Rachel Zegler Breathes New Life into 'Mary Poppins' Classic for Richard Sherman
Rachel Zegler honors the late Richard Sherman with a touching performance of “Feed the Birds” from “Mary Poppins,” showcasing the songwriter’s enduring legacy.
The world of music lost a legend recently, but his melodies linger. Songwriter Richard Sherman, half of the iconic Sherman brothers duo, passed away. In a beautiful act of remembrance, actress and singer Rachel Zegler, who stole hearts in West Side Story, shared a heartfelt tribute.
Zegler took to Instagram, her voice carrying the weight of nostalgia as she sang “Feed the Birds” from Mary Poppins. This touching ballad tells the story of an old beggar woman selling breadcrumbs at St Paul’s Cathedral to those willing to feed the pigeons.
The song choice is a powerful tribute. It speaks volumes about Sherman’s gift: crafting unforgettable melodies that weave stories and touch hearts and Zegler’s performance is equally moving. Her emotions paint the song with new life, honoring the profound mark Sherman left on music and film.
