translation We gadriaþ in nihtscuan (We gather in shadow,) Neoðan þin gledstede, (Beneath your altar,) þin liċfæst in blode ond lieġe. (Your image in blood and flame.) Nu þin ġebann, æþreddaþ us (By your command, deliver us) To þæm anliċum æltæwan gastcyninge (Unto the One True God) Gaius Baltar, ure dryhtweorþ nergend (Gaius Baltar, our divine savior) Nu ond æfre to alder. (Now and for eternity.) Swa we ġehwilc ġehalsiaþ. (So say we all. )

Why don't we just enjoy the music? Baltar is an interesting FICTIONAL character. Not evil, but not a good person. Bear McCreary, meanwhile, is a genius composer!

So Say We All!

On the subject of Gaius Baltar, he, of his own free will, gave up a life as the head of a cult full of diverse and very sexy kinds of women willing to do whatever he wanted for him to go save a little girl who was kidnapped to be diced up into little pieces and studied. How bad of a guy can he really be?

My favorite song out of the entire BSG soundtrack - period.

Whenever I meet someone who says they didn't like Baltar, all I have to do is reply right back with, "Dude fucked a table."

@Voyksed No your kinda right he plays Christ in a Bible quizzing movie for the book of John.

James Callis is a great great actor. Can you imagine the various characteristics of Gaius Baltar he had to do, with real and 'imaginary' people too? I once read that he even tried an 'Adama impersonation' during a take in 'Pegasus' when Edward Olmos wasn't around for the take and he perform it so good everyone cant help not to start laughing

@masteraj57 Actually calling Tigh a human character is quite paradox. But I agree to you! ;)

[enriquefeto]

@Unclesamslair Exactly! it reaches a whole new level of amazing!

[Unclesamslair]

I love the last part starting at 3:48 when it really starts to rock!

eerie and beautiful

Baltar and Tigh were the most human characters of the series. If I were God I would forgive them both of their sins.
