We Are One by Animal Farm

Like Aesop’s Fables, the message of the family music band, Animal Farm, is all about bringing people together through the use of animal characters – whether it’s something humorous like a baby bat who is afraid of the dark or something more serious like a monkey witnessing deforestation. Their songs are focused on our shared humanity.

Comments from our music judge:

“On We Are One, Animal Farm has assembled a marvelous menagerie of songs about animals – which probably isn’t a surprise considering the band’s name. These songs, however, aren’t your typical little ditties about lions, tigers, and snakes. There are imaginative tunes about an awesome possum and a two-headed tortoise. “Snow Bird” actually is about a penguin who longs to fly, while “Nocturnal Me” concerns a bat with a fear of the dark. Then, there’s the delightful “Ear Worm,” a funny, hummable number about getting a song stuck in your head. We Are One, in fact, is stocked with many songs that will stick in your head. “
