Oh my gosh I love this. All of your stuff is so soothing to listen to. And this one is especially epic. The way it progresses is so cool. Good work man, I'll be telling everyone to come listen to this!

Niiice. I'm getting some interesting vibes similar to Mass Effect's soundtrack, both in the feeling of the sound and the mood this creates. A certain stressful urgency and a feeling of epic scale and finality, particularly pronounced in Mass Effect 3. The difference from your usual tone does feel good for depicting Philomeena catching fire and burning up before being reborn again. Hmm... Could you try doing a followup dedicated to Philomeena's rebirth? Would be awesome. Well done, as always!

this song is amazing. it feels sort of like a song you would hear near the end, when something cataclysmic is about to happen within the story, perhaps the ending scene or some horrible event. faved, keep going.

So...listening to this song at the dead of night. Not a soul on the highway, and having this song play in harmony over the rev of a engine taking your car at 80mph... The only lights are from your headlights and the occasional amber street lamp. Epic driving time.

Twilight Sparkle is a great character and all, BUT... she should not be Princess of Friendship. Most of you reading this may be shocked, but here is why she should not be Princess of Friendship.


There is still more I need to say, but this is all I am doing for now. This took me at least 2 days to do this all. And yes I know about Minuette, Twinkleshine and lemon heart. Those three have a bigger role in why Twilight Sparkle should not be Princess of Friendship and should ONLY be Princess of Ponyville. But for now as I research those three, this is what you get. There will be more later after I am done research those three. So this is not my final version of what i need to say about this. So yes I will talk about what I put, but please read the whole thing before you put anything. And no I will not talk about Minuette, Twinkleshine and lemon heart yet. Not until I am done research those three. And I can’t fit all the things I need to say here, so cheek the other comments below this for more of what I say here.


Season 5, Episode 26 the Cutie Re-Mark part 2. At the end, Twilight and her friends sing a song. In the song, one of the lines they sing is... "Your friends are always there for you." And yes this is after season 5, Episode 12 Amending Fences. BUT... in the episode Amending Fences, at the beginning Spike points out that she was a bad friend by saying... "Come on Twilight, just look at the wall. Do you see any photos before we moved to Ponyville? Look at you know, the Princess of Friendship." As we pan to the wall, we sadly do not see any photos before they moved to Ponyville. Before I move on I would like to add this. Spike brings that information to Twilight like he always knew that she had friends before Ponyville. SO... Spike gives her plenty of time to amend her previous friendships from Canterlot. Now moving on. In Amending Fences after she finds three of her Canterlot friends, she pores her heart out saying sorry for leaving and that Ponyville changed her. Even before she pores her heart out saying sorry for leaving. Her Canterlot friends tell her... "So what brings you by anyway? All those times you came back to Canterlot, you never had donuts with use before." And yes they do forgive her, but not all of them. She was still forgetting about Moon Dancer. In till her Canterlot friends show Twilight the school and at that point she remembers Moon Dancer. When they do find Moon Dancer, all she say's is... "WHAT DO YOU WANT? I'M TRYING TO STUDY." then she slams the door in Twilight's face. Twilight did the same thing to Spike in the very first episode. So you could say Moon Dancer was trying to seclude herself away in her house. But because of Twilight going to Ponyville and not to Moon Dancer's party... Twilight makes Moon Dancer lock herself in her house and makes her shut everyone out of her life. I mean that Moon Dancer tried to open up by inviting her friends to her party. But as you can see in the episode Amending Fences, the pony she wanted to be at her party... DID NOT SHOW UP. And the only one that did not show up... was Twilight. So up to that point you could say, Twilight and Moon Dancer were best friends. Because of Twilight not showing up for Moon Dancer's party... Moon Dancer put's up a wall and secludes herself in her house so no one would hurt her like Twilight did... And for the whole episode, Moon Dancer does not even forgive Twilight for not showing up at her party. I would not forgive someone if I put my guard down to go throw a party and my best friend did not even show up. It took Twilight all the time from Season 1, Episode 2 to Season 5, Episode 12 to say sorry to Moon Dancer and finely show up to her party. I don't even know how many days that was. Twilight didn't even remember her Canterlot friends when it would have been helpful. Like in Season 2, Episode 3 Lesson Zero, Twilight has to find a friendship problem to wright to Princess Celestia about. But she can't find one, so she goes crazy. Well she had a friendship problem to wright to Princess Celestia about the whole episode. If Twilight would have just remembered her Canterlot friends, told them why she left and why she didn't go to Moon Dancer's party. Moon Dancer would have forgiven her a lot sooner. But before she even becomes princess, she made amends to all the wrongs she did. BUT ONE. So... she can't be Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship before season 5 episode 12. Just because she is princess, doesn't qualify her to be, Princess of Friendship. If she was such a BAD friend to Canterlot friends for so long. But in season 4, episode 2 Princess Twilight Sparkle… Princess Celestia, Princess Luna and the mane 6 see a box grow out of the Tree of Harmony after Twilight puts the Elements back on the tree. The box needs 6 keys to open it and sadly we don’t see what the keys are. In till… season 4, episode 25 Twilight's Kingdom. Discord try’s to help by book-marking the mane 6’s journal on the parts where it shows them embracing there element. But not Twilight. So they go to the box with the objects that showed them embracing there element. Again, not Twilight. Once there objects turn into the keys and get placed into the key holes… Twilight gets a message to go to Canterlot at once. Once there, she gets all the alicorn magic. After getting all the alicorn magic, she just goes home. BUT… that’s where it goes wrong. Yes the episode was awesome, but she would of probably of gotten her key a lot sooner. If Twilight would of remembered Moon Dancer and tried to fix things with her. She would of probably of gotten her key a lot sooner from a NEW/OLD friend, Moon Dancer. And yes the fight between Tirek and Twilight was one of the best fights in the show. But in the fight, Twilight’s house gets destroyed. She could have gotten her key if she would have remembered Moon Dancer. She could have also kept both her house and her castle, if Twilight would have remembered Moon Dancer and tried to fix things with her.
That’s not all. In season 2, episode 11 Hearth's Warming Eve, Twilight and friends go to Canterlot to put on a play. It’s about how Equestria was founded and also about harmony and friendship. Twilight, Applejack and Fluttershy during the play talk about how friendship and harmony is better than arguing about who gets what. But in this episode, it’s quite funny hearing Twilight talk about friendship when she can’t even keep the friends she had when in Canterlot. I do get that Minuette, Twinkleshine and lemon heart are used to Twilight not wanting to do much with them. But Moon Dancer is quite the opposite. She is not used to Twilight not wanting to do much with her, as we see in season 5, Episode 12 Amending Fences. So you see why it’s quite funny hearing Twilight talk about friendship in this episode.

