Let's have a little fun now, shall we?
Amy Keating Rogers pulled out her ukulele at Everfree Northwest this past weekend and serenaded her fans with a reworked version of the MLP intro. Now y'all have the chance to repay the favor! We've obtained a copy of Amy's lyrics beneath the break, so if you wanna pull some of your musically-inclined friends together (or go solo, either way), record a version of yourselves and send it in! Heck, make it into a PMV if you want! Doesn't matter if you sing it like Jimmy Buffett, Owl City, Florence + the Machine, or Slayer -- let's show her our creativity and how much we look forward to her return to Season 4!
We'll go ahead and set the submission deadline to July 31. Try and include "AKR Music Event" or something of that sort in the subject line so we don't skip over it by accident. Other than that, get cracking, everypony, and show us your stuff!
MY LITTLE PONY: FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC
(MARGARITAVILLE UKE VERSION)
Lyrics by Amy Keating Rogers
VERSE
My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
Come on let's meet our Pony friends
There's Twilight Sparkle, an Alicorn pony
To books and to lessons, this pony tends.
CHORUS
Friendship is Magic in the town of Ponyville
Helping, learning, and getting along
For the Mane Six, this magic isn't just tricks
Hearts and Hooves. These ponies are strong.
VERSE
Fluttershy takes care of all the sweet creatures
That pony's timid, yet she is brave.
Rainbow Dash races with Pegasus passion
Too bad that pony just won't behave.
CHORUS
Friendship is Magic in the town of Ponyville
Helping, learning, and getting along
For the Mane Six, this magic isn't just tricks
Hearts and Hooves. These ponies are strong.
VERSE
Applejack works hard, just like all Earth ponies,
Putting the pony before the cart.
And Rarity's beauty finds all the great treasures
Making them sparkle and shine like her heart.
CHORUS
Friendship is Magic in the town of Ponyville
Helping, learning, and getting along
For the Mane Six, this magic isn't just tricks
Hearts and Hooves. These ponies are strong.
VERSE
Pinkie Pie's laughter is what makes her special
Her smile shines bright, just like the sun.
Together these six friends are so elemental
For harmony binds them and can't be undone.
CHORUS
Friendship is Magic in the town of Ponyville
Helping, learning, and getting along
For the Mane Six, this magic isn't just tricks
Hearts and Hooves. These ponies are strong.
For the Mane Six, this magic isn't just tricks
Hearts and Hooves. These ponies are strong.
