THESE ARE ACTUALLY FIRE!! My Little Pony Songs Reaction

[@blueteller]

Don't be fooled by the fact that this is a "kids" show: this is actually a FAMILY show. Meaning, it has something for everyone. It's very self-aware, the humor is actually funny, and the lessons are quite wise and relevant! ...Of course, it also has its corny moments, but still. There's a reason this show's so popular: because it's actually *good.*

[@Jirodyne]

Indeed. That's actually something I really liked in the older seasons, that were sadly phased out in the later ones. The lessons they told, most can be applied even to adults. Especially today, where most people are locked inside, anti social, mostly interacting through the internet. So socially stunted, don't have many friends, and not get to meet as many people if they worked outside of the home, or went out to gatherings, parties, parks, bars, and so on.

[@SunIsLost]

True

[@SBaby]

@@Jirodyne I don't know. The show was pretty consistent with lessons being applicable to all ages throughout the entire series run, and the season premieres and finales typically introduced a major threat, raising the stakes and adding tension. There were a couple sour notes, but for the most part the show hit when it needed to.

[@Conorator]

@@Jirodyne I'm fine with it, because they chose to value character development over educational value. And they still show other ponies learning lessons, like the cutie mark crusaders.

[@Switchthefairytailfan]

Wow that's a really good way of putting it

[@matrixster6238]

As someone who watched MLP when it was in its prime, it takes a few seasons to get to where it’s really good. The shift from more kid-oriented stuff to actual bangers takes place around season 3-4, and that’s noticed in the songs as well.

[@Fourger14]

Season 2 was already bringing the great stuff with Discord and Chryssi.

[@eagleangel5568]

Yeah the start is fun time then later LORE lol

[@Succatag67789]

Seasons 4 and 5 are truly this shows peak imo

[@nightmarepegasus4141]

It's subjective for sure but firsts season are really good too

[@Jirodyne]

@@Fourger14 Indeed. The first season was them testing things, very basic, sloppy, and slow Mostly focusing on slowly introducing the characters, their lives, and figuring out what they want to do with the show. But Season 2 kicks it right out of the park and really set the show onto the road, as they now had things set up, characters that they just needed to deepen more, and more fun stories to tell.

[@MattTOB618]

I've already said this a few times on other people's reactions, but it bears repeating here: I love This Day Aria, but not for the reason you might think - it's because it's two different characters singing an Aria, which is defined by only having one singer. But it still counts as an Aria, because the villain is disguised AS the other singer! It's so unique, and so clever!

[@warbird333]

This Day Aria is the reason I became a fan. A Canterlot Wedding part 2 was the first episode I watched followed by part 1, followed by me bingeing the first 3 season everyday at the library before bingeing numerous reactors for those first 3 seasons waiting for Equestria Girls and season 4.

[@EPICFAILIER]

Someone pointed out as well, the song uses a false Cadence which is: a musical cadence in which the dominant resolves to a harmony other than the tonic. It's really clever to have Cadance singing about a false Cadance with a false Cadence used in the music.

[@devonm042690]

@@EPICFAILIER It's more than that. The false Cadence character's parts use a deceptive (false) cadence, while the actual Cadance character's parts use an authentic cadence.

[@RHTQ1]

The musical pun is like a cherry on top :)

[@mrtoast244]

@@warbird333 Chrysalis was the first villain in a show that 9 year old me actually hated lol. Like, fully was just over with. The way everyone believed Twilight was at fault just made me rage, but she had pipes though (Cadence's pipes)

[@SebastianWeinberg]

There is _loads_ more. Over the course of 9 seasons, the main show (where the third song came from) had plenty of songs, ranging from "okay" to "phenomenal" in a plethora of styles. The spin-off set in a human world, called _Equestria Girls,_ (where the second song came from) has mostly generic but catchy teen pop, ranging from "meh" to "Ooh, surprisingly good", and the theatrical movie (where the first song came from) has a couple of pretty good songs as well. The biggest problem you'll encounter when taking recommendations is that _a lot_ of fans tend to recommend songs that were impactful *_in context_* within the plot of the episode or movie, but are actually not very interesting to listen to, out of context, either because they're musically nothing special, or because you can only guess at what the hell is being sung about. For example, you'll probably see people recommend a song called "In Our Town", because it's an important villain-statement in the episode it's from, and the character who leads it becomes very important - but the song is _boring!_ That's, in fact, the whole _point_ of the song: it _literally_ advocates passionless mediocrity, and as such is a bog-standard march rhythm without any flair or interesting flourishes. And yet, you'll always find fans who - blinded by what the song comes to mean in context and in retrospect - will recommend it to others and then wonder why it fails to wow them.

