The Beatles-Blackbird

"Blackbird" is a Beatles song from double-disc album The Beatles (also known as The White Album). Blackbird was written by Paul McCartney, who was inspired to write this while in Scotland as a reaction to racial tensions escalating in America in the spring of 1968.

I just heard this song, and i knew that I had to upload it here on Youtube. A beautiful song.

Lyrics:

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.

Blackbird fly Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird fly Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Who cares if the song is short?

@Lewirox ? I really don't see why you needed to do that. I'm just talking about Glee's one rendition of blackbird and not the show itself. It's just an opinion so don't act like i'm automatically wrong...in fact i don't even understand why you told me to shut up? I'm just saying: Let's not mention Glee PERIOD and enjoy this song. OK? OK.

@guy112ex

sorry, but... for you, artists like Beethoven which were born before the Beatles, and which made songs of 40 minutes are for you "old and short songs"?
