This song doesn't have as much impact without the emotional context of the rest of the episode. I can understand why people recommended it, but I disagree that it's worth hearing outside of the episode. Personally, I'm much more excited that Discord is on your list! I just hope you'll listen to the original by Odyssey Eurobeat or the remix by The Living Tombstone before any other remix or cover.
It has, honestly though there are better songs in the mlp universe he would probably like better. Still it was the first good song and will always have a special place for me.
She's my favorite one just because of her voice. It's so relaxing and elegant at the same time. Not to mention she have sings my favorite songs from the show.
Rarity, I think, has the best singing voice of the entire cast. Whenever they do a song and they get to her solo part, it's like the most dramatic and inspirational part of the entire song! I think the writers picked up on that too and they use that dramatic focus to their advantage.
@@Obi-Wan_Kenobi Exactly!! That’s why Rarity was always one of my favs. And I also think that the fact that Rarity is the most dramatic out of all of them really just makes it feel so authentic or something…. Idk how to explain how it but yea, something like that
This is one of my favourite songs and my favourite season finale. If you want some context, Twilight (purple/lavender pony with the crown) got an unfinished spell from her teacher to solve. She tried to cast the spell and thought nothing happened. The next day, she realised that the spell mixed up all her friends' cutie marks, and messed with their memories of who their true selves are. Cutie marks symbolize each pony's special talent (best I can explain it). Twilight then had to figure out how to fix everything, and the solution was to re-introduce each friend to their specific talent by helping the friend with the wong talent (hope this makes sense). This caused the friend to remember their true self and regain their correct cutie mark.
Fun fact, Rebecca Sochiet, the voice of Sunset Shimmer in Equestria Girls, is Twilight's singing voice and you can kinda hear it at the beginning of this song 😆
Please keep in mind that these are songs more to tell the story. The talent these people have is incredible. Not everyone can sound like someone else while SINGING. Twilight's singing voice actress is NOT her speaking one. And it's actually a HUGE world with tons of lore. Watching the show makes the song better too. Since they're part of a story it's more meaningful and can be appreciated further and deeper when you know the full story.
In truth “true true friend” It’s actually part of a trilogy of songs, “What my cutie mark is telling me” and “I have to find a way” come before a true true friend. And actually seem to complement each other to form a roller coaster. I would strongly recommend watching what my cutie mark is telling me and I have to find a way back to back. (and maybe re-watch true true friend afterwards) to see the true impact of the songs really. The first one is more funny showing the absurdity of the situation, The second one then hits you with just hope that the situation actually is and makes you feel bad that you were laughing before, That way so this song comes around and adds a little extra punch in seeing everything getting fixed.
Did you already react to Pinkie Pie's personal song? It's amazing! It's called "Smile" and, just like the title, it is capable of putting a smile on our faces. You will love it. Andrea Libman (her voice actress) really has a great singing voice.
Actually, Shannon Chan-Kent voices singing Pinkie. Andrea couldn't sing as Pinkie because it was hard to her throat, but she voices all singning Fluttershy songs
@@mnmnflr Oh, right... It's just I knew Andrea was a great singer, because... Well, because of Fluttershy (I just loved the episode Filli Vanilli) and Smile is such a great song. Oh well, maybe this comment will inspire him to also react to Flutershy's songs.
I don't blame him this song is way too childish compared to other mlp songs. There are dozens and dozens of better mlp songs out there, both official songs and fanmade ones. I don't know why people recommended this so early while there are still so many great songs left for him to react to
@@Infinite-sj9mj Personal opinion of course, so this isn't me being a jerk and saying, "You're wrong on the internet!" -- but this is one of my favourite songs of the entire G4 franchise. Maybe only "Shine Like Rainbows" definitely comes ahead of it; it's about level with the likes of "Smile" and "This Day Aria". Yes, it's quite a simple song even compared to other earlyish songs like "This Day Aria", _but_ for me, and again only an opinion, "A True, True Friend" is the song that best sums up what FiM is all about. _However_ I do think this song doesn't have its maximum emotional impact unless you're familiar with the series; otherwise you lose the effects of touches like the fragment of "Art of the Dress" and Pinkie's straight mane. Fan songs? Well, yes. They're not constrained by the various demands of a large multinational company that wants to sell plastic toys, a weekly 22-minute running time and a TV-Y rating. So it would be a surprise if some of those _weren't_ a bit deeper and more complex than any of the songs we've seen on the show.
