i am re reading prince caspian (the last time i read it was before i discovered eisley), and look at all the words + phrases i found so far that are in eisley lyrics and titles

sleepy head (entire title)
Lady of the wood! (entire title ch 9 2nd pg)
shining eyes (brightly wound)
rabbit (marvelous things)
dear
sea (sea king, lost at sea)
king (sea king)
shirt and chainmail (i know its really sword though right? but it sounds the same)
brightly (brightly wound)
forest (over the mountains and other songs)
dawn (marvelous things)
beast (they all surrounded me)
moss, mossy (over the mountains)
tree-tops, cliff-tops (tree tops)
the wood (trolley wood)

any by the way the generic words like forest, brightly, sea and king, were said a lot, some like every page or else i wouldnt have mentioned them. the wood, and trees were also mentioned a million times.

sorry, im weird, but i just thought it was cool. do you think maybe some of theere lyrics were inspired by narnia?

Yes, the band have said as much. They're very Narnian folk.

Well, we all know that the Eisleys are native Narnians.

However, many of those are just common...words.

That's true, no doubt. The lyrics are fantastic (fantastic: related to "fantasy"). Ah, Narnia.

Um, no. C. S. Lewis got his ideas from EISLEY.

Oh you're thinking of weston...and I think you mean "chicken" legs. It's cool I mix up animals all the time.

Boyd is really only half-Narnian....
he's half-Space Alien...
and also half Robot as well....

add that up, and you get One-and-a-half......

it's confusing, isn't it?

but it's true!

"Lady of the wood" is the only one that can be seen as an actual connection between the two. Everything else is way too common.
