Yes yes yes *Twilight Jumping Around* (you will get the reference, don't worry)
Eeyup! (If you do the show, you will get the reference, don't worry.)
To answer some questions: the first song was from the movie, hence the different more detailed art style.
The cutie marks are a symbolic representation of a pony's talents and skills they will apply in their lives. For example, the southern pony you like is named Applejack and her cutie mark is normally a trio of red apples. Symbolizing her talent of working her family's apple farm. However a pony is not born with a cutie mark. Though the age differs some, when a young pony grows up enough and starts experimenting with skills and jobs they eventually find their one true talent and the cutie mark magically appears. The last two songs were about the main characters friends having their marks magically switched around and being bad at what they believed they were supposed to be doing their whole lives.
Which brings us to the last item that changed them, the magical artifacts known as The Elements of Harmony. Which became tied to the 'Mane Six' (Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy) in the first episodes of the show. A spell cast in their presence rearranged who they were bonded to and changed the characters marks as a result.
(Seriously, go watch the first episodes sometime and see just how interesting the show started off. It is not what you'd expect of a little kids cartoon.)

Hey there.
I just found your video, and I can tell you some things here.
The first one you saw was from My Little Pony: The Movie. The character who sung the song is named "Tempest Shadow", who is kind of like a pony version of Darth Vader from Star Wars. And she is voiced by Emily Blunt, who you might know her from films like The Devil Wears Prada, Jungle Cruise, and Mary Poppins Returns.
For the second song, I don't think I should tell you much about it for spoiler reasons, although I will say that part of the song is a reference to the reprise of "Poor Unfortunate Souls" in the 1989 Disney film The Little Mermaid.
As for the third and forth songs, I will say that you questioned about the marks on the ponies asses. They're called cutie marks (or as I like to called them Butt Symbols. LOL!), and you're close to what they represent. They represent a pony's special talent/skill/power. However, they are not born with one, as they don't appear until later in life. About around 7-10 years old roughly. Which you will understand as you watch the series.
As for the necklaces, well once again I won't give away spoilers, but you'll find out when you start watching the series.
Anyway, glad you liked some of the songs so far. Hope to see more in future.
PLEASE DO it will start kinda childish but they will progress the more they learn trust
I will never get tired of watching people reacting to MLP songs
SAME!!!
Same here
Me too❤
Yep!
The first song is from the movie, the flatter style is from the series. And the marks on them are called cutie marks, they appear when a pony discovers their true talent.
Came here to say this
To be clear. Its the purpose in their life that they find, not their talent. They discover something they have a talent for, and the mark appears when they realize that this is what they want to spend their life doing or pursuing.
The following is a spoiler:
This is made clear with the crusaders, they each have very clear talents, as they each are incredibly talented in athletics, the arts and fashion, and acrobatics respectively. But neither one got their marks in those things, because what they realized was they wanted to spend their lives helping others realize their own purpose in life, together.
@@ShadeOnTheUtube It doesnt really work like that. 90% of ponies actually do things related to their cutiemarks beacuse it brings them happiness and they are talented in it. But not all the time. The most obvious example is Rarity. She got her cutiemark not for designing or being inspired. She got it because of her ability to find gems. But her work field is still fashion, meaning its not her talent but hard work that pays off.
@@xouleater2517she didn’t gay her cutie mark for finding gems, she got it for designing clothes. The mark is diamonds but that’s just to represent beauty, she only got her mark after making the dresses
As you're exploring this, it's important to note that there are more than one series. "Friendship is Magic" is the main series, which included the last three songs you watched here, while the first was from the MLP movie. You'll also get requests for Equestria Girls music, which is a spin-off series of shorts and movies involving the characters as humans in high school. My recommendation is that, if you're thinking seriously about watching the series, to vet any song requests from Friendship is Magic through polls and comment sections, as they can be quite spoilery. All three songs you watched from the main series here involved heavy visual spoilers for their season finales. It's fine if there's no intent to pursue the series, but it irks me to see people suggesting such high-profile finale pieces as a FIRST WATCH.
It's not that big of a deal, the show itself it's not supposed to be taken too seriously, and besides... Without context the things shown in the songs are not that spoilery.
It would be different tho if people started requesting reactions to songs like "In my Head like a Catchy Song" or "How the Magic of Friendship Grows". Since those two hold too much emotional value in them to watch them without context.
How else are you gonna get someone invested in the series? Sell it big, sell the highest highlights, and boom! They are hooked enough to start watching the series properly and join the herd.
@@Edward256 While I don't disagree, there are plenty of great in-season pieces to use that don't give up a season finale's plot. "Smile," "Bad Seed," "Winter Wrap-Up," "Art of the Dress," "In Our Town," or "It's Gonna Work," just to name a few.
I guess I'd be less upset if people would stop using these spliced videos that give a lot of visual context, where the songs themselves don't spell out things.
@@BlackBurrito9073 The videos that people are suggesting to these reactors give a lot of visual context, which is the big issue with using these songs.
