The Gem I Want to Be - SU ANIMATIC

[@JohnPeacekeeper]

This song takes a whole new meaning now.

[@mika.milk.almond]

John Peacekeeper yeeeeeee

[@smartphonevids6631]

John Peacekeeper In a way you could say this was a metaphor. Pink wanting to be someone else destroyed Pink Diamond and created Rose Quartz.

[@lila-chan1852]

Yep

[@avawings.9335]

Its from my little pony

[@bittlesthecookieakacaitcat8798]

John Peacekeeper exactly

[@AtarahDerek]

I have no problem pretending Rose's presence is symbolic of Pink's internal conflict.

[@AreesDaOG]

True

[@ravensteinmsp2610]

You know even with Rose actually being pink diamond, this still makes sense. Rose watching over pink diamond could be metaphorical, Rose was the gem pink diamond wanted to be. But she had to hide that form away, because Pink still had to be a diamond. So yeah

[@CJCroen1393]

I agree. The only thing that throws it off is that this takes place _before_ the rebellion (this seems to take place directly following the argument Pink had with Yellow in that flashback, so Pink doesn't have a colony yet). And even then it still kind of works in a symbolic/metaphorical sense ('cause no matter how you slice it, Rose is still the gem Pink aspired to be).

[@DeyaBlossom]

T h i s .

[@aiiiia9971]

It makes even MORE sense now.

[@msssmouse]

Turned out to be really accurate!

You: "my voice sucks" Me: "oh it's okay nevermind :)" You: *actually sings* Me: *cries* It's not perfect it's true but DON'T UNDERSTIMATE YOU HOLY CRAP IT SOUNDS PRETTY FINE TO ME ❤❤❤

[@saladcaesar7716]

Not perfect... just like pink diamond

[@DeyaBlossom]

Jo Raj that was actually cute

[@cupkaesnake]

I'VE BEEN THINKING DIAMOND TIARA'S SONG WOULD FIT HER SO WELL THANK YOU

heck yeah!

[@xsweetiebloomx605]

@@mm-gz3hq They're also both called Diamond

[@LittleHatCat]

Someone asked for the lyrics so here: If I'm a diamond Then why do I feel so rough? I am stronger than stone Even that's not enough There's something jagged in me I keep making mistakes I thought that diamonds were hard Though I feel I could break Would you believe That I've always wished I could be somebody else? Yet I can't see What I need to do to be the gem that I wanna be I've been told my whole life What to do, what to say No gem has told me that There might be some better way And now I feel like I'm lost I don't know what to do The ground is sinking away I'm about to fall through Would you believe That I've always wished I could be somebody else? Yet I can't see What I need to do to be the diamond I want to be To be real diamond I'm meant to be

[@jotlampsawyer3122]

I LOVE YOUR SINGING! ITS BEAUTIFUL!

[@AmedeoMC]

BIG SPOILER IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN A SINGLE PALE ROSE! The Gem I want to be? If you don't wanna be Pink Diamond, just be another gem. What about... A Quartz? A Rose Quartz?

[@NakedWyverns]

Actually this was before we found out rose was pink

[@luanita307]

Dudd that was before

[@melodyperidot9158]

Your voice is flipping amazing! And the animation is great, you did good drawing pink, and Good Job!!

[@agentmynt]

Melody Peridot same

[@arceuswarlord2222]

[@SparkStylesExtras]

Agreed.

No proof that she was

[@talimlbcn]

Someone is watching this after "A Single Pale Rose" episode? This fits so well 😍 it's BEAUTIFUL!

[@michelleromans3958]

Talita Pereira Dias yeah I’m here and I’ve watched the episode with the different shoes than here

[@aiiiia9971]

Talita Pereira Dias ikrrr I'm moved!

[@michelleromans3958]

Aii iiA no she wore different shoes and honestly my soul is so dry I can’t even shed a tear on this

[@aiiiia9971]

MICHELLE ROMANS Well, I personally can't stand her canon outfit (least not on her) so I don't mind the change. This video came out before her lower body reveal btw.

[@alexia3993]

yes

[@doodleking1912]

Your voice in NO WHERE NEAR CHINGY!! IT'S BEAUTIFUL!! I LOVE IT!!

[@wisdomruelas8068]

"i wish i could be somebody else" well u got rose

OMG!! “ Would you believe, that I’ve always wished I could be somebody else? “ IT ALL MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW!!

