The unicorn song is a song abbout animals getting onto the arc:
Here is a link to the performers web site and the song. It is only a small snipet, but you will get the idea.

I've already Pm'd Hamish with the song info. For those not familier with it, you can download it for free from the Brodingnagian Bards site.

Many thanks to Keith and to SB for the links. I have not heard of this group (nor can I spell their name!!) but from the brief clips I heard in the wee small hours of this morning, they come across well. Like most folk groups, I guess they are better live than on a recording. Come to think of it, I've not heard a group playing live for many a long year - they don't seem to come to Storrington!
The song seems to be fun, but I think I'll need a few playings to get into it.
Keith, when performing The Unicorn Song, do you do actions for all the animals?!!!

Yes
When the song plays you do hand motions for all the animals. It is a song that my wife enjoys, I don't know if she enjoys my dancing though. It was a great time though.

Hamish, it's actually a children's song, but it makes for a great sing along in the pub.
Here are the lyrics: http://www.thebards.net/music/lyrics...orn_Song.shtml
you can listen to the song as well on the top of that page, but the Irish Rovers (a Canadian band) version is the best. You can hear a snipet of it here: http://www.amazon.com/-Best-Irish-Ro...962401?ie=UTF8
