  • Feed the Birds (from "Mary Poppins") Cover by Elizabeth South was released 9/28/13 on iTunes at: itunes.apple.com/us/album/fee...
    A friend & co-worker of mine has been asking me for several years to record a Broadway Disney favorite "Feed the Birds" from Mary Poppins. While I was recording my new Country Album this summer (to release this coming year), I found a moment to quickly record it for her finally! So this song is dedicated to Michelle Rosen. Recording this song takes me back to my beginning roots of singing & the fact that Julie Andrews has always been my favorite singer.
    I hope you will all enjoy it! Please comment, thumbs up, and share! I thank you in advance!
    Blessings always,
    Elizabeth South

    The crumbs are meant to represent the time we give to our children - time which we can never have again once they have flown the nest.

    Beautiful singing, I can just close my eyes and imagine the scene and I can see the cathedral and the old lady feeding the birds. It always amazes me how well you can take a song and make it sound so beautiful. I pray that you continue to put out more beautiful songs that would touch people. Blessings always.

    As someone who is highly picky with their music and versions of songs, this... this made me cry.
    Not only did you get the spirit of the song right, which I could feel through your pauses and pronunciation, you show that you actually understand the song and it's meaning by the way you focus your voice just right... all in all, this is one of the few covers I will forever hold to the same title as the original, and I'd be proud if I'd made it.

    Elizabeth, it is so enjoyable to "discover" a new song that you have sung before, in this case nine years ago. This song shows the great range you have in your vocals. It is quite amazing and I'm happy to have heard your version of it. I hope life is treating you very well. Have a great 2023 year!

    The best cover of this beautiful song I have ever heard. Breathtaking voice. I was wondering if you would ever do a cover of these songs below.
    - Emma's Song (Once Upon A Time)
    - On My Father's Wings (Quest For Camelot)
    - Little One (The Rescuers)
    - Journey To The Past (Anastasia)
    - Flying Dreams (The Secret Of Nimh)

    Your voice is very beautiful for this song. Also, I want to acknowledge and give kudos out to the music of your piece, too. I’m a keyboardist, and love instrumental music. “Feed the Birds” has just the right amount of major and minor chords. Almost has a Danny Elfman touch to it. Magnificent!!!!

    Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's
    The little old bird woman comes
    In her own special way to the people
    She calls, "Come, buy my bags full of crumbs"
    "Come feed the little birds, show them you care
    And you'll be glad if you do
    Their young ones are hungry, their nests are so bare
    All it takes is tuppence from you"
    "Feed the birds, tuppence a bag
    Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag
    Feed the birds", that's what she cries
    While overhead, her birds fill the skies
    All around the cathedral, the saints and apostles
    Look down as she sells her wares
    Although you can't see it, you know they are smiling
    Each time someone shows that he cares
    Though her words are simple and few
    "Listen, listen", she's calling to you
    "Feed the birds, tuppence a bag
    Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag"
    Though her words are simple and few
    "Listen, listen", she's calling to you
    "Feed the birds, tuppence a bag
    Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag"
