Ed Sheeran- Little Bird Lyrics

LYRICS

If we take this bird in,
with his broken leg,
we could nurse it, she said.
come inside for a little lie down with me,
if you fall asleep, it wouldn't be the worst thing.

but when i wake up,
your make up is on my shoulder,
and tell me if i lie down,
would you stay now, let me hold ya.

but if i kiss you,
will your mouth read this truth
darling how i miss you,
strawberry's taste how lips do,

and it's not complete yet,
mustn't get our feet wet,
cause that leads to regret,
diving in too soon.

and i'll owe it all to you,
my little bird.
...my little bird.

take a walk out, in the morning dew,
we could lay down, so i'm next to you,
and come inside for a little home made tea,
if you fall asleep then,
at least you're next to me.

and if i wake up,
???
go back to sleep.

i'm covered by nature,
and i'm safe now,
underneath this oak tree,
with you beside me.

but if i kiss you,
will your mouth read this truth
darling how i miss you,
strawberry's taste how lips do,

and it's not complete yet,
mustn't get our feet wet,
cause that leads to regret,
diving in too soon.

and i'll owe it all to you,
my little bird.

my little bird (3x)

and of all these things i'm sure of,
i'm not quite certain of your love.
and you make me scream,
but then i made you cry.
when i left that little bird,
with it's broken leg to die.

but if i kiss you,
will your mouth read this truth
darling how i miss you,
strawberry's taste how lips do,

and it's not complete yet,
mustn't get our feet wet,
cause that leads to regret,
diving in too soon.

but i'll owe it all to you,
my little bird.
my little bird (ooohh)
my little bird.
my little bird,
mmmmyy little bird,
you're my little bird.

Pre Production

Had a discussion about the stages of the filming and what the actors will be doing. We have been looking at the stages of the film and thinking of the different aspects we may want to incorporate. So far written ideas have been thought of.

Audience Feedback

Feedback

In order to improve our music video getting audience feedback was important as it would give an idea on what type of things should be improved. Also to see whether the ideas thought of are interesting enough to capture an audience’s attention.  

The audience were curious to find out how we were going to get the birds and what type of birds would be used to portray what we’re representing. However birds wouldn’t be an issue to find as there are many type of birds in the park such as pigeons etc. At first they were unsure of how the video was going to work with the women been an alcoholic but then with an explanation they understood what the aim was. Overall the feedback was positive and not much was said to be changed.

Media Treatment

The narrative idea

A boy and girl is in a relationship but the boy finds out that she is a secret alcoholic and so breaks up with her. During the breakup the girl try's to change her ways and at the end of the video the boy and girl get back together.

The music video will show the boy lip singing on the park bench having flash backs of what happened in the relationship.

Performance included in the music video would be the boy who would be lip-singing in the video. Conceptual elements included in the music video would be the birds that would appear in the music video as the song is titled 'little bird' and so the bird would be a metaphor for the girl.
 
Professional music videos that inspired us were A-Team and Small bump by Ed Sheeran. Also 'breakeven' by the script.

For our music video we would have to audition students of performing arts as the music video includes a lot of acting.

No ethical considerations.

The song is 3mins:44secs long; the musiv video would probably run for 4 minutes.

The audience of the music video would be people who listen to folk music.

Music video would appear on YouTube.

Creative Ideas

Yesterday the song was decided, which was Ed Sheeran- Little Bird. The song was chosen as the content of song cna create a creative video and wouldn't be something typicaly done. Also the lyrics were looked at giving an idea of what the meaning is and how the video should be in comparrison with it.


Today the narrative idea and theme was thought of and the emotion which we want t portray. The intorduction planning and ideas were disgused such as the type of actors/actress we feel will be needed. Also what extras and props that may be used.
