool video to Kristoph Klover's recording of Jordin Kare's "Fire In The Sky".

That person has also done "Witnesses Waltz", "To Touch the Stars", and "Hope Eyrie".

His lyrics are "To Touch the Stars" are... a little off.

And, I just found he also did "The Word of God".

Well, he's in Vietnam and had to transcribe it by ear. ;-)

I think he plans to update it with the actual lyrics (I just gave him a copy of the lyrics, and am actually sending over an electronic copy of everything we've published that he wants as a thank-you for making such lovely videos)

[ladysmith.livejournal.com]

Ah. Cool. Thanks for the update.

Tom - Did you notice that he did about 1/3rd of the 'To Touch the Stars' CD from Prometheus???

Eli (Prometheus Music) has been trying to get in touch with him to send him MORE music, if anyone has gotten a response from emailing that person.

Hey, awesome! One of my favorite filk songs...though I'd never heard the Challenger verse before (I only know the version from "St. Elmo's Fire).

Thanks for pointing the way...has anyone done a vid to "Shooting Star"? That'd be a hell of a companion piece.

Great, now I'm sitting here with tears rolling down my face. Damn, I miss going to launches.

[janetmiles.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Although I've never yet seen a launch in person.

That video never gets old!

This person has done up quite a few filk videos using tracks from "To Touch the Stars." They're pretty amazing.

That was great--How do we reach a wider audience with this sort of thig?

I'm sure there's quite a bit of filk lurking on Youtube.
