"[3] The parent album's title was lifted from a lyric in the song, which was inspired by a wildcard tattoo Lambert had recently got on her arm memorializing a lyric from "Easy From Now On", an Emmylou Harris song that the singer previously covered on her 2007 album, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.

[6] In it, Lambert is shown performing the song on a swing while inside of a giant birdcage as spectators watch from their seats.

[6] The video was shot at a nightclub in New York City over the course of eight hours, and featured Lambert wearing a bedazzled feather dress and gloves with blue rhinestone eyeshadow,[7] while the spectators recalled the "era of flappers and the confident chanteuse" (an ode to the 1920s).

[6] "Bluebird" debuted at number 38 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart dated November 11, 2019, ahead of its release as a single.

[10] It since became a number one hit on the Billboard Country Airplay chart dated August 1, 2020, becoming Lambert's first as a solo artist since "Over You" in May 2012.
