Bard charm doesn`t work like it`s supposed to period. But in its mutated p99 format, wherethe lvl 27 charm will last indefinitely as long as you don't play any other song, charismahas had a huge impact since the latest changes. I get a charisma buff, I play charm with wind instrument then once it lands put in crude stein instead to bring my charisma to 183 and I get to keep a pet for a very long time(a couple minutes on average, sometimes over 5), enough to warrant giving him weapons and buffs.
I try to justify it to myself that it is a bit balance since I can't do anything else whileits charmed, but it really shouldn't work like this at all. Lvl 27 charm is supposed to be3 ticks or less, and lvl 39 charm should be up to a minute max, although for the latter theydid change mechanics a few times (I remember the patch message about bards being no longer able to charm dieties) so I can't say for sure without research, and I'm at work.
