All this has happened will continue to happen unless I stop hitting the replay button.

Everybody's looking at Tina and listening to Raya. Meanwhile Big Boy Paul Cartwright on the Electric Violin is snatching people's souls with that sound.

10 years later and I still CANT HAVE ENOUGH of SO SAY WE ALL!

[Moose]

Now consider that when Bear McCreary became the primary composer on BSG he was 25 years old. That's crazy. I love his driving percussion-heavy soundtrack for BSG.

[QuarterSooner]

Tina Guo on the cello there. She's responsible for that epic cello you hear when Wonder Woman pops up from behind her shield in Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice. Shivers every damn time.

[DavisSchulz]

best original series soundtrack ever!! i love it!

[mattanubis]

Holy fuck! 10 years later I'm still impressed.

See you guys in ten more years. Definitely.

[jamesmartin]

Not enough is said for Raya Yarborough's voice in this. Sublime and yet powerful. Ancient and yet modern.

[johncrichton]

Christ this was 13 years ago? Still amazing how much BSG embraced Bear's amazing music and eventually made it a literal plot point.

[bandsmom]

Moved to tears everytime I hear this full song. Hits me right in the center of my chest and radiates throughout.

[nakedcomputing]

The look on Tina Guo's face when she starts her solo is beastly.

[LAJ-FC]

I love how everybody playing this just rocks out to it at the start.

2020:
As we're all headed towards the apocalypse anyway, thank you Bear for giving it a kick-ass theme song...

[paulwright]

13 yrs and counting :D still fantastic music so say we all

[themosh]

This show was some of the best TV ever, regardless of genre.

[laughinghyena]

...I've never wanted to be an electric cello so bad in me whole life!!!

[lompact]

There is absolutely nothing, that a dislike about this performance. Except, that I didn't experience it first hand.

[glenn_r_frank_author]

The Re-imagined BSG was EPIC! My favorite Sci-fi series of all time. The music, the story, the characters were superb.

[miguelangelfuentes]

Stay your whole life with the one who treats you by the same way as Tina Guo plays her cello

[KEIN_]

This is still such an impressive performance.