SHIT THIS IS GREAT!Your voice is so beautiful and the animatic is amazing!Awesome work!

[@LittleHatCat]

aaaaaaaaaaaa

[@madamabis3432]

Dude...you HAVE to be Pink Diamond's VA! This...this is beautiful!

[@Creatorsan]

Brianna Louis if pink can sing like hatsune miku or her....I'M GONNA PACE AROUND MY KITCHEN FOR AN HOUR!! (no really I do that because I'm excited)

[@Creatorsan]

Dragongirl 98765 yup...WAIT YOU ALSO DO THAT!?

[@train_1]

i also pace when i'm excited xd

[@Creatorsan]

Final Phantasy great I thought I was the only one to annoy my family with it.

[@esketchy_294]

Brianna Louis LOL just imagine it :3

[@percisigmon5367]

And with the latest episode, this video is SO RELEVANT

[@aiiiia9971]

Nikki Nightwood ikkkrrrrr

[@kuppikake5062]

After the pink diamond rose quartz reveal, this is seriously hitting the nail on the head.

[@astrobookwormsinger]

I never realised how well the song fit Pink until now. I mean, Diamond Tiara keeps calling herself a diamond and it's all so perfect OMG. I love this. And of course, I love MLP and SU. Keep it up!! :D Also, your voice is angelic ♥

[@linnetgee8857]

This really fit in well with the great relieve of Rose Quartz really being Pink Diamond and her desired to be someone else and living on earth free with humans. P.S your sing is great

[@liv-uu1fi]

Well, technically she disguised herself as Rose Quartz, so she got *to be the gem that she wanted to be.*

[@Bubblessongs]

You know even with the reveal that pink is rose quartz, rose being in the back still works, like her inner anger at the situation was slowly building, and this was a major moment she took to heart in her development becoming the person they knew as Rose Quartz.

[@apersonontheinternet7572]

I think your singing is great ;>

[@LittleHatCat]

Thank you that means a lot to a nervous bean like me :')

[@1607lee]

i’m definitely no expert, but i suggest (if you’re going to continue singing) you try and make your voice a little more stable. it sounds a little shaky in parts. but hey it’s better than i’ll ever sing lol,, and the art in this is just stunning! i love the realistic style with cartoony aspects mixed in. keep up the amazing work~

[@LittleHatCat]

Yeah it is shaky for a couple of reasons. I had just healed from a flu and my voice was still a bit weak, but also it was shaky mostly because this song is in a higher key than I'm used to. I have a very deep voice and high notes tend to turn out forced and shaky for me if I don't concentrate or practice enough. And well then there's also me being nervous af and trembling while recording. I sing much better when alone but whenever someone is watching or I get the sensation of someone watching me I get cold sweat and I'm feeling rather anxious. Same has happened a couple of times when recording just me talking! Whoops a wall of text... But haha yeah the point was I agree with you and that's why I don't think I'm going to sing again on this channel too soon, not before I'm more comfortable with my singing or find a song that suits my voice better.

[@1607lee]

Hatteri ah, i understand. i can see how you might be anxious about it, but still, you have a lovely voice 💖 you just need (like you said) a bit of practice!

[@TwiDashFTW]

Hatteri also with your singing voice being deeper you could change the octave of the instrumental to help.

[@angelicat-m8236]

I like to think that that shakiness add a bit of emotion to her song. As if she’s frustrated in her self and trying not to break down.

[@alexia3993]

aagree

[@lemonicing7666]

You don't give your singing voice enough credit! It's good!!

[@LittleHatCat]

I'm so relieved to hear that oh dear thank you

[@VixeyFrost]

There was clearly a lot of effort put into the drawings for this animatic. I love it! It’s really nice to look at and not super rushed or scribbly. Great job!

[@TwiDashFTW]

Actually you're singing isn't that bad. I'd suggest teying breathing exercises if you're interested in singing. They could held you open up your airway. I'm not really a singer, but I enjoy it so I'm in choir at school and I learned doing breathing exercises is impartant. There may be other exercises you could do.

[@savanaztheblueberrywerewol2882]

TwiDash FTW so it is bad u said its Isn't THAT BAD soooo is it half bad? Half good idk I love it

[@dezjay8181]

Yea doing breathing exercises is ImPaRtAnT😂😂

[@eddgouldtomtorddabest7311]

It is impartant

[@TheMsaudacieuse]

Your animatic is just perfect with the new episode. It's like she wants to be someone else, like Rose Quartz.

