It’s nice that canonically, the CMC did stick together well into adulthood.


Absolutely fantastic as always Replacer! It's musicians like you who make me proud to be proud to be involved in the music of this fandom. Keep up the amazing work :)
-DreamHuk (of The Beatle Bronies)


God, this is just... perfect. It captures the emotions it portrays perfectly. I hear in the entirety of the track, the memories that lay grayed out, the things they've just let fall away...
If I cried at things like this, I would be bawling here.


This honestly feels like something from Pink Floyd's earlier works. The instrumentals just... scream "Atom Heart Mother" to me. And that's a good thing, a very good thing.


Rather than just saying this song is good, I'll say what I like about it.

You wove the original lyrics and melody into the words at the end, creating a moment of past,future and present all in one. It really just drove the message home. That is what takes a song from being merely good, to a new level of quality. You are going to go far.


Oh crap I've been listening to this song all day and I still can't sing half a verse without tearing up. I love how emotional your lyrics are, despite being a pretty simple melody it still gets into you.


I've spent 5 years looking for this song and the album. I feel so nostalgic listening to this songs again.


Dang, I was on the edge of shedding tears to this, man. Maybe I'm getting soft... or maybe this song just messes with emotions like crazy. Either way, this is brilliant, and I love it.


your music is of such high quality I always love listening to it


Everything about this. The soft lyrics, the beat, the whole gentleness of the music, even the picture, I just love it. It just reminds me of ends and new beginnings, and all the philosophical things that you never really think about.
Would they really drift apart if they found their cutie marks...It makes me sad just thinking about it...


This is sad, joyful, bittersweet. Man it messes with my emotions like crazy. This is stunningly beautiful.


Feels.

For the first time in months about pony, all the feels.

Replacer, why is it that I ever strayed from your music?


A friend I've known for years just left for college in another country a few days back.
 I just can't stop listening to this song.


@GuitarBoarder99 INORITE!

Another brilliant track dude! I absolutely love what you did with the motif of the Cutie Mark Crusader theme song. It's just brilliant what you did with it.


Sad, but absolutely amazing as always. +1 like on Facebook and Youtube.


I actually thought that it was pretty refreshing to hear songs that doesn't focus on the lyrics too much. The voice too can be musical and this is a great example of that.


This is really gold, right in the feels ;w;


what a lovely song. I haven't listened to enough of your stuff lol. I sorta wanna remix this now.....


@dominian42 Actually, I really enjoyed this music. I just think that you should sing a bit louder. Sometimes I just couldn't understand what you said without reading the lyrics, because you weren't singing loud enough. Aside of this little problem, the music is amazing. Keep up the good work.


I'd like to hear a barbershop quartet version of this song. Sort of a Bioshock Infinite-esque feel to this. I don`t know anymore.


This is the kind of music that makes a bad day awesome.


After hearing this, i started to think about the future of the CMC's, and honestly, i would really like that after the CMC's get their cutie marks, another "generation" of CMC's appears and starts to do the same that the first "generation" was doing, but, with some guidance of the first CMC's. I don't know, maybe an Official Cutie Mark Crusaders Club? (sorry if bad english)


How is this from 2012? How does it still make me cry?


the beginning reminds me of spyro, a lot.
Love this, makkon is right, this sounds bittersweet.


@Unit645 This song is more of,when you find what you're good at(growing up)you find different things you prefer,and sometimes friends drift and the process is difficult,but it's life and everyone grows up.


i love people like you always looking on the bright side of things just to make others smile. this is why pinkie pie is my favorite pony. This song now has a new happier meaning to me and for that i thank you.


your music is so tranquil I love how soflty you sing


I was expecting a cute song... I was not prepared. I WAS NOT PREPARED!


As Yoda would say: "Bittersweet, this song is. Amazingly awesome, this song is."


imo this song is really well mixed, i like the vocals as is, but thats just me =P


> New song by replacer.
> Drop absolutely everything.
> Stuck in head for weeks.


i know each of the CMC has their own talents that they're completely oblivious to which will probably become their cutie marks, but wouldn't it be cool if their cutie marks all turned out to be their crusader symbol, and their special talent is helping others find their cutie marks?


Found out about you not long ago, very good stuff.
Thinking about perhaps doing a cover or two about you, if your okay with it of course.


OMG this is awesome but I am sad to say that I can't listen to it more than once because it makes me feel depressed thinking about it. :'( But keep it up :D


this song is so beautiful, and so touching, but its so sad...


So did I. When I said "heavy metal," I was referring to the low rumbling voice often associated with the genre. Pardon for the lack of clarity.


I don't know what it was but this morning I listened to this is just about made me cry. It made me think of all the friends I have now and the things we do and try and make. But nothing will last forever and when we all find what we want to be I'm sure we may go our seperate ways.


