🐴 HORSE WITH NO NAME 🏜
I don't get this song......
Got on a plane for 8 hours.
They've traveled in a car for 4 more hours to get to a horse ranch.
Met the horse - saddled up - fed it a carrot even.
He goes riding for I'd say at least a full day....
Get to end of track turns around.
Gets back to base camp.
Flies back home...
Has TIME to do all that.....
AND finds time to write a whole song about it...
Couldn't be F@cked naming the horse.... ???
Lazy C@nt :-p

Happy 70th Birthday to GERRY BECKLEY, singer, songwriter, and musician, and a founding member of the band AMERICA (born September 12, 1952).
Gerry played 12-string acoustic guitars and performed backing vocals on a HORSE WITH NO NAME.
NOTE: I've improved the picture quality and color of the original clip. However, I've had to place a filter effect over the video so that you can watch it on Facebook.
America was formed in England by sons of US servicemen who were stationed there. Lead singer Dewey Bunnell wrote 'A Horse With No Name' when he was 19.
Although the song is commonly misinterpreted about being on drugs, it is not: Bunnell based the images in the lyrics on things he saw while visiting the US.
'A Horse With No Name' was originally titled "Desert Song," since Bunnell wrote it based on the desert scenery he encountered when his dad was stationed at an Air Force base in Santa Barbara County, California.
The song told a rather abstruse tale about a trip though the desert. While the landscape is unforgiving, the singer also finds comfort in that scenario.
According to Dewey Bunnell, the "horse" represents a means of entering a place of tranquility, and this tranquil place was best represented by the desert, which sounded pretty good to him while he was stuck in rainy England.
Released as a single in the UK, it shot to #3 in January 1972, prompting the group's label, Warner Bros., to issue the single in the US and also release the album with the song included.
In March, both the single and album hit #1 in the US; the song stayed at the top spot for three weeks, the album for five.