[@knightelm]

I've noticed this as well, I hope they see this!

[@amandaslough125]

I agree with the sentiment but I would argue that I always like showing off Our Town because it is a great example of deviance from expectations because it's a kid show talking about such an adult concept. Plus, it's not always that you get to hear Barbie singing as a villain. But it certainly isn't a wow banger of an example.

[@RHTQ1]

Couldn't agree more with the original comment. @amandaslough125 Even years later, I still occasionally do a double take at Starlight's voice XD

[@anerdwithaswitch9686]

In Our Town is great in-context as a narrative piece; it does its job of being a propaganda song. But in a vacuum, it's pretty underwhelming compared to the rest of the show's bangers.

[@SKai2609]

You hit the nail on the head. I’ve seen so many people try to recommend the last song of th series to reactors, especially those that stated they will be watching the show

[@connorr8071]

There are SO MANY MORE!!! Honestly, if the story in Open Up Your Eyes and This Day Aria caught your attention, then you might want to consider actually reacting to the show itself. You'd be surprised by how great it is! (Especially after season 1, but that's still good as well.) A bunch of other MLP songs I'd recommend are The Magic Inside, Friend That You Need, Flawless, Winter Wrap-Up, You'll Play Your Part, Unleash The Magic, Pinkie's Present, Smile Song, I'll Fly, and Better Way to be Bad.

[@TheCanderemy]

I'll Fly is so underrated

[@alyssabullock6421]

Kinda sucks they'll never see the show anyway, because they rely on "like goals" to actually engage in things :/ And they spoiled themselves of such big, important songs too...

[@benoit2003]

Want to see more? There are so many more. You should really watch the series directly, you would be surprised how awesome it is !

[@paunazeljkovic7459]

almost everyone start from songs give them time

[@matrixster6238]

The first song was from the first MLP movie, the second song was from the spinoff specials of EQG(Equestria Girls), and the last one was from the end of Season 2 of the main series.

[@Conorator]

The MLP movie is actually the last MLP movie funnily enough, all 4 Equestria Girls movies were made before then (and seem pretty likely to tie in with canon, since if Equestria Girls isn't canon then that means Twilight never needed much time to adjust to the use of her wings)

[@LesserLord]

They should definitely listen to the fan made songs like ‘lullaby for a princess’ and ‘the moon rises’. These are the best to come out of the fandom

[@clairepage7350]

Someone mentioned songs you should listen to and I agree with these ones! Flawless, Winter Wrap-Up, You'll Play Your Part, Unleash The Magic, Pinkie's Present, but gosh there are loads more I want to reccomend. Weird Al has his own song in this as well called Super Duper Party Pony if youre into the Weird Al stuff!

[@GunmetalGator]

Just know... this is over 200 episodes with movies and specials. Dare to enter the pony hole and you might not recognize yourself once you exit the world. (It's worth it!)

[@devilsadvocate2844]

Since you seem to enjoy story in songs, here’s one from the fandom that will blow you away: Lullaby for a princess The entire story is told in the song, and spoils nothing that isn’t in the premiere of the show. As a side note, the animation by warpout took them 3 years of work, and it shows.

[@QueenTwivineSparkle7805]

AGAIN AND AGAIN. YOU FORGOT THE MOON RISES!

[@PrincessCozyGlow0957]

THE MOON RISES, SILLY.

[@SBaby]

I would also recommend The Moon Rises as another song that is in a similar vein. The Moon Rises and Lullaby go very well together.

[@Kellobytes]

I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY YOUR REACTING TO MY LITTLE PONY SONGS. I AM SUBBED FOR THE FAIRY TAIL SERIES, BUT HOLY SHIT. IF YOU REACT TO MORE MLP SONGS, I'LL SNORT THAT CONTENT, I'LL INJECT THAT CONTENT.

