What is filk? Filk is the folk music of the Science Fiction and Fantasy community. Songs are not restricted to any specific genre or style. The songs are a mixture of both original music and parodies. Think "Weird Al" Yankovic with a much larger library. For more definitions of filk see the filk faq at -
