Can we stop arguing about the episode itself for a second and agree on the fact that this is probably the best song since The Magic Inside? It doesn't have the broadway tier singing but in terms of intensity and message i think it wins by a mile.
And yes, the perfect pear song was great too, but it didn't hit as hard as this one at least for me.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JB1rFbLOhwE

Season 7 is doing great, these new writers really know what they're doing. And not, M.A. Larson didn't write the episode, stop sucking his dick, he's credited for literally no reason.
>>
Yea i really enjoyed it although not as much as a perfect pear.
It does remind me of the songs from eqg though.
>>
>>30717862
Yes, the song is great. Probably is the only good thing from the episode, a waste.
>>
>>30717862
>generic be yourself song
It was one of ingrams worst but I don't blame him. He had nothing to work with.
>>
>>30717862
Not one of the best but I really enjoyed the performance of the voices and the visual elements. 7/10
>>30717927
>there's something wrong with a generic message
I guess you don't like the "I don't know where I fit in" song, aka Winter Wrap Up, or the "Happiness is good for you" song, also known as Smile.
>>
>>30717862
To be honest, I didn't like the song that much. Too autotune-popish tier.

The ep was great, tho, don't get me wrong.

I personally don't like the out pouring of pop in this season as it isn't to my tastes but I'm not going to say it is objectively bad...except maybe that duet between Big Mac and Beiberpony, that was just bad, but they can't all be hits.
>>
>>30717940

The battle for sugar belle was meant to be bad.
The start of macs part was genuinly romantic and a few of feather bangs lines were fun though.

Most mlp songs are shit, including this one. The pear song was worse though, this one is at least somewhat catchy.

Meh, the chorus is catchy, but the rest of the song is a mess.

I really like the song even though the chorus sounds extremely similar to Welcome to the Show.
Pretty much confirms that EqG is not canon and they'll use part of it like they never happened.
>>
>>30717862
the song was god awful and its sad to see the show continuing the trend of recycling animation segments for the choruses

it sounded like it was supposed to be in EQG but got cut so ingram just dumped it into the already god awful episode because why bother putting something decent in

the entire song is aiming to tell the fandom to like characters for their flaws, almost as if the writers are so far removed that they are unaware that is literally why the characters are loved in the first place

what a heaping pile of utter excrement
>>
>>30718172
>I really like the song even though the chorus sounds extremely similar to Welcome to the Show
I noticed it as well. Good stuff.
EqG has the best songs, I'm almost okay with Daniel reusing them.
>>
The song would've been better had the episode been written to fit it. Hell the episode itself would've been better. Come to think of it, the episode didn't even fit the fucking synopsis. No one was arguing over who had the best lessons because no one gave a shit about the lessons.

No one wants to take credit for this shit, but it has executive meddling written all over it.
>>
>>30717862
I don't like meta humor, and I'm not much of a fan of the episode, but I fucking love the song. I think it's really nice that we got two mane 6 songs this season, and both were amazing.
>>
>>30717862
I preferred Best Friends Until the End of Time more.

Remember when songs actually progressed the plot rather than being things that happened while they all stand still? They did the same thing in the escape room earlier this season, that song even sounded similar. Did ingram phone these songs in while he put all his effort into the movie?

Twilights solo at the start seems odd to me, feels clunky?
So does the chorus.
The other bits are good though, remixes should be interesting.

>the "Happiness is good for you" song, also known as Smile.
Fucking What.
That is such a gross misunderstanding of the song.
It's not just about happiness being good, it's the fact that sharing happiness is literally pinkie's purpose in life.

>Can we stop criticizing the episode and go back to sucking its dick for being horribly flawed and parodied by a sociopathic executive?

The songs since season 2 have been utter trash. Remember Sweetie Belle? She used to sing good before season 3 when she started acting retarded again.

Remember that first comic book with Friends Forever starring Applejack, Pinkie Pie and some OC Donutsteel recolor of Fluttershy? The team behind said they were excited too for it and so happy to make it. It ended up showing Pinkie and Applejack as inept and idiotic faggots who cannot cook worth a shit. Apparently failure is funny. For a bunch of idiots and failures like you, you congratulate yourself because you enjoy self-inserting yourself as a loser and a failure.

>Did ingram phone these songs in while he put all his effort into the movie
Yes actually (well, phone it in is probably a bit exaggerated), but he said at BronyCon that most of his work this year was for the movie. However he also said that S8 is already written and will have a more usual amount of songs, as well as him having access to the movie production values for some of the S8 songs.
>>

My opinion is objective. You would know if you had an access to data about overall song ratings.