I know I been talking about Moon Dancer a lot and saying how Twilight was a bad friend to her. Yes I could start talking about Minuette, Twinkleshine and lemon heart. But I will save them for later. Right now, it’s about time to go to Starlight Glimmer. Before I start, this will be brief because there is not a lot of episodes about her. There is also not a lot talked about her in the show. So let’s get going. Let’s start at season 5, episode 18, Crusaders of the Lost Mark. Yes I know this has nothing to do with Starlight Glimmer… or does it? In this episode, Pip Squeak decides to run for class president. The Cutie Mark Crusaders rally around their friend to help him. But they find themselves helping their long-time nemesis, Diamond Tiara. But they do it in an unexpected way. So you may be asking, why did they help Diamond Tiara after all the tribble she caused? And that’s a good question. It’s (to MY understanding) because they always knew that Diamond Tiara was not bad. The Cutie Mark Crusaders found the good in her. Even before Crusaders of the Lost Mark, they found the good in Diamond Tiara. Even though no-one else did other than Silver Spoon. The Cutie Mark Crusaders probably knew that someone who had a friend probably had some good in them. And yes you could say that season 3, episode 4, One Bad Apple, had Diamond Tiara pushing the Crusaders to their limit. But that’s not the case. It was Babs Seed the whole episode. It was her being the bully and pushing them to their limit. Diamond Tiara makes fun of them, but never pushes them to their limit. She knows when to stop. Babs Seed didn’t know when to stop. But the Crusaders tried to fix everything at the end cuz of what Applejack told them. “That’s just super sweet. Making Babs feel so special. You know after all the heartache over there in Manehattan. Well I didn’t say nothing cuz I didn’t want her to be singled out. There have been some bullies back in Manehattan just teasing her about her blank flank.” At that point, they tried to stop there prank so Babs didn’t get singled out. So over all when Diamond Tiara tried to trick or brake them up at any point during the show… without Diamond Tiara knowing, she was helping them be stronger friends. But overall, the Crusaders never gave up on the chants that she had some good in her. But why are you telling me this, you may be asking. It’s because this has something to do with Starlight Glimmer. No, not the episodes themselves. But the stuff in the episodes do represent Starlight Glimmer in a way. Like… in season 6, episode 6, when Starlight Glimmer starts becoming friends with (The Great and Powerful) Trixie, Twilight tries to stop Starlight Glimmer from becoming friends with her. But why? Trixie dose say that she is in ponyville to put on a stage show. It’s even called “The Humble and Penitent Trixie's Equestrian Apology Tour.” So why dose Twilight try to stop Starlight Glimmer from becoming friends with Trixie? It’s because Twilight dose not have the same forgiveness as the Crusaders. The Crusaders can tell when someone is not truly bad/evil. Like how I said they can in season 5, episode 18 and other episodes before season 5, episode 18. Yes Twilight dose learn at the end to trust Starlight Glimmer and let her make mistakes. But she shouldn’t have to learn any lessons on friendship. Only if she was not truly meant to be, Princess of Friendship. She shouldn’t even be allowed to teach Starlight Glimmer on friendship if she is still learning about it herself. But who knows, there’s still more to find out about Starlight Glimmer in later episodes.

You always have to give it a try! If you didn't try you would have regretted that! You're still alive, so it may have been a part of your destiny, guiding you to your unknown future. It'll never be the same, I know but if you really want to fly again, ask your friends they'll help you. Maybe one of them knows a magic spell or knows how to male mechanic wings?
