Silver NoteHad a couple of people say they'd like to hear this re-recorded, so here it is - extended version with full production! Original plan was to get some vocals from the amazing FritzyBeat, but things haven't lined up yet, so for now I've done the vocals and we shall collaborate on something else in the future! Shout out to Makenshi who helped pre-listen! Thank you! Also to DeadPON3 who covered the original version :D youtube.com/watch?v=cBs2UJbz_-A
Lyrics: I don't know how I got on without you before. You make me smile. We'll hang out, play video games, and have some fun. Let loose for a while. Friendship is magic.
Honesty, kindness, laughter, generosity, and loyalty. These are the things I aim to be every day, harmony. Friendship is magic.
Though some days I falter, and some days I cry. I have to keep on going, the tunnel ends to reveal light.
Friendship is magic. I'm learning every day. Friendship is magic. Makes you smile! Friendship is magic. I know now, yes I know now, this is what it's all about.
Reach out and put your insecurities away. You'll be fine. A smile and friendly manner goes a long way, you'll find. Friendship is magic.
It's so easy yet so hard. To be the friend you know you are. But this is not the end, don't yet pack it in, 'cause just around the corner, another day begins!

Those long notes.. phew-wee! This has been a cool project to work on because the original by Evening Star is just so powerful and iconic. It really makes me feel proud to be a pony fan. It was also interesting to apply my own rock style to an orchestral piece. Hope you enjoy this duet between Sterling and me! *AJ salute*
Lyrics: We will sing together And the mountains will hear our call; And we will raise our voices Remembered forever, the Land of Equestria
We will dance through the country And the night and the day will be one; Holding hooves, we will unite As one mind, as one soul, the name of Equestria
Oh, Luna's night full of bright stars With the moon shining down on the land; Celestia's summer skies To guide us, to lead us, in ruling Equestria
We will live in joyous laughter With the love and the trust that we share; And the world will know the good times Glory and honour, the Land of Equestria.SDreamExplorerS & Silver Note - Duty (P@D Release)Silver Note2017-10-02 | More rock! Maud approved. SDreamExplorerS sent me a message after the last P@D about doing a collab. His music is awesome so I was very interested to see where it would go. He sent over a really cool idea which had a couple of distinct parts. My favourite is probably the delayed intro/outro lead guitar. I added verses and shaped it into an alt rock arrangement. We both wrote and played different guitar/other parts and lyrics. It was really great working with him and we both hope you like the resulting track! This along with many other new tracks are available on the new Ponies at Dawn Anthology album, which comes as a digital and physical release with a best-of compilation too.
Key: A Minor, BPM: 116. Remix pack (WAVs and MIDIs) available by request :)
Lyrics: Right now
What's wrong? Do you need someone to talk to? You know we're always here for you Saw you staying up late at night Who are you writing to? Let go
When you looked out at the crowd Thought I saw more than just surprise I can't pretend to understand everything But I know how it feels when you realise
This curse of immortality's my burden to carry But life without you by my side looks meaningless and scary I wish I could confess my fears, I'm losing my sanity I'm so afraid our friendship days will drown in eternity
Please be honest with me Don't walk away, can't you see? This is too close
You can't let it stop you Or us you'll truly lose I don't want to loseSilver Note - ShatterSilver Note2017-06-24 | Woo man. This morning was a blast tuning into the Ponies at Dawn live release on Ponyville FM. Go check out the album and show all your favourite fandom artists some love! poniesatdawn.bandcamp.com/album/guardians. This song is inspired by the S4 finale.
Also, check out my other non-pony music channel Tempting Tomorrow (well um.. if you want to *fluttershy voice*). youtube.com/temptingtomorrow.
Lyrics: The crown will fall with a clatter, The faith of nations to shatter, The hunter outsmarts his prey, Speed the last vestiges of day.
Oh who can stand, Against my mighty hand, Even chaos rules to my command (command).
