This was written and recorded in 2019 after the death of my mother, Faith Christine Sanford. She had a little lovebird named Ernie that she took with her to all of her events and appointments. The title of the song taken from a line in her obituary listing the members of her family she is survived by, that last of which was; her beloved bird, Ernie. The cover of the single is a picture of my mom at only 14 or 15 years old holding her first daughter (my older sister). Ernie is superimposed over the picture in a late 90s photoshop fashion as is the case with a lot of my covers. The song also features two recordings of my mother’s voice. The song opens with my mom and another older sister congratulating Ernie for performing a trick. The song then closes with with a recording of my mom and one of her friend’s comforting and coaching a little girl as she attempts to hold Ernie. You can hear Ernie chirp towards the end of the clip. The song was originally meant to be a part of a larger collection of songs dealing with my mother’s death, my emotions surrounding that and songs about other family and fears about losing them. However, I did not feel the material was strong enough for a wider release. You know the saying; “kill your darlings.” This track and another releasing tomorrow for Father’s Day are two tracks the are salvaged from that project. Just type William Sanford and Beloved Bird, Ernie into the search bar of whatever music platform you’re using or just ask “Hey Alexa,” “Hey Google,” or “Hey Siri” to play Beloved Bird, Ernie by William Sanford. I hope you enjoy. Genre Ambient Comment by primitiveFootsteps The genreless sound is great. A very interesting sound of soothing piano and electronica. 2022-04-22T06:08:16Z Comment by Anibal Seminara Very cool!
