the world is weird, things are weird, but we can still cover songs and have fun doing it. But, if you can tolerate this, then your children will be next, so send them the link to watch the video.
Here is the stuff I wrote on YouTube under this video
If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next - Manic Street Preachers - Cosmic Bos Acoustic Cover #5
Andy and Nick take on the mighty Manic Street Preachers song with their acoustical funliness, hopefully pushing the very important message of this song into peoples earholes, we all need to stand up for ourselves, and the more we put up with being treated like scum, the more we tell our children that this is acceptable behaviour.
Power is always with the people, the illusion it isn't is also always with the people. Conspiracies and Governments both push the same agenda, the belief that a collection of slightly evolved primates can run and control everything for over 7 Billion other primates. The quicker we realise that no one is any better then anyone else and we are all just standing at a point in our existence where we can choose to usher in the change we want to see, or we can allow the lunatics to tell us what to do and keep this asylum party going until it literally runs out of fuel and claps out on the side of the road.
So yeah, acoustic covers, that's what you actually came here for, and this one if a personal favourite of Nick and Andy.
So Radiohead are a pretty good band, probably one of our favourites over here at Cosmic Bos, we had the amazing fortune to go and see them live in a forest in Germany when they were touring In Rainbows, it is without a doubt one of the 5 best gigs we've ever been to, and, well, if you've ever seen Radiohead live, then you know what we're talking about.
So Karma Police by Radiohead, we did an acoustic cover of it, and it's here, with an introduction by Theodore Jackson
Such fun indeed, hope you enjoyed that, new one coming very soon
We also have a podcast special interview with ourselves that we did, it's coming this month for sure.
One of the best albums of 2020 was Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers, and in our humble opinion the best track on that awesome album is I Know The End, the closing masterpiece.
Here is Cosmic Bos Acoustic Covers (CB/AC) doing our rendition of I Know The End by Phoebe Bridgers
We hope you enjoyed that, it was a really fun one to do.
We are taking suggestions if you guys have any particular song you would like to hear in our acoustic stylings. We have a few ideas in the pipeline which we will get recorded soon, but any suggestions are greatly welcomed.
Check out our Improv Music and Comedy podcast, unlike anything else in the multiverse
Here's 'Aim' from Episode 17
Also subscribe to our youtube channel and follow us on Spotify for maximum Bos action (if that is what you want in your life, the decision is completely yours and yours alone)
There will be a new episode coming soon (March 2021) called 'Chat with Cosmic Bos', or something like that. We've recorded it, just need to do all the post production shenanigans. Thanks for all your awesomeness, we love you lots and lots.
The sun will continue to be revolved around like it's the centre of the universe
Cosmic Bos Acoustic Covers continues with our second outing, a mash up of Close to Me by Ellie Goulding and Where is My Mind? by Pixies.
This was fun, we will no doubt do many more in the upcoming time of being alive and able to acoustically renderise such audio shenanigans.
Cosmic Bos UPDATE: Firstly, apologies for no new episode on the 1st, we have been going through some things, and the global pandemic is not helping with the advancement of creative pursuits. There will be a new episode of Cosmic Bos Improv-Revisation podcast coming soon, a week or so, it will not be a new improv album, and there will not be a traditional Bos music video, we are in the midst of a restructuring and will resume normal programming as soon as we can. Until then though, we have a couple of special presentation podcasts to tide you over.
Please subscribe to our podcast, it's an ever evolving improvised music experiment that has so far produced some interesting and exciting results.
Nick and Andy have been tinkering around with some cover songs lately, keeps the skills up and reminds them how awesome other writers are, plus just good practice in general for anyone that wants to advance in the field of music.
These chaps want that, the advancing thing, they want it and may I even say, deserve it at this point.
So here is Cosmic Bos Acoustic Covers #1
Live Forever by Oasis
Did you enjoy that?
If so then you may be interested in other things that these fun loving fellas get up to, which is all music based, but also video and podcasting and top secret missions that can not be discussed here in open blogs where anyone (and I mean, anyone!) could be reading...who am I kidding? At this point it is barely being seen by human eyes, a handful at best, the rest of the views are probably robots scanning the text with their cold dead robot eyes looking for clues as to how humanity managed to so royally screw everything up.
So yeah, it's all here in this handy podcast link, you should be able to find everything you are looking for here. https://cosmicbos.libsyn.com
Or here's an embed of Cosmic Bos's most recent video effort 'Aim' ft. Anya Louisa and Ben Bluebird
It's getting a bit cold in here now so I'm going to power down and put myself on charge
Rubber gloves are off, it's knuckling down time, time to business like adults, no more playing in the sand pits of despair, no more swinging on the swing of moods, let's year the hell out of this thing, yeah!
Already we are in the second month of 2021, and it's been pretty much a condensed version of 2020, oh boy, just what we always wanted, more pandemic-ammonium, yum yum, that's a medicine I can happily take without a spoonful of sugar.
It's like we are all waiting for something...
Thanks Anya for acting and singing there, amazing performance. Sorry we kept you waiting so long.

You see, we recorded the album that is Cosmic Bos Improv-Revisation Ep.17: Magic Eye Can Believe In all the way back on the 25th of July 2020, with the 3 Bos boys (Macey, Nick and Andy) and Anya Louisa and Ben Bluebird. It was originally slated to be the penultimate episode of Season 2 (2020), but due to unforeseen circumstances it was pushed back to being the first episode of Season 3. On the very next day (26/7/2020) we recorded another record (Cosmic Bos Improv-Revisation Ep.18: Virtual Normality) with Anya and Ben again. This was originally to be the very last episode of Season 2 (2020) but due to the aforementioned unforeseen circumstances it has now been relocated to the second episode of Season 3 (2021).
Best laid plans and all that, you just never know quite how things will go, so, you know you'll never really know, you know!
Sometimes you don't always get what you Aim for. Take it away Anya
Thanks again Anya, a truly awesome single there, something worth sharing with everyone you ever meet. It is available on all platforms, except train platforms as there is no direct video or musical feature to the rail industry.
If you are in need of a link to the full Anya & Ben episode, find it just below these very words, in embedded player form.
The year is set to continue, I don't think time is going anywhere other than forwards at the same speed it's been travelling for a while now. We here at Cosmic Bos have been running some complex tests, tuning some instruments, tweaking some knobs (completely un-music related activity) and have calibrated our equipment to be able to bring you Cosmic Bos Acoustic Covers (CB/AC), starting off proceedings with a little song called Live Forever by Oasis