>>30717862
I like it better now than when I first heard it, but still the intro and the chorus are a bit clunky.

Honestly pretty much what is to be expected from lyrics co-written by Larson :^) (Seriously though, he's always said he's not good at it so it wouldn't be surprising if that credit were actually correct)

It was an incredibly average song, it's not even the best song in the season, not to mention the whole fucking show. And the song is incredibly disjointed from the episode, ponies didn't care about their flaws of even about the real ponies.
>>
>>30717862
I mean, if Larson did pen up the premise he deserves credit for the premise of the episode even if there were many hands on the project afterwards.

The song was strangely sudden but the fact it resolved nothing made it work for me.
>>
>>30719318
Funny how it's a second sudden and half-assed pop song that doesn't resolve anything.
>>
>>30717869
I think it's just because it has the whole mane6 singing together in harmony. They never really did that before EqG, but do it in almost every EgG song. In the main show, they would usually have a separate chorus layered over them.

Holy shit thank you anon, it sounds so much more natural.
Do you think they actually slowed it down for the episode?
>>
Also, they keep hammering that Pinkie Pie is not just a joke pony but then they make episodes like Green Isn't Your Color and Rock Solid Friendship (per example) when Pinkie Pie is flandrezied to a over the top extreme.
>>
Perhaps it would have been better in another episode, or even if this episode followed its synopsis and actually had ponies arguing over lessons instead of spewing direct fandom opinions from three years ago.

Also, I fucking hate how in S6 on the animation during songs is so cheap. Ingram swore things would pick up again in S8 with more songs and an orchestra but man. They need better animation.
>>
I love this song to pieces. I can't help it. Some folks say it's actually utter shit, but I just don't see it. I don't claim to be /mu/ and have good taste. Judging that musical number on its own, it's really sweet. The song, the choreography, and the vocal performance, all taken together, are top notch in my book. It single-handedly saved the episode for me, despite not really fitting into it.

It's not the first time, but the music and the lyrics are both great.

I know about music too, and the chord progression at the start of the chorus is very similar. The vocal performance is similar, too. It also both starts with similar lyrics and follows the same pattern.
>We will be adored

that's what i was saying. A little part of the chorus is kinda similar, but in no way is this song "the same" as welcome to the show

>>30717862
To me this song was on same tier as Best Friends Until the End of Time; terrible and off-putting within context of the show

But then again when I listened to BFUtEoT again without context, it was actually catchy, so I might have to re-listen to this song as well

I love how completely and utterly pointless these songs were. "Flawless" had no effect on their fans and "Best Friends Until the End of Time," a song about how great friendship can be when you work together, resulted in them actually failing their goal. I haven't laughed this hard at MLP songs since the mane 6 kept complaining about Pinkie Pie's songs in season 1.
>>

Holy fug. I didn't think there was anything wrong with the song, but it actually is a lot better when played slightly faster. I feel like this is a brainwashing technique or something that will keep me from reproducing and creating white children.

Maybe some of us don't care for the self-referential style of humor. Kind of like when the Simpsons went to shit ignoring their character based humor and self contained jokes in exchange for becoming its own parody.

I miss the old feel of the episodes, even if I have to put a disclaimer that I'm not one to put >muh faust on a pedistal just to placate the false flagging pretend retards.

How haven't you watched every single EqG movie and short? You know all the REEEEing /mlp/ does over it is just a meme, right? There was legitimate concern back when it was first discovered before Hasbro even announced it, but that faded quickly after the first movie came out. It's definitely not as good as the show, but it's still worth a watch, especially for the songs.

This Day Aria is definitely one of his best, I think the entirety of A Hearth's Warming Tail is some of his overall best work to date. I don't think I'd talk of peak just yet, I'd need a few years of lesser work for that.

>>30724657
I'd be inclined to agree with you if this wasn't just one episode. Every other episode this season was "normal" without self-referential humour.
>>
Only part of this song that stuck out to me as good was Rainbow's verse.
What stuck out to me as bad was when Rebecca Shoichet was voicing Twilight for the song, you could tell she was really slipping out of it. It didn't sound nearly anything like Twilight. Kazumi Evans was also slipping in to overly low tones for Rarity. There were also some audio hiccups you could notice at the end of the chorus loops.
