Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for October 26, 2013

Well, considering the status of Dakota’s hair, I think they should probably be singing this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FdWRsHeV98

Yay! Legwarmers and scarf again!

I prefer Link! He com to town, come to save the princess Zelda! I think its a weird Al song, not 100% sure. Im also reminded of the anime Magical Shopping arcade, they had a gag about the kid playing his own BGM. Also impressed they both no the same song when theres that generation gap. We should take Marigold to a concert . Also I like how they make a big epic quest out of even the small things in life.

Only Marigold is so magnificent as to make leg-warmers STILL look stylish.

NO MORE TWERKING PLEASE

Thank you for this strip, Dana!

Can’t Marigold play background music with her magic?, there are several epic BGM for quests riding a horse, my choises are:

3) The Legend of Zelda main theme2) The Lord of the Rings theme1) Riders of Doom from Conan the Barbarian.

Any ride on a unicorn is by definition a “Quest”.The leg warmers are cute, but the scarf is too narrow to do much good, other than as a fashion accessory.

Dana, I wouldn’t presume to lecture a master, but if I may make one small suggestion:

Adding multtiple ’O’s to a word like ‘body’ in order to extend it, gives the impression that it’s pronounced ‘Boooooo-dy’ ( as in ghost-speak. )

To get around this, in the scribblings that pass for my own wrtiings, I use a phonetic spelling, I.e. Every-Bawwwwwwdy, rock yer Bawwwwwwwdy."

If this is any example, unicorns (especially Marigold) have some particularly strange ideas about questing songs! :D

My first thought was Somewhere Over the Rainbow, but it doesn’t have a good marching beat.

I love the legwarmers.As they approach Dakota’s place, I would suggest the Light World dungeon theme from Link To The Past as BGM.

Good point girls.

I must admit I was thinking something more along the lines of “Star Wars” pomp was what I had in mind for questing. But then, I’ve never really been….

Oh, and….I WANNA KNOW WHAT’S GOING ON WITH DAKOTA!!!!

Holy moly, blast from the (not too distant) past here.

At one time, Simpson would’ve had Felicia singing this.

Yes, I was forgetting that.

Sometimes I wish that comics had audio, so that you could hear (at least in this case) what those fancy fonts sound like. Not to mention appropriate background music. And lordy, how I love those leggings!

Best questing music ever, the overworld theme from Legend of Zelda, especially the remix from Link’s Awakening.
