not every day bro every 100 years

The lovely thing about spoken-word storytelling is that it's not the same as reciting or reading from a book; different storytellers will tell subtly different versions of a story, they don't all have to be the same :)

[@neonkatt2349]

Selim I know right because no offense but not only is it accurate but it sounds more epic when it’s a hundred years

[@azazelinfinity4926]

in the original story it was every day.

[@serenahiggins1849]

Azazel Infinity No, the original says every hundred years. As I write this comment I am looking in my book of all 211 stories, at The Shepherd Boy and it says “every hundred years a little bird comes and sharpens its beak on it,”

[@mariatolich4056]

@@serenahiggins1849 You're right. According to Dr Who Heaven Sent the shepherd's boy's said "every hundred years a little bird sharpens it's beak on that diamond mountain"😊❤

not every day, every hundred years

[@neonkatt2349]

jiwon park exactly

[@joeparker3363]

The boy doesn't actually answer how many seconds there are

[@hazerddex]

It was still a good answer

[@danielw9542]

Joe Parker This was actually the last part of a 3 part story

[@dhooth]

Yeah because he can't actually do that because it's infinity and seconds are finite and therefore not infinite but that's kind of the point of the whole story which personally I think is one hell of a cool story.

[@serenahiggins1849]

Still he answered the king’s three questions like a wise man and was allowed to dwell with the king in his royal palace and was regarded and as the king’s own child. This it the ending of the original story if you could not tell.

7

That second is shorter than I remember

[@danielkeating4821]

That's one heck of a bird, and a short span of time, when u think about it

[@grayeaglej]

Thats Galafrein Script in the "sky" isn't it? Sadly my translation matrix is on the fritz and I can't read it. :/

[@hamityalcin655]

you are the best man..

[@svec1991]

Could you post tabs for the song? :)

[@ExilianMedia]

We'd love to, but it was all just done on the fly rather than being written down, improvised and moving between simple Am/C/G chords if that helps.

[@mr.truffles9294]

Thank you

[@tugboss0273]

So loud, I'm trying to listen and it's like a guitar solo

[@memesstar780]

Boi this music is not my jam and there are infinite seconds in a eternity because eternity means forever you didn't even answer it

[@ExilianMedia]

I mean it was a pretty silly question to start with, let's be honest.

[@YanitedFc]

That's the point🤦‍♂️

[@mentoplayz8244]

You’re an idiot
