Blue Bird

Written and Recorded in 1997

A song I wrote for a band called School, where I played the guitar between 1996 and 1998. As the years went by, School became quite irrelevant to its initial scheme, The Soft Core Project, and things I could do for the band as a composer tended to be more and more limited. I remember I gave the basic elements of this tune but entire structure rather relied on the lyrics written by the singer. Since I do not have any right on using the lyrics, I simply removed the voice track for making this video - expect for the non-lyrical section from their live version in the second half. I even don't remember if the keyboard part in the studio version was played by myself or the keyboard player who had been involved by somewhere around mid-1997. In terms of quality as a composition, this has nothing to do with my personal composing skills whatsoever.
In addition, the song title was also taken from the lyrics, to which, again, I have nothing to do with.
