PrinceWhateverer - Old Phantoms [MLP song]

[@4everfreebrony]

Hmmmm... Watching friends die because you're immortal Feeling dead inside because you're old Losing the concept of time Never heard of those topics before. ;) All in all, really liked this one. Nice job.

Actually as far as i know She is not immortal, i think it's is canon.

[@aminathnizama8798]

@@CoffeeTheDragon oh she's probably immortal because season 9 ended and we all know twi didn't age and from what I seen G5 is practical reboot of g4 except twi doesn't have a horn and applejack more like rarity how would that work but these are only concept arts so they can flip a switch incase fans hated it saying that I can see g5 brony saying to us g4 brownies OK boomer huh... That's weird

[@AlexLoneWolf]

This song means a lot to me Lost my memory to amnesia, and bits and fragments remain and shards keep coming back in painful waves. I forgot faces and family like relationships, and hallow dreams that haunt me. People who were as close to me to call a big brother erased, now I face them like strangers

[@System_Error404X]

That sounds terible

Same ugh

My mind never seems to cease to continue the process piecing the puzzle that is old me, showing me things out of order. Not when I eat, not when I walk, not when I sleep I imagine.

[@Torlyas]

As much as being an alicorn sounds cool and all, I always had this harsh truth of losing every friend and loved one in the back of my head. It really makes you think if being a princess in Equestria is an award or some kind of punishment in the end. The song is great, thank you Prince for making pony music after the end!

[@TOH_Fan]

"Time will loose it's meaning after a while. Memories replaced, faces gone, family, friends, lives, it's all the same, I've lived many lives I'll never remember, you too shall meet this fate, I'm sorry." Twilight put down the letter from Celestia. She sat hapless, as she spoke aloud. "Wish I had know that when I signed up for this." She would come to forget this too.

[@Nilan37]

Honestly Prince, I would rather have you make me cry a million times over with this video than lose it. Because at least you made me cry over something I love. Carry on Mlp. My friends. You were more than just ponies. Mares who made me smile. You... were my friends...

Came across your channel a good few months ago and rapidly fell in love with what you do. I haven't seen an artist as determined to keep the fire bright before and it's so relieving to see. As for this... Twi's fate is a sad one. You managed to capture that all too well.

[@Kinessmata-Akkadian]

Through Conviction and Resilience, I felt time pull on me, my Frailty reaching ever higher. Even with Breaking Bonds over the years, I work on to see a Better Tomorrow. Solidarity would Destabilize, but I'm Not Letting Go. Despite my Shallow Naivety, I made it last, but only now do I see Old Phantoms. They said to build Your Own Sky, but now... Now it's just a land of unjust Holy Fire, and Nightmare Night is forevermore. Will I ever heal these old wounds? Will I see them again? My True Friends?... It's so lonely..................

[@thunderkravenrifthound2288]

The price of slow aging and immortality will not only make you feel with sadness but crumbling your own mind and sanity and seeing the loss of your friends and leads you to do decisions that can affect yourself and others thinking it's the right thing but it crumbles Immortality and slow aging is something that shouldn't earn because it will affect you alot Twilight is facing her responsibility which made her aging process slow aging less while her friends pass on

[@TheCommenterDragon]

Another miraculous and incredible song i love it, i especially love the animation on Twilight.

Splendid work as usual Prince Whateverer. I'm not usually a fan to rock and/or roll, but you sir Pony Pegasus sure do the genre justice. There is more to your work than simple head banging and pounding of drums... The melody is beautiful indeed. I would also like to hear an orchestrated instrumental version of, "Old Phantoms." Keep up the great work Prince Whateverer. I've always been a fan of your music.

[@GreenFlyart]

So what did it cost Princess Twilight? "everything"

[@TheRandomYoYo]

I've been drifting closer and further from the fandom, but the journey surely was worth it. It was a nice ending, and I am happy to say that the creations that came from it still caress my memories like soft velvet. You are one of the best musicians I know, I just can't not enjoy any song you put out even if I don't know the origin of the story. Keep it up, make the passing sun a bit brighter for everyone who listens to your art.

[@SnowShovelMusic]

The story in this song is deep af... Even though I haven't watch the MLP ending episode, I kinda know how it ends and since when I heard the lyrics in this song I knew where you were aiming for in this one... This is deep... At least for my interpretation. Becoming an Alicorn to get a very long life ( If not immortal ), seeing the people passing by while you're getting old but without feeling you're going to die yet, it must be a really hard reality... But it was all worth it... That sentence in this song I read it as a question ( But it was all worth it? )... Becoming an Alicorn was really worth it? In my opinion with the perspective of this song and my point of view, no. Not if those memories are going to haunt you forever. And... Dude... This is a really nice song, I really like it, I loved the spooky chord arpeggios at the beginning and during the song, they gave me some goosebumps, excellent work like always, keep it up!

I miss my Rocky, I miss the fact it hurts so bad to think about him I've become numb from it all and try not to remember but really hate feeling I am forgetting him. I see him drift by, at the edge of my memories. Is my mind lost in time, Faces I knew, places I've been, they're fading and blurry.... I don't know what's real is the biggest one I relate to. I feel like my life is all just a huge dream, I barely know what's happening anymore

Обычно рэп сильно грузит и заставляет задуматься, а рок включаешь, чтобы зарядиться или поднять настроение. Но послушав это можно пачку сигарет выкурить.

Мне кажется, что у тебя для этого есть всё.

[@karoufox9135]

Am I just imagining the subtle references to Prince's other songs in this one? I keep feeling like I'm faintly hearing other melodies in it. Whether that's intentional or not, it works really well with this song.

[@BlueSpring3]

I kinda connect this with missing my friends from my former class. We all graduated only half a year ago, but it feels like a decade. Of course there are those you keep in contact with, but for the majority, I haven't spoken with them since then. I wonder what they're up to and while I could write and ask them, I dunno what to say. It's already akward as it is. I also wonder if they feel the same way.

This is the first song I ever saw of the MLP fandom, because it came out when I first started looking that up on youtube (yeah, I'm pretty new to the brony fandom ^^'); I remember deciding not to click because the art of Twilight looked kinda scary, so I kinda skipped it, but I still remember it to be the first brony video I ever saw. Now, being a fan of your musics, KZbin autoplay brought me here again; and I just realized it when I was at around 2:29, when Twilight says "I see them drift by, At the edge of my memories"... And damn, that hurts😭😭But at least now I can say, very great song PW ❤

@@Makenshi179 i don't know you can be true but it's hard to tell if you look at luna who is one millenium younger that her sister she's little so i asked myself if maybe it's cause for her lifetime she's at the start and if you think about it Twilight look the same as Celestia maybe it's bacause they need a different form for twilight but maybe it's because for her lifetime she has passed the half of it... personnaly i think it's possible that her lifetime is as short as one of a normal pony but as a alicorn i don't think she have a that short lifetime and plus i don't think the community is ready to see twilight die from old age (personnaly i'm not xD)
