  • How the heck would they know shes the last?!

  • @Christinacolasanto didn't watch the movie or read the book didja?

  • @Christinacolasanto watch the godamn movie

  • America should do more songs for animated films like this one that would be so cool

  • I loved this film so much! <3

  • uhhhhh so many memories :(

  • Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin Jr: Hey America-guys! can you make a wonderful song for our movie the last unicorn?

    America: We sure can

    - they sure could

  • How we can save what the Goddess gave us everyday, is lost on most people. Humans kill off so many species everyday, that don't have a voice. Hopefully humans figure it out before she tires of us. Just a little love & fantasy could help the world.

  • uuuh....ich habe den Film schon immer geliebt..und den Soundtrack dazu !!!!

  • Comment removed

  • I remember watching this movie so so many times, years ago...

    While i can not remember every single detail of it, one thing that really got me every single time was the fact that Amalthea (unicorn) was so painfully beautiful after becoming a human, & yet she was so sad all of the time...

    Schmendrick loved her so much, but she just somehow couldn't understand any of his feelings; not until the end..

    And so i kept thinking to myself: How can anyone this beautiful even feel sad and lonely..?

    ...

  • The most magical film ever created, I am convinced Unicorns are out there. The song is haunting, it would bring hardcore prisoners to tears!

  • Darn it, how am I suppose to feel Apathetic after hearing that?

  • I have to thank this movie for making me believe such creatures existed, you never know if they do or not.

  • This song and this movie are both truly and utterly beautiful...so very beautiful...

  • When the last eagle flies over the last crumbling mountain

    And the last lion roars at the last dusty fountain

    In the shadow of the forest though she may be old and worn

    They will stare unbelieving at the last unicorn

  • When the first breath of winter through the flowers is icing

    And you look to the north and a pale moon is rising

    And it seems like all is dying and would leave the world to mourn

    In the distance hear the laughter of the last unicorn

    I'm alive, I'm alive

  • When the last moon is cast over the last star of morning

    And the future has passed without even a last desperate warning

    Then look into the sky where through the clouds a path is torn

    Look and see her how she sparkles, it's the last unicorn

    I'm alive, I'm alive

  • yeah me and my dad watched this lol when he first told me about i though he was kidding then we saw it and it was kinda epic.....though i was nine soooooo

  • I used to watch this all the time at my grandmas...

  • Such a beautiful song.

  • thanks god that there are songs that can really touch you

  • I love this movie so much! And, what an amazing band!!! I also cry ever time I watch this movie. I wish that our world was innocent enough to belief in wonders like this.

  • Grew up on this movie. Worn out the tape. =)

  • @JVcrow44 I hear you broda

  • i came here is a moment of nostalgia, to see if anyone truly loves this book/movie the way that I do. I'm do overwhelmingly glad people do!

  • It's really cool watching this video and seeing the Hunt Of The Unicorn tapestries, especially after just reading a book on unicorns that told all about them

  • I watched this movie a long ass time ago. It was an awesome cartoon. I also remember the old Lord of the ring cartoons too! It's a shame there wont be any cartoons made in this style ever again.

  • Gonna see AMERICA tonight in Philadelphia!!!! Yoohoo!!!! It is gonna be a cool drive on Ventura Hwy!!!!

  • the besr song forever i heard♥

  • The last Unicorn is beautiful work of art and the music is breathtakingly haunting...haunting in way that soothes your soul...beautiful for grandness of nature and serene for peace it inspires as you listen and remember the meaning of dreaming when you are a child..The last Unicorn a classic film with a touching soundtrack to our lives

  • I used to watch this movie everyday when I was younger. Brings back so many memories.

  • The Elder Scrolls theme song tunes sound so damn similar to this tune. 

  • Rarity. . .?

    

  • i miss my childhood years this song reminds me of that

  • childhood, come back :(

  • OMG! LIKE LIKE LIKE

  • fapfapfapfapfapfapfap

  • Beautifully Jimmy Webb song, sung by the group America, with Jerry Beckley singing the lead.

  • The animation was done by the same people who did "The Hobbit"

  • This was my favorite movie growing up!

  • nostalgia abounds....

  • Get in the water bitch!

  • This is such a beautiful Masterpiece of Movie AND Sound!!! Lee is self-synchronizing in the GermanVersion!!!!! What a marvellous Actor!!!!!

  • they need to remake this like, YESTERDAY!!!!!

  • @originalcynn No they don't. Why would they remake it when the original is amazing?

