Horses Mesmerized by Man Playing ‘Blackbird’ on Guitar

A man sat in a field playing ‘Blackbird’ by The Beatles on his guitar, and the horses nearby couldn’t resist coming over to listen.

This sweet video shows an young man sitting in an open field with his guitar and microphone. He starts playing ‘Blackbird,’ that lovely Beatles song we all know. Several horses are grazing in the same field, just minding their own business.

Then something wonderful happens. One horse hears the music and stops eating. The big animal walks straight toward the man playing guitar. You can tell the horse is curious about where this pretty sound is coming from.

But wait, it gets even better. A second horse notices what’s happening and decides to join in. This one gets much closer than the first horse.

The animal actually puts its face right next to the man’s mouth, trying to figure out how he’s making such beautiful music. Both horses just stand there, calm as can be, like they’re the best audience this musician ever had.

The man keeps playing, and those horses keep listening. They don’t wander off or get distracted. They stay right there, enjoying every note.