@@TigStripe I agree with almost all of your recommendations, but I don't think "In Our Town" is really all that noteworthy without the context. It's literally meant to be a monotonous military march, which isn't very entertaining unless you know why it's there. Perhaps something like "Flawless" to introduce the characters instead?
Pretty much every song on the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic series was written by Daniel Ingram, who has won dozens of awards for his work. The songs use a Broadway theme approach, as they are used as a means to deliver an engaging emotional impact that drives the plot along. They have a purpose and while enjoyable on their own accord, they are often integral to the episode's plot.
It should also be noted that Weird Al Yankovic and Sia have provided their voices to pony characters.
Wierd Al, Sia, Lena Hall, John De Lancie, Felecia Day, Patton Oswald, William Shatner.....there are a lot of celebrity cameos.
@@7Seraphem7 I mean, can you really count DeLancie as a cameo when Discord became such a core part of the series?
Granted, I suppose his first appearance could be counted as a cameo of sorts, given that Discord's character was essentially just built for DeLancie to reprise his role as Q.
@@anerdwithaswitch9686 The story on that is kind of hilarious, Lauren created the character after a TNG binge, not really thinking she'd get Q himself to voice it since no way the execs would okay that. Then, when she asked the execs who they could get that could do a good DeLancie imitation... one of them just said "Well, why don't we see if we can get John himself?
Would definitely recommend the series, it's great
As for songs, I'd recommend you'll play your part, the harmonies are perfect in that one, and also flawless is another one of my favourites
You’ll play your part kinda is a spoiler though.
@@elijahsmall5873 i mean all songs have some kind of spoiler
@@lilredstrawberriez I suppose
@@elijahsmall5873 any song after season 3 is a spoiler for twilight being a princess thats unavoidable
I would love to see a reaction to the series !
Cutie Mark Crash Course:
All Equestrians (Ponies) have magic in themselves which manifests in different ways. The Cutie Mark is a reflection of what that is and what that unique talent is for them. The last two songs' episodes revolved around the 5 having their Cutie Marks switched around by accident, which affected "who they are". The last song was showing what happened after the switch, how they were trying to cope unsuccessfully, while the one before was how Twilight (purple unicorn) was helping them re-connect with who they each actually are.
There will be a HUGE inflood of folks in short order. Enjoy all tje attention and Welcome To The Herd.
Earth ponies doesn't have active magic. Someone replied me that Tirek stole their magic too, but actually we didn't see that. They were "caught", nothing else. That's why earth pony magic can "appear" in G5.
@@DcNdrew Rockhoof had his stolen. Plus Hearthswarming told us that the Earth Ponies were able to grow food the other races couldn't. They may not manifest as clearly as the others, but they have it.
@@DcNdrew Earth Ponies 100% have magic, they're more in-tune with nature (Apple family + Carrot-top growing plants) and are generally more hardy, and physically powerful (Rockhoof in particular lost almost all of his strength when Tirek absorbed his magic).
The reason why the first one looks different is because it's not from the show, it's from a movie. Also, the reason why the last two are similar is because they're from the same episode.
There is a whole arc dedicated to some kid ponies figuring out how to get a cutie mark, which eventually expands to figuring out what exactly it is. Their conclusion seems to be that it is either a special talent the pony has or their destiny (aka what they will become), and it marks the coming of age of a pony, since it also goes along with figuring out what they will do with their life.
That alone is super fascinating, and there are a couple songs centered around these kids (the Cutie Mark crusaders) I would love to see a reaction to :D
I WISH the show looked like the first song, but nah, that's actually the movie. I do like the show's normal animation tho but can you imagine if the whole show had THAT animation? dope af
Dope af and bankrupt faster than Germany after the World War. 😆💸🔥
@@Nyorane I know but it's free to dream lol
I much prefer the original series' animation style, to me the movie just makes the ponies look more like babies
Im supprised you dident know it was a series but ive heard another reactor say that before so Im confused at what people thought it was?
I’m 32 so not something that would’ve been in my zeitgeist! I think I thought it was just a brand of dolls or something! 🤣
@@ProjectSenpai oh I see im 18 and grew up with everything mlp they do have dolls/toys but there charachters from the show.
@@ProjectSenpai Don't worry there are a LOT of growups in the fandom. Proof that this show had something for everyone.
@@lipopcorne489
To be fair the first generation of My Little Pony came out back in the 70's... So there are possibly even elderly people in the fandom and not just because their grandkids watch it. XD
@@kittiesice True. I have g1 on dvd.
The series was wonderful, 9 seasons with many good songs and stories throughout. There was also the movie, a follow up special (Rainbow Roadtrip), and then the spin-off set of Equestria Girls (also had great music there too). Friendship is Magic is Generation 4 of the MLP franchise.
So many people are doing these videos now and I love it! I've just recently started rewatching the show, and reactions to it, and the timing for all these videos is so perfect!