  • i havent watched this movie in years, and i still remembered every word of this song

  • @X0X0tiamarie0X0X its a part of you, of anyone who watched it. look at the view c

  • I'm glad they finally got all that Last Unicorn licensing straightened out because now we can finally see a live action movie.

  • @Snapscape i hope they dont screw it up.

  • (badjokemod ON)

    OKEY! let's go hunting...

    ok that one is terrible XD

  • waurm steht da: "Das Letzte Einharn"? wobei doch am anfang Englisch gesprochen wird?

  • love this, used to watch it as a kid at least 3 times a week and the song still gives me shivers now!

  • I met Peter S. Beagle this year.  He gave hints that he may be writing a true sequel at last!

    Not to mention re-doing some of the animation with Studio Ghibli with modern methods.

  • SHE IS THE ONLY UNICORN THERE IS?

    THE LAST?

  • Am I the only person that thinks this is hilarious?

  • Like this if you were shocked that King Haggard was voiced by Count Dooku!

  • @thexenomancer Don't you mean Count Dracula?

  • @DII117 No. I really mean that the voice of King Haggard and the actor for Count Dooku is one and the same person.

  • @thexenomancer Christopher Lee. Did you know he also played Dracula? He's taken on the roll of two Counts on the big screen, lol.

  • @DII117 Not to mention, he was also Saruman the White in LoTR. He's always a bad guy. He just has 'evil dude' voice. :)

  • When the last moon is cast over the last star of morning... and the feature has passed without even a last desperate warning, then look in the sky where through the clouds a path is torn... Look and see her how she sparkles, SHE'S the Last unicorn... ♥

  • love this movie so much, this song gives me chills!

  • @LostInTheShadows100

    I agree it's haunting! Love it!

  • what i also like a lot is how they draw the unicorrn, not just a horse with a horn, as mostly done, but a real unicorn

  • I love this movie and this song ^-^

  • i own this!:3 <3 it

  • esta cancion estan bonita que me hace llorar T.T

  • Rarity IS the Last Unicorn!

  • This brings back memories.

    Awesome, awesome memories.

  • This song always gets me. The Last Unicorn was a beatiful animated movie, and me liking equines (besides wolves), was one of the best films I ever watched as a kid. The other being the animated version of Black Beauty.

  • I get chills every time.

  • My team

  • Why does this song almost bring me tears, Damn. :'( My manly-ness is at stake.

  • @JVcrow44 take some estergine

    

  • @JVcrow44 don't let anybody tell you crying isn't manly. Crying because you can't go see a movie is unmanly, but crying because of a sad song or event is manly (or just human in general)

  • @JVcrow44 Nope. You can shed manly tears over The Last Unicorn. Totally legit.

  • @JVcrow44 Oh god me too.

  • @JVcrow44 What are you talking about? This movie is as manly as a heart tattoo with "mom" scrolled on it!

  • @JVcrow44 Maybe because you, as America the band, can understand the message behind this song. The world is slowly dying, every day we have the chance to save it, but we never do. It's the sad, true story of our doing.

  • @ZataMachi The third law of thermodynamics. Increasing entropy. The Universe is doomed to increasing entropy. All things are thus, nothing anyone could ever do about that.

  • what an amazing movie, the songs and music are excellent, the cast is amazing Alan Arkin, Jeff Bridges, Mia Farrow, Angela Lansbury, Christopher Lee...also i think it is awesome that it is Rankin Bass who produced it, the hobbit, return of the king, flight of dragons, Thunder cats. One of the best fairy tale animation production companies. this movie always makes me feel good, watching it right before i go to sleep makes me feel good, nostalgic, it's a really enchanting story.

  • Long live indi animation!

  • the kenny loggins version is good too.

  • did some1 else notise it no 02:50???

  • macht mich heute noch genauso traurig wie damals

  • 66 people obviously don't believe in unicorns.

  • My mom passed this movie on to me , and i love it , i can't stop watching it and singing this song. ^_^

  • I cannot fathom that one of my favorite movies of all time has the music and lyrics of "The Last Unicorn" by a band I grew up with America... can you say blonde moment? Gosh I feel so (______) go ahead, fill in the blank.

  • one of the best songs ever!

  • I remembered seeing this when I was 5 years old. I was always scared of the Red Bull, and I was always amazed when Amalthea turned into a woman then back into a unicorn. years passed and I hadn't seen the movie, so I forgot most of the details, but I never forgot the unicorn who became a woman. Then after over 13 years, saw a movie on TV called "The Last Unicorn". It seemed familiar so I watched it. That's when it all came rushing back to me!! I loved this movie as a child and I still do!!

