For this week, fellow blogger Lisa decided on “Where Unicorns Play” as our theme of the week. Pressed for time, I simply searched for Unicorn songs on YouTube. Much to my surprise the search turned up Irish folk song, cute childrens song, and even a hardstyle dance mix! So let’s start off with: The unicorn song by The Irish Rovers
Something out of the ordinary, this silly song made me smile: Borgore & Sikdope – Unicorn Zombie Apocalypse (Nentou Hardstyle Remix)
A lovely Christian Hymnal Cantus: AMY SHREVE – For The Beauty Of The Earth
Here’s a pretty video, The Maiden and the Unicorn. The video is from Legend, the music is Nara by E.S. Posthumas.
Classic mythical symphonies lend themselves quite well to this magical theme. Beethoven – 6th Symphony ‘Pastoral’
Antonin Dvorak – New World Symphony
Berlioz, Symphonie fantastique, op. 14 (von Karajan)
To reach that special place where the sacred and profound play, simply enter through our open heart. Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Maps (live) LYRICS
I’ll conclude this lovely theme with my original idea of featuring mystical and mysterious animals. White Rabbit – cover by Collide
One of my all time favorite ALT bands, for sheer kookiness: Primus – Mr. Krinkle (I swear I’m seeing unicorns & faeries after watching this vid) 🙂
Till next week, feed u’r imagination! Also visit: Bear Lisa Johnny Eva Willow John

What a great mix! Mr. Krinkle stole the show. I haven’t seen a Primus video in ages. They could have fit a unicorn in there somewhere. ☆☆☆☆☆

Hahaha! You threw in Primus! You nut. LOL! I’ve been singing Tommy the Cat and Johnny was a race car driver all week. Johnny says, “you know I don’t really like Primus.” Which means, You better shutup, bitch. (Joking) He agrees that he is a musical genius though. They do throw their songs along the path to the Unicorn playground. You’re so awesome…. 😀

Thanks! U’r an awesome lady u’rself♥
Yea, Les’ bassline lingers well after the song’s over. Who can get “Wynonna’s Big Brown Beaver” outta u’r head once u’ve listened? We’ve been infected, haha.
I was gonna include that track, yet even his claymation couldn’t morph the beaver into a unicorn. Darn I love that nutty song!
Your mission, if you choose to accept it, get Emma to pick the next theme which expresses who she really is!
If she says nothing, bow and thank her for being so zen. U’r the master, she’s the student who thinks she’s cool. 😉
