It was a question that BBC CWR decided needing answering: Do cows love jazz?
So to mark BBC Farmwatch on Thursday, the station’s Breakfast presenter Phil Upton took his show to Rob Hadley’s Chesterton Fields Farm, near Leamington Spa in Warwickshire, to attempt to find out.
He called upon the services of 2009 Britain’s Got Talent finalist Julian Smith, and his daughter Sienna, and the pair performed in front of a herd of South Devons, to admittedly mixed results.
The cows clearly prefered it when the saxophonist ditched his backing track and speakers for a more calming experience.
‘Cows love jazz’ has become a popular search topic on TikTok, with one video having just under eight million views, with another on close to four million.
