The vocal prowess in this single is astounding. Though mainly consisting of three elements, these elements are so masterful that they form one cohesive sound, made solely to strengthen the vocal. It’s punchy, powerful and full of harmonies that will get your hair standing to attention.

Sending shivers down my arms, the creepiness of ‘A Bird’ pierces your heart and seeps into your soul. What I find intriguing is how the complexity of the song’s theme and sound falls within a simple acoustic package.

Tutta l'ambientazione ci riporta ad un nuovo feeling con la natura, un'esperienza quasi mistica, in cui anche noi, immersi nell'ascolto della voce di Jenny, possiamo sentirci come un uccello che sorvola il male in un pomeriggio malinconico all'imbrunire.

As for Jenny’s voice, it’s a work of wonder on its own. I’m a sucker for techniques…and Jenny has a lot of them. Jenny begins the song with a (seemingly) easy chest register singing in a low alto range. You can notice a distinctly dark colour in her voice, but she doesn’t overdo the darkness effect, on the contrary actually, she has a lot of open vowels and lightly sung closing notes that make a great transition and add to the emotional delivery.
To craft a song that’s equal parts folky/traditional and yet still poppy and accessible like this is a very delicate balance to achieve. Jenny’s music theory knowledge as well as her love for traditional Finnish folk sounds. I really love how she managed to reach that delicate balance with that particular sound…combining her vision and how she wanted the song to be with the elements that please the fans and listeners at the same time.