The show was meant for all ages, particularly adults who had seen the previous “generations” of the show (this is Generation 4) to watch with their kids, said the creator Lauren Faust. But once she left the show staff, Hasbro figured that since the show had garnered more of a teenage/adult fanbase, to run with it and make the show more serious.
The marks on their flanks are called cutie marks and they are like representations of their talents and skills. The first song is from the my little pony movie so it looked better
The main TV series has loads and loads of songs in a bewildering array of styles and musical genres, and they range in quality from "Okay" to "Holy shit! That's amazing!" The theatrical movie (where the first song came from) has a couple of good songs in it, and there is a spin-off series of TV movies and specials, called "Equestria Girls", that is set in a parallel world, where human versions of the ponies attend high school. EQG has _mostly_ generic teen pop songs (especially at the beginning), with a couple exceptions (particularly the later villain songs). This spin-off also has some standalone music videos that showcase more variety than the main movies.
A word of warning, if you're going to take suggestions from the comments: You will inevitably get lots of recommendations for songs that were very impactful or emotionally moving *_in context_* but that are either incomprehensible or musically uninteresting, when experienced context-free in isolation.
The song _A True, True Friend_ that you listened to is one of those that are very confusing without the context from the show in general (What these characters are normally like, what the butt marks symbolise, and what those necklaces are) and the episode-specific context about the massive mix-up of memories and destinies that is being fixed here. But at least it's _musically_ interesting, with the harmonies being built up and up and _up_ in each repetition, layer by layer, with each character that joins into the chorus, even if the story being told is hard to make out.
My go-to example for a song that is a terrible suggestion, out of context, is one called _In Our Town_ (or just _Our Town)._ You are practically _guaranteed_ to get several recommendations for it, because in the context of the episode it's an important villain statement, and because in the context of the show the character who sings it becomes _very_ important later on in the series, inflating the perceived importance of this song in retrospect. But without all that meta-context, the song is _completely boring!_ Being boring and uninspired is, in fact, _the entire point_ of this song. It literally advocates passionless mediocrity and rigidly adhering to the lowest common denominator, and thus Daniel Ingram deliberately chose to score it as a bog-standard march rhythm without any flair or interesting flourishes.
And yet, some fans will inevitably recommend it for non-fans to listen to, devoid of all this context that makes it interesting - and then they wonder why it fails to amaze people.
To throw some recommendations of my own out:
_Winter Wrap-up_ was one of the earliest songs in the series that really made people sit up and take notice for the first time, and I feel it still holds up.
_A Kirin Tale_ from much later in the series is funny, bouncy, and requires little context, because its whole point is to serve as exposition in the episode.
_The Smile Song_ a.k.a. _Smile, Smile, Smile_ is another early one that's dear to my heart, because I'm a total sucker for those "This is who I am" character songs, but I contend that it's still a banger, even absent my personal fondness. Make sure, though, not to accidentally stumble into "Smile HD", which is an absolutely brutal, bloody, over-the-top violent fan animation that uses this song as background music.
The last two songs are both from the same episode. The last one comes first, where we are shown that their cutie marks were switched around for some reason. The other one comes later, where they fix the whole problem. It may appear like a "different perspective", because only the first song you watched was how it actually appears in the show (or in its case, in the movie). The other three were official "music videos" where the scenes from the songs themselves were mixed with other scenes from their episodes. Thus, since the last two songs were from the same episode, they may have used the same scenes sometimes, sometimes even from the other song.
**(NOTE: I don't know English, I'm Latino and this is converted with the google translator, in case you don't understand it very well)**
For me My Little Pony (G4) is one of the best series out there because:
Its high point is its characters: its characters are very well written, they all have a very well defined personality; you have their lives, their dreams, their fears and you like them within 5 minutes of meeting them (and this is not only for the protagonists but for everyone) and throughout the entire series you can see how they progress in their lives; The characters, like their lives and their world, are not at all the same when the series begins as it ends.
Another very good thing are the songs: the songs are works of art, they are wonderfully composed, each song has its own essence, its own theme; and they are not the type to interrupt the plot, on the contrary, they flow with it.
The villains: the villains are very good, there are 1 or 2 that are half wasted but they are all memorable. And do not think that because it is a "childish" series, all the villains redeem themselves or do not suffer the consequences for their actions; NO. Half of the villains accept their role as villains, and suffer the consequences for it.
His world: his world is HUGE so much so that it takes several seasons to get to places that are only mentioned before. Or another thing they do is introduce you to characters that belong to a certain race/species to go deeper into them in the future (where they come from, what their lifestyle is like, etc.)
And his Lore is even better, especially with the theme of magic and everything that is involved.
