    I'm glad Eurobeat Brony is still able to find content now that season one is over.  I can't for season two though! 

    Have some vocal Eurobeat for once!  After the break as always!

      Like most, I found the ending very shocking, but I find that it makes the song more powerful because of the sudden contrast.

      In general, I'll probably listen to the Dream Mode version, but the Nightmare Moon is no worse because of its ending.

      On a personal note, however, I always had trouble with the style the ending is in because I can't hear the lyrics at all and in turn, for me, that takes away from the power of the passage.

      The colour swap in the video was particularly effective though.

      tl,dr: I loved it, even with its ending.

      This is amazing, and I can't stress that enough. May be my favourite Ponybeat, which is strange considering (as far as I know) it's not even from the show.

      I don't quite understand the context of the lyrics, though. Is this song supposed to be being sung by a particular character? I keep shifting between thinking Luna's singing it, Nightmare Moon, Celestia, and the moon itself. Who's supposed to be singing this? The lyrics make reference in first, second, and third-person.

      I like to take it from the perspective of pretty much anyone(pony) who's ever felt lonely and remorseful. It's sort of a prayer to Luna, asking for understanding and sympathy from the one that they know has felt the same.

      Actually, I could see that. Alright, unless there's a canon explanation of the lyrics, my theory is that there's some pony who loved and respected Luna when she was in charge of the moon, then when she was banished this pony waited for her return and eventually this pony's patience fades and it goes on a rampage of sorts.

      I'm pretty sure the lyrics are sung from Nightmare Moon's perspective (or, if you prefer, the "bitterness in her heart"). In the "dream mode" part she sympathizes with Luna and fills her with ideas of vengeance. It's more obvious in the "nightmare" part, which is after she transforms into NMM; there's no change in speaker between the two parts.

      Oh wow wow wow. LOTS of discussion!

      To keep a long story short, I originally wrote Luna in the same vein as Display Name mentioned, but it's interesting to see these other approaches. Even I may not know fully-well what I meant, with these approaches~!

      As for the Metal... it was an experiment I've always wanted to try. I made two versions in the event that metal didn't work out so well, but I felt it reflected the power of what was going on inside Nightmare Moon's heart during the millenia on the Moon. It clearly worked well for some, and not well for others. Not sure how often I'll do it from now on, but the results were fascinating!

      Confessedly, I did use a bit of pitch correction. While I contemplated going 'raw' as I often like to, I was a bit of a perfectionist about this song... it HAD to sound accurate, and I didn't want my voice (in the bad shape it's currently in) to damage it. I'm not entirely proud of using it, but I'd rather have a finished product that's enjoyable for everyone than let myself get in the way of a good song.

      I'm contemplating releasing a non-corrected version for those interested in flogging thems-- er, hearing myself un-corrected.

      Sweet Celestia, I love this. I love it so much. The lyrics are so beautiful, and the whole thing just gives me chills. I especially agree with BronyMike up there about the "Days turned into years and into centuries" line. Admittedly, I prefer DREAM Mode, as I strongly dislike death metal, but I can see why you did it, and applaud you for taking the shot.

      Also, Euro, odd question I know, but what's the visual effect you used on the album cover at the end? I'd like to set that as the cover for just this song, but I can't figure out what you did. I know it's not a simple color inversion, I tried that, but I can't think what else it might be. Anyway, if you could let me know that'd be awesome.

      Oh, and @Spazturtle,

      Check out the other stuff on his website; anything by "Odyssey" is him, and almost all of it has vocals. Given his earlier comments, I'd assume those are raw.

      @Shellsh0cker: The visual effect is just inverting the colors. It seriously actually is just that (as conducted by Final Cut Pro).

      @"Raw Vocals": I'll release it as an alternate take, then. :)

      It's settled then— Non-Pitch-corrected Luna varieties will be released with the Altnerate Versions collection. :)

      As for Bandcamp asking for 50 cents or more, that's because I've run out of the amount of free downloads I can give away. Instead of Bandcamp (for free music, anyway), please refer to my DeviantArt Blog entry: http://eurobeatbrony.deviantart.com/journal/40763747

      This will update from time to time, but it currently has the following versions of Luna (NIGHTMARE MODE):

      • Un-Autotuned
      • Instrumental

      As well as a couple other alternative versions. Keep your eyes peeled as I upload more in the near future! :D

      Huh. The GIMP's color inversion gives me something completely different. What the hell.

      @Shellsh0cker

      It looks to me like it just needs some color correction. I played around with the Curves and Levels (gamma). Gamma alone doesn't work because the outlines don't match. I was getting closer with Curves.

      This song is not awesome.
      It's 20% cooler than just awesome.

      NIGHTMARE MOON BOSS-FIGHT THEME!!!
      But, some parts confuse me. "forced back into the star"- Luna was trapped in the moon, right? Is this referring to Celestia, because it looked like Celestia came out of the sun after Nightmare Moon was defeated.
      Anyway, I love this song, and the evil singing at the end is a nice touch. I can also totally see Luna singing a slower, softer version of this. A female voclaist sHould try this. BaldDumboRat has already started. She has a GREAT Luna voice.

      Okay. I LOVE THIS SONG! I have made a nightmare moon tribute (so she won't eat me) and I used Nightmare Night by Wooden Toaster, but this would have worked better.