Last chance! Will you bow?
In the end, they will know, will you bow? A true king fit to rule, will you bow? Holding to weakness, deluding each other, will you bow? Oh, just like my brother, will you bow?
Your trusted guardians, defeated, Do you see what defiance brings? See them helpless, locked away, Burn the world, usher in the new age.Silver Note & Liquid Harmony - Small TownSilver Note2017-02-20 | I've been brought up as a city boy, but I love the outdoors and the idea of small country towns and close-knit communities. When Liquid Harmony sent me the instrumental for this I knew I wanted to write about Ponyville, with inspiration from the Apple family.
Lyrics: Watch the sun go down, With a cider in one hoof, After the hard work that we've done, Oh we're for the setting sun.
On the close of another day, Working hard for our pay, Feed our stomachs and share some laughs, Oh sweet Belle, I think you know me to well.
The town is lit with pretty voices, Everyone knows everyone, Singing, yeah that's how it is, In a small town like this.
Watching as all the young folks, Dance hoof in hoof, And show us all their merriment, Oh that's how the song went.
Makes me know it's all worthwhile, When I see you turn and smile, Can't ask for much more than that, Job's done, I pull down my hat.
The stars are out ever so brilliant, And under their lullaby, I drift off into slumber, Oh tomorrow brings us some more summer.
The great blue sky will be out, We'll put our backs down to a shout, Working together the only way, And so the old song plays.Silver Note - StarsSilver Note2017-02-12 | I'm back! And it feels good. You may have heard me mention this song before - well I finally got the arrangement right (to my ears anyway!), so here it is. Inspired by the idea of Octavia writing a song for Vinyl.
Lyrics: Can't we sit and stare? Instead of chasing a million other nothings? The night, the night, so magical. The night, the night, so beautiful.
Look outside, look up at the stars, A beautiful world, and it is ours. Look outside, you might find, That your desperate heart, is unlocked from the inside.
Lyrics: Walking down the street, she looks my way and time skips a beat, So proper, so elegant, makes me feel like an elephant, Everypony knows who she is, her talent in every stitch, Not just generosity, she's the element of fabulousity.
Not just anypony, she is a rarity. Whatchya got, whatchya got, whatchya got, she is a rarity.
Rising up, impressing fans, attention to your demands, Looking for diamonds and fame, boutiques open she's on top her game, At the gala and dressed to the nines, oh darling that's simply divine! Couture and high end fashion, outfit to survive a Rainbow crashin'.Silver Note - RunSilver Note2016-10-09 | A little while ago I heard about submissions opening for the new "Voyager" Ponies at Dawn album. Of course, it was shortly after I'd already released a track called "Eastward"... Ah well, consider it an unofficial extra for the album from me. So I got to work recording a new song instead with the Gauntlet of Fire episode in mind. It's not so much about physical journey; it's about maturing.
I'm currently nearing completion of two other new songs too, a punky rock song collab, and an electronic song. And I still have a soft melodic song called Stars sitting in the background - not sure if that'll ever be finished though.. can't seem to get it to where it needs to be. Anyway, stay tuned for more music soon :)
**** Wooooooaaaahhhh man, P@D have outdone themselves again. Seriously, there's some amazing music on the new album! It makes me so happy to see so many talented artists putting out music like this. And Jyc Row's voice!? Did not expect that, epic! Get it for free or for a donation at: poniesatdawn.bandcamp.com/album/voyager
Lyrics: Something big is happening, and power shifting, out in my homeland. I cannot just walk away, I've heard them speak, of what they would betray. Sometimes you have to leap, despite the void, and hope you've made the right choice.
I may never be able to go, back home, I may never make it to the end, of the race, But I must put it all aside, oh, I'm not gonna run and hide. (Run and hide).
I am only small, but so starts change, and I feel that it's starting to snowball. Being brave is more than facing the fight, it's standing for, what you know to be right.
