(Keith Helliwell/Rob Mackenzie)
This song was written at first as a poem by Keith Helliwell that was published for use in a
children’s book. Rob
Mackenzie then saw the poem and wrote some accompanying music for it which
they thought was complimentary to the title.
The words of the poem have been kept in their entirety for
the song with the addition of another two lines that are spoken.
When the demo of the song was first recorded, the
musician Kim Guy described the music as “a great vibe, the guitar on
Scarecrow is gorgeous”.
The song was recorded by the duo Northeastern
Sunrise in 2010 at Strathsound
Studio in Struy, Inverness-shire and included as
the third track of their EP Expectation.
