So I was in the car with a friend who is not a brony, but who I am trying to convert. The chorus of this song came on, "Don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful", and my friend says, "It's Celestia's song!"

I was like "wah? Ahahaha yes!"

Story behind THAT is that we were in Wal-Mart the other day, and she was showing me the lack of Rainbow Dash pony toys, because she was looking for one for me for my recent birthday.

There was the big Celestia there, that, when you press the center of her Cutie Mark, she says a ton of different phrases. (I expected like 5, but I kept pushing the button and she kept saying different things!)

Such as:

"My wings are so pretty!"

"I will light the way!"

"My barrettes are so pretty!"

"I love it when you brush my hair!"

And, as my friend added, "I'm so full of myself!"

I thought of something that would be great for the Cutie Mark Crusaders!

Delerium - Aria (as performed by the Mediaeval Baebes)

d2i1mQahs2c

Middle English Lyrics

E have a wist, sin e couthe I meen

The children hath by candle leet

E have a wist, sin e couthe I meen

The children hath by candle leet

Her shadewe on the wal iseen

And ronne thereafter all they neet

Bisy abouta, they han, they han ben

And whom they catchen it best wolde wen

E have a wist, sin e couthe I meen

The children hath by candle leet

For no lines that, that they couthe lay

To this world and yesterday

Bisy abouta, they han, they han ben

And whom they catchen it best wolde wen

E have a wist, sin e couthe I meen

The children hath by candle leet

Her shadewe on the wal iseen

And ronne thereafter all they neet

Bisy abouta, they han, they han ben

And whom they catchen it best wolde wen

Bisy abouta, they han, they han ben

And whom they catchen it best wolde wen

Modern English Translation

Ever since I could remember, I have known

That children by candle light

Ever since I could remember, I have known

That children by candle light

Have seen a shadow on the wall

And have chased it all night through.

Busily they have tried

With all their might to catch it.

And when they most expect to catch it

It shoots most quickly out of sight,

This shadow never shall be caught

In any trap they lay.

This shadow in the likeness

Of this world and yesterday.

Busily they have tried

With all their might to catch it.

Ever since I could remember, I have known

That children by candle light

Have seen a shadow on the wall

And have chased it all night through.

Busily they have tried

With all their might to catch it.

Busily they have tried

With all their might to catch it.

I thought really hard about these, and they seem to fit very well...

Celestia @ Luna (This is about the reluctant attitude Celestia had about defeating her sister, and the things she may have said to her sister afterwords. Also, it's based on the Celestia-Midnight Moon feud being that of more of a balance of powers rather than the simple "good vs. evil." This setting would have created a very interesting emotion from Celestia.)

Gilda

(This one was a bit of a stretch. Rarity is kind of hard to find a song for...)

Fluttershy (Fluttershy is even harder than Rarity, because few pop-culture songs can explain or illustrate the personality that is the Fluttershy complex. But, the Beatles have never failed me--this song is perfect for Fluttershy!)

hi hi

These are just a few that I pulled together from music that I like, for the mane six I tried to find pieces that were instrumental. Some are kind of off the beaten path, others I think are right on the nose. (I am often told that I have odd taste in music, so I can't really guess if anyone will like these.)

• Twilight Sparkle:

- Dave Brubeck

• Fluttershy:

- Christophe Héral

• Rarity:

- Carlos Gardel

• Rainbow Dash:

- Naoki Sato

• Applejack:

- Moby

• Pinkie Pie:

- Aram Khachaturian

-----

Heres some other ones that I thought of.

• Luna: Who You Were - Jamin Winans

• Vinyl Scratch:

- Cynic Project

• Grannie Pie:

- Vienna Teng

• Derpy:

- Cartoon Planet Band

• Spike and Twilight:

(poor spike)

Woo! Thread necromancy! :twisted:

Bringing this back up because I realised how perfect this is for Nightmare Moon. Imagine it playing just before she breaks free from her moon prison. The "otherworld" is of course Equestria:

The lyrics are pretty hard to understand due to growly voice syndrome so here they are, slightly edited for fun:

Go now, if you want it

An otherworld awaits you

Don't you give up on it

You bite the hand hoof that feeds you

All alone, cold fields you wander

Memories of it, cloud your sight

Fills your dreams, disturbs your slumber

Lost your way, a fallen knight.

Hold now, aim is steady

An otherworld awaits you

One thousand years, you ready?

The otherworld, it takes you

Go into the sand, and the dust in the sky

Go now, there's no better plan than to do or to die

Free me; pray to the fayth in the face of the light

Feed me; fill me with sin, and get ready to fight

You know you will

You know you will

You know it, you know it, you know it, you know that you will

You know it, you know it, you know it, you know that you will

You know you will...

Fight, fight, fight!

Fight, fight, fight!

Fight, fight, fight!

Fight, fight, fight!

Hope dies, and you wander

The otherworld, it makes you

Dreams, they rip asunder

The otherworld, it hates you

Free now, ride up on it

Up to the heights, it takes you

Go now, if you want it

An otherworld awaits you

The Mane 6 (In Alphabetical Order)

Applejack: Thank God I'm A Country Boy (Well she'd have to have some sort of country song and that's the best I could find, I don't really know very much country music, I actually heard this song in a musical)

Fluttershy: Egao Happy Peace (Take a good look at the lyrics, it matches everything)

Pinkie Pie: I Love To Laugh (from Mary Poppins)/Let Me Entertain You (from Gypsy, really both are perfect)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1dkTrNH92Y (There needs to be a video of this, there needs to be, with Rainbowdash as Bert and maybe Rarity as Mary Poppins (at least for the humour of her singing that part when we all know hat her laugh sounds like) and the Cutie Mark Crusaders as Jane & Michael)

Rainbowdash: Buttercup/Supergirl by Shonen Knife (I've seen a video of her with the song, though I'd love to see a proper AMV of the idea since that video was more of a slideshow)

Rarity: I Enjoy Being A Girl (It was a bit hard to find a song for her, but I could imagine them giving her a song that's a nod to this one the way "Art Of The Dress" is a nod to "Puting It Together")

Twlight Sparkle: Tensai Let's Go Ayayamu from Hamtaro the movie 4 (It's especially fitting if you know the story of the film, Ayayamu is an Author who has an aversion to making friends with anyone besides her two asistants after a bad experience and by the end of the movie has discovered the joys of true friendship)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7MTUvV4UEo (Why are there no videos that have the actaul Hamtaro characters? either way this has the lyrics)

Bonus:

Twilight Sparkle (Episode 1 and the time prior): I Am A Rock by Simon & Garfunkel (It's perfect for her)

Rarity & Applejack (Episode 8): What Is This Feeling/Loathing from Wicked (Not a perfect analogy for the entire show, not even close, but it does fit amazingly well for this song and this episode)

Pinkie Pie (Episode 25): They're Coming To Take Me Away by Napoleon XIV (Oh Dear....)

"I'm reaching out to find a reason

To find an answer and relief

I see a world so strange and cold

I see a world of rules and thieves"

"All I ever wanted was a little piece of life

In a world where I decide things on my own

All I ever needed was a little piece of hope

And then things are gonna turn the other way"

"I'm living in a world of fantasy

Reality ain't meant or made for me

All that I see is so unreal"

so yeah... Pinkie Pie all the way
