America’s self-titled debut album was released initially in Europe, without “A Horse with No Name”, and achieved only moderate success.
Bunnell has explained that “A Horse with No Name” was “a metaphor for a vehicle to get away from life’s confusion into a quiet, peaceful place”.
A desert is a barren area of landscape where little precipitation occurs and, consequently, living conditions are hostile for plant and animal life.
Desert biomes are the driest of all the biomes. In fact, the most important characteristic of a desert is that it receives very little rainfall.
Deserts are arid ecosystems that receive fewer than 25 centimeters (10 inches) of precipitation a year.
A cactus is a member of the plant family Cactaceae, a family comprising about 127 genera with some 1750 known species of the order Caryophyllales. The word cactus derives, through Latin, from the Ancient Greek word κάκτος, a name originally used by Theophrastus for a spiny plant whose identity is now not certain.
Cacti are succulent perennial plants. Cacti generally have thick herbaceous or woody chlorophyll-containing stems.