@@Loganberrybunny Oh don't get me wrong this song isn't bad and I completely respect your opinion. But as you said, you should've watched the show to enjoy this song. If I have to recommend a mlp song to a person who has never watched the show like David, I wouldn't exactly recommend this one. Mabye something with better vocals with a more interesting melody
@@Infinite-sj9mj No worries, that's a completely reasonable position and it's a fair point. I don't know where this would come if I wasn't familiar with the show, but _definitely_ lower than it does for me in reality.
Rainbow dash (the blue pegasus with rainbow main) doesn't sing a lot, but her voice is really great and underrated (in my opinion). "I'll Fly" and "Do it on my Own" are two songs i like with her (the first is a solo ; the second a trio with also interesting voices)
"Do it on my own" is HIGHLY underrated. That song hits differently, more relatable/personal to a lot of people. I wish people could appreciate it more.
Also with Musescript's sequel/reprise to "I'll fly", "Lost" used, for her very first audio drama The Hearts Shell, which is AMAZING AND IS A TEAR JEARKER!! DEFINITELY HIGHLY RECCOMEND!!! Its based around Rainbow Dash and her pet Tank the tortise. Also, Musescript voices **ALL** of the mane 6 **INCLUDING** Rainbow Dash!!!! SAME WITH HER SEQUEL AUDIO DRAMA, THE COLOR GODDES!! THE LAST EPISODE, EPISODE 10 WILL BE REALISED SOMETIME IN OCTOBER!!!! THERE IS GOING TO BE AN EPIC BATTLE SCENE!!

SO AMAZING!!!! 💖✨
God! You need to react to the MLP movie songs. Or at least others from show like: 1. I'll fly 2. Smile 3. A better way to be bad 4. The pony i want to be 2. A Changeling can change. Just for example
@@aura_flower3385 "i'll fly" is the song that Dashie sing when she try to stop the winter. Those are some of my favorites. My top 3 are Babs Seed, how the magic of friendship grow, and You'll play your part. Edit: flawless is 4th, but still being of my favs
So, this song is pretty much a perfect summation of the entire show, just in your face, unabashed wholesome Power of Friendship! Largly due to the episode it was in having been written under the assumption this would be the series finale. For more in the "We are being wholesome and cheery and you can't stop us!" selection, The Smile Song!
Ah "A True, True Friend" one of the most memorable songs from both "Magical Mystery Cure" and in the whole entire series...as always this reaction was awesome dude!!!
Woo! Been waiting for some more Mlp. I highly suggest “You’ll Play Your Part” next, I’m actually surprised you haven’t listened to it yet based on all the comments I see!
The harmonies are just SO good, the show in general is, so much so that it physically hurts when people reject the show based on their bias because they're missing out on a lot of fun things lol The show honestly has everything I could ever want, and I am not ashamed to say that it's my favorite show :)
I always love how applejack sings that line to with the "alooooot" line to. I felt that was the most volume her VA has used in a song and a song. She carried the note really well.
A fun song I think he would love to react to is from the 4th equestria girls special. The song is the Legend of Everfree. Its got a munford and sons vibe.
I just noticed that the music changes and adds sounds every time a new pony starts singing and it tends to represent their personalities: Twilight/fluttershy: the guitar base (although with Fluttershy I hear a kind of synthesizer sound in the background) Rainbow Dash: cool drums Rarity: epic orchestra violins (or cord instruments) Applejack: banjo Pinkie Pie: tingling sound in the background + choir (it reminds me of the Smile Song) + wraps it all together No wonder I like it so much. Each instrument is present after it's added and contributes to the Harmony as a way to represent the... well, power of harmony
So the thing with the instruments, is that in big group songs like this one, each character will have a sort of style to their verses, or when they get introduced, an instrument that represents them will join in. A much better example of the practice is probably "We Got this(together)" from the Movie, or the final song "The magic of friendship grows" where you can hear the instruments change as each character sings. Season 3 is about where Hasbro really started to try and go for Disney stylings with the horse music, especially after the success of This Day Aria from the seasons 2 finale, and it really shows in some of the numbers, especially during the movie, where numbers like Capper Dapperpaws' "I'm the friend you need" or Pinkie Pie's "One Small Thing" try to invoke feelings and imagery akin to "Never had a friend like me" or "Under the sea" If you want some more horse music before the big shift, try anything from Season 1 or Season 2 pre- This Day Aria Stuff like Giggle at the Ghosties, Winter Wrap Up, Art of the Dress, At the Gala, Smile Smile Smile, The Perfect Stallion, Find a Pet... That said, a good one from the season three two part premier is probably The Failure Song, and The Success Song. Also the song almost immediately preceding True True Friend, Find a way. But the full version, not the show version.