And it may seem like a cliché of the Barbi movies that they win with the power of friendship, but here that is refuted; there's a whole lore about how friendship is magical and it's not as silly as it sounds; the power of friendship is a real power that exists in that world, if they use it as a weapon (there is a villain who is disintegrated alive with that power, it is also noticeable that he suffered in the brief process)
Another thing is its humor, references, and double meanings: although the series is focused on children at the beginning (in the fourth season it becomes for all audiences) there are many themes, references, and double meanings that only an adult audience will notice, in addition of situations that are really serious if you think about what is really happening (that is, the series has situations that do not seem so serious for how they are shown to you, but you just have to think a little about what is really passing to see the seriousness of the situation)
Your community: this is one of the series that I have seen the most that listens to its community and that the community does more things from it. I mean, there are things that happen in the series because the fans asked for it, or others like episode 100 that is directed for the fans.
And one thing that I like about a fandom are the fanarts, the animations, the songs, and the stories they create... well, those from this community are the best I've seen (whoever doesn't believe me, I challenge you to watch the animation "Lullabi for a Princess" or "Snowdrop" on TH-cam and tell me you thought they were bad)
And finally I am going to touch on something that has given a lot of talk in recent years, and it is inclusion: inclusion in this series should be taken as an example to follow. And it's that I'm fed up with seeing so much forced inclusion in the movies, Wokism, progressive and feminist shitty messages; plus LGBT crap. But as I said, the inclusion of this series is the best I've seen; not only because of a lot of criticism towards racism and having non-forced gay characters with a good development in their relationship, but because throughout the entire series we can see various characters who are disabled, invalids, and with mental illnesses/problems; And the best thing is that they show you like any other characters, what stands out about them is their personality, not their condition, that's inclusion.
There's so many channels doing reactions to the songs for the first time recently 😅 I'm not complaining tho.
I'd definitely recommend watching the series! I will say that the first two seasons are a bit slow to get through as that was when it was written more towards a younger audience. But after you get to the third season and beyond, it is amazing!!
Hell yes dude I really hope you end up watching the show, most of the songs are a million times better in context
My Little Goaty
Ayy! I recognize you! Lmao
@@assassin01620 ;)
The songs in this show are so, SO catchy. My al time favorites and what I ALWAYS recommend to people looking at the songs is "You'll Play Your Part" and "Kirin Tale" both of them absolute bangers.
huhu that becomes a common challenge for youtubers to watch "My Little Pony"^^
Yep i see many youtubers react too mlp in this year.
8:00 In the weird world of Equestria, _everything,_ from the change of seasons to the rising and setting of the sun, has to be accomplished by hoof. This includes day-to-day weather, and the movement and even formation of rain clouds. This apparently only extends to the borders of pony-developed lands; the neighboring Everfree Forest terrifies many of them because the climate and wildlife are independent. (EDIT: Whoops, mixed this up with another episode! The ponies' problems come from a spell that switched out their "Cutie Marks," which indicate their talent or special aspect.)
I love how everyone’s doing this now, as someone who grew up with this show it’s one of my favorite things to see tbh
The song “what my cutie mark is telling me” comes before the previous song you had watched. “What my cutie mark is telling me” was presenting the issue, and the previous song was solving it.
Oh, I think I just replied to your comment on another channel doing one of these videos. So I'm assuming you've already seen Scoot's videos by now xD
One thing Daniel Ingram (write most of the gen 4 MLP music) is good at is villain songs. The reasons the series has done so well is because the themes aren't exclusively kid-based, and the show doesn't talk down to it's audience. It hits 3 check boxes of a kids show, no swearing, no sex, and no realistic violence.
But it never talks down to its audience and covers some surprisingly complex themes so it gets emotional reactions from a lot of people.
To answer some of your questions - particularly the 2nd song, the This Day Aria, so spoilers but you asked :P That's a 2 parter season finale, and it revolves around Princess Cadence's (the pink alicorn (unicorn with wings) with the pink, purple and yellow hair) wedding preparation. And she's a complete bitch throughout the episode. Come to find out she's been replaced by a shapeshifter, and this song takes place right after the shapeshifter reveals herself and imprisons one of the characters with the real princess.
For the 3rd song - the cutie marks are the butt tattoos, and they're basically a representation of some special talent or quality of the character. This was also a season finale and due to some magic shenanigans, the marks of the main characters got flipped around and their souls and personalities got cluttered together. So the song about the marks telling them what to do is them being out of sorts, and the True True Friends song is putting them back together. By doing what they're good at (which is what the other character was failing at), they can re-learn who they're supposed to be. I love the theme that you can learn who you are by helping others. Lot more interesting than what most people imagine when they hear "kids shows."
So the first clip came from the 2017 movie and it is why the animation was a bit different. It for sure had a Dreamworks feel to it. The "butt tattoos" are indeed called Cutie Marks and they show up on their flanks when they find their talent/purpose in life. This show, while originally developed for pre-teen girls, is about self discovery and overcoming hardship through friendship. That plot point along with great music and a good sense of humor is what really connected with both Millennials and GenZ. I personally HIGHLY recommend you react to the whole series as there is some amazing episodes and movies in its 9 seasons of running. The first season is a little closer to what you would expect from a show for little girls, as they obviously didn't anticipate their adult fan base, but they adapted for season 2 and beyond.