This topic always gets me thinking. If they did succeed in their crusade, that would give them too much finality and they would never be the same fillies we all know and love, but if they don't, it will be a depressing thing to know that they never succeeded. I hope the writers are really up to the task of developing them more.


Ok debo de admitirlo, esto es muy triste :'(


Wow, I've been listening to this for like 2 weeks, but I've only decided to check the lyrics now (my listening english isn't really good). I feel like I'm about to cry T_T


I don't care if they remain blank flanks forever. If finding theyre cutie marks means that such a strong friendship is broken, I'd much rather have them go on a lifetime crusade.


>see new song
>Download
>listen to it
>love it


It kinda remids me of Vince Guaraldi's "Little Birdie" from A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving.


My theory is as follows: Season 4, CMC. Gets their marks. That ties up that. Remember Babs spreading the CMC in Manehattan? I think the Origional CMC will spread the group to fillies and foals who are also blank flanks. Just a theory


Does this sound like something YES would make to anyone else?


My god, yes. I just like... gaaah, so many feels. D:


I think everyone can say I'm right, the cutie marks of the cmc should either stay blank forever or it be that picture


maybe little too calm for some, i still like it tho, its interesting


The next one better be upbeat, but this was still good.


Replacer, Y U ALWAYS BRING TEAR TO MY EYE?


This is rather... sad. And yet all too possible.


Did you know if they "Crusdaded No More" the show would be all over... ;(


You have left me feeling sad and regretful for liking the CMC... *Subscribe*
Amazing song.


Whoa with that slow-tempo who nees upbeat? Awesome!


i felt so sad for some reason after hearing this song


"I swear my next tune will be upbeat."
Bullshit and we all know it.


@MrTyzone well, it's alright to me
Btw, not to seem silly, but I think I've had a dream with that song yesterday. I woke up feeling really, really sad about something that I did not remember and could not explain, and with that song stuck in my head. Even though I haven't even listened to it that day
That was one strange feeling


Oh man why did you have to do this right after that last episode? so bittersweet, like.


@MrTyzone Thanks, I appreciate the feedback


I think they're all going to get the same mark


@MrTyzone yeah, I know that, but it rarely works for me. Probably only when I wake up right after the dream


This song just makes me feel terribly sad...


The music industry is hardly a stranger to a guy to sing this kind of song. But if you want to believe guys should only sing heavy metal, you're free to do that.


@Kirshach Next time you have a dream like that but can't remember what it was, try not to move at all. Usually moving when you just woke up is the best way to forget all the things you dreamed about, even the little things that happened a few seconds ago to you. And I wish I had this kind of dream. :o


@MrTyzone nonono, this song is never supposed to be sung loud. it just wouldn't be so atmospheric


Maybe they'll help someone else find their cutie mark and get their cutie marks in finding cutie marks...markception.


It's been so long. Where did the days go?


I made lyrics for this song!
It's at my channel; I wanted to make it as a video responce, but I can't.


Nah it~ it's ok... just liquid pride....


I can't understand the lyrics, and I'm not going to read them yet, because I don't want to be sad...


I think you need girl hermonics in this. The male voice in it sounds odd, but girls might do better. Very good song though!


@makkon06 Thank you and everyone for letting me know I'm more than just a technician.


to the person who disliked: if i wasn't almost crying from the music i would hunt you down. aww f*** it. *hug*


My device doesn't support this kind of audio file :( that's sadder than the song


When I graduate, does this mean the little 3 amigos thing I have set up with ny friends will be gone?


@ericnrivers Sorry to disappoint :) I think this stuff is out of my system for now


Wait... this is from 2012? This episode actually happened...

They got their cutie marks but they have yet to grow apart from it...This was a very pessimistic headcanon I had going on here, I remember writing this song directly after A Pony Like Me which was all loneliness and isolation. I <b>think</b> I'm getting on much better these days ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I can't believe it too me almost a year to get that.


You're telling me I wasn't listening to the Beatles? Bullshit.


@andyk10013 I just paused Yes to listen to this and I thought exactly the same thing.


@Kirshach I don't ask for an ear rape either. I understand it is better if the voice doesn't sound too loud, but here I just don't think it is loud enough.


+Divine Spein They each have individual talents, but it seems their passion is something different.  Their passion is in crusading, trying new things, and helping others learn more about themselves.  In this way, I feel the cutie marks are very fitting.

+replacer that just about sums it up. It's all they're good for since they can't seem to figure out their real talents anyway d:

+Ariah1O1 yeah but pfft so much for what I thought would happen. Cutie marks in being the cutie mark crusaders, that's a....surprisingly tidy solution to the problem I posed here :p


@Unit645 But that's all in the future,don't dwell on the past,but don't wonder about the future.


@McMaster94 WHY CANT YOU JUST LEAVE OUR EMOTIONS ALONE!


@Mathadawg *make me proud to be involved (wow, I can't type today) XD