Maybe I won't have to win, maybe someone else, is finding a new way to begin.Silver Note - EastwardSilver Note2016-07-03 | Noble Jurists! I humbly present this song dedicated to the journey of Austraeoh. To not leaving anyone behind, and not looking the other way. No idea what I'm talking about? You're missing out - check out the Austraeoh fimfic series: http://www.fimfiction.net/story/25966/austraeoh. (Warning: it's reeeeeaaallllyyyy long and it has some pretty dark themes at times). I'm currently halfway through the fourth book, Odrsjot. It's kinda like The Lord of the Rings, but with ponies. Hence the cool Tolkieny map which was drawn by Sinrar and coloured/labelled by Swan Song: http://sinrar.deviantart.com, http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Swan+Song, artwork: http://i.imgur.com/skhIalC.jpg. Extended map: http://sta.sh/029lypxr2hvd
Lyrics: That you would stand there beside me, hold my hooves. Tell me it'll all be okay. I'm not the monster. That I'm not the one to blame. The cuts run deep, but you'll survive, we're your Eljunbyro. The wind to take you beyond, to the dark side. And the armory most midnight.
Together we'll fly eastward.
The ancients know of what's to come, yet they're silent. Living in a bubble, so much chaos I never knew. Of anger and regret, despite the miles never forget. I see the trees and cry into the red. Through it all, the nightmare, much bigger than me. I'll never give up, I am loyalty.Second ChannelSilver Note2016-06-06 | Tempting Tomorrow - youtube.com/c/TemptingTomorrow
Still don't like speaking on camera :PSilver Note - Tanks for the MemoriesSilver Note2016-04-30 | A while ago I read a post about how the MLP episode "Tanks for the Memories" can be interpreted as a metaphor for the loss of a loved one. I sat down thinking about that; what it means to lose someone. I picked up my guitar and started playing.
(A while later...)
I woke up early this morning to jump on PonyvilleFM and tune in to the official launch of Awakening by Ponies at Dawn on which I'm honoured to have been featured with this song. And wow.. I am very humbled to be a part of such an incredible project with so many talented musicians working so hard to put their very best into the album. The album is free to pay what you want - go and get yourself a copy at: poniesatdawn.bandcamp.com/album/awakening
I was happy to see many familiar names and artists in the PVFM chat at the launch today, and believe me, there is some awesome music on this album!
I have a few more announcements to make. I have released an album on Bandcamp titled "Unicorns and Soundwaves" which includes my non-collab songs (and this one) currently available on my YouTube and SoundCloud so that they can be downloaded as a collective. There are no extra/unreleased songs. Oh and yeah, I have SoundCloud now :D
Lyrics: I will never forget, the day. Don't let it be true, don't let it be true. Why must we, let go, of those we love? It's not, it's not fair. Don't let it be true.
I know you're here, Present in my dreams, in my thoughts, all around me, I will never forget you.
I'm not ready to say goodbye (why must we), So don't go (let go) where I can't go (of those we love), I need you here (it's not, it's not fair). I need you here (don't let it be true). With me.
Please don't go. Please don't go.Silver Note - Let It GoSilver Note2016-03-12 | I promise more filling lyrics next time. Maybe.
Lyrics (with line breaks so they seem more substantial): Let go, let loose, just dance, in the flow, let go, let loose, just dance, let's go.
Get up and dance.
Let it go, get up and dance. Let it go, take the chance.
Let go, let loose, be free, don't "worreh", be happy, in the flow, let's go.Silver Note - Sonic Rainboom VIPSilver Note2016-02-21 | Thanks to HolyKop (and others) I've decided to remaster and re-release this song. Hopefully this has better audio quality but still preserves the spirit of the original. And yes the FiM remix is also still... coming.. eventually.. haha :P
Lyrics: There's nothing to fear, just open your ears, louder, louder.
Super speed now, like a sonic rainboom, faster, faster.
