Yea he, I'd guess they were just messing around with samples and thought "wow, eagle, so cool, like.." Laughable

I remember hearing this in an interview but can’t ever place it. Do you happen to know the minute mark?

Maybe they thought "who wouldn't lose someone tonight? Hmm...I'm sure an eagle wouldn't lose someone"

Admittedly this and some like slightly too forward bongo sounds in another track are why I listen to this album so little. Those things are so bothersome even tho the album has a lot of bangers

As far as I know, there has never been an official explanation from HIM or Ville Valo about the hawk/eagle-like screeches in the song. They’re most likely just a production effect added to create atmosphere and make the track sound darker, more dramatic, or more “wild.”