La serie si es buena y tiene momentos maduros, pero al principio no lo parece, la primera temporada si bien no es mala es la mas genérica y cliche de la serie, a medida que avanzan las temporadas mejora un montón
Has anyone told him about Lullaby for a Princess and The Moon Rises yet? I highly recommend reacting to those two, cuz they portray the first story really well and it's a good introduction to FiM.
Lease never watch videos from any official mlp medium they like to make a stupid little collage instead of posting it how it shows up in the show and it’ll confuse you more
So the second song is from the core show. And yes, MLP has bodysnatchers. The first is from the 2019 movie, but the show does get a visual upgrade (slightly) after that movie.
And just so you have the knowledge, marks are an identifier. If you have a bunch of skills, but you discover you're unusually good at a specific one, you get your mark in that talent. But Equestria has diseases and anomalies that can sometimes jumble marks and even the memories of ponies, leading to those last two songs. Ponies getting swapped around and forgetting their real talent but not being able to complete the tasks of their mismatched talent.
Everyone gets one mark, appearing around their teen years, and will live with it for life. But marks can evolve in their meaning; they're a source of magic and can be redefined or lose their power entirely. It's like having a buff in one skill, but you can stop doing that thing and really hurt yourself.
Please do "A Kirin Tale", "You'll Play Your Part", "Flawless", and "The Magic Inside (I Am Just a Pony)"
I LOVE LOVE LOVE My Little Pony! I'm hear nodding when you say your theories! XD Just watch the series and you'll understand LOL
If you liked the southern accented Applejack, then you gotta hear "Raise The Barn" or "Apples to The Core".
Out of these four, I guess my favourite was A True True Friend. Because of the clever way they added instruments as the song progressed with each pony.
You need to react to the songs from the equestria girl movies . There songs are peak
Those videos are not official at all.. idk where they were from but nah haha its not from the show
Honestly you should have reacted to the actual video for this day aria. I mean you're reacting to songs from the show so spoilers are going to be a thing but sometimes the actual music video will give context to the song. Still intriguing you randomly picked 2 villain songs to start with
Kinda will set your path tbh considering the villains in this show are actually fleshed out and almost can be sympathized with to an extent........well; some but no spoilers lol
Id recommend Luna's Future, In our Town, and two really insanely good fan songs based on the actual lore of the show: Lullaby for a Princess, and The Moon Rises!
other good songs
The Magic Inside
Happy heartwarming
Luna's Future
We will stand for Everfree
You'll Play Your Part
Can you react to these mlp songs
"You'll play your part"
And
"A better way to be bad"
They are both really good
And if you can react to these fanmade songs
"Frailty by PrinceWhateverer"
And "Final Eclipse"
And also "lullaby for a princess" by Warpout
And "The moon rises"
How is mlp who ended like 4 years ago still getting new people to it how good of a show you must be lmao
The “open up your eyes” song is from the movie, My Little Pony that’s why the art styles different
Dang, talk about a whiff on setting expectations with the first one. lol And ugh, the rest are "music video" edits. Always hated those. They make the scenes so much weaker by messing with 'em.
If you like apple Jack (southern pony) you should listen to the song Raise this Barn and Apples to the Core. Another good song is winter wrap up, babseed, and you’ll play your part
Unfortunately the last songs you watched were compilations and not directly from the show.
It's much better when you watch the animated show versions rather than visual medleys.
you shoudl react to th series dude, it's awesome! Reacting to the show will make your channel 20% Cooler in 10 seconds flat!
Show is raely great, but its not that mature. Its realy fun, has referenses to adult stuff and overall fantasy setting with a bit of modernity.
At least seasns 1-3 did not ecnolage the fan base at the time, but later seasons has a bit less relax episodes and more stakes.
Season 4, 5 and 6 seasons endings are like top tear epic.
And that first one was from a movie, just so you know.^^
take a look at "smile" and "cheese sandwich (The Super Duper Party Pony)" songs
when this serie was airing i happen to live with 2 little neices, so i serached and watched all the chapters . it was very good . some chapters ahve very touching and interesting plots. there is even a few chapters that are musicals. all songs
AYYY
Ill have to skip some since im not caught up but woo
And the next one p 11:10 aa yeah i wish they told you
The last two songs are from the same episode
I would recommend Winter Wrap-Up as a great song. Thr Goof-Off is a great, hilarious song with a guest voice. NO SPOILERS EVERYPONY!!!!
I think it had an avid fanbase years ago. Don’t think it was as avid as it once was.
One song from this series that I'd love for you to react to is My Past Is Not Today, a music video set as an in between to two of the movies.
Just a note. all the songs after the the first were, not just from the show, but the "music video" versions. they weren't the actual versions you would see in the show. they cut in scenes from other parts of those episodes. for example, this day aria, the "darker" pony wasn't revealed until after that song came on. the scene of the two "coming together" was from the climax of the ep. you have to be careful when trying to get the songs from the official channels. they do have episode versions, but it's hit or miss which on you'll get.
when looking for songs there are some channels that would give better results

MLP Songs
MLP FiM is an absolute amaze show and you should totes watch it !
