I believe it was name.

...but now that you mention it, "mane" would make more sense.

"A Horse with No Name" is the best Neil Young song not written by Neil Young.

CAUSE THERE AIN'T NOONE FOR TO GIVE YOU NO PAIN?

That dude was a weirdo! What's up with "Ventura Highway" with the alligator lizards in the air and stuff?

five years pass...

is this band worth looking into

i realize they are Neil Young ripoff but might not be opposed to that

― lukevalentine, Friday, 12 February 2010 06:09 (sixteen years ago)

or does anyone know beyond Horse With No Name etc

― lukevalentine, Friday, 12 February 2010 06:10 (sixteen years ago)

George Martin made them stop touring.

― Zachary Taylor, Friday, 12 February 2010 06:14 (sixteen years ago)

they did the soundtrack to The Last Unicorn.

when "horse w/no name" was on the radio I was all "whoa a new neil young song" and didn't realize it was america for like months...stupid kid

― the mighty the mighty BOHANNON (m coleman), Friday, 12 February 2010 10:16 (sixteen years ago)

I don't know much about this band but "Sister Golden Hair" is a classic jam (except for the silly boogie parts, but the main riff makes up for that silliness).

And Nilsson's take on "I Need You" is great so maybe the original is too?

search: Ventura Highway

― that's not my post, Saturday, 13 February 2010 07:36 (sixteen years ago)

I used to do an amazing imitation of the vocals when I was a kid (amazing to my older brother anyway).

― _Rudipherous_, Saturday, 13 February 2010 07:42 (sixteen years ago)

(Or maybe just amusing.)

four years pass...

christ

― marcos, Tuesday, 16 September 2014 16:32 (eleven years ago)

looked it up in "shakey" and i realize that i far from the only person to think this

― marcos, Tuesday, 16 September 2014 16:32 (eleven years ago)

i'll give myself the benefit of the doubt that it was playing in car radio in the show and wasn't totally audible

― marcos, Tuesday, 16 September 2014 16:37 (eleven years ago)

I've been listening to the Last Unicorn soundtrack a lot lately and there's a great little ersatz Fleetwood Mac harmony on the outro to this one.

I haven't got around to any of their other stuff, but someday soon I'm going to youtube up a bunch of it.

"Sandman" and "Don't Cross the River" are both worth checking out IMO.