  • What I hated the most about this movie was how she turned into a human. Unfortunately, that kind of ruined it for me, but it's a great movie to others. Beautiful art, beautiful music and one pretty unicorn.

  • god i just love the artwork in the song. so beautiful. i love 14th and 15th dentury tapestries.

  • No words can express my Love for this movie <3

  • "The Last Unicorn" just a masterpiece in Music & Artwork. such a great movie.

    BREATHTAKING

  • Holy crap. I used to fall asleep to this song when I was 5! Freakin nostalgia, dog.

  • Don't worry, you still have Princess Celestia.

  • @TheAweDude1 Lol

  • @TheAweDude1

    >yfw she outlives everyone else

    >yfw she outlives all pony civilization

    >yfw because she's immortal, she's forced to wander the world while this song plays in the background

    :_;

  • *tears*

  • You know what...The last time i saw this i was probably like 5 or 6 i cried my eyes out.. and the strange thing is...i still do.. maybe it has to be emotions i felt when i was a kid.. you know when you think back at the good and best time you had when you saw this.. then when i saw this for like 15min ago all of it came back like a HD quality film then my heart opend i smiled and cried... fantastic...and i cried of joy =´)

    -20 years later...and still... =´´(

  • i remember watching this when i was 4 and being so scared of that skeleton guy :')

  • 18yrs later and i can still hear my dad and me singing this when i was 4. how i miss those days T~T

  • love this song soo much <3 this was my favourute movie, an amazing singer best song ever!!

  • for the longest time i forgot about this movie till i saw a music video i wus like i think i remember this and had to look it up now i own it again ^_^

  • One of my favorite movies of all time. It was the last film I saw with my dad and one of my oldest memories. An amazing song.

  • @MrNicMachiavelli Great movie to be the last, don't you think? :)

  • @BumpaNiggl lol yeah

  • i love this movie! i used to sing my heart out to this song. this and walking mans road

  • Ow dem good ol'times...I used to watch this always as a child, believed I watched this like a hundred times

  • @Masherin Yeah i was the same! I'm now 16 and still have fond memories watching this as a kid :)

  • Something about this song sounds hauntingly sad at the beginning. But something nice and peaceful is in it too.

  • this film will stay will always stay with me, i still have the vhs from when i was a kid :)

    this song is my favourite and i know every word lol

  • Has anyone ever read the book? It's a fantasy classic...one of my all-time favorites <3

  • I remember still the heart-wrenching pain this film caused me when I was a kid... It was awfully melancholy for a children's film, but beautiful at the same time. <3 You know it's a great story when you remember the feelings it inspired in you so many years after you last watched it.

  • hehe, i used to watch this with my mom. over and over again... and now that i hear this song, it's all coming back to me. love you, mom :D

  • Oh...I remember my dad taping this on vhs for me to watch when I was little because I loved it so much. I have it on dvd now, and I saw the book in the teen section of Barnes & Nobles and was going to get it, but I didn't have any money and now it's gone.

    Anyway, this was a beautiful movie.

  • I love this song it reminds me of being younger :D

  • This is the earliest memory I have ever had. Thank you for this upload. The first thing in my life that I can remember.

  • 65 people aren't unicorns

  • I fisrt saw this movie when I was very young.

    In fact it may have been the first fantasy film I ever saw.

    More people need to see this, it's just as good now as when I first remember it.

    That ending gets me every time.

    People always seem to say that Rankin Bass animations are pretty low quality when it comes to their hand-drawn stuff but frankly I've always liked that aesthetic of theirs. Those same people always said their movies were no good, they just need to watch this to be corrected.

  • I love this song. My mom use to watch this movie when she was young and got me to watch it when thay remastered it on dvd.

  • I watched this when I was little. I cried at the end of it, and my mum was like, um ok then.

  • Omg the memories...

  • have to pickup the bluray..best version would be with german and english audio .. so used to both versions :-/

  • When the last moon is cast over the last star of morning and the future has passed without event a last desperate warning then look into the sky

  • America's Dan Peek died last Sunday at the age of 60! :-((

  • @shieldwolf49 O.o damn. wow that's kinda young to die isnt it?

  • @makichitani Aye but he left his heart in all o us! ♥

  • btw i only liked it cos my mate doesn't have a youtube account so she can't x lols brittany you fail

  • this is one of those good fantasy films that captures the true essence of fairy tales (not the whitewashed Disney versions)

  • Comment removed

  • @ladycucumberington

    If she had stayed with him she would never have freed the rest of the unicorns and they'd stay trapped forever by the Red Bull and King Haggard.

