*Horse Knocked Me Down: The Incident*
It was a sunny afternoon in London, Spring ‘66, and Astral Society was taking a break from their whirlwind tour to enjoy the city. Shelly "Starlight" Winters was leading the way, her tambourine in hand and a song in her heart. The band was laughing, joking, and soaking up the swinging vibes of the city—until chaos came galloping their way.
As they strolled down the street, a policewoman on horseback trotted past. The horse, a massive beast with hooves like thunder and eyes like fire, seemed calm at first. But then, for no goddamn reason, it reared up, snorted like a demon, and charged straight at Shelly. She tried to calm it with a soulful rendition of "Wild Horses," but the horse wasn’t having it. It barreled into her like a f*cking linebacker, sending her flying into a fruit cart.
The cop just laughed, tipping her hat and saying, “He’s got hell in his soul!” Meanwhile, the band watched in shock as the horse snorted, reared again, and trotted off like it had just won the Kentucky Derby. Shelly, lying in the dirt with oranges rolling around her, shouted, “Your horse is a menace, a f*cking beast!” But the cop just smirked and said, “He’s got flair, sweetie. Flair to spare.”
That night, back at their dingy London flat, Shelly picked up her guitar and started strumming. “Horse knocked me down like a fucking linebacker…” she sang, and the band joined in, turning the absurd incident into their biggest hit. By the Summer of ‘67, "Horse Knocked Me Down (Like a F*cking Linebacker!)" was blasting from radios everywhere, and Astral Society was forever known as the band that got taken out by a horse.
As for the horse? Rumor has it it’s still out there, galloping through the streets of London, looking for its next victim. 🐴🎸✨