'Cause we're flying high, higher, higher.
You know you know it's yours to take. Things will never be the same. Train hard, till there's nothing left, Till they know your name. There's nothing to fear, just open your eyes, feel the adrenaline pumping.
Everyone is watching you (watching you). Can you feel the wind rush under your wings? (Your wings). This is your time now (your time). Time to show the world (oh).DecodingTheCodes & Silver Note - ShineSilver Note2015-12-31 | I received a message back in the beginning of 2015 asking if I'd be interested in working together on a song. Almost exactly a year later, I've made a new friend and together we've produced a track. DecodingTheCodes wrote the lyrics, arrangement, vocal melodies and performed the role of artistic director. I played the instruments and recorded it all. He has asked me to include the following message.
-------------- I know I haven't been as great of a person as I am and should have been around the Internet - I've been spewing a lot of mean things about the fandom, to those that recognize me. I just wanted to say sorry, as, at times, more often than I'd like, I've let my judgement get the better of me. I still meant most of what I've said, but how I said them, how I pushed away all considerations of empathy and respect, how I let my anger blind me into saying what I said the way I said them, was wrong. And I apologize for that.
I know sorry's not gonna cut it, but I'd just like to say that, even if this fandom has had some flaws, I still thank it for everything it has done for me. I've met a lot of good people - people that have went out of their way to shape who I am, and to help me become who I am today, and who I can become. Those people are a big part of my life, and, even though I know they deserve more, I'd like to dedicate this song to them.
To those that are taking the time to read this, thank you.
Lyrics: ~Verse 1~ The world is mean and cruel And takes everyone around it as a fool It condescends a man And causes damage every time it can
It'll never face the fact It denies that it's nothing without Empathy and soul You'd only fail if you let it know
~Pre-Chorus 1~ But even though you're beaten down and ostracized You still manage to bring light to our dark lives
~Chorus~ 'Cause even if the world around you falls apart The passion keeps you strong still burns there in your heart The feelings that you give with what you could create It dissipates and diminishes hate
I could name a thousand times when you were in the wrong But I'd name a million more when you made me strong A tight-nit bond of guidance courses through my veins You show that living life is not in vain You overwhelm my pain
~Verse 2~ It's never satisfied In darkening people's lives It always finds a way To throw away the love and care you gave
The world's a lion's den But now I know that it could mend Your smiles make me see The future of what everything could be
~Pre-Chorus 2~ And so you stay strong despite the trials you face And it seems like there's nothing that this world can do
~Bridge~ When every person here just makes you frown Remember you've no reason to feel down For after all, you fill with joy those around you And every single word you speak is trueSilver Note - Lets Build Snowponies (Live Acoustic)Silver Note2015-12-23 | Here's something I put together and thought I'd share. I wanted to play this on a ukulele but I don't have one.. Take note Santa ;) Found this art: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-b6gSGRIojk0/UO3y75VsalI/AAAAAAABOTY/4wRz0WdTdDQ/s1600/snow_pony_by_speccysy-d4heoag.png.
There is a lot of music coming. A LOT. I have a track ready for the next Ponies at Dawn (rock/electro - extremely excited to release this one!). I have a track ready for Balloon Party (electro). I have a collaboration track being released on my channel on the 1st of Jan (pop/rock). I'm working with FritzyBeat to re-record my song Friendship is Magic. And I have two other WIP tracks. Sooooo, yes. Musics.
Enjoy and have a merry Christmas / Hearth's Warming and New Year!
Lyrics: The land is white with snow, and hearts are warm despite the cold. Presents and traditions shared, and a story to be told.
So won't you come and play? Won't you come and play?
Let's build snowponies together (together). Let's build snowponies together (together).
Spirits are high in Ponyville, you can hear carols singing. Decorations up on everything, and hearth's warming eve in full swing.
Young, old, black and white, we are together. No matter who or what you are, we are together.Thank You!Silver Note2015-12-23 | Just wanted to say a few things and show you my room/studio :) Yes, I was nervous to speak on camera.