[@layanaolayan5776]

same

[@in_all_honesty7434]

"Under Our Spell", "We Will Stand For Everfree", "Flawless", "Unleash the Magic", "You'll Play Your Part" are all absolutely amazing ones with awesome vocals and harmonising! If you were interested in looking at fan-works with good and interesting story (that is basically canon to MLP) I REALLY suggest "The Moon Rises" and "Lullaby for a Princess". You'll understand why. Great reaction, guys

[@blackblade1373]

Yes, there are many more great songs from this series (fyi, that second song where everyone was humanoid is a semi-spinoff series that takes place in an alternate dimension). I would highly recommend you guys just watch the show, though. Aside from the amazing flash animation, its actually got a lot of great character arcs, humour, pop-culture references, and even a few epic fight scenes scattered throughout the seasons. Not to mention, after the show uses up the usual moral lessons that other shows have, MLP actually gets into some heavy topics such as living with a disability, accepting redemption and owning past mistakes, and even uses a couple episodes to explore grief and death. Did I also mention there are also some legendary voice actors in the cast? Some notable members include Terra Strong who played Raven in Teen Titans, and John Delancey who played Q on Star Trek. Seriously, if you guys agree to react to this series, I will most definitely subscribe to you.

[@CloverPandaQ]

The first one is from the movie in 2017 and was sung by Emily Blunt The second one is from the human spinoff The third one is This Day Aria from the s2 finale. This show hits so hard with songs and the show may be worth it for them alone.

[@Julieno2412]

the first was the movie that is 100% cannon after like season 6 or something like that, the second one is a spin off serie, and the last one is actually the original serie

[@SBaby]

3:10 - Also just to put things into perspective, the creature she met in that cave is basically the Omega Weapon of this series. It's not something you want to pick a fight with. Even Twilight, who's one of the most powerful spell casters in the world won't mess with it. Yeah, Friendship is Magic is a bit more hardcore than what you might be used to when thinking about My Little Pony. Subject matter dealt with in this show includes (but is not limited to) the following: - Abandonment Issues - Social Anxiety - Cults - Stress - Racism - Death - Redemption - Change There are more, but those are the ones I can think of in 30 seconds or less.

[@rafaelmatos5851]

MLP songs are SOOOOO GOOOOOD! MLP: FIM is like the best iteration of MLP ever!!! If you, by chance, start to watch it, you will love it as well. Those songs you just watched are just a little bit ahead of the series. The first song is from the MLP: the Movie that happens between season 7 and 8. The second song is from the second movie of its spin-off series: Equestria Girls (which happens in the human world where each pony has a human counterpart), happening chronologically between season 4 and 5. The third song is the one that is the closest to the beginning, being from the season 2 finale.

[@symzae]

Even after so many years I still hold this show dear to heart. Probably my favourite cartoon of all time, as a kid I understood it differently and I was drawn in by the cute and wholesome aspects. But now after 6 years I’ve started to appreciate it differently.

[@marwahwaqas291]

I’m imagining them actually just reacting to the whole show and I love it

[@haku8135]

I could give you deep lore and background information. Instead I'm gonna give you a silly fact for each song. First song, Open Up Your Eyes. From the theatric MLP movie, it's a good movie would recommend. Anyway, onto the silly fact. That pony singing, the villain, is named Tempest Shadow. The fact is, that's not her original name, she was born Fizzlepop Berrytwist. She changed it for obvious reasons. Second song, Battle of the Bands. From another movie, you guys sure seem to like the movies. This one's from Rainbow Rocks. The evil girl with the blue hair and pink skirt is named Sonata Dusk, the silly fact is, she loves Tacos. Third song, This Day Aria. This one's actually from the televised series, good job. So, the pony singing, the ruffled one the other one is something else. Her name is Princess Mi Amore Cadenza. Which means, My Love Rhythm. She prefers Cadence.

[@Cookiesandcreamss]

Bro I would cry if you reacted to this show lol (tears of joy)

[@thatguy3362]

yeah.. crying of laughter 💀

[@matrixster6238]

Tears of joy…right?

