Once upon a time there was a horse, living in a humble town and a comfortable barn, the horse was happy. Well, happy was a strong word. Most would call him content. He made a good living, had good friends, and loved his community. But something was missing. The horse wanted more. He wanted to pursue his dream in music and start a band. So he began playing solos on his guitar in local bars. One day, a sheep came up to him after one of his performances and began talking to him about his interests in music. The horse was impressed, and asked him to play the tuba with him. So they began playing together. Soon, they met the cow, pig, and chicken, who quickly joined the band. The cow played the piano, the pig played the accordion, and the chicken sang.

Everyday, they performed and their crowd gradually grew. One day, after an amazing performance, a representative of a record label came up to them. He offered to give them a job and said they would go on tour as an opening act. They were shocked, but excited.

So they went on tour. Crowds loved them, and they often overshadowed the main act. On apps like Spotify and Apple Music, their songs were blowing up. And their fame only grew. Over this time, the horse, sheep, cow, pig, and chicken had become great friends, but, as many band members do, they began to fight. One day, they were offered another chance for a tour. They had done many of these, but were told this one would be the biggest. Everyone in the band except the horse wanted to go. He was too tired. Tired of working constantly. Tired of fighting. So he refused to join them. They all begged him to go on that trip, telling him it would be an amazing experience. But he wouldn't. So off they went to the first stop of the tour in the band's big private jet without him.

The next morning, the horse picked up the newspaper and read that days headline: "Animal Band Killed In Tragic Plane Crash." The horse didn't believe it. He couldn't. Thoughts rushed through his head. He could have been there. He should have died. Why should he live when they die? Did he even want to live? All his friends were dead. This went on for hours, until the horse couldn't take it anymore. He opened up his drawer, took out several bottles of pills, and choked everything down. Then he walked into a bar, ready to drown his sorrow in liquor. Suddenly, looking at the horse, the bartender says to him, "Why the long face?"
