1. Unicorn from the United Kingdom played country and folk rock. They broke up in 1977. Several of the bands album were produced by (and featured contributions by) David Gilmour of Pink Floyd.
2. Unicorn was a progressive melodic rock band from Sweden, fronted by Dan Swanö (Bloodbath, Edge of Sanity, Nightingale). They released two full-length albums (Emotional Wasteland and Ever Since), two EPs (After Before and The Weirdest of Tales), and two demos (A Collection of Worlds I and A Collection of Worlds II).
The band's style was a far cry from the brutal death metal Swano would later become known for. (Swano formed Unicorn as a young teen.) Unicorn is a very melodic, light progressive band. Nightingale comes closest to their style, though even Nightingale is much heavier.
Swano is currently working on a new project called Second Sky. He says Second Sky is the new Unicorn. An album is expected in 2009.

Fight For The Wings
Unicorn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Smiling
Listening to my tale
The Reaper
And judges what you have done
Living
Tell her you deserve
The reward
She'll confer with the still
And listen to the storm
She'll confer with the still
And listen to the sea
Fight for the wings
Till the time you receive
The gift to be free
In life we've got to fight
Stand up and
A hero you'll become
Forever
Remember you my words
And listen to the storm
Remember you my words
And listen the sea
Fight for the wings
Till the time you receive
The gift to be free
Fight for the wings
To deserve in the sky
The secret of flying
Fight for the wings
'cause the battle begins
When you start to live
Fight for the wings
'cause the fight's just begun
And there's no return
Fight…
The gift to be free
You've got to be free
The battle begins
And become a king…
