Favorite song?

And agreeing with everyone saying they love the songs from the "Seven Songs and a Story" album. They're such huge earworms, and as soon as I read the names of Applejack, Lickety Split, Bowtie, or Cherries Jubilee, their songs will immediately come to mind and get stuck in my head for eternity.

I had the cassette when I was four, and I played it so much that the tape wobbled and got a bit mangled on Posey's song (the versions you hear online mostly came from my cassette, you can still hear the Posey wobble, LOL). I actually knew the whole cassette by heart at one point in my childhood.

"My little pony live at the edge of the rainbow forest. Theirs is a magical world, where every day brings a new adventure..."

xD

It was such a big part of my childhood that I love that other people now get to appreciate it.

I just wish I could find the Picnic at PE song to post a link to, since that for me is the US's equivalent and it's so cute. I *may* have played it too much when I first heard it (around age 16), but it's also an earworm that gets a lot less attention than it should. I think it's the only US story cassette that has a song??

Going back to songs from the animation, I had only 4 eps of MLP G1 when I was a kid on vhs, but the ones I remember most songwise come from the vhs I had first. So Ice Cream Wars ("Babysitting!") and Revolt of PE

I still have no idea what the lamp sings at the start, even now. Anyone got any idea? Never could make it out.

It's also a bit of a poignant song now since G1 is so long past. Watching it always takes me back to being a kid though

I think the lamp sings “They lit up the world”


I have the Picnic at Paradise Estate book but not the cassette.

No, it's the line after that I can't get

No, it's the line after that I can't get

I think it’s “Well, pretty darn near”

Ooh. That seems possible. As a kid I always heard it as something to do with frayed ears, which made no sense to me xD. I also only heard "why stir up those memories" from the bowls and spoon for the first time today. As a kid I always heard it as "The master of those memories" O.o. .

MLP songs are a mixed bag. My top faves are:
Nothing Can Stop the Smooze
Dancing on Air
My Little Pony Tales
Call Upon the Sea Ponies
Oh For a Rainy Day
Sweet Music
Dressed Like a Dream
I'll Do the Dirty Work
Here's to Power

I like the smooze song the best. I thought it was hilarious as a kid, and I still can't listen to it without cracking up, even all these years later.