[@Cookiesandcreamss]

Yeah

[@thatguy3362]

there is a difference between laughter and joy tho so which one is it pick one

[@RaptorNX01]

Liquid pride

[@LowbrowDeluxe]

Dudes just speedran the entire fandom. "Wait...it's actually good? Hold up...why is that pony LOOKING at me like that? Whoawhoawhoa that's not a pony, I've been betrayed. Wait...it's still good?"

[@dragonwaz]

For context, if you want it. The first song was from the one and only My Little Pony Friendship is Magic movie that follows the actual ponies. The second song is from the "My Little Pony Equestria Girls 2: Rainbow Rocks" movie. Equestria Girls is a spin off that got so popular they made it canon near the final seasons of the show. It takes place in an alternate reality through a mirror portal where most characters have alternate human versions of themselves. The only pony characters in the human movies (of which there's like 4 or 5 and a bunch of shorts) are the purple one (Twilight Sparkle) and the orange and red one (Sunset Shimmer). So for future context, if you keep going, in Equestria Girls there are two Twilights. The pony one and the human on that shows up from the third movie on. The human Twilight wears glasses. For the third one the Characters singing are Cadence the actual pink alicorn that is supposed to be marrying the main characters brother and the evil one singing is Chrysalis an evil Changeling queen. Changelings in the show are bug ponies that shapeshift into other ponies to steal love (their food) from that pony's loved ones. She's posing as Cadence to marry Shining armor, steal his love, and turn off the shield spell he is holding over the Capital city to attack the city and cocoon all the ponies and drain them of their love like a horde of locusts.

[@axeze223]

I recommend Best friend until the end of time, Flawless, Awsome as wanna be (The full version) and bab seed

[@DDayJayke]

A bit late but a good MLP song I know is called "Bats" part of the MLP soundtrack if you search it up

[@Buggaboo222]

I want to recommend some songs that don’t get recommended a lot, and are underrated! - magic inside of you - on my own - art of the dress - I’ll fly - Lunas Future

[@daisiathepotatoangel1273]

Omg yes! I'm so glad you guys gave this a shot this is my whole childhood. The music, the story line, and of course the characters have brought so much joy. There can be dark and sad moments in the show that you may not expect but overall very wholesome. I would definitely recommend watching it. (And the movies). I'm also glad you didn't judge it before listening to the songs because it's a show full of ponies. Some people usually judge it with the belief "Ponies are for little girls" which is not true at all. Anyone of any age can watch it. Anyways songs I would recommend would be Winter Wrap Up, Smile, Babs seed, Apples to the core, You'll Play Your Part, The Magic Inside, Flawless, and Welcome to the Show. 😁

[@6-dpegasus425]

I am absolutely *loving* the attention MLP is finally getting after being hated on for years, now people are finally seeing how insanely good the snow is, ESPECIALLY the music!

[@sonnypeach]

Hello! Some of my personal favs are "Babs Seed," "Flawless," "A true, true friend," "apples to the core," "bats," and "awesome as I wanna be!" :)

[@Doc903Shorts]

Best part in the movie is when Capper grabs Spike and uses him as a flamethrower.

[@area52ron]

The first song Open Up Your Eyes is from a movie

[@TigirlakaLaserwolf6]

'Luna's Future' is an underated gem imo. 'Babs Seed' 'Winter Wrap Up' and 'Apples to the Core' are personal faves of mine, haha. But if you wanna watch the episode 'This Day Aria' is from (and it's my personal favourite episode) it's the S2 finale two-parter, 'A Royal Canterlot Wedding'

[@TheCommenterDragon]

I hope you guys decide to do more mlp song reactions, Because here are some songs i suggest- 1. A Kirin Tale 2. A Better Way To Be Bad 3. Your Heart Is In Two Places 4. Friends Are Always There For You

[@Wolf_Nanaki]

"Open Up Your Eyes" is one of my top favorite songs to come out of MLP. Emily Blunt did an incredible job as Tempest Shadow.

[@devonm042690]

Other people are making recommendations, so here's mine: The Smile Song, Pinkie's Lament, Pinkie's Present, I'll Fly, Apples to the Core, Our Town, You'll Play Your Part, Better Way to be Bad, Under Our Spell, and Unleash the Magic. By the way, when you inevitably go looking for The Smile Song since a lot of people want it, stay far away from Smile HD. Despite the name and the fact that it uses The Smile Song, Smile HD is grimdark fan content.

