I like it! It's kinda cute...
Though I have to admit, their expressions don't really convey their emotions; furthermore in what the whole song is about...
But I've got admit that the fish [that goldfish, I'm assuming?] does look very real, and I should take back my comment about improving the expressions, especially the fish's, since they have a blank, expression-less stare.... I'll let you off for that...
The way you've positioned the bird; it does look inquisitive, but unfortunately when I look at this scene it just prepares me to see bloody carnage...
Overall, it's great!

It's kind of cute, but they don't really look like they're in love or anything. I reckon this would look better as a cartoon with love hearts in the eyes and everything.
The tree right above the water seems to be a weird place to put it. It's a good picture, I just don't think it can properly convey the emotion that there's supposed to be (I haven't heard the song so I don't really know).

Oh, they're not really supposed to be conveying emotions... I meant for them to just sort of look like they really do, not cartoony.
Of course, now I see that there's really no point in drawing something like this if you're not going to portray the emotion. I probably just wanted to draw a bird and a fish, since I tend to doodle fishes especially, haha.
^_^ Thanks, everyone.

hey i liked this i liked the way the bird was just watching the fish practically saying "your lunch"
but i think you should make the fish more worried, maybe bigger eyes. also make the bird more curious and jumpy towards the fish. over all i liked this.
keep drawing

this was light and happy...sort of...if you're not the bird or the fish...
i do suggest that you change their expressions. or at least the fish's. it looks a tad scared.
they should look longingly at each other, internally torchered by their love.
yeah. thats all i would change. you have a great cartoon-y look to your piece. it's nice.
good job.
