  • New #Musicvideo! #WanderMyFriends, my bittersweet anthem sung in Scottish Gaelic, evolved into the Adama family theme on #BattlestarGalactica. I hoped this #live version would distill all its variations into a definitive, cohesive emotional experience.

    Every time we see skull t-shirt man he has a new instrument and he swaps between them seamlessly. Meanwhile I can barely swap between a fork and a spoon without causing a scene at the table.

    Bear, I doubt you'll ever see this, but jesus christ are you one of the best composers of our age. I just cannot get over the way you fuse so many genres and instruments together into pieces that sound so obvious in retrospect, but no one else seems to be doing. This piece just solidifies for me how great your music is and it makes me want to watch anything you compose for.

    Every time I hear this song; I'm transported to a hill in Ireland. I have never been there, but I know it is real and it exists. Overlooking a town, along the western coast. This hill has a gnarled old tree, that twists towards the edge of the hill. The town is a small sea side town, resting in a valley along the edge of the sea. It's hidden, nestled in wedged between the hills and the coast. The houses of the town are painted white, such a white that almost causes the houses to glow in the sunlight. The roofs are all variations of greens and reds. Every time this song takes me there. To a home I've only known in my heart

    I'm irish, I speak gaelic, and I think the singer doesn't know what he's singing. He can't even say "go deo" correctly! (it's easy, just gotta hear somebody saying "Eire go deo")
    Anyway, i sung that song at my gdad's funerals (with translations for english speakers cause not everybody understands irish in my family, or barely).
    Nobody knew it was from BSG, and I was like "best song for the best series for the best man i've ever met". I wish someone would do the same for me at my funerals, like playing the Colonial Anthem, or sing Wander My Friends, or just have a beer on my grave saying even dead i'm still alive.
    Anyway, great work dude, i bought your album and it's so great !

    ORIGINAL GAELIC LYRICS:
    Siúlaigí a chairde, siúlaidh liom
    Mar cheo an tsléibhe uaine ag
    Imeacht go deo
    D'ainneoin ár dtuirse leanfam an tslí
    Thar chnoic is thar ghleannta
    Go deireadh na scríbi
    Seo libh a chairde is canaidh liom
    Líonaigí'n oíche le greann is le spórt
    Seo sláinte na gcarad atá imithe uainn
    Mar cheo an tsléibhe uaine
    Iad imithe go deo
    ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
    Wander my friends, wander with me
    Like the mist on the green mountain, moving eternally
    Despite our weariness
    We'll follow the road
    Over hill and valleys
    To the end of the journey
    Come on my friends and sing with me
    Fill the night with joy and sport
    Here's a toast to the friends who have gone from us
    Like the mist of the green mountain
    Gone forever