Looks like the show is having a resurrection! More people are checking out the music. From there...well I'll just welcome you to the herd early lol
Yay!!!
When you were watching "This day aria" it was edited version, she wasn't changing her form in oryginal (until after she was found out). Well, now it's to late xD
Ah i see what you mean
As people have already mentioned, the first song (Open Up Your Eyes) was from the movie, hence the animation glow-up
A True True Friend and What My Cutie Mark Is Telling Me are obviously from the same episode, with their order actually being switched here (first their cutie marks (which represent their special talent) get switched up, messing with their heads/memories and convincing them that their talent is something they actually do not have any skill for, leading to all the chaos in What My Cutie Mark Is Telling Me and THEN Twilight (purple unicorn) goes around along with the Elements of Harmony (necklaces) reminding each of them of their true talent, restoring both their memories and original cutie marks during the song A True True Friend)
I definitely recommend watching the show or even just giving the movie a try
(movie takes place a couple seasons into the show though so if you decide on doing both and care about spoilers, start with the series)
Thats an odd collection of songs you got there for a first introduction to the show music. except for the first one they were also some "music video" versions that detract a bit from the overall delivery.
When My Little Pony: The Movie came out I was absolutely OBSESSED with Open Up Your Eyes and Tempest, the pony with the broken horn. I saw it in theaters when it first came out and loved it so much!
i love mlp so much!
Is gen 4 coming back with a new wave of peeps :)
The black and green pony is a changeling. They can shape shift and take the exact appearance of another character and are very good at manipulation. So yes the one model of Cadance was actually Queen Chrysalis in disguise.
MLP songs recomendation: The magic inside, Smile, Winter wrap up
If you are ever going to watch fanmade songs then you should start with "Lulaby for a princess" "The Moon rises" as those are THE fanmade songs and they should always go hand in hand (same story from 2 diffrent points of view) :3
underrated gem of a song from MLP is babs seed fr
Why no one send him Luna's Future song???
These are just the tip of a massive iceburg of amazing story and music. And the really wild thing is the vast, vast array of songs in nearly every style and genre are nearly all done by one guy, Daniel ingram.
The last two songs were from the same episode, but in the opposite order - it would probably make more sense to watch them the other way around. Although atill not *that* much sense without further context I guess :D
songs: a kirin tale, the spectacle and glass of water
As a certified brony I disagree with the motion that mlp has mature or dark elements. Maybe in very few little ocassions but overall its just a cartoon for children. MLP fans shouldnt lie about this
Kudos- most of it’s fluff and fun.
I guess "dark" isn't the right word. More like it knows when and how to take itself seriously, and that keeps it interesting for all ages.
Yeah sometimes i think the whole it has dark elements does get exaggerated a little bit i mean sure there's some things in the the show does have implications of being dark to some extent but it's only if you really look into it.
You should react to flawless what a song
Song 1: It's from the movie, which was made using a new, experimental program. The show is animated in Flash, but the movie is animated in Toon Boom. The pony singing, Tempest, is a unicorn. There are 3 pony types, each with their own abilities, and unicorns can cast a vast assortment of spells. The purple pony is named Twilight Sparkle, and if you pay attention, she has wings in this song, while she doesn't in the other 3. Long story short, Twilight ascended to become an Alicorn, which is a pony with traits from all 3 pony species. The Alicorns are the ones who rule over Equestria, with Celestia at the head. Series creator Lauren Foust intended for Celestia to be a queen, but Hasbro insisted on the Alicorns all being princesses because they're more marketable.
Song 2: The pony who's all beat up is named Cadence, and she's supposed to be marrying Twilight's brother Shining Armor. The black pony who sometimes looks like her is named Chrysalis, and she's not actually a pony, but a changling. Changlings can change their appearance to look like anyone, or anything. They feed on love, and Chrysalis is the changling Queen. She took Cadence's place because Cadence is the princess of love, and Shining Armor is the captain of the royal guard, and it was because of his magic that the changlings couldn't get into Canterlot to steal love from everypony.
Song 4: This song is meant to be before Song 3, so I'll talk about it first. Cutie Marks are magical marks a pony gets once they realize their true talent. As part of her test to ascend as an Alicorn, Twilight accidentally swapped the cutie marks of her friends. This song is to show everypony failing miserably at doing the other pony's jobs, which they now think are their own due to the spell.
Song 3: The necklaces are the Elements of Harmony, magic jewels the Mane 6 use to protect Equestria. When Twilight cast the spell that swapped everyone's cutie marks, it was through their connection to the elements that caused everypony's cutie marks to switch. Twilight figured out that she could use the elements magic to restore harmony by reminding everypony of their true talents. Afterwards, she was able to re-write the spell that caused the mess, and in doing so ascended.
