Here's Tom with the Weather - A tribute to Bill Hicks by Cosmic Bos (Official Music Video)

 So friends,

Bill Hicks, what a legend. Certainly not to everyones taste for sure, but, he had something important to say. Cosmic Bos made a tribute song for Bill Hicks as part of the album in a month challenge. And here it is... Here's Tom with the Weather

Here's Tom with the Weather by Cosmic Bos

A tribute to the late, great Bill Hicks

Taken from Cosmic Bos Judges Choice Award Winning Album

2 A.M, it's Mission Time

Available now everywhere, but especially on band camp where you can support Cosmic Bos by buying a copy - Buy the album on bandcamp here

This song is part of the album that Cosmic Bos made for the @LightsAndLines Album in a Month competition back in May 2022, they picked up a Judges Choice Award. The song is a tribute to Bill Hicks, using some moments from his life to thread his comedic wit through. He was a talent that was taken from this world too soon, and it is a shame he didn't get the chance to realise some of his bolder ideas, we miss you Bill.

Spaceship Earth - Cosmic Bos New Song - both versions in one blog - part of the Music Weeklies Challenge for #Spaceship

 Hello dear you,

How's it going? Well I hope.

Orange Moon rising over Spaceship Earth

So I (Andy) have been taking part in a fun weekly musical challenge on Twitter, probably should have blogged about it ages ago, but I've been busy and lazy. Plus the blog is more for the work I do with Nick on Cosmic Bos, and that is still flowing. The summer of Bos has a couple more weeks in it, with Episode 5 of our special presentation podcast - Making of an Album coming on the 24th of this month, a video for 'Here's Tom with the Weather' featuring Bill Hicks coming out on the 23rd, and a video for Patient Mystery dropping on the 16th (probably out by the time you read this). It's a busy end to a busy Summer for Cosmic Bos.

You probably didn't click on this blog for the ramblings of a musician, you wanted to hear the Spaceship Earth song that is teased in the title, and most likely you wouldn't have even read the bit above or this bit either and just skipped straight to the goods, and I don't blame you, and if you have been foolish enough to waste time reading this bit then I commend you for your dedication to the written word in this age of image based entertainment. Long live the text!

Spaceship Earth - Music Weeklies Challenge Song #Spaceship

Version 1

This was the first version I recorded on Tiktok, the other version was recorded on Tiktok as well, just in case you were wondering.

Version 2

Version 2 took longer to make because of putting all the lyrics on the screen. 

Check out other things related to the Twitter awesomeness of Music Weeklies Challenges, and I will get round to blogging about it better in the future, I might even go back and blog about the 4 other ones I did over the summer, who knows?

Peace and infinite love
