I'm preparing to perform this song for a dying friend. It was one of the very first songs I learned to sing and play guitar with. He introduced the song to me a little over fifty years ago, and I could never get it out of my head after that. I'm giving it back to him for the trip home. May this simple gift carry you there. Travel well, my dear friend, George Martinez.

In 1972 I dropped out of college, parked my Mach 1 Mustang and hitchhiked across the US. I was hoping to get to Oregon, but it was February - March and the weather stopped me. Spent a couple of week camped in the desert outside Tucson. When I got my first ride back to Miami, the tune on the radio was - A Horse With No Name

I was 70 years yesterday. This was my favourite record of 1972 when at school. Sitting in the sixth form lounge listening to A Horse with no Name, makes me cry now, thinking of my dad and the time as a young girl.

[@chiz7788]

Could you please tell, is there any story(or metaphor) the song trying to tell with its lyrics? (As a non-native English speaker, I enjoy the rythem however am unable to catch the meaning of the song) Thanks!

[@AnnRBrown]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@melissatodd673]

@@chiz7788 Thank you for your inquiry…it has caused me to think a little deeper about the words themselves and not just the feeling that the words produce. The song speaks of a journey…and the “first part” is through an arid , difficult environment where a dry riverbed makes him “sad to think it was dead” . A sense of things coming to an end, nature under stress…Then he lets the horse run free as the sea appears..an endless horizon, renewed possibilities…and the listener feels a sense of relief, freshness, hope. This discovery of the ocean after a rough transit thru harsh terrain is often associated with the West Coast of North America. It is symbolic of the great migration in NA…”go West, young man”….. I actually don’t know, but that is one take on it!

This song makes me cry every time I hear it. It reminds me so much of my depression and the desert of isolation that came with it, at first it was comfortable being alone but then the pain sets in fast. After a while once you have the energy to “let your horse run free” and seek help, it’s like you have a brand new life. You see the world so differently.

It may seem strange, but although born and raised in a Mediterranean country, the sound of America and especially this song has added one defining dimension to the way I see the landscapes and the people I come across for the last 45 years.

I've never been to the US, but this song brings forward an overwhelming sense of nostalgia over a memory I never even lived.
