I'll just leave this here.

That..was..amazing. Just...amazing. Mostly cause I'm a huge TF2 fan, and damn that animation.

Seen that months ago and it still remains my favorite TF2 video ever.

I remember first seeing that. Me and my friend nearly died of laughter.

Super Ponybeat — This Day Aria (Hyper Techno Mix ft. Jessa)

[JAGzilla]

^ Is that the one with the vocals? If so, I tried it the other day. Meh. Super Ponybeats work best as instrumentals. Singing doesn't fit.

Yes it is and I really gotta agree.

While we're on the subject of music, the show's songs are something we haven't discussed here in a while. So what are your favorites? Some of mine, in no real order:

Season One:

- The Art of The Dress: Still the Rarity song. Does a really good job of showing us Rarity's dressmaking process in an entertaining way, as well explaining some of how she views her job and friends. The music is very catchy and memorable, too.

- Winter Wrap-Up: One of the few songs that all of the Mane Six get in on, but sort of incorporates Ponyville as a whole rather than focusing on specific characters, Twilight's parts excluded. It has a nice 'teamwork' and 'helping others' vibe to it, rather than being more inwardly-focused like some of the other songs. It's also sort of a uniquely pony holiday song; instead of being about decorating or something like that, it's about how they change the seasons. Cool stuff.

- Giggle At The Ghostie: The first, and absolutely one of the best. I like how the characters' reactions sort of mirror the likely initial reaction of the audience; annoyed disbelief at a musical number popping up out of nowhere, then happy acceptance as Pinkie's infectious positivity destroys all ability to disagree with her.

- At The Gala: Another song that includes all of the Mane Six. Does a solid job of capturing their excitement and enthusiasm, and selling the Gala as a huge, life-changing event for them. Dash's segment is particularly straight-up awesome, with the trumpet fanfare and Wonderbolts flyover. Poor Applejack, though. Even here, she's overshadowed and downplayed by her friends. They mostly have these big, epic dreams, and she's just there to get rich quick. Which is understandable and noble in its own right, the money being for her family and all, but it just looks kind of pathetic in the song.

Season Two:

- Find A Pet: A Fluttershy and Dash duet. Come on, how awesome is that? It really solidly captures Fluttershy's enthusiasm for animals, and was a great chance for her to be outspoken and assertive: eagerly showing off her menagerie to Dash, making recommendations, etc. Dash and her shallow selection criteria were played well, too. She comes across as naive and making bad choices, but not in an over-the-top, selfish way like in Mare Do Well. She's still likeable, and retains that all-important Dash coolness.

- Smile Smile Smile: Pinkie's best of the season, no question. I didn't really care for it at first; being played seriously instead of comedically like the others felt kind of jarring for a Pinkie song. But I've come to appreciate it for that. It feels honest, if that makes sense. Like this is Pinkie at her core, all the jokes stripped away. Comedy is an integral part of her character, of course, but this shows the deeper motivations beneath that. She basically exists to make people happy, which in turn makes her happy. Perfect characterization for the living embodiment of Laughter.

- BBBFF: As good a way as any to establish Shining Armor as a critically-important-but-hitherto-unmentioned aspect of Twilight's life. It's catchy, it's cute, and the bouncy, upbeat pop style fits Twilight surprisingly well.

- This Day Aria: I don't really remember this one very well; I've only heard it twice, most recently two months ago. Good concept and everything, though. This show really needed a Disney-esque villain song.

I LOVE Smile, Smile, Smile and This Day Aria. I can, have, and will probably continue to listen to them over an over without getting bored. Tripple S is just beautiful, and powerful in a strange, lifting way. It honestly makes me smile. "I give a smile, I get a smile"- that's pure Pinkie right there. As for Aria, villain songs in general tend to get me.

Pinkie's little pig song in Baby Cakes is surprising catchy as well. First you wiggle your tail, oink, oink, oink! Then your wriggle your snout, oink, oink, oink!

[UltramanGoji]

I find the lack of The Cupcakes Song disturbing.

[Dust_pan]

- Winter Wrap Up: One of those types of songs that make working a lot more pleasant.

- Smile, Smile, Smile: Just makes me feel damn happy.

- BBBFF: As sappy as it is, I find it cute and heart warming.

- This Day Aria: Finally! A villain song! A dramatic one, too!

- The "Failure Song": Twilight's my most favorite character. Spike is my second most favorite character. It's also pretty cool seeing Twilight being such an ace at nearly every magical/academic skill, like she's definitely developed since the first episode.

[Kiryu2012]

Smile, smile, smile: Need I even explain?

Twilight's failure song: It's about time Spike got to sing, though I would prefer him singing alone, but this is easily good enough for me.

Winter Wrap-Up: This never gets old.

This Day Aria: Badass. That's all I can say about it.

Find A Pet: Just pretty damn awesome and fun to listen to.

Also, found a pretty shocking fact about Sweetie Belle's voice actor:

That's right. Sweetie Belle essentially voices Tiny from Dinosaur Train.

Well, 'shocking' is a little strong; most of MLP's VAs are in plenty of other shows. Have you seen Tara Strong's voice resume? She's in everything.

Still, that's surprising. My little brother and sister watch Dinosaur Train a lot, and Tiny's voice is very close to Sweetie's now that I think about it. I'm kind of annoyed that I never noticed that.

That she is. I was watching gameplay for Lollipop Chainsaw, and it's obvious the main character is voiced by Tara Strong; it sounds EXACTLY like Twilight... The worst part was when she started talking all innuendo-like. I'm all "Oh God, why Twilight..."

Switching topics, does anyone know when season 3 starts? I've heard next month and September 27th.

[JAGzilla]

^ EqD says Hasbro just confirmed that S3 won't be released in August. The first DVD comes out in December, though, so it's somewhere in between. S2 started in mid-September, so hopefully S3 will do the same.

Makes me want to see how Spike would work in Skyrim.

Also, Fluttershy for dragons:

I'd get rid of the duck face, but it's awesome.