Hey, would you ever consider reacting to the Prince of Egypt track? If you haven't heard of it before, the first song is Deliver Us and it's honestly one of the most beautifully animated Dreamworks movies out there! It took the team 2 years to animate a specific scene.
As someone else probably mentioned, Pinkie's "Smile, Smile, Smile" is a fun one, and the second song I recommend here should only be listened to after that one: "The Goof Off."
If you're going into more MLP stuff. I highly recommend two back to back being "It's a Spectacle" (~1 min long) followed by "The Magic Inside" (~2 mins long). They follow the story of a young celebrity singer breaking free from her sleazy producer with the help of her old childhood friend. The two songs are designed to be polar opposites in production style. Plus, I think you'd find it fun to know auto-tune is canon in the universe lol.
This one episode had seven songs. Also if you do Equestria Girls Unleash the Magic, make sure you get the longer version so you can see the epic stuff that happens after the song.
Would you consider reacting to some songs from the Starkid musical Black Friday? My personal favorite songs from it are “Feast or Famine”, “Made in America” and “Do you want to play?”
Ashley Ball, the voice actor for Rainbow Dash and Apple Jack has a professional career as the lead singer in a band called Hey Ocean! The other characters usually have other voice actors that take over the singing roles in most cases, but the original voice actors take the opportunity when they can. Ashley Ball is the only one that does 100% both.
I'm going to pick "Say Goodbye to the Holiday" to be my main suggestion. I like a lot of MLP songs, but I'm most interested in your reaction to this one. Aside from it being a good song, there was a musically inclined MLP reactor (no longer on TH-cam :c) who really praised this song. He might have been biased because it had his favorite chord progression or something (I'm not great at music theory), so I'm interested in your take on it.
You're right! It is like It's A Small World. I can't say I'm a big MLP fan, but my friend who is enjoyed this video! I'm going to continue asking for you to react to Nightwish's Ghost Love Score (2013 Wacken), though!
While I've referred all the songs at once from the Dickens pony retelling "A Hearth's Warming Tail" before, if you must choose one to react to first, I suppose the bombastic villain number "Say Goodbye to the Holiday" is as good as any. 😉
I recommend you listen to Fly like you - by Wasteland Wailers (ft. Brittany Church) Its an mlp fan song based on the Fallout Equestria novel by KKat. its an amazing song and there are two versions of it. (the swing) version is my favorite, but there's another version that is accompanied by a really awesome animation from BenchThiefProductions.
That is a good song. I never really noticed the banjo in the background until you pointed it out. Could you maybe react to Equestria Girls songs "My Past Is Not Today", "Dance Magic" and "The Midnight In Me".
Hey David, I would really love it if you gave more insight into music theory in reactions. Like when you reacted to "Welcome to the Show," you talked about how in "Open Up Your Eyes" its not melodically interesting to do what the root note is doing. I want to hear more stuff like that. Instead of "I do or don't like this," I want to _why_ from a musical standpoint.
Little may he know that this moment in the show was a monumental transformation for every main character as the series took a turning point, especially for the crowned one.
If you like true true friend, you might also like: pinkie's smile song and applejack's raise this barn song. One might say they're a CONFRONTATION of different styles (...d'ya see what i did there?)
this just makes me feel nostalgic because not only is this the beginning of Twilight's princess journey, but I also remember that I used to replay this song for a week when I was 12, I couldn't get enough of it.
Ooo I think one you would love is Luna's Future from the Hearth's Warming special. Really any of the spirits' songs in there were rad, but Luna's Future has a militaristic tone with the snare in the background and it's lovely.
I don't think this is one of the best songs from the show, but you really need to listen "feed me with your heart" by ponyphonic and "good girl" 4everfreebrony version with all the mares
I loved this song as a kid. It was my favourite and I'd replay it over and over again because it fills me with so much joy and nostalgia when the mane six remembers who they are.
