"A Horse with No Name" is a song by American folk rock trio America. Written by Dewey Bunnell, it was released on the Warner Bros. label, in late 1971 in Europe and early 1972 in the United States. The song was met with commercial success and topped charts in Canada, Finland, and on the US Billboard Hot 100.[5] It reached number 3 in the UK singles chart. It was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on March 24, 1972.[6] The song was quickly added to a rerelease of the bands' debut studio album, America (original release January 1972). The song is a staple of the group's discography and one of their most popular.
