You posted it. Runner-up for me is - surprisingly - "I'll fly", even though I'm no Dashfag. I don't dislike her, but she's not my favorite. But that song is pretty good.

>>27019661
I think EQG including most songs are very bland.
But there are two songs I quite like. "Under our spell" is catchy and the director's cut version of that Twilight-Sunset duet. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x38c5ng_equestria-girls-friendship-game-deleted-scene_tv
>>
>>27019661
I'll second this, but I'd also say Smile is a close contender.

Having a hard time actually picking a song because a lot of the season 1 songs are just that good, with a few of the later seasons having a standout song here and there as well.

I can't choose just one. My favorites so far:

The one sin of RR is nearly muting Sonata and Aria in the movie version of the songs.
Some guy added them back in and it works so much better.

Pinkie is okay, not my favorite.

But darn it if she isn't one of the biggest source of feels for me from the show. Musical or otherwise.
>>
>>27020395
I think it's just easier for Ingram to make songs for her. she is just so damn happy all the time. it's more fun to write happy songs than sad songs.
even one of the saddest songs in the show is still crazy upbeat for the subject matter.
Even with pinkie at her lowest the song is still kinda happy. shit, it even ends strong.
https://youtu.be/wdi7WXkd5Qg

where as twilight in contrast. Her songs feel heavy and sad. Twilight in her lowest moment is a lot sadder and downtrodden.
https://youtu.be/kpCBxmIId6I

I feel pinkie is just more fun to write for song wise. if you have fun while doing something it'll always turn out fine.

According to the video description and the breakdown video the guy has, that's probably the most official you could do, as the "hidden" tracks with Aria and Sonata were in the Surround Sound tracks on the Blu Ray rip, but not the stereo track, which normal speakers and youtube only play.

They were already synced, he just combined them together to the main stereo track.

The Magic Inside or the [Music in the Treetops / Find the Music in You] suite. Still, Winter Wrap Up and Art of the Dress are both hard to beat, even after all these years.

>The Magic Inside's lyrics are bad!
No, they're not, especially compared to some of the one-off clunker lines in otherwise good songs that Daniel Ingram has made.

>I'm not here for infamy or fame
Clunky.

The double-use of "voice" as "artistic voice" and literal voice I thought was clever.

>I hear my voice so clearly and I know that it is right

The way RaRA says
>I thought I was weak but I am strong
and emphasizes the "weak" and "strong" sounds so killer.

>It's just like Let It Go!
Let It Go is more about "I accidentally revealed my power level, but in retrospect that's not so bad."
The Magic Inside is "here's my power level. Deal with it." And I take Let It Go as a much more gender / sexual / personal identity song than The Magic Inside, which is a song about one's artistic and hobbyist identity.

The song really becomes marvelous with the line
>just like the magic inside of you
That's what tilted it from an also-ran against Let It Go, to something with its own spin that was worth listening to over and over. It emphasizes community ("and now I see those colors") compared to Let It Go's solitude.

I adore Equestria, The Land I Love, but it has very limited appeal. If you hadn't watched 5 seasons of the show you might not identify with it the way I do. I don't think Equestria is my literal home or anything like that, but I look back on all the joy MLP has brought me and think "Equestria, My Home" is a nice capstone to that.

>The double-use of "voice" as "artistic voice" and literal voice I thought was clever.
>what is metaphor
Seriously dude?
Everyone uses metaphor for their songs, just because The magic inside was not as explicit as other pony songs doesnt make it better

>and emphasizes the "weak" and "strong" sounds so killer.
Thats called pre-chorus
I bet that at the end of that paragraph there was a sudden silence
Why? Because this part is supposed to give emphasis to the chorus, in this case, the chorus was too heavy, my ears almost bleed from
>BUT IM JUST A PONY
It sounded forced

>"I accidentally revealed my power level, but in retrospect that's not so bad."
>but Im just a pony, I make mistakes from time to time, now I know the real me
This quote floods in retrospection
Also being a pony is less of a sin than being an ice witch

>gender / sexual / personal identity
Ughh, please dont hear Tumblr

>It emphasizes community ("and now I see those colors") compared to Let It Go's solitude.
Of course, because Countess was looking for empathy instead of Elsa who was just tying to feel good with herself (which makes me think that she was suffering much more than Countess when singing)

Btw, I have watched all the eps too

Never had much of a head for what makes music enjoyable to listen to, so I preferred to listen to music that works well in context rather then stuff that just sounds nice, although really bad music that's hard to listen to will always be crap.

For MLP songs in no particular order:

> Giggle at the Ghosties
Good introduction for Pinkie.

>Winter Wrap up
Before this song there were no musical segments. Pinkie sang but other characters actively noticed and commented on how strange and out of place it is, which isn't what you do in musicals. So I always saw this song as a big loud "we're going to have musical segments in this show!" For that it works beautifully.

>Super Cider Squeezy
Love nods to 50s/60s era music. Makes the episode worth watching

>Cheese Confesses.
I was worried for so long that Cheese Sandwich would just turn out to be an asshole, instead his character gets a surprising amount of depth with this song.

>Battle of the Bands
Love villain songs, nice introduction.

>Find the music in you
Especially like Big Mac's part in this. The lyrics are referring mostly the Fluttershy's arc in the episode, but I like to believe they're also referring to how Big Mac got into the music gig in the first place. Was always disappointed this episode wasn't about Big Mac as well as Fluttershy though.

>Art of the Dress
So much going on in this song. The song is about Rarity, but it's also about artists in general. The struggle artists have between consumer demand and their own vision is something that cannot be overstated, I was surprised to see it so well depicted in this show.

>Smile Song.
Pinkie, the song.

>The Magic Inside
Lyrics are REALLY hit and miss for me, but it's hard to argue with how character defining it is.

That's about all off the top of my head, though there are probably more.
>>
>>27037488
Music that's enjoyable to listen to is whatever you like to listen to. If that means having a backstory, so be it.

Good choices.
>>
>>27019635
Preferably the ones where they don't sing.

But if I have to choose one, Fluttershy's cover of Evil Enchantress. That shit had me dying laughing for days.

I'm pretty sure it's the Smile song. In EqG I love all the songs by the Dazzlings, especially Under Your Spell and Welcome to the Show. My Past Is Not Today was great. Acadeca is also really catchy.

Shit, man. I love almost all the songs, which makes it insanely hard for me to choose. It is most certainly The Smile Song if I had to choose exactly one song, though. I remember that it leaked several months before A Friend In Deed actually aired and I already liked it back then. I remember completely losing my shit when I finally got to hear it in the episode itself. It's a pity that the rest of the episode wasn't able to match the awesomeness of that song, though.
