Holy shit guys, so I'm freaking out about all the same stuff as everyone else about OFMD s2 episodes 4 and 5 (exquisite, show-stopping, so well-fed, feral) but what I don't see people talking about?? Absolutely awesome song "Seabird" by the Alessi Brothers OFFICIALLY in OFMD! I added that song to my OFMD playlist prior to the Season 2 premiere because it's so good, it's from the Hunt for the Wilderpeople soundtrack, and seems fitting for OFMD. OF COURSE they used it in OFMD because Taika but omg I couldn't believe it. For all the anticipated AND unexpected twists this season, I feel like I called something lol
Also I hope this wasn't a permanent goodbye for Mr. Buttons, I love our little Sea Witch 😭

Something about "lonely seabird, you've been away from land too long" after Ed's story about the bird that flies forever and never touches the ground
Something about "there's a road I know I must go, even though I tell myself that road is closed" after Ed thinking aloud that he's unlovable
Something about that song playing as Stede calls for Ed to come with him, and Ed running to catch up

This series, man. The fucking music. It feels like someone raided my record collection, and I just love it.
I know what I said about Strawberry Letter 23, and I stand by it. But there's something about the use of Seabird while Buttons achieves his dreams that's just... perfect. Every time I watch that scene, it just gets better and better and better.
Also, I just have to share that my girlfriend completely thought Con O'Neill was singing Baby at the end of 02x05. I hated having to tell her the truth.

I can’t believe it took me this long to realize that the song from the Howard mission in Spider-man 2 (that TikTok has adopted as the default swinging around New York music) is the same song that plays at the end of OFMD 204 after Buttons becomes a bird. I knew that song sounded familiar! Adding it to my Ed’s Blanket Fort Jams playlist now.

I want a 3 hour video essay that explains how and why the song Seabird by the Alessi Brothers got prominently featured in Our flag means death and Spider-Man 2 in the same month.

“Seabird, seabird
Fly home
Like a lonely seabird
You've been away from land too long
Oh, too long,”

Jesse Kivel has been making indie rock music since the aughts, first in the hyper-literate band Princeton with his twin brother Matt and later in synth-dance-y Kisses. Now living in Maine and newly a dad, he recorded his best material yet in the second solo album, Life and Death at Party Rock. In her review at Dusted last month, Jennifer Kelly wrote, “Kivel has suddenly scratched below the surface, finding an unexpected, melancholy beauty in loosely collated daydreams. Life and Death at Party Rock haunts rather than pleases.” Here’s what Kivel has in his listening queue.
Bobby McFerrin — By The Sea
youtube
My friend Michael passed me this video years ago and I was just blown away by the talent, skill and concentration displayed in this performance. A lot of times we focus on the recorded version of a song, but in this case, Bobby makes a simple song transform into a technical feat of emotion and beauty.
Oasis — Live by The Sea (full concert)
youtube
Oasis was the band that changed everything for me. My brother and I would pretend to be Noel and Liam, snarling and playing Noel’s simple yet powerful solo's. We also snagged all of their live concert videos, including this one. Nothing beats Liam’s swagger in this moment and the energy and excitement this group could bring.
Alessi Brothers — Seabird (live)
youtube
This song was on a compilation or mixtape I received a while back. Gorgeous vibes and perfect to play in the early evenings. Also, keeping up with the brother/identical twin theme that has defined my life and creative output.
Linda McCartney — Seaside Woman
youtube
One of my wife Zinzi’s favorite songs, this tune has incredibly energy and feel. The lyrics are a touch problematic, and I truly can't be sure that Paul didn't write this one. He is basically singing through the entire thing, and it sounds like his vibe. Regardless, it is a lovely tune and I really like Linda’s solo record.
Beck — Guess I'm Doing Fine: Sea Change
Easily my favorite Beck record. It speaks to some of the natural textures and feelings I was trying to put on my new LP. This record reminds me of visiting a college in Atlanta. I slept over on campus and this record helped me sleep in a strange/unknown environment.
Don Gibson — Sea of Heartbreak
youtube
An iconic and classic tune, covered by everyone from Jonny Cash to Van Morrison. Gorgeous and simple, like many of those late 50’s/early 60’s tunes of yesteryear.
Phil Phillips & The Twilights — Sea of Love
youtube
I am 38 so most of my friends and peers know the Cat Power version of this. I have love for that cover as it exposed me to the original. I love the crisp and focused way the original is recorded. Eerie and slightly haunting, it is a beautiful tune.
Jesse Kivel — Overgrown Ocean
youtube
I would be nothing if not a shameless self-promoter :) This song is about visualizing myself crashing down into Penobscot Bay on a Cape Air Cessna. I wrote the lyrics to this song on my first flight with Cape Air which was incredibly foggy and overwhelming. As we cut through the clouds, an overwhelming calm reached me, and the lyrics are a meditation on death and finding peace with it.
Dennis Wilson — Pacific Ocean Blues
youtube
Growing up in Southern California, all I can say is I can relate to Dennis and the blues that often can accompany living in the region. The relentless sun and lack of seasons can really do someone in. Dennis, to his credit, correctly points out over and over in this song that the Pacific Ocean is blue. I appreciate his clear-eyed perception here.
Wilco + Billy Bragg — The Secret of The Sea
youtube
Wilco and Billy Bragg both have loomed large in my early musical education. Separately with their early records and then this Woody Guthrie collaboration. My brother and I went to Tulsa to visit Guthrie's museum a few years ago. While the Dylan one was put together more tastefully, I just remember relating to Guthrie as all his notebooks had endless amounts of mundane lists. This captured my heart as this is essentially all I do with my notebooks as well.

The song is 'Seabird' from the Alessi Brothers :)
I figured the song was probably called "Seabird", but I couldn't be sure. Also I didn't know who the artist was, so thanks for telling me ! :D