The last two songs are connected, but you watched them in the reverse order. ;)
And yeah, Hasbro has been trying to be a Disney since the beginning. Or at least since their first MLP cartoon in the 80s. And yeah, there are currently 5 iterations of MLP called Generations. The first generation from the 80s had a song in *every* episode. The second generation had no cartoon, just a PC game. Third generation had more of Direct-to-Video mini films, but not all features had a song. What you just watched is the fourth generation, which also doesn't have a song in every episode, but definitely got actresses that can sing! All throughout having that Disney vibe now and again.
"I don't know what I expected, but it wasn't that"
Welcome to the fanbase lol That being said, and you probably already know this by now, the first song was from a movie. They had a huge animation budget!
Is it ok if i ask why you kept comparing to DreamWorks?
I understand the comparison with Disney (especially classic disney musicals), but DreamWorks... i truly didn't get this comparissing.
If you do another video, I'd suggest avoiding the music videos uploaded by the official MLP channel. In true music video style, they edit together clips from (sometimes various) episodes, and that kinda gives the wrong impression about the songs and how they're presented.
Instead there are plenty of unedited-from-the-show videos of the songs uploaded by fans - I'd strongly recommend going that route. Letupita and Sugarcube Corner and reliable and trustworthy ones for that.
This series is my fav series of all time now. Started watching after 3rd season was fully released and then every saturday watching a new EP with excitement! It also let me met cool people that I still stay in contact with and it also helped me cope with awful emotional times. It has taught me a lot too. Has 9 seasons, around 4 Equestria girls movies, many other specials and shorts, all canon. Along with My little pony the movie by AllSpark and two other specials, also canon such as Rainbow Roadtrip and Best gift ever. Other shorts as well. The series starts simple at first and gets more complex and deep as season passes. The fandom has been a huge thing for a long time and it's still there, even on G5. Sadly some creators from youtube are not around anymore or not making fan made content. Some say it might be related to Hasbro and the franchise trademark, even though many of them did things from scratch. Or maybe they just wanted to pursue another path in their careers. Never been to a convention from the series but some I could name Bronycon (Not longer active), Harmonycon, Vanhoover. There's also a website called Equestria Daily where news about the series get posted, fanwork showcase, etc!
I do recommend the series to everyone, really! It's really great! My partner hasn't seen it but he was open to watch it with me so I introduced him into it. He doesn't consider himself a brony but he really enjoys it and don't regret a thing now. He finds it interesting, funny and really amazing songs so far. Deep too. Many people should give it a chance because I did in the past when it was blowing up the fandom with the bronies. That's what made me more curious to watch it and even my older brother started watching it back then. It made me cry when it ended. It's been a long journey.
For songs, I recommend:
-Flawless
-You'll play your part
-Welcome to the show
-Unleash the magic
The last two songs are dificult to get a grip on without context. But I gues they are good if you want to confuse and intruige people xD
"This Day Aria" was the only one I really liked out of this collection. "Open up your eyes" is...okay. Though I personaly never understood the hype around it. I think there are way better songs in the show. Besides "This Day Aria", the songs selected here are just C-tier for me.
Just to mention, if you had True True Friend and What My Cutie Mark Is Telling Me in order the other way around, having True True Friend be last, it would've made more sense, as What My Cutie Mark Is Telling Me was first.
A cutie mark is something ponies get when they discover their special talent! Also
What My Cutie Mark is Telling Me
comes before A True True Friend
Second song's footage is not real. It's a chaotic compilation of random clips, and not actually animated sequence that was in the show.
If characters are not moving lips when song is happening, or random stuff is happening when the song is happening, it means it's a clip compilation and not actual sequence. I dunno why Hasbro even uploaded them, it just confuses people.
Third song also compilation, that's not what actually happened in the episode.
@@VcSaJen I've seen the show and it is actually what is shown
@@West-rk7dz It jumps backwards and forwards, instead of being continuous. Chrysalis transforming wasn't even a part of the song.
A lot of the music videos you watched were more AMV’s
Instead of showing the actual clip that happens during the song, they were very disjointed clips, too.
Also, the song “what my cutie mark is telling me “
Canonically comes right before
“a true, true friend”
That’s why it kind of seem similar but a little confusing.
songs I recomand:
Magic Inside of you
Luna's future
Battle of the bands
Under Our spell
Welcome to the show
Friendship through the ages
Accadeca
Unleash the Magic
Midnight Inside of me
In this universe, a cutie mark represents both your purpose in life and your talent. In the episode, their memories and cutie marks were switched.
7:21
For some background there was an evil queen called Chrysalis (who is pretty much just a bug) who feeds off of emotions, so she kidnapped Cadence (the pink/purple haired one) and impersonated her to marry her fiancé and feed of of him. (The guy who got mind controlled)
That would have lead to inevitable death of thousands and world domination, but that’s a whole other thing.
