The first song is a symbolic tribute to taking flight, as the introduction to the video explains, and is a proud declaration that a certain word, "Bird," happens to be the word. The following song is a proclomation of identity of saying, "I Am." Well, actually, of having said "I Am," to inanimate objects such as chairs. While Neil Diamond likes to make such self-assured statements to furniture, I will never know. But for me, I was to proudly to declare that "I Am the Bird," or something like that.
I wish I could say that there were fancy live videos to the singing portion of the song, but there aren't. Just a black screen, a future unknown. It's poetry, I think.