[@animefun7703]

Even to this day. I am still obsessed with these ponies. One of the many shows that bring you happiness 😂❤

[@Themythicallad]

The second song is not from My Little Pony, but from my little pony Equestria girls, because Hasbro made another show all adventure movies at first of the My Little Pony characters but as humans so that’s where they’re human

[@ladyfable]

Whenever I see people react to the show or the song, and they are surprised by how much they like it, I get so happy. This show means so much to me, and it's so great to see people taking a look at it

[@endlesshaze5647]

Really enjoyed your reaction. Of we talk about rainbow rocks (second song from it) i would totally recommend "Welcome to the show". It is final song, literally the song battle, and it's amazing.

[@annasvideoz]

„We have three. If they are more, let us know.“ LMAO. That’s a whole joke there.

[@raychumon]

im 100% going to tune in if you watch more because this series has some CRAZY bangers!

[@PlutoIsntReal_]

Oh my god, please, PLEASE react to "You'll Play Your Part." It's my all time favorite MLP song to date, its just so angelic fr. Also, my second favorite "A Kirin Tale" is also SUPER catchy. Both of these songs are later season songs, so the show had a really long time to get their musical groove before this, they are fantastic!

[@VeeAllar738]

If you're looking for more great songs I'd recommend the fan animation/song 'lullaby for a princess' it'll honestly blow you away. And then one from the actual show is 'You'll play your part' it has great harmonies. One that's sorta like the second you watched is 'awesome as I wanna be' and my last recommendation would be 'bab seed' or I think that's what it's called. It's upbeat and real fun. I also recommend Tangled the series and Centaurworld music if you're looking for mind blowing stuff.

[@QueenTwivineSparkle7805]

[@area52ron]

The second song is another movie where they go to an alternate universe where everyone is human

[@thebeardedbrony9586]

You should definitely wants all of the series. We need more people reacting to the show, spreading the word. Welcome to the herd! Surprisingly, you picked all villain songs for this particular video.

[@brookerickettson4950]

First song was from the the movie. Theater release had a animation “glow up” and a slight redesign of the pony models: mostly more eye sparkle, but also a pinching of the nose/mouth to make them cuter....never mind equines don’t have distinctive noses/mouth from neck. Character writting took a few seasons off, even if the film fits store lines in between later seasons. Second song is from the spin off series where everyone but Spike has human forms

[@nataliabiela9463]

I recommend the series (9 seasons) also the second Song is from equestria girl ( ponies as girls) the equestria girls are movies ( 4 movies and specials) and the first one should be watched after the end of season 3 of the series.

[@roggerspider6964]

More people Is reacting to this show and I'm here for it. The songs, some villains, the plot... I hope you react to more songs

[@robertstuart480]

The first song you watched is from the "My Little Pony" movie from 2017. But "My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic" is a tv show that started in 2010, and ran for a decade.

[@rosestarofroseclan8094]

These were all villain songs, so I hope the lighter protagonist songs don't fall short for you because their amazing in their own respect. I suggest listening to "The Magic Inside", "I'll Fly", and "Time to be Awesome". Though if you want another good villain song, "Better Way to be Bad" and "Say Goodbye to the Holiday" are pretty fire too imo ^^

[@teloplia1316]

Love seeing your guys reaction to this 😂

[@Mike_Dubo]

"Friendship is Magic" is one of those times where the potential for a kids show can shine, when proper effort is put into it. Like many others, I didn't expect to like it as much as I did, and, while the it has its ups and downs, its overall a very pleasant experience. I have to say this show was to "My Little Pony", what "Prime" was to "Transformers": A reboot that serves to entertain the then current generation of children, and their families, with quality storytelling and animation.

[@FoxxFilmzz]

100% recommend "The Pony I Want to Be", "Luna's Future", "Let it Rain", and "The Magic Inside". Regarding fan songs, "Lullaby for a Princess", "The Moon Rises", "Discord", and "Together, Against the Sisters"

[@zayne8331]

I would love to see you react to more songs. There are so many and they are so damn good.

[@ShizuruNakatsu]

The "Cafeteria Song" from the first Equestria Girls is way more like High School Musical xD I actually instantly thought of that back then when I first seen it.

