In case you were wondering what might come out on top as the ultimate sad song of the year - Andrew Bird and Phoebe Bridgers have put in a late contender. Collaborating on ‘I Felt A Funeral, In My Brain’, the two really are a musical match made in heaven.

Inspired by an Emily Dickinson poem of the same name, Andrew said: “I came across this Emily Dickinson poem and found it to be the most vivid description of an inner world I’ve ever encountered. It became an inspiration for the songs on Inside Problems. Who better to sing it with than Phoebe Bridgers? I sent her a demo and so, here we are.”

Another addition to the long list of incredible Phoebe Bridgers features, and another impeccable track from Andrew Bird - we imagine this collab is making sad girls world wide very, very happy.

‘I Felt A Funeral, In My Brain’ is out now
