Description: The Unicorn Irish Rovers Description: 1971 Original. "The Unicorn" is a song performed by The Irish Rovers, originally written by Shel Silverstein. Released in 1967, it became one of the band's most popular and enduring hits. The song tells the story of Noah's Ark and whimsically explains why unicorns are not seen today, suggesting that they missed the boat because they were too busy playing. The playful lyrics describe a variety of animals boarding the ark two by two, while the unicorns are depicted as carefree and frolicsome, ultimately leading to their absence from the vessel. Musically, "The Unicorn" features a lively, folk-inspired music which blends traditional Irish musical elements with contemporary folk influences. The engaging rhythm and catchy chorus contribute to its lasting appeal, making it a favorite among audiences of all ages. The ablums success helped cement The Irish Rovers' reputation in the folk music scene and continues to be a nostalgic and beloved track, often associated with joyful sing-alongs and lighthearted storytelling.
