    That was gorgeous.
    Oh, the falcon was a pretty bird
    Wandered as she flew
    She danced around and pranced around
    Wherever the warm winds blew
    And the falcon was a pretty bird
    Her voice was always still
    But men with drums and men with guns
    They taught her how to kill
    Her eye was on the sparrow
    Her mind was on the dove
    But no one cared and no one dared
    To speak to her of love
    Her eyes are always hooded
    Her claws are sharp as steel
    We teach her not to see too much
    We teach her not to feel
    Go build you a log cabin
    On a mountain so high
    And hear the feathered war-bird's yell
    As she goes screaming by
    She'll tease you
    She'll please you
    She'll satisfy your needs
    But someday she might turn around
    And maul the hand that feeds
    Your hours might be numbered
    Your end might come someday
    Go break her chain and free her brain
    And send her on her way
    And the falcon is a pretty bird
    Wonders as she flies
    She asks us easy questions
    We tell her easy lies

    Cosmo should seriously bring in his brother Merlin in for his music, you both have beautiful voices and I seriously think Merlin is underrated.

    • @OakleyANDSittingBull
      @OakleyANDSittingBull 6 років тому +15

      @*JessDoritoWhale*,
      Hear! HEAR!!! :)
      Absolutely!
      From a professional music and film perspective, Merlin also adds an advanced dimension of attractively stylish physical aesthetic with his apparent confident yet humble demeanour, personal fashion sense via his colour and design selections and combinations, and cute yet handsome dimples (please also screen their incomplete, experimental short film 'Merlin Drop'). All mentioned are *completely unnecessary additions* as Cosmo is very cute, commands enthralling attention and is *terrifically, impressively brilliant, all 'round,* however, Merlin's physical aesthetic and relaxed confidence *would be* an appreciated addition for the more sensual (or superficial) audience members when performing live or via video or film. :)
      Also, touring can become gruelling and is at times lonely. Invaluably, they seem to be very fond, loving and trusting of each other. It seems Merlin is very busy with his academic and literary work and therefore perhaps he hasn't much interest in pursuing a professional music career on a grander scale (which, if so, is *completely understandable ;)* ).
      ...Please know this lengthy point was derived and delivered ONLY from a business perspective, in the case Cosmo may be interested in any and all ideas relating to *his skillfully and creatively earned, impending, vast commercial success.* xox

      I think the brothers are both playing the sticks like the old bluegrass spoons, but are tapping on different beats in order to make the more intricate military style drumming. I'm not sure though, and would love some explanation, lol. Brilliant performance though.