Just a bit of info regarding the song and episode it's from: The episode is called Magical Mystery Cure (a play on The Beatles' Magical Mystery Tour) and was the Season 3 finale (initially planned to be the show's series finale but the show's popularity refused to let that be the end), as well as one of the first episodes that was a full on musical, featuring 6 songs in 22 minutes (one of which being a reprise). In the episode, Twilight Sparkle accidentally casts an unfinished spell that switches the cutie marks (the markings on a pony's flank that signifies their special talent or identity) of her 5 friends. This song is part of the 4th movement of the episode (out of 6) where she finds the cure in that they simply need to be reminded of their place in Equestria and at the moment they have that revelation, they are given their Element of Harmony (a gem full of power, each of which is activated by a specific element of friendship; i.e, Honesty, Generosity, Loyalty, Kindness, Laughter, and Magic). Though this appears to be a finale-type song, this isn't even the last or second-to-last song. After this, she realises how to complete the original spell and...something special happens. That's all I'll say for now.
other my little pony songs you should react to: pinkies lament out on my own got the music in you spirit of hearths warming past better ways to be bad make this castle a home hope shines eternal stand for everfree midnight in me shine like rainbows spirit of hearths warming future spirit of hearths warming present invisible we’ve come so far unleash the magic
Hey, huge kudos to you for actually doing something _productive_ when doing the reacts, unlike... 99% of the people doing them, really. Even that you bother to pick up the guitar and figure out the chords singles you out immensely, compared to... well, damn many, I'd say.
I have a good feeling you're absolutely love the piano melody and raw vocals in "I'm just a pony" Oh and the messages from these songs/show yeah they may be aimed at kids/teens but they are powerful life lessons for any age group, I always felt at peace watching this show at the end of a long difficult day 😌
One of my fav songs in the series is You'll play your part its a good one you should listen to it also A True True friend is one of my favs in the series
I suggest listening to Midnight In Me from the MLP:FIM movie Legend Of Everfree. It’s short (like only a minute long) but it’s good. It’s about human Twilight (not the same one from the first 2 Equestria Girls movies) being in inner turmoil about her spill personality Midnight Sparkle/Midnight Twilight/Midnight (which appears for a short time in the previous movie Friendship Games) trying to keep her magic inside in fear of Midnight coming out and taking control. :3
Some important context: this was part of a musical episode, the finale of the third season. It's song #4 out of 6 (with one reprise) in a 22 minute cartoon.
Maybe you've already heard music from this musical so it wouldn't be much of a reaction, but I'd love to see some reactions to songs from Phantom of the Opera. The titular theme would be a good start if diving into music from that musical.

Please do AJR Karma, Humpty Dumpty, and 3 o clock things. This is Day 7 of requesting AJR 😁
can you please react to alice of human sacrifices plsss?
Well now you got to do all the MLP songs like: "Smile", "Winter Wrap Up", and all the others.
My friend hooman, i suggest the episode this music is from (Magical Mystery Cure) it's a impactful episode that changed brony culture across the globe
A staple in the MLP fandom has always been “Winter Wrap-Up”. Quite frankly, I’m surprised it hasn’t been recommended already.
It has, honestly though there are better songs in the mlp universe he would probably like better. Still it was the first good song and will always have a special place for me.
that one is fantastic
There may be better songs... but nothing can replace Winter Wrap Up.
A true true fact.
so much so it used to be a tradition for Mlp TH-camrs to sing it at 2k
I always did like when Rarity came in with her part. A really nice song overall.
I like it too, rarity just has that tone that's addictive to me
She's my favorite one just because of her voice. It's so relaxing and elegant at the same time. Not to mention she have sings my favorite songs from the show.
I agree

@Kevnev Katfute i remember the drama, i was nine and cannot remember for the life of me what MY opinion was but jesus I Remember The Drama
Fun fact, Rebecca Sochiet, the voice of Sunset Shimmer in Equestria Girls, is Twilight's singing voice and you can kinda hear it at the beginning of this song 😆
And I'm pretty sure she does all the voices in the helo pinkie videos, you can kinda figure it out in the twilight episodes
I can always hear Sunset when Twilight is singing
wait what? i heard it a little in the beginning but i’m so confused lol
Wow you're right! That short solo from Twilight at the beginning before Fluttershy joins in just sounds like Sunset to me. I can't unhear it now!
