Bird Song_R2 by Sean Lennon 7 published on 2017-03-05T12:09:00Z Carrie and I wrote this song years ago. When she died I just felt I had to record it. This is only a demo unmixed, we only had a few hours to record it. But the lyrics she wrote with me I think are marvelous. Carrie and I used to stay up til dawn chatting and pontificating about life. They were my best moments. Anyway... we wrote a song about staying up too late and hearing the birds sing. Willow Smith is a prodigal angel and was generous enough to lend her golden voice to this little tune. Bird Song Love comes on cat's feet It circles the corners It sits by the window and whispers... 'Mine! Your mine! all mine!' My arm fell asleep And dreamt it was your arm Hush lest we break the spell, oh well, oh well.. It's all so wrong To greet the dawn The birds sing that awful song saying 'You don't belong here!'

The verses have a nice breezy feel and the build up is brilliant. Kind of chilling, the piano work is exceptional also.

It feels pure, sort of untouched in a way, very authentic. This song touches my soul, I can sense the genuine emotion, grief and celebration that went into this. Bravo. Beautiful way to honour your friend Sean. 2017-03-14T08:37:47Z Comment by prato oggi life is a wonder. 2017-03-12T09:51:52Z Comment by Gareth McLaughlin Nice.
