While the Bard is a good option also, at just five levels you would be missing out on Haste and Keen Edge (+1 attack per round for a total of 9+ and greater chance of criticals). It's not so much a problem if you play in a magic-rich environment where Haste and Keen are already present on many items, but rather a loss otherwise. The return is in a better base attack and better/more skills, complemented further by the song.