*_- Yeah, when I heard her sing lower I thought it sounded familiar._*
Please keep in mind that these are songs more to tell the story. The talent these people have is incredible. Not everyone can sound like someone else while SINGING. Twilight's singing voice actress is NOT her speaking one. And it's actually a HUGE world with tons of lore. Watching the show makes the song better too.

In truth “true true friend”
It’s actually part of a trilogy of songs, “What my cutie mark is telling me” and “I have to find a way” come before a true true friend.
And actually seem to complement each other to form a roller coaster.
I would strongly recommend watching what my cutie mark is telling me and I have to find a way back to back. (and maybe re-watch true true friend afterwards) to see the true impact of the songs really.
The first one is more funny showing the absurdity of the situation,
The second one then hits you with just hope that the situation actually is and makes you feel bad that you were laughing before,
That way so this song comes around and adds a little extra punch in seeing everything getting fixed.

"Art of the dress". "In my head like a catchy song". "In our town". All good mlp songs i'd reccomend. Each a bit different
Most people in the MLP community will remember the “Count of Monte Christo” animatics by Ink Pots. Let’s get it on the list guys.
Rainbow dash (the blue pegasus with rainbow main) doesn't sing a lot, but her voice is really great and underrated (in my opinion). "I'll Fly" and "Do it on my Own" are two songs i like with her (the first is a solo ; the second a trio with also interesting voices)

God! You need to react to the MLP movie songs.
Or at least others from show like:
1. I'll fly
2. Smile
3. A better way to be bad
4. The pony i want to be
2. A Changeling can change.
Just for example
Finally someone else asks for better way to be bad! I also agree with all of these suggestions. I just don’t remember what I’ll fly is.
@@aura_flower3385 "i'll fly" is the song that Dashie sing when she try to stop the winter.
Those are some of my favorites. My top 3 are Babs Seed, how the magic of friendship grow, and You'll play your part.
Edit: flawless is 4th, but still being of my favs
Smile HD
I really love a better way to be bad
Smile is good, but for the love of all things good in this world, NOT Smile HD...
So, this song is pretty much a perfect summation of the entire show, just in your face, unabashed wholesome Power of Friendship! Largly due to the episode it was in having been written under the assumption this would be the series finale.
For more in the "We are being wholesome and cheery and you can't stop us!" selection, The Smile Song!
Exactly! It’s so pure and full of love between friends who care about each other, definitely the essence of what made MLP: FiM such a great show!
So many memories man... this song is so nostalgic to me
Can I suggest May the Best Pet Win if we’re doing MLP songs now? It’s incredibly fun and catchy - ten years later, I still know the words by heart.
This one does make me smile
I remember every mlp song the sad thing is there won’t be anymore from this generation :(
Ah "A True, True Friend" one of the most memorable songs from both "Magical Mystery Cure" and in the whole entire series...as always this reaction was awesome dude!!!
It's those moments when you start singing that make me be like "holy shiit he has a nice voice"
Woo! Been waiting for some more Mlp. I highly suggest “You’ll Play Your Part” next, I’m actually surprised you haven’t listened to it yet based on all the comments I see!
I really love that song.
It tells a lot about the main character and its so beautifull. It's an amazing song.
He hasn't.. its my favorite MLP song and I really want him to hear it. It's gorgeous
He did?
@@hihi-of4us He did *now* yep! He hadn't at the time of this comment, it's 3 months old xD
@@midnightwolf_13 well the you'll play your part reaction vid he made was also 3 months ago so I assumed it was at the same time lol
A really good MLP song is Unleash the Magic from the third Equestria Girls movie, The Friendship Games!
Omg I remember when this episode aired, this song has so many memories attached to it.
The harmonies are just SO good, the show in general is, so much so that it physically hurts when people reject the show based on their bias because they're missing out on a lot of fun things lol
The show honestly has everything I could ever want, and I am not ashamed to say that it's my favorite show :)
I always love how applejack sings that line to with the "alooooot" line to. I felt that was the most volume her VA has used in a song and a song. She carried the note really well.
A fun song I think he would love to react to is from the 4th equestria girls special. The song is the Legend of Everfree. Its got a munford and sons vibe.