Unfortunately I can't find the original source for the Spike artwork :(
Twilight Plush by Snuggle Factory: http://snugglefactory.deviantart.comSilver Note - Midnight ClubSilver Note2015-09-06 | Sorry for the delay since I last posted up a song! I've been busy with work and something I've been told I should probably do.. um human interaction or something. Anyway, have some chilled EDM with grimdark lyrics about well, you figure it out. Enjoy :)
There's a track I've been working on with FlightRush that has a similar-ish feel to this one (but with less subtle pony lyrics). Expect to see that on his channel soon :D
BPM: 125. Key A Minor. Remix pack (WAVs and MIDIs) available by request :)
Lyrics: Feel the cool night air, As you walk alone, In your ears a beat, a pulse in the ground, Leads to a club down an unknown street. What's a drink to ease the mind? To all else I am blind, Beautiful mare shines like the moon, She leads me to the midnight room.
She kills at the Midnight Club. At the Midnight Club.
Fountain of youth and the power to move, Celestial bodies of the night, It comes at a price, Just 'cause it's sweet doesn't mean it's nice. Two sides to a city, The public face and the dark and gritty, So the music plays, and taps fall, The loners leave no trace at all, The club is closed when it's said and done, And the street disappears before the sun.
Tell me is it madness? A necessary deed she's justified, A diarch plays her dangerous game, The princess of the night she became.Silver Note - Winter Before HarmonySilver Note2015-04-15 | I've been talking about composing a dramatic orchestral track since I bought my studio gear mid last year. Finally I've decided to rise to the challenge. Coming from a pop/rock guitar background having no experience in this genre, this was certainly outside my comfort zone and I have much to learn - constructive feedback very welcome! I doubt I'll post too many tracks in this genre, but you can count on there being the occasional one because I really enjoyed composing this. (And I love dramatic music! I may or may not be a huge TSFH fan...)
The inspiration for this piece came from the episode Hearth's Warming Eve.
It had been a long time since ponies had known peace. Declarations of war made in blindness by the ignorance of a few. The cold set in and as diplomacy broke down civilization was nearly lost forever. But in those final critical moments a miracle occurred. Against all odds, the power of an unlikely friendship summoned a magic that would fan the flame into driving out the windigos, unifying the races and restoring peace to the land.
Shout out to Nevel Yashgi and KarateKat who helped pre-listen! Thanks guys! I changed it a little since the last you heard it, hope you still like it haha :D
Apologies to Rudolf, I am getting around to our song now! :P
BPM: 130. Key C Minor. Remix pack (WAVs and MIDIs) available by request :) Just discovered the C pentatonic scale sounds quite good on guitar as an arpeggio over the chorus.. huh.
There are no lyrics this time (unless you write them ;)Silver Note - More than one kind of magicSilver Note2015-04-06 | Had this piano melody lying around. Decided to play with it and boom this comes out. Meh, I'm not gonna argue. The lyrics are written with Twilight Sparkle in mind. Enjoy.
Lyrics: Don't be afraid, you're more than you know. With these friends you've made, you're never alone. Sometimes you'll fail, but that's how you learn. It's not the end of the world, wisdom must be earned.
It was always going to be tough road, so hold on tight, 'cause here we go!
Stay strong, don't give in yet.
Trust in yourself but remember you can always ask for help. There's more than one kind of magic, in your friends you will find. Take a step, then take another, soon you're on your way. To find your place, to find your role the part you're meant to play.
We all make mistakes, don't give in yet.Silver Note - RiseSilver Note2015-03-02 | Sometimes war is unavoidable. This is a song I wrote from the perspective of the Equestrian Guard in the line of duty. It would be terrifying knowing that you may die in battle, but at least you could die knowing that you've done your part to protect those you care about.
