Fluttershy's Lament

[@boinkysploink]

Legends say that Fluttershy still wants to be a tree to this day

[@pinkiepie1656]

Well, she almost got a chance as well as Zecora.

[@Icefumy]

Well, there IS a pink tree in the MLP:ANG G5 movie that reminded me of Flutter's dream..

[@LordHoneybee]

Pfft

[@SomberLuna]

yep

[@PalkisAlt]

She nearly did in one episode, actually hilarious. Felt like that episode was made specifically for that joke

[@Koopacake]

tbh it's kinda sad how the original didn't get nearly as mug views as the others :/

This was the very brony song I ever listened to back in 2013. The nostalgia hits me hard whenever I listen to this. Anybody else?

[@Loganberrybunny]

Yep. Not the first in my case (can't remember, might have been "Flutterwonder") but very early on in spring 2012. Will always have a place in my heart. :)

[@gr8gassy]

So here's a little story. Yesterday, I was at work at my retail store, and while I was walking to the back room, I passed a little girl who had this song playing on a cell phone. Made me quite happy. I highly doubt she has any idea about us, but still cute and cool.

It just hit me, I remember having an mlp themed birthday party when I was 6-7 and listening to this on repeat while my family set everything up for me. I’m turning 17 today, and listening to this on repeat. Just crazy that I instinctively came here on my birthday.

[@Dengar97]

Happy belated birthday to you! Once you delve into FIM, you'll always be called back to your roots :D I became a brony in 2011 at around the age of 13, left the fandom in 2014 yet here I am, still listening to fan music despite turning 26 in 3 months. Never forget. /)

Atleast he/she still gets credit

[@roprope511]

​@@jack_copperz It's a bit of a cold comfort, honestly. ALAO deserved more credit in a lot of places. Both this and the This Day Aria remix people kept reuploading as a "robot version" are good examples.

The feel of this song captures Fluttershy's adorable sweetness very well. Normally I'm not a fan of auto-tuned voices but this song pulls it off. The cuteness of it all makes me wish that there were more sweethearts were like Fluttershy in the world.

I think this is a universal thing, hearing IM bleeps in songs. It happens to me all the time with other songs, but I really can't hear the Skype one here. I've heard other people say it sounds like one though.

[@edvard-zerone-nigma]

👏😔😔👏👏👏👏👏Спасибо тебе огромное......

[@theblackswordsman5039]

Has it been 11 years? feels like only yesterday I watched the PMV, that’s how I discovered the song, and it gave me vibes as a child I can’t really put into words, I miss that.

[@shivamkamil1581]

You know, I originally didn't really feel like listening to this song at first because I thought it was going to be really, really sad. Then, yesterday, a friend was singing this song during lunch (and she got Fluttershy's voice down perfectly), and I wanted to know what song she was singing. I first came across the MLH version (it wasn't Skill:Draw's video; it was one where the camera shifts form one "box" to the other), and after a bit of searching I came across this, the original... and this is really good!

[@shivamkamil1581]

Although, if one takes the lyrics out of context (or apply it to a context), one could interpret it as Fluttershy dying. XD

[@ariannaandjasmine2933]

Yeah, when I found the lyrics for the part where it sounds like a guy singing, I thought it sounded like Fluttershy was dying. I may have cried.

[@metalsandwich699]

what is this song called????

[@shivamkamil1581]

I still keep in mind the anniversary of when I first listened to the song. It was April 9th 2016, the day "On Your Marks" aired. I wish I listened when I first saw the title in 2013 though...! Although I'm not usually fond of songs like this, I don't know how, but I fell in love with this one. I also attribute it to being where I first learned about listenonrepeat and how it's accessed by putting "repeat" after "youtube" in the URL :P EDIT: Okay, so having just checked, that shortcut doesn't work anymore, and listenonrepeat is a nightmare to navigate now :P Welp, there goes an anniversary tradition. Guess everything wouldn't be the same in five years. EDIT 2: Okay, have another update on the five-year anniversary: I think I condensed it in the original comment, but my friend had been singing it on several days leading up to that day. :)
