Sean Ono Lennon, Carrie Fisher, and Willow Smith Made a Song Together: Listen

Sean Ono Lennon has shared a new track, “Bird Song,” that he co-wrote with the late Carrie Fisher. Originally penned “years ago,” according to the SoundCloud description, Lennon recorded the song after Fisher’s passing, recruiting Willow Smith (a “prodigal angel”) to provide backing vocals. Lennon and Fisher were longtime friends. Listen to “Bird Song” below, and find Lennon’s full statement about the track below as well.

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.