Lyrics: We swore, our lives, to Equestria, this is, a call to arms, soldiers, rise!
Equestria is our home, Equestria we will defend, We'll fight to protect, Those who can't, Equestria is our home, Equestria will not be lost.
No matter, how many we face, No matter, we must stay, No matter, how strong they are, No matter, for Equestria.Silver Note - DetonateSilver Note2015-01-31 | Time for some hardcore! I was up late just messing around with different synth sounds and I came up with the basic idea for this song. I've kept coming back to it and adding little bits, and now it's done!
Next song might be a darker/metal track, not sure yet. Eventually I'll write a low-key relaxing song haha.
Lyrics (how can I possibly remember them all?): The girls are dirty dancing, The bass is like a tremor, This place is out of control, As the music's taking over.
So show me what you've got, See the crowd jump up and down, Speakers that shake the room, Tonight we aint Earth-bound.
Detonate this.Silver Note - Chasing MarksSilver Note2015-01-07 | Hope you all had a good Christmas and New Years! This song is inspired by the CMC. It's about not knowing where you fit into the bigger picture. It's partly frustration, and it's partly determination - you're not gonna let life just slide by you until it's too late - it's now or never to start living.
The track morphed a lot over the course of its construction, but I knew from the start that I wanted a rock song with plenty of guitars. No genre-bending this time. I have been triple tracking the vocals on my previous songs, but for this one I decided to try mono and just play with effects to make it sound stereo - I prefer this where possible because it sounds tighter. I've tried this before but haven't been able to pull it off. This time I think I have. I started this song in early November, so, yeah, I'm glad it's finally finished :P On to the next song now! Making all of this music has been such a thrill, I love doing it. I think I've found my mark.
Yes I tried to Photoshop the background so it looks like "CMC" is written in the dirt..
Lyrics: You don't know where you fit in. Everyone seems to know who they are, But who are you? Who are you?
You have tried everything, but time will tell, what you always knew.
It is now or never, there's no tomorrow, It is now or never, not gonna wait, It is now or never, there's no tomorrow, It is now or never, not gonna wait.
You feel like a ghost without a haunt, Watch the world spinning round.
All you want, to be a part, Find your place, to find your mark. But you're a fool, yeah you're a fool.Silver Note - AdventureSilver Note2014-11-09 | Another song before Xmas! I can't believe how quickly this song came together. I was listening to This Day Aria (probably my favourite from MLP) and You'll Play Your Part, and was inspired to write this. As I was writing the lyrics I was thinking of Cadance and Shining Armour in the Season 2 Finale.
As per the observation of ZombieGuy8800, I tried to stop bobbing my head.
It's a bit of an odd mix of acoustic and electronic elements I suppose, what do you guys think - does it work? Also I'm considering doing either some remixes or covers, any suggestions?
Lyrics: Everything changed, the day you walked into my life. You put the colour back into my eyes. Nothing can break this bond, I am yours forevermore. You'll be my princess and I'll be your prince in shining armour.
This is the beginning of a life-long adventure, and I get to spend it with you. Your love is all I need, now and forever, two hearts, two words, just say I do.
You'll never know how much you mean to me. And when we're old and gray, I will love you still. The splendor of castles and the starry night sky don't compare to your beauty. I know our paths will never stray, with you at my side I have no fear.Silver Note - Imbalance (Nightmare Night 2014)Silver Note2014-10-25 | Nightmare Night! This song is from Luna's point of view during her transformation into Nightmare Moon. Originally I was trying to go for a mix of Linkin Park and Evanescence, but it came out quite different, which I like anyway. Hope you enjoy it!
Unfortunately I'm going to be on musical hiatus for a while now, but I'll definitely be back in the new year!
