about

So this first and foremost is a ponified cover of R.E.M.'s - Man on the Moon, which is a classic song on its own. While having a year w/o ponies was rough there have been amazing developments in the comics but not a whole lot of fan music to reflect those adventures. So this song loosely chronicles the plotlines of #5-8 but also examines skepticism in the fandom. If we examine MLP too closely under the microscope or presume that it's drying out we'll end up damaging the very thing we hopefully still love.

lyrics

Princess Luna and the Nightmare Forces yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Bad dreams, mane six, and scary voices yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Rarity trying hard to impress yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Jealous of others makes a terrible mess yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
See Mabel Pines made into a pony yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Tightrope to the moon just feels very phony yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now tell me have you read about this one?
Tell me, are you stuck on the ground?
Comics are you goofing on cannon? Hey, brony
Are you losing touch?

Do you believe they put a mare on the moon
mare on the moon
or do you believe there’s nothing left to see
and nothing is cool

Spike goes to save her he’s truly smitten yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Nightmare Moon’s origin being rewritten yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The evil has found a brand new queen yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Captured in jail in yet another scene yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now tell me have you read about this one?
Tell me, are you stuck on the ground?
Comics are you goofing on cannon? Hey, brony
Are you losing touch?

Do you believe they put a mare on the moon
mare on the moon
or do you believe there’s nothing left to see
and nothing is cool

Luna finally has to face her fears yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
See of all Ponyville come volunteer yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Here’s an appearance by a noble Trixie yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
In a giant battle with Nightmare Rarity yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now tell me have you read about this one?
Tell me, are you stuck on the ground?
Comics are you goofing on cannon? Hey, brony
Are you losing touch?

Do you believe they put a mare on the moon
mare on the moon
or do you believe there’s nothing left to see
and nothing is cool

Do you believe they put a mare on the moon
mare on the moon
or do you believe there’s nothing left to see
and nothing is cool

I'm an older brony musician who started making music in 2011. I have made a large collection of varied MLP music from many different genres and influences. I keep my prices cheap so that you may enjoy the music. ;)

I've add my pre-pony music of thescientist to bandcamp now. A bit more amateur, experimental, and concept based. It's here warts and all. ... more
