Cosmo Jarvis

Classically, when a child is at home playing in his dress-ups as a pirate, we don't ever even come close to linking the idea of a pirate with the concept of homosexuality, but in the mind of the front man for the increasingly popular British outfit, Cosmo Jarvis seems to have made that link. Cosmos' train of thought was that if "one in every ten men are gay" then, when pirates sailed the seas as we traditionally think, there must have been gay pirates and it would have been horrible to be on board a ship and to be in love with one of your fellow pirates. The song is cute, thats pretty much the only word i could think of to describe it. The film clip is even more creative, and i believe it has a strong link to the Shakespearean text "The Twelfth Night" where a pirate named Antonio is in love with a man named Sebastian. Have a watch of the video and see how you like it.  Regardless of your views on the topic, you have to admit its a damn catchy tune and the film clip seems to be a homage to a shakespearean play. Enjoy!
