Martina x SickKids: Lily’s Raincoat
Description :
That beat you hear is the sound of the late Lily’s heartbeat, who lived just over a month due to congenital heart failure. It’s also the inspiration behind this song, Lily’s Raincoat, by Martina Sorbara of @DragonetteBand and Tom Westin, brought to life through a modern dance performance by @Emma Portner directed by Tajana B-Williams. It’s such a rare gift to be included in something as special and meaningful as this tiny little piece and I'm so thankful to Lily's parents for sharing her heart song and her story with me and the whole wide world,” says Martina, who was inspired to pen the lyrics after hearing Lily’s heartbeat. “I closed my eyes and saw a crystal-clear picture. I heard a wide wondrousness and all the words were in there waiting for me. As I sang, I wondered whether I was singing to Lily, or if Lily was singing to me.” Of this precious gift that will honour Lily’s legacy forever, her parents are both grateful and proud to share Lily’s story and help spread awareness this Heart Month. Our hearts and sincerest thanks go out to Lily and her family ❤️
