About
"Amazing Horse", also known as "Get on My Horse", is a viral flash animation featuring a man on a horse singing and dancing with a woman about his steed. Since being released by Weebls-Stuff in late 2009, the video has inspired various covers remixes on YouTube.
Origin
On September 29th, 2009, Weebl's Stuff released the animated video on YouTube, where it gathered upwards of 8.7 million views and 8,100 comments over the next eight years.
Look at my horse
My horse is amazing
Give it a lick,
"Ooo, it tastes just like raisins!"
Have a stroke of its mane
It turns into a plane,
And then it turns back again
When you tug on its winkie!
"Ooo, that's dirty!"
Do you think so?
Well, I better not show you
Where the lemonade is made!
Sweet lemonade,
mmmm, sweet lemonade
Sweet lemonade,
Yeah, sweet lemonade
Get on my horse,
I'll take you around the universe
And all the other places too!
I think you'll find
that the universe, pretty much
covers everything!
Shut up woman, get on my horse!
Spread
On October 12th, 2009, the site ShutUpWomanGetOnMyHorse.com was launched, featuring a flash embed of the animation, but did not place ads on the website. That same day, GetOnMyHorse.com was launched, which placed ads around the flash animation video and falsely claimed to be its creator. After discovering the page, Weebl posted the following message in the now defunct Digital Gangster Forums.[2]
Hey Denied.
If you're going to steal my work then don't stick a load of ads on the page because that's just taking the piss.
It's also pretty lame to not even host the file yourself and just leach it from shutupwomangetonmyhorse.com (which has no ads so you know…)
On October 26th, the flash animation was uploaded to Newgrounds.[3] The following day, the animation was awarded the NewGrounds Review Crew Pick, Daily Feature and Weekly 2nd Place. On November 9th, YouTuber Cira Las Vegas uploaded a cover of the song played on an acoustic guitar (shown below, left). On January 13th, 2010, the chuckcardinale YouTube channel uploaded a cover over the song (shown below, right).
On March 5th, 2010, Weebl released a jazz cover of the song, which gathered upwards of 1.7 million views and 1,400 comments over the next seven years (shown below, left). On March 3rd, 2013, YouTuber Canal Nostalgia uploaded a Mario-themed parody of the video (shown below, right).