[@cherrygrabber7172]

Surprisingly cool villains in MLP: FiM, especially that last one pretending to marry.

[@robertstuart480]

The second song is from one of the "My Little Pony: Equestria Girls" movies. 'Equestria Girls' is a spin-off set in a parallel universe...all the same MLP characters, but as Humans...ish.

[@adog733]

I'm with you guys when my friends in college told me to watch this show I was skeptical. But both the story writing and the songs were epic, especially in the later seasons when they get a whole DBZ-level battle.

About 8 years has passed but I still love listening "this day aria"

[@SunIsLost]

10:50 "This day Aria" is one of the best shows BANGERS

[@RHTQ1]

A few non-plot favorites that you didn't just do would likely be Flawless, Winter Wrap Up, Smile, and a few more Siren songs. I always have to recommend Lullaby for a Princess too (fan made and incredible)

There are sooooo many good songs, it will take forever to list them all. But, the best ones in my opinion are Welcome to the show, the Smile Song, Bats, CHS Rally song, Unleash The magic, We will stand for Everfree, Cafeteria Song, Dance Magic, Laughter Song, Babs Seed, One Small Thing, Better way to be bad, TIme to be awesome, Flawless, Say goodbye to the holiday, Luna’s Future, A Kirin Tale, Fit Right in, So much more to me, The goof off master, The spectacle, The magic inside, Pinkie’s present, Seeds of the past, Cheese Confesses and Pinkie’s lament. … Yeah, there are a LOT

[@equinatordarkhorn2088]

There are SOOO many more. But, would recommend Flawless, You'll Play Your Part, and The Magic Inside for starters. Enjoy!

[@GCRavn42]

4:23 The first song is from the 2017 MLP Movie 🎥🍿. There’s a whole series ( Friendship is Magic) that has 9 seasons, a Spin-off series of movies and specials as well as a YT series EQG. Interesting that you’re looking at this show.

[@Unicorngal-th1ks]

The show is basically not for kids, but young adults at that point it’s got some dark themes and story and lower, but I really enjoy it even though I’m a adult and a women most of the fanbase are men lol 😅but women like it too

[@WaffleDragon]

0:47 Yep, that's how it starts.

I just looove to see people enjoy this show like this

[@alyssabullock6421]

This show is CHOCK full of amazing music!! I'm happy to see more people checking it out :) It's actually a really enjoyable series too, truly! There's a reason its following is so big

[@mediummunchkin8891]

MlP girls was the alternate universe where they were humans, the first song was from the movie, the lesser quality ponies are from the actual show and that ramps up in later seasons!

[@zpoohead]

One of my favorites is actually a short song, Luna's Future. It's from a Christmas episode recreating A Christmas Carol. It's dark and forbidding.

[@zolline]

I adore my little pony 😂 in middle school I literally went on a binge of the series for a straight month, everyone in the house hated it

[@owlfeather1736]

I will now explain all the explanations for the videos Open up your eyes, the purple pony got into a fight with her friends and got trapped by tempist (the red haired one) and she’s planning to take over there land for her horn back Battle of the bands, the 3 ponies that enter the room in the beginning are actually sirens feeding off the others anger to get enough magic to take over that world This day aria, the pony with the green magic is impersonating the one that looks scrapped and beat up to also take over the land I think (I haven’t watched that episode in years)

[@ronnoc841]

theres a huge amount of fan made music id suggest for you guys to listen to: -any mlp music by forest rain (great to be different , join the herd) -Nightmare night (the sfm version for visuals) -Wonderbolt by dbpony just a few i could name

[@lofvee]

The show definitely started as a kids show but matured cause of the fandoms impact on the show and become alot more adult like

[@rozenaa.]

I would love to see you guys just watching the show tbh, after season 1 the plot is sooo much better and the songs are so good.

