Thread Name: songs about birds
Subject: RE: songs about birds
Seem to remember from somewhere Eliza Carthy talking about Lal Waterson's affinity with birds which is reflected in some of her songs. 'Flight of the Pelican' springs to mind as does those wonderful lines from Child among the Weeds'
'Fly bird fly on you raven wing
Take to the sky and sing for the love of wheeling and turning'
Birds are also mentioned in four other songs from the 'Bright Phoebus'album