Lyrics: (Beautiful night) Our heart is growing colder, (colder) and we do not care to stop it. (Stop what?) We can not fight the voices in our head. (The voices in our head). It's time to punish. (Let terror reign) (Nightmare)
Undeserving subjects, (subjects) your princess is evanescent (evanescent). A trove of fury awaits (fury). (Let terror reign)
(Punish) (Let terror reign) (Beautiful night) Far too long. (Punish) In her shadow. (Do what you want now, anything you want now) But now, we are taking over. (Do what you want now, anything you want now. There's nothing to hold you back) Your precious sun is gone. (Do what you want now, anything you want now) The night will reign forever.
(Nightmare) (Let terror reign) (What's wrong Luna?)Silver Note - Sonic RainboomSilver Note2014-09-27 | Phew, this song took way too long to produce. I decided upfront to try to go for more of a dance feel. Inevitably, I ended up being unable to resist putting electric guitars in it. @xargos thanks for your feedback. I spent more time on the drums this time around.
Shout out to Gabzi, an inspiringly positive person and new friend of mine :)
Lyrics: There's nothing to fear, just open your ears, louder, louder.
Super speed now, like a sonic rainboom, faster, faster.
'Cause we're flying high, higher, higher.
You know you know it's yours to take. Things will never be the same. Train hard, till there's nothing left, Till they know your name. There's nothing to fear, just open your eyes, feel the adrenaline pumping.
Everyone is watching you (watching you). Can you feel the wind rush under your wings? (Your wings). This is your time now (your time). Time to show the world (oh).Silver Note - Inside My HeartSilver Note2014-08-24 | So.. this is a song I wrote after reading My Roommate is a Vampire. I finally went out and bought some proper studio gear, but I've had no sound production training, so I had to learn a hay of a lot to end up with this, and it's still not mixed and mastered as well as I would have liked, but I just don't have the experience yet, so yeah. Here it is. I really like the idea of mixing elements of different genres - in this case, synths with electric guitars (and guitar solos more importantly!). Speaking of guitar solos, this one was a challenge. I really thought I was a better at playing guitar until I attempted that. Also, I've never "rapped" before. I had too many syllables and I thought I'd try something different.
Lyrics: Falling downside upside down. Who knew our worlds would meet like this? Connected by music, startled by love. Taking a chance, here we go!
I see a way into the sound. Lose myself where I'll never be found. There's another world behind your eyes. (I can see it) A thousand feelings rush inside, and I've never felt more alive. I want to know you deeper.
More than just a friend I know, there's more to it than just goodbye, hello. The spark inside is igniting, can you feel it light up all around? This is right where I'm meant to be. Nowhere else no in history. I can see the stars colliding, I can see our worlds colliding.
Your heart, my heart, our hearts, beat!Silver Note - Friendship is MagicSilver Note2014-07-20 | This song is inspired by My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I've been meaning to write a brony song for a long while, and finally got around to it today. Think it turned out pretty well, except for the fact that I need to buy actual studio gear / software instead of using my camcorder and Sony Vegas. This was originally a ~4:30 song, but I cut it down to it's current length to be more Pop-y. I wanted to write a simple song similar to those featured in the show. Anyways, hope you all like it! Have a great week and be kind to one another :)
Extended version lyrics: (Verse 1) I don't know how I got on without you before. You make me smile. We'll hang out, play video games, and have some fun. Let loose for a while. Friendship is magic.
(Verse 2) Honesty, kindness, laughter, generosity, and loyalty. These are the things I aim to be every day, in harmony. Friendship is magic.
(Bridge) Though some days I falter, and some days I cry. I have to keep on going, the tunnel ends to reveal light.
(Chorus) Friendship is magic. I'm learning every day. Friendship is magic. Makes you smile! Friendship is magic. I know now, yes I know now, this is what it's all about.
(Verse 3) Reach out and put your insecurities away. You'll be fine. A smile and friendly manner goes a long way, you'll find. Friendship is magic.
(Breakdown) It's so easy yet so hard. To be the friend you know you are. But this is not the end, don't yet pack it in, 'cause just around the corner, another day begins!
