We added a little bonus feature to the end of this show too, as we are evolving this idea and watching it take shape. We were asked by The Word Alchemist to do an instrumental version of one of Nick's older songs, which we did, and then it seemed only natural to add the vocal and before we knew it we had a fully finished song. So, we launch this new feature into the Monthly Music Challenge by in which, if the inspiration from the hashtag of the month isn't grabbing you, you can raid your musical archive and spruce up, rework or simply redo something from your songbook, we are calling this section  FromTheSongbook songs And Cosmic Bos are going first with this, so here's the first entry to the Songbook section of the MMC 25. Heart Holder - Cosmic Bos Heart Holder was originally recorded by Cosmic Bos as part of a special presentation in Season 2 of our podcast, and it's a totally banger, with Nick taking the lead vocal and the guitars pumping it all up. It was fun doing a proper recording of it, and as is the usual Bos way, we will see where this feature goes, we have plenty of songs in our own songbooks which may appear here... Thanks for listening, please like, share and subscribe, and leave us a review on your podcasting platform of choice (it helps spread the word and build our musical community) https://linktr.ee/cosmicbos Also here is the direct podcast homepage https://cosmicbos.libsyn.com  Also YouTube does us quite well, and the full podcast is available there too, so here's that link MMC with Cosmic Bos on YouTube Coming Up Next Month is Monthly Music Challenge 1.3 - Ignorance Peace and infinite love Cosmic Bos

Hello friends, So the Monthly Music Challenge is well on it's way now, into the second hashtag (#Escape if you weren't aware), and the challenge is coming to a close for the music makers of the Music Weeklies, there has been some excellent submissions to the MMC from that bunch (looking at you Trench Gun), and all you other music makers that need a bit more time, you still have until the 3rd March to submit your songs to the podcast. As for this song, the one that is this little bitesize podcast, Nick and I (Andy) worked out some guitar at the weekend, I then recorded a musical outline (using just 3 guitars), put some drum loops in, wrote the lyric, sung the lyric, released the video to the music weeklies world.  The song is about being ready to escape when things go bad, and getting out together, not leaving anyone behind. For all the crazy in the world, it's not a problem if we can make good our escape. Please like, share and subscribe And send your Escape songs to us before the 3rd of March 2023.

Hello, Welcome to this quick little podcast containing Cosmic Bos's entry to the #industrial music challenge presented by Music Weeklies. We Worked Hard for You by Cosmic Bos This is my (Andy's) song about industrial action, going on strike, standing up for workers rights. #Industrial marks the final hashtag for January and you can submit tracks made under this banner up until the 3rd Feb. Next week will be Monthly Music Challenge 1.1 New Beginnings, and you can still submit your songs made around that banner until the 3rd Feb too (as well as Pixels and Geisha). Please like, share and subscribe, and tell all your musical friends to listen and take part. Peace and infinite love Cosmic Bos https://linktr.ee/cosmicbos

The third hashtag for 2023 is #Geisha You can now submit Geisha inspired songs to the Monthly Music Challenge for possible inclusion in the first proper episode of MMC Submissions for MMC 1.1 New Beginnings open until the 3rd Feb 2023, so get a move on music makers. This song is Cosmic Bos' submission to the Geisha challenge, not our usual style for sure, we went with a remix angle rather then an imitation one, not sure we could learn the intricacies of traditional Japanese music in a few days, so instead we added beats and bass, modern it up a bit.  Check the video out on our youtube YouTube Video Link Also check out our link tree for all your Cosmic Bos musical needs https://linktr.ee/cosmicbos 

Hello friends, As Cosmic Bos are now running the Monthly Music Challenge, we are a little light on music videos to pepper up our podcast feed. So we will be adding our hashtag songs for the other weeks of the Music Weeklies challenge into our podcast feed, to use the bandwidth.  This first month of the Monthly Music Challenge is focused on the hashtag New Beginnings - and the entries have been coming in, we are really excited to put together the first proper episode of the Monthly Music Challenge, and we are equally excited to see where it goes, come on the journey with us fellow music makers, come make an album across the year. Email your mp3's to cosmicbos@gmail.com around the theme New Beginnings by the 3rd of Feb (which will be the date of the next hashtag). You can also send us now songs written around the 2nd hashtag of month 1 #Pixels.  We are still unsure of how this is going to play out, but we are well aware of several musicians that took part in the Pixels hashtag for music weeklies that didn't take part in the New Beginnings one, and we would really like to spin your tracks in this first month episode. Anyway, thanks for reading all this, this actual podcast is just the demo song that I (Andy) put together for the Pixels hashtag. It was spun on New Music Saturday and got a rave review from the chaps there. What do you recon, any good? Here is the link to the video version on youtube  One Pixel at a Time (Demo) by Cosmic Bos on YouTube Please like, share and subscribe to all our stuff, thanks Here's the link tree for handy access  https://linktr.ee/cosmicbos 

A week into the Monthly Music Challenge and the @musicweeklies chaps have closed the door on submissions and opened up the next hashtag, so @CosmicBos present to you their song 'Nude Beginnings' in its raw week old form. We will now begin the tweaking process, tidy this mess up, get some sweet harmonies in there, maybe a guitar or two more, and I've been eyeing up the bagpipes for a track too (not that I can play them, or have any). You have until the 3rd of Feb to send us your #NewBeginnings track for inclusion in the Monthly round up (Coming shortly after the 3rd Feb - once we've recorded the thing) The new hashtag is now open for submission too, you have a week to do it for the Music Weeklies challenge, and three weeks to do it for the Monthly Challenge. Hopefully that makes sense, we are making this up as we go along pretty much. Submit songs to cosmicbos@gmail.com check out our link tree to find all Cosmic Bos stuff on the internet https://linktr.ee/cosmicbos Please like, share and subscribe and comment too love you

Hello Friends, Closed to the Public by Cosmic Bos Taken from 2 A.M, It's Mission Time https://cosmicbos.bandcamp.com/album/2-a-m-its-mission-time The final track on our Judges Choice Award Winning album from the #albumwritingclub Lights and Lines Album Challenge https://linktr.ee/cosmicbos This song is about private land and secrets that are contained within.

Hello friends, Stop Saying 1984 to Make a Point by Cosmic Bos From our Judges Choice Award Winning Album  https://cosmicbos.bandcamp.com/album/2-a-m-its-mission-time This song is about how people often quote and use the ideas presented in the text of 1984 by George Orwell, to make a point, which ultimately just reveals that the person saying it has not read or understood the text they are quoting, and ironically furthering some of the more alarming elements of the text. Probably not the sort of thing someone should write a song about as it is quite meaningless, but, Cosmic Bos did it, and here it is.

Hello you, Nice to see you here, how's it going? In 2022, Nick and Andy worked on some really fun, exciting projects, and it seemed fitting to close out the year with a little acoustic performance of a selection of the years songs made by Cosmic Bos. Also, the boys did a cover of a Dan Wilson song, Dancing on the Moon, which was Baby Theo's favourite song on the year (he made us play it to him lots and lots). There had been plans for a whole 'Dan Wilson' special, but alas, time got the better of us and the idea has been put back on the shelf to be revisited at a later date (WE LOVE YOU DAN WILSON - you are an inspiration) Please like, share and subscribe https://linktr.ee/cosmicbos Full tracklist for Bos Live 2 Morning Coffee Faded Memories Re:Mission Isle of Avalon Money Pwease Nun in a Kayak Here's Tom with the Weather (Bill Hicks Tribute) Spaceship Earth Dancing on the Moon (Dan Wilson Cover) Thanks for being on the journey with us in 2022, it's been wonderful.