There's no lyrics but I'd LOVE to see your reaction to the Cello Dubstep from Octavia and DJ Pony. Talk about a weird but fascinating piece of music
I just noticed that the music changes and adds sounds every time a new pony starts singing and it tends to represent their personalities:
Twilight/fluttershy: the guitar base (although with Fluttershy I hear a kind of synthesizer sound in the background)
Rainbow Dash: cool drums
Rarity: epic orchestra violins (or cord instruments)
Applejack: banjo
Pinkie Pie: tingling sound in the background + choir (it reminds me of the Smile Song) + wraps it all together
No wonder I like it so much. Each instrument is present after it's added and contributes to the Harmony as a way to represent the... well, power of harmony
MLP Flawless... enough said
Yes!! That's one of my favorite mlp songs 😁😁
You should react to "Friend You Need" from MLP! It has a really good beat!
Edit: Or Magic Inside by MLP
Friendship through the ages is one of my favorites
Definitely underrated
So the thing with the instruments, is that in big group songs like this one, each character will have a sort of style to their verses, or when they get introduced, an instrument that represents them will join in.
A much better example of the practice is probably "We Got this(together)" from the Movie, or the final song "The magic of friendship grows" where you can hear the instruments change as each character sings.
Season 3 is about where Hasbro really started to try and go for Disney stylings with the horse music, especially after the success of This Day Aria from the seasons 2 finale, and it really shows in some of the numbers, especially during the movie, where numbers like Capper Dapperpaws' "I'm the friend you need" or Pinkie Pie's "One Small Thing" try to invoke feelings and imagery akin to "Never had a friend like me" or "Under the sea"
If you want some more horse music before the big shift, try anything from Season 1 or Season 2 pre- This Day Aria
Stuff like Giggle at the Ghosties, Winter Wrap Up, Art of the Dress, At the Gala, Smile Smile Smile, The Perfect Stallion, Find a Pet...
That said, a good one from the season three two part premier is probably The Failure Song, and The Success Song.
Also the song almost immediately preceding True True Friend, Find a way. But the full version, not the show version.
Could you react to Celestria's Balled next? It takes place basically immediately after this.
I suggested that before too
Yesss! That song is so beautiful!
I was wondering if you might consider reacting to the song flawless from mlp
Flawless is my favourite song from mlp
Hey, would you ever consider reacting to the Prince of Egypt track? If you haven't heard of it before, the first song is Deliver Us and it's honestly one of the most beautifully animated Dreamworks movies out there! It took the team 2 years to animate a specific scene.
Woah, seriously?! What scene?!
@@darkrose7774 It's based on the book of Exodus and the story of Moses, and the scene is where he splits the red sea.
@@googleitlol6590 yeah, that scene is gorgeous! I've always wondered how they me it look so real! SFM animation
Cool, maybe you could hear We Will Stand For Everfree, the voice is very amazing!
Aaahh I love that song! Top tier villain song 👌
Wishing he'd watched "What my cutie mark is telling me" first, for context
As someone else probably mentioned, Pinkie's "Smile, Smile, Smile" is a fun one, and the second song I recommend here should only be listened to after that one: "The Goof Off."
As much as I like seeing your reactions to songs I actually know, I hope you don't feel pressured into reacting to so much MLP.
If you're going into more MLP stuff. I highly recommend two back to back being "It's a Spectacle" (~1 min long) followed by "The Magic Inside" (~2 mins long). They follow the story of a young celebrity singer breaking free from her sleazy producer with the help of her old childhood friend. The two songs are designed to be polar opposites in production style. Plus, I think you'd find it fun to know auto-tune is canon in the universe lol.
If you're on the my little pony high then I would recommend the magic inside from the Coloratura episode. Its so beautiful
Could you react to raise this barn? Its my favorite MLP song.
This is why i love mlp:). It just gives you such a warm fuzzy feeling and it's realy nice when you have had alot of stressful days/weeks.
This one episode had seven songs.
Also if you do Equestria Girls Unleash the Magic, make sure you get the longer version so you can see the epic stuff that happens after the song.
You should react to Deedee Magno hall’s cover of she used to be mine
Would you consider reacting to some songs from the Starkid musical Black Friday? My personal favorite songs from it are “Feast or Famine”, “Made in America” and “Do you want to play?”