[@ponygirl3.6mlp]

Plot twist: Diamond tiara is actually pink diamond

[@sadlobster1]

After the recent SU special, part of me feels this would be perfect for the Diamonds. Because after that; Blue, Yellow and even White's entire worldview has changed. They're beginning to question themselves, just like Diamond Tiara did

[@slimyfurby]

Pink singing "The pony I want to be" would be amazing

[@Jaydove2387]

I love your song and I am so happy that it exists. MLP/SU song parodies are amazeballs.

[@tarniabook3076]

I love your style! It´s so realistic, yet, for someone like me, who prefers more cartoony styles, it´s beautiful.

[@StellarTheDutchie]

I am literally in love with your artwork. I’d absolutely LOVE to cover this version of the song with your animatic. Wow.

[@rainoftime37]

I once compared Diamond Tiara to Pink Diamond, and I'm SO GLAD THIS IS A THING THANK YOU (now with the new episodes this fits even more and i love it,,) ALSO SHUT UP YOUR VOICE IS BEAUTIFUL???

[@dianapaulamaier]

she says she is not a good singer yet look at how marvelous the singing and the art are mashed up together!!!! so cool!!!

[@idkdude420]

This has a whole new meaning with the rose/pink diamond reveal.

[@Bloodmoon839]

I know I'm a little late, but I am so surprised by how good this is! This is the only thing of yours I've ever watched, as it came up on the side. I knew the art would be good from the thumbnail, but when you said it was a cover, I was expecting beginner's singing, but that was absolutely beautiful. Well done!

[@rosegirl3220]

This song fits so much more after seeing the latest episode

[@lollolitproductions3910]

Love the singing and also this adds up to the new episodes of S.U because it would make sense to why she wanted to be R.Q

[@tauto1492]

Since you got two thousand likes and twenty dislikes, I’d say that your singing was pretty good.

[@LittleHatCat]

lmao I guess so! The people have spoken :D

[@RetroNekoArt]

wow after the new episodes it fits so much better!

[@avabeyva]

You say your voice is cringe?! Dude it went so well with the animatic, it sounds so beautiful and compliments every frame drawn in this!

[@mystirica1850]

Is incredible how well this fits with the latest ep

[@lithiumlilac]

this actually fits really well with the new plot twist!! this is the best animatic ive seen in a long time, your art is fantastic and so is your singing!! 💖💎

[@MissKoiFishPonyProductions]

I agree with this comment section, you have a lovely voice my dear, a voice that matches the beauty of the art style you displayed in this animatic^^ You just need a better mic, more confidence in your voice and don't be afraid to be loud when singing out loud, to project your voice even more, and work on the editing a little when putting your singing with the instrumental in the back:) Anyway, keep singing and keep drawing my friend:) Thank you for combining my two favorite things: MLP and SU

[@jermaine1998]

I really loved te moment she looked up at her mural. Like it enphasided on the fact that everyone expected her to be different or "perfect" and it really hits her

Most amazing thing is that this still fits even after the new episode.

[@isleofdead1337]

And you summed up a single pale rose perfectly

[@icerules2473]

I adore how you designed the gem to be bigger and sticking out. I feel like it adds more realism to the characters design.

[@hunni_dew]

OKAY BUt like your voice is beautiful!! If you ever need any extra vocals, voice actors etc please do not hesitate to ask!! Your art is a blessing !!

[@scuffleswaffles2243]

This was amazing! :D Your voice sounds great and your animation is beautiful!

[@pelicandom4246]

Like you said, just use Rose Quartz as symbolism and this fits Pink perfectly! Amazing job!

Your voice really goes well with Pink Diamond in this video, keep it up! Absolutely love this and listen to it on a regular basis as part of my music playlist. :3

your drawing skills are amazing plus i love that u put rose in there, nice touch and OMG that voice what a talent

So much more meaningful now that we know who Rose is.

[@num1adhdninja]

Honest Critique: Yeah, the voice is shaky. It sounded like you were forcing the tremor a little. Your pitch, however, was on point consistently. And your first chorus convinced me that you have incredible potential for strength. It's your decision, but I'd love to hear you do this again.

[@blueoliv1017]

Thank you. My 2 favorite shows have finally combined, and its amazing

[@sammadi5790]

And then she changed to Rose quartz

[@cheyisweird1103]

Think of the flashes of Rose as her looking back at herself in her room or something