Her purpose was to feed of Shining Armour (the groom) and break down the magical barriers surrounding the city to allow her subjects (more evil bug-changelings) to take over the city and feed off of the emotions of everyone else.
Ehh, just some usual stuff in the MLP Cinematic universe.
I'd recommend you to watch the movie 'My Little Pony: New Generation'. Hasbro has failed the lore of the world but there are a few adorable songs too.
As good as some of these songs may be, they really aren't good picks for an out of context blind reaction. For that I'd choose something more along the lines of The Smile Song, Hearts Strong as Horses, The Spectacle/The Magic Inside, The Flim Flam Brothers, You're in My Head Like a Catchy Song, A Kirin Tale, or Apples to the Core. I'm hoping for some of these in the possible follow up video.
Sorry in advance for the info dump
There are three main forms of pony. Unicorns (who use magic) Pegasi (who fly and control the weather) and Earth ponies (who are stronger and grow plants better). There is also alicorn's who have the traits of all three and are basically gods. There's only 3-4 alicorns. Celestia (who controls the sun) Luna (who controls the moon) and Cadence (who controls love). There's also subspecies like bat ponies (pegasi with bat wings) kirin (added in the later seasons they're like scaly unicorns with lion like manes that catch on fire when angry). There is also a LOT of other races. Dragons, Griffins, Seaponies, Changlings (shapshifters who feed off love), Yaks, buffalo, etc.
The marks on their flanks are called cutie marks. Cutie marks are an innate part of growing up. When you discover the talent that makes you special or what you want to do with your life a mark appears that represents that talent or destiny. For example the Orange pony is Applejack. She grew up on her family farm but wanted to leave so she went to live with her cousins (the oranges) in the big city but when she saw an explosion of color from the direction of the farm (being vague cause it's a whole episode that goes into the main six's cutie mark stories) she realizes she's homesick and she was always meant to be an apple farmer so she gets the three apples on her flank. The song you saw involved a mysterious spell that swapped all their marks leaving them all miserable and thinking the swapped marks is what they always had. The necklaces are legendary artifacts that each of the main six became the bearers of in the first and second episode. Twilight (the purple one) is reminding them of their talents and then using the necklaces to info dump their true past to counteract the spell.
As for songs to recommend the more famous early ones would be "Winter Wrap Up" and "Smile". From the one mlp Pony Movie (the movie that first song was from) I'd suggest the opening song "We Got This Together" and "Time to be Awesome".
From the Equestria Girls movies (a side story movie that involves an alternate universe through a mirror portal where all the characters have human versions of themselves. Keep in mind there's six main characters in the show, in these movies the only characters from the show that cross through the mirror are Twilight (the purple pony turned human) and spike (the purple dragon turned dog) All the other characters look like the ponies but they aren't. That series of movies has a lot of good music. Only suggesting one from each movie in order there is "Equestria Girls (Cafeteria Song)", "Let's Have a Battle (Of the Bands)", "ACADECA", and "Stand for Everfree"
There are so many songs in this series. I'm not even suggesting the late seasons songs even though there's like 40 more really good songs. Oh and fan songs, entirely up to you if you want to ract to fan content but the #1 and #2 fan songs I see people not even into the show reacting to are "Lullaby for a Princess" and "The Moon Rises" both have high quality animations (that were worked on for years) to react to.
I love seeing people look into this "kids" show by the music. Though, you sampled a rather small lot. May I suggest Flawless, You'll Play Your Part, and Luna's Future....
I recommend 1. A Kirin Tale, 2. I think it’s called The Magic Inside? and 3. Smile
The movie(the first song, my favorite), was pretty good though the villain was less interesting than any of the ones in the tv show… Season 1&2 are more on the slice of life/morality tale stories, but still solid. The series gets a lot better around the end of 2.
U rly have watch show understand whats going on in the songs
here are some of my favourites from the series (aka what i have on my spotify)! a bit extensive. i'm going all in . hope it helps ?!
bats
pinkies lament (underrated as hell)
the smile song (very iconic!!!)
winter wrap up (also iconic, first song of the entire series)
babs seed
under our spell, welcome to the show (from mlp equestria girls)
you'll play your part
say goodbye to the holidays, seeds of the past, pinkies present, lunas future (all from the same ep LOL)
we got this together, time to be awesome, one small thing, friend that you need (all from the movie that the first song you reacted to is in, they're just genuinely very fun and have sick animation)
i'm happy to see people react to mlp songs lately!!!! they're very fun to watch :]
I would suggest the songs: Friendship is Magic, Flawless, and Winter Wrap Up to understand more about the series and characters as a whole
MLP: Equestria Girls songs go so hard, highly recommend you watch them! Mostly Rainbow Rocks
The necklaces are the elements of Harmony which each of the main six represents a different element like Raity is the element of Generosity, Apple Jack the element of honesty, Pinky Pie the element of Laughter, Rainbow dash the element of Loyalty, Fluttershy the element of kindness, and Twilight the element of Magic