YOOOOOOO I LOVE STARKID :O!!!
You really have to do Pinkies "Smile Song" to get her reference in this song now!
I'd love to see a reaction to Apples to the Core of My Little Pony. It's one of my personal favorites
You have to listen to the magic of friendship grows.
Ashley Ball, the voice actor for Rainbow Dash and Apple Jack has a professional career as the lead singer in a band called Hey Ocean! The other characters usually have other voice actors that take over the singing roles in most cases, but the original voice actors take the opportunity when they can. Ashley Ball is the only one that does 100% both.
I'm going to pick "Say Goodbye to the Holiday" to be my main suggestion. I like a lot of MLP songs, but I'm most interested in your reaction to this one. Aside from it being a good song, there was a musically inclined MLP reactor (no longer on TH-cam :c) who really praised this song. He might have been biased because it had his favorite chord progression or something (I'm not great at music theory), so I'm interested in your take on it.
One of my favourite MLP Songs has been "Bab Seed" so I'd love to see you react to that. :)
Just hearing this song again after so many years made me burst into tears. So nostalgic of simpler times 😭
A Kirin Tale! and do research on the backstory of it, the story involving the song and VA singing it is really great!
The songs in this episode were pretty good, my favorite was the very short "Oh Why", there's an extended version somewhere on TH-cam
You should react to I’d rather be me with you from Steven Universe. He even uses a guitar
THE NOSTALGIA😭💖
Ikrrr 😭
This is one of the most feel good songs in MLP, the entire show had some truly diverse and good music
You're right! It is like It's A Small World. I can't say I'm a big MLP fan, but my friend who is enjoyed this video!
I'm going to continue asking for you to react to Nightwish's Ghost Love Score (2013 Wacken), though!
Forgot my online classes! This is more important!!!
❤️
Pinkie Pie's theme song, "Smile". It's an earworm and a half.
While I've referred all the songs at once from the Dickens pony retelling "A Hearth's Warming Tail" before, if you must choose one to react to first, I suppose the bombastic villain number "Say Goodbye to the Holiday" is as good as any. 😉
I love a hearths warming tale. My fav song from the episode is Seeds of the Past.
If you’re doing more MLP, you need to do smile, I’ll Fly, and The End of the Rainbow. Those are some of my favorites.
I recommend you listen to Fly like you - by Wasteland Wailers (ft. Brittany Church) Its an mlp fan song based on the Fallout Equestria novel by KKat. its an amazing song and there are two versions of it. (the swing) version is my favorite, but there's another version that is accompanied by a really awesome animation from BenchThiefProductions.
"You should listen to "I'm just your problem" cover by Ashe. The guitar in there is wonderful. Also, love when you do your ratings."
That is a good song. I never really noticed the banjo in the background until you pointed it out. Could you maybe react to Equestria Girls songs "My Past Is Not Today", "Dance Magic" and "The Midnight In Me".
Hey David, I would really love it if you gave more insight into music theory in reactions. Like when you reacted to "Welcome to the Show," you talked about how in "Open Up Your Eyes" its not melodically interesting to do what the root note is doing. I want to hear more stuff like that. Instead of "I do or don't like this," I want to _why_ from a musical standpoint.
Little may he know that this moment in the show was a monumental transformation for every main character as the series took a turning point, especially for the crowned one.
Ooh, this song gave me such positive nostalgia!
If you like true true friend, you might also like: pinkie's smile song and applejack's raise this barn song.
One might say they're a CONFRONTATION of different styles (...d'ya see what i did there?)
Can you please react to “The other side”(cover by Annapantsu).The original is from “The Greatest Showman” :)
5:36 Pinkie got you! :)
Thank you for reacting! I know it can be weird be we appreciate it!
I request:
Winter Wrap Up
Smile (NOT FAN MADE WARNING)
My Past is not today
These are some of my favorites (mlp)
*Winter Wrap-Up appears*
My brain: WINTER WRAP-UP WINTER WRAP-UUUUUPP-
this just makes me feel nostalgic because not only is this the beginning of Twilight's princess journey, but I also remember that I used to replay this song for a week when I was 12, I couldn't get enough of it.
I totally did not just hum the entire song before clicking.. what?
Can't wait for more mlp music from you 😁
This takes me back.🥰
♡ hope shines eternal pls?
