America Lyrics

    ------ About the song Now That I'm A Woman performed by America

In my opinion, I think it's a very heartfelt song. It sounds as if she's about to cry, and it has a sort of haunting quality to it. You can really relate to her pain somehow. A beautiful unicorn (The last of her kind.) suddenly turned into a human to save her life. She was once a beautiful, majestic creature with a flowing mane and the wind flowing about her as she galloped. But now she she is reduced to two legs, even though she is still beautiful, she is not a unicorn. She was the only hope for her kind, and now it is all lost. It's a sad song. Even though I have never seen the movie, I think it's a lovely song, and should definitely be included if they ever make a live action remake. I want to be a movie maker when I grow up, so maybe I can make that happen.

    ------ About the song That's All I've Got To Say performed by America

The soundtrack of The Last Unicorn is seriously undervalued. Not that many people appreciate the beauty of all the songs, including this one.
It is a beautiful song, one that expresses the personal hardship of one in love, the kind that hits you hard and almost unexpectedly.

    ------ About the song Man's Road performed by America

This is a beautiful song, indeed. But while it is melancholic, it is not as hopeless as some here seem to think. Given the film, you have to take this song together with "I'm Alive"/"The Last Unicorn" (whichever title you prefer) to get a fuller picture. There is not hopelessness here, when you take both songs together in context.

What strikes me about both songs is the enormous amount of Christian imagery in them. The first three lines of stanza 2 of "Walking Man's Road" can be read as essentially paraphrases of what Jesus Christ experienced when he became human. The second and third lines of stanza 3 combine with much of the lyrics of "I'm Alive" to present not only an apocalyptic scenario, but much hope beyond it. We sometimes "[wait] in silence for the sky to explode" ("Walking Man's Road"), but we also can "look into the sky" to the sparkling aliveness of Jesus Christ ("I'm Alive"). This life is not hopeless.

    ------ About the song Man's Road performed by America

This truly timeless masterpiece and its beautiful,yet dark,lyrics will live on in the hearts of millions of people forever. It's a song about real life and how it often can be hard and seemingly hopeless which everybody can relate to. Happy Endings are reality but sometimes you have to walk down "Man's Road" in order to get there.....God Bless "America" !

    ------ About the song Man's Road performed by America

This song and all the rest of the Unicorn-Soundtrack is a part of my life, of my youth. Forever in my mind. This music made me to the poetic man, I'm now.
Just want to say "Thank you", Jimmy. You left a footprint at the beach of my soul.

    ------ About the song Man's Road performed by America

I grew up with this song. And am living it. I sung it as a child, and sing it now. All I can add to that, aside from how much this song means to me, is that the person who gave the only other review gave a perfect one. Life is cruel. We don't all get a happily ever after.

    ------ About the song A Horse With No Name performed by America

I don't know what you guys are hearing but this song makes a lot of sense to me. It is a very spiritual song. At first the feeling of freedom and then the search for life and meaning and then the revelation that even when you find that life and come through the hard times, things are still deeper than you can understand and are still imperfect. Even if you see the world differently doesn't mean others will see it that way. I get it :)

    ------ About the song Man's Road performed by America

A beautiful song; very sad and hopeless... one of the few songs, telling the unspoken story of truly awful suffering. Not that there aren't enough songs about the subject, but this is not lying. In such a situation you lost hope completely and no Happy End is in sight, neither do you even consider it. Most songs say something like "It's all dark, but I have hope, I will raise and come back stronger!" but sometimes it's really not that. Life can go on (though not in all times) in such situations, but not because everything will be back to normal, but you get used to it...no hope, just tolerance...that's all!
Maybe the actual "Moral" of the song could be "This 'wound' won't heal, never! I will never come over it...still, here I am" No being happy or just being alright; only being there...
