Song 308 (America--"A Horse With No Name")



Earlier this song was on the radio and it has been stuck in my head a bit, so I decided since I haven't chosen an America song yet I will now.
This Folk/Rock song is known mostly for its weird lyrics and imagery. Over the years I have heard three explanations about the odd subject matter/lyrics of the song: 1. It is a song about going through withdrawals after quitting a drug, 2. It is about taking a new drug, 3. A bad drug trip. Whatever the case, it is still an excellent song.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