Ooo I think one you would love is Luna's Future from the Hearth's Warming special. Really any of the spirits' songs in there were rad, but Luna's Future has a militaristic tone with the snare in the background and it's lovely.
I don't think this is one of the best songs from the show, but you really need to listen "feed me with your heart" by ponyphonic and "good girl" 4everfreebrony version with all the mares
One of my Fav songs is "stand for everfree" im always bias toward Villain songs and this is one of my favs in the Pony musical library. :)
I loved this song as a kid. It was my favourite and I'd replay it over and over again because it fills me with so much joy and nostalgia when the mane six remembers who they are.
Smile and The Magic Inside are really good songs, I recommend them
When applejack starts singing her part you can understand what’s happening in the episode.
Your It's a Small World joke made me laugh so hard.
Just a bit of info regarding the song and episode it's from:
The episode is called Magical Mystery Cure (a play on The Beatles' Magical Mystery Tour) and was the Season 3 finale (initially planned to be the show's series finale but the show's popularity refused to let that be the end), as well as one of the first episodes that was a full on musical, featuring 6 songs in 22 minutes (one of which being a reprise). In the episode, Twilight Sparkle accidentally casts an unfinished spell that switches the cutie marks (the markings on a pony's flank that signifies their special talent or identity) of her 5 friends. This song is part of the 4th movement of the episode (out of 6) where she finds the cure in that they simply need to be reminded of their place in Equestria and at the moment they have that revelation, they are given their Element of Harmony (a gem full of power, each of which is activated by a specific element of friendship; i.e, Honesty, Generosity, Loyalty, Kindness, Laughter, and Magic). Though this appears to be a finale-type song, this isn't even the last or second-to-last song. After this, she realises how to complete the original spell and...something special happens. That's all I'll say for now.
other my little pony songs you should react to:
pinkies lament
out on my own
got the music in you
spirit of hearths warming past
better ways to be bad
make this castle a home
hope shines eternal
stand for everfree
midnight in me
shine like rainbows
spirit of hearths warming future
spirit of hearths warming present
invisible
we’ve come so far
unleash the magic
Oh no I'm gonna cry this is one amazing and nostalgic song 😭💕💕
I highly recommend Flawless. It's one of my favorite MLP songs, I listen to it on a daily basis 😁😇😇
Hey, huge kudos to you for actually doing something _productive_ when doing the reacts, unlike... 99% of the people doing them, really.
Even that you bother to pick up the guitar and figure out the chords singles you out immensely, compared to... well, damn many, I'd say.
Unpopular opinion, but I like it. This is why I find 99% of all react videos a waste of my time.
I have a good feeling you're absolutely love the piano melody and raw vocals in "I'm just a pony" Oh and the messages from these songs/show yeah they may be aimed at kids/teens but they are powerful life lessons for any age group, I always felt at peace watching this show at the end of a long difficult day 😌
damn this is hella nostalgic, its been years since i listened to this song
You gotta do "The Magic Inside" next. It's incredibly powerful
So, who wants to bet when he will go the next level and start making MLP covers?
🐴🦄
For those open minded enough to give the show a try it’s addicting plus I’ve learned quite a few valuable lessons and only just started season 6
One of my fav songs in the series is You'll play your part its a good one you should listen to it also A True True friend is one of my favs in the series
Still recommending Paint it Black by Sebastian Böhm. Loving your videos. Keep it up!
"Fly Like You" and Brony polka animated - a mlp fandon tribute
Awesome mlp fan songs
React to “you’ll play your part” it’s really good
I suggest listening to Midnight In Me from the MLP:FIM movie Legend Of Everfree. It’s short (like only a minute long) but it’s good. It’s about human Twilight (not the same one from the first 2 Equestria Girls movies) being in inner turmoil about her spill personality Midnight Sparkle/Midnight Twilight/Midnight (which appears for a short time in the previous movie Friendship Games) trying to keep her magic inside in fear of Midnight coming out and taking control. :3
Some important context: this was part of a musical episode, the finale of the third season. It's song #4 out of 6 (with one reprise) in a 22 minute cartoon.
Maybe you've already heard music from this musical so it wouldn't be much of a reaction, but I'd love to see some reactions to songs from Phantom of the Opera. The titular theme would be a good start if diving into music from that musical.