  • dunno why but I started crying watching this.

    O ised to rent this movie every few weeks when I was 5-6 years old.

  • @NiklasKing87

    my stomach hurts watching this

  • Was alway a favorite as a child, now I watch it with my children.

  • gosh, my whole childhood comes back when i listen to this song

  • When I was a little kid, I got the chicken pox and the only thing that got me and my parents through the night was this movie. I would sit on the couch watching it and as soon as it was over start crying and screeching about being itchy until my dad rewound it and played it again. Now, at 24, it still makes me feel better and helps me sleep when I can't.

  • I've always loved this song...

  • I loved this movie as a child, and I love it as an adult. Listening to this song always gives me shivers. It's a powerful song, and sung with a lot of passion.

  • Unicorns, such amazing creatures. I love this movie and the soundtrack. I also love the animation, it's so unique and well made. Don't get much of that anymore ='(

  • Jeff Bridges and I share birthdays!

  • The opening is really beautiful *O*

  • This movie is beautiful. I remember watching this when I was 4, and remember the emotions it brought inside of me.I remember the REAL story of the Little Mermaid, the tragic one (not the bratty sugar coated disney version), the Secret of Nimh, The Dark Crystal etc. Movies like these treated children with intelligence; as individuals capable of understanding much more than we give them credit for.I have children of my own now, and can't help but notice how 'dumbed down' kids movies are now.

  • This brings back so many memories. i use to like unicorns before i did a speech on them and all unicorns are is killer's. but i still like them and still believe in em.

  • " IM ALIVE" LOl

  • The favorite mitological creature of Lisa Simpson......The unicorn. haha

    I like it too. and the group America.

  • when i first watched way back when, i wasn't too thrilled but now its one of my favorites. i love everything about the movie--the music, the story EVERYTHING!!!!

  • OH no! NO more unicorns! Wait one just hatched in this nest in my tree! YAH! One more unicorn!

  • I grew up watching this... fell in love with this movie... its beautiful beyond words...

  • Let the tears currently rolling silently down my face speak for now. This song and movie is honestly too beautiful for words.

  • I was so happy when I finally got this on DVD! I want the soundtrack SOOO badly.

  • truthfully epic

  • i love this

  • 21 years old and I still love this movie and this song. It's one of the few 'old' movies where the animation doesn't make me want to claw my eyes out. I still cry hearing this song, and have the worst urge to go did the VHS I bought from our closing Blockbusters out of the basement and watch this movie again :')

  • By far, this is best version of this song. The others just don't have the same soul. Course that could just be my childhood talking.

  • Esta pelicula es hermosisima y su cancion es preciosa aunque me entristece el corazon.... La recomiendo para quienes tengan niños es hermosisimo mensaje

  • Esta pelicula es hermosisima y su cancion es preciosa aunque me entristece el corazon.... La recomiendo para quienes tengan niños es hermosisimo mensaje

  • When I was 60 I loved this movie. Now I'm dead and I still love it.

  • I'M ALIVE! I'M AAALLIIIIVVVEEEEEE!!!!!! Yes you are Unicorn, yes you are

  • This song almost makes me want to cry.

    MY CHILDHOOD.

  • like the voice of mr. Lee in the movie

  • @MacMark2 Mr. Lee is a badass

  • I was always so afraid as a 7 year old that the red bull would come and take me and my friends and force us into the seaside... Obviously I thought I was a unicorn :/ I love this film :)

  • @hexinabox same :) i thought he would take me 2 lol

  • when i saw this video at that list at the right, i thought this song was about the last unicorn he ll see because he has to stop smoking drugs

  • Peter S. Beagle, the author of the novel and screenplay for "The Last Unicorn" will be at Anthrocon 2011! On June 23-26!

  • muy buen video y musica... trae muchos recuerdos

  • I used to watch this movie with my grandmother before she died,she loved unicorns

    I have both versions, the redone and the original. I feel the original is best,the redone is weird for me, the voices are high pitched and sound like kids and the film moves too fast, The original everything moved slow and the voices sounded like they should. This was one movie they should have alone, my bro's kids love the redone version, that's why got it, no one but me and the kids can tell the difference

  • i found this difficult to masturbate to...

  • @demonofrazgriz333 Hahahahahahahahahaaha!!!!!!!! pretty good!! I find no offense on your behalf!! & I love "The Last Unicorn"....but thats pretty random & funny!

  • I've seen