[@MetaLatias5]

The art style of each song clip was different because they were all from different media: The first song was from My Little Pony: The Movie from 2017, which takes place between seasons 6 and 7 of the show, I believe and of course had an upgraded visual style for being an actual movie released in theaters The second song was from one of the Equestria Girls movies, which is like a spin-off series of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic about a parallel universe where all the pony characters are humans in high school The last song was from season 2 of the My Little Pony Friendship is Magic TV series, which has 9 seasons in total All of those, plus a few more specials, all have a whole bunch of great songs and are definitely worth checking out (especially if you already got invested in the stories connected to those songs anyway, pff) I'd recommend starting from the beginning, meaning MLP FiM Season 1 episode 1 of course, but if you don't mind some spoilers you could also check out the movie first to see if you would actually like the characters, humor, style, etc Or just look up more songs XD but it did sound like you guys got curious about the stories with the unicorn from the first song and the wedding from the last one

[@LesserLord]

‘Welcome to the show’ is actually one of my favourites

[@luisaguayo1112]

Damn didn't expect this this is great 😂

[@ssokssoki7]

I can't help but suggest mlp fansongs like ‘lullaby for a princess’ and ‘the moon rises’. They are AMAZING and little reactions have been done to them, and I especially want to see people's reactions to the two songs without having known the show prior.

[@FallenGhoul]

The KZbin algorithm has worked its magic and has brought the pony nerd to your comments section. Here to give some context for the three songs you’ve reacted to. Which are all coincidentally villain songs. So without further a do Open Up Your Eyes is the main villain song for the MLP original movie released in 2017. The movie itself takes place roughly between the 7th and 8th season of the show. The basic story is that after being captured, our main character Twilight Sparkle questions the main villain for the movie, Tempest Shadow why she’s attacking the ponies, when she herself is one. And as we learn it was because as a kid, Tempest was left to fend for herself. Being performed by British actress, Emily Blunt, the song hits hard. Battle, otherwise known as Battle of the Bands, comes from the second movie to MLPs spin off series, Equestria Girls. Basic premise, Twilight travels to an alternate universe where everyone’s human. The song Battle is the first song performed by our main villains, The Dazzlings. The Dazzlings themselves are sirens, banished from the pony world into the human world long ago. They use their singing to cause tension and animosity between people, feeding off the negative energy to gain power. After learning of the magic found in the high school, they turn the schools musical showcase into a battle of the bands to cause people to be hostile and gain power till they can find the magic source. And I am very bias in thinking the Dazzlings got some of the best tracks in the series. And finally arguably one of the most popular songs in the series, This Day Aria. Coming from the season 2 finale of the main series, it has probably the easiest premise to follow, which you two were pretty much on the nose of. A duet between a fake bride and the real bride. Both portraying Princess Cadence, who’s big wedding day has arrived. Not much more can be said about it without hitting major spoilers. The song also gets a reprise later in the show if you ever listen to it. It is a truly stellar song, and what caught my attention for the show way back in the day. That now concludes this explanation. MLP has a plethora of songs to chose from, with 9 seasons, the spin of EQG series, the movie, and a number of specials it is a very packed series. I do hope to see more reactions of songs in the future.

I remember when Equestria girls was first announced and everyone was against it and now Everyone loves it because of the songs.

[@Regimentblade]

theres TONS more! glad yall started with a banger with Open Up Your Eyes tho!

[@jessiemoore6649]

I forgot how hard that wedding song went. Holy shit, man.

[@albertgerges3290]

You should definitly react to the movie the show and everything else, its so goooood

[@Querez8504]

I never would've expected this from you guys lol

The 1st song would have been from My Little Pony: The Movie (2017) that was between the 7th and 8th seasons. The 2nd song was from the spin-off series movie My Little Pony: Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks, that was released between the 4th and 5th season of Friendship is Magic. While the 3rd song was for the seaon 2 finale of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

