Our choice of song - Mel's song by Cosmo Jarvis

After thinking hard about a song our group (Elliot Lowndes, Heidi Martini, Jordan Carr and myself) could use, we chose to go with Mel's song, sung by Cosmo Jarvis.
Cosmo Jarvis is an artist born in New Jersey, America, and he moved to Devon in his childhood. He is an unsigned talent whom i had never heard of before, but Heidi had been a fan of his for a couple of years. Cosmo is yet to become mainstream, but he has developed a big following, there are 1600 subscribers to his MySpace page.

'Mel's Song' is a song with a narrative, in which Cosmo Jarvis talks of a girl named Melanie whom he has feelings for but nothing has come of them. She is someone he desires but has little chance with.

There is also a video on YouTube for Mel's Song, made by Cosmo Jarvis, and this can act as an brief idea on what to do. We can see what type of idea he had for the promo by the video he himself made. His video was homemade and its claimed on YouTube it was "made using one camera and no budget". This is well within our means but we are aiming to make ours more unique, which we will come to on the Treatment.

Although Cosmo Jarvis is unsigned, and therefore his material is free to use, Heidi, the only member of the group with a MySpace account, emailed Cosmo Jarvis asking for permission to use Mel's Song, however we are yet to hear a reply.