There are SO MANY MORE bangers from this series. These were all villain songs from the series, but I recommend checking out the protag's songs too! "Smile" is always a good one for Pinkie Pie. As for the other protagonists, "Art of the Dress" or "Becoming Popular" are a good ones for Rarity and you see all of the rest of the Mane Six in Art of the Dress. "Raise This Barn" is a fun one for Applejack. "Find A Pet (May the Best Pet Win,)" is a good one for Fluttershy/Rainbow Dash. Then Twilight some several rememberable numbers such as "BBBFF," "The Failure Song," and most notably, the theme song. There's a trio of kids call The Cutie Mark Crusaders who are on the hunt to get their cutie marks which a pony earns when they discover what makes them special. They have so many AMAZING songs and they're my personal favorites in the series. One of which is "Hearts as Strong as Horses." Other amazing songs from them include "Babs Seed," "The Perfect Stallion," "The Vote Song (Vote for Pip,)" Which The Vote Song, also duos as a "villain" song as the school bully also sings. Then you have the ensemble songs that either feature all Mane Six characters, a small group of characters, special one-off characters, and/or maybe plus some. These include, "Winter Wrap Up," "The Gala Song," "Bats," "Apples to the Core," "You'll Play Your Part," "Let the Rainbow Remind You," "The Magic Inside," "You're In My Head Like a Catchy Song," "Flawless," and "We Got This Together," " "What My Cutie Mark Is Telling Me" and "A True, True Friend" you will get tons of requests for, but for a good reason. They're good songs, but they NEED context. So I wouldn't start off with these two if you were just planning on listening to a few songs first then watching the series. However, if you want more villain/villain-ish songs, there's "Unleash the Magic" from the spin-off world where the pony's are humans (like in the second song), Equestria Girls: The Friendship Games. There's also "Under Our Spell" which features the same trio you seen in the second song as they have another song later on in the movie. Then there's examples from the actual series (like This Day Aria) which are "The Flim Flam Brothers," "Flim Flam Miracle Curative Tonic," "In Our Town," and "Say Goodbye to the Holliday." Disclaimer for "In Our Town" and "Say Goodbye to the Holliday:" Both are songs that are much better with context of the episode. Our Town just to understand the villain, the Goodbye to the Holliday isn't what's actually happening in cannon. It's a play off of A Christmas Carol. So I know this was a lot of suggestions but if I were to give you my top ten from these songs, in no particular order: "Smile," "Art of the Dress," "Hearts as Strong as Horses," "Babs Seed," "Winter Wrap Up," "You'll Play Your Part," "The Magic Inside," "Unleash the Magic," "Flawless," and "You're In My Head Like a Catchy Tune."

They started with the movie? The movie with another style entirely. GREAT.

[@drulad43]

I'm an action movie type of guy, but my little sister kept watching this and ... I guess its hard to deny that some songs were ... are 🔥 And as more seasons came out ... some epic scenes also came out

[@nightfox4832]

a lot of people diss the show at 1st but then they get to the songs and are surprised haha. the songs are amazing. fan songs are amazing as well. i recommend lullaby For a Princess.

[@arielvaleriano6126]

And the fact it makes us be ourselves makes me happy because it supports us to be happy and be ourselves because of the cafeteria song

[@v.v365]

There’s so many songs in MLP and a surprising amount of them are amazing

[@ISAFMobius18]

I went into this series like most people thinking it was a "kiddie" show but must to my surprised it had everything i enjoy about good animated series. Good writing, comedy, deep and emotional plots and of course amazing songs and music. BTW- my favorite song of the series is The Magic Inside. its short but packs so much emotion into it.

[@RaptorNX01]

can we just take a second to admire the guts it takes to have a movie about colorful cartoon horses and then show a child getting mauled by a bear?

[@JasondaUltima]

I'll explain a bit about the changes in Artstyle The first song was a song from the latest MLP:FIM Movie so the production value was way higher and looks better The second song was taken from one of the Subsequent movies of the series called Equestria Girls (Specifically that song is from the 2nd of the 4 movies) where it's basically MLP but their Humans The the last song is a song from the Actual TV Series MLP:FIM (My little Pony: Friendship is Magic) which is the main part of the series

[@Infinite-sj9mj]

If u plan on reacting to more MLP songs, here's some suggestions: You'll play your part Say goodbye to the holidays Under our spell Welcome to the show Unleash the magic I'm just a pony Flawless You're in my head like a catchy song Lullaby for a Princess (fanmade) The moon rises (fanmade)

[@tomsparrow1823]

There are some incredible songs in this show (and even more so sometimes from the fandom but that's a whole other story) and the show itself ran for a whole decade and was so successful they set up the new generation of mlp to be a story set in the world of this one that came before it, which is something they've never done before. Normally in a reboot they completely remake the setting but this time they just set it in the far future of the same world. All of which is to say, friendship is magic rules and deserves the hype.
