Freewave + Dreamsong - Young Folks

from Under the Covers of the Night / The Librarian by Freewave

about

This is an electropop cover of Peter, Bjorn & John's "Young Folks". I thought this would be a great track for Big Mac and Cheerilee post Hearts & Hooves Day ep. Now that the CMC (err the "Young Folks") are outta the picture the two can take it a bit slower and get to know if it is a match. This works as a duet between the 2 characters and is really about unfolding a relationship. Fluttermac fans this may be post-breakup, who knows, it's just fannon. I also really wanted to do this song as Dreamsong (aka Amadhia) and I are both older then most in the community (the other young folks), have been doing our own thing as well, and are spending lots of time not worrying about pony politics and just having fun making music. Thanks to her for the amazing vocals and for being such a wonderful friend. She did an amazing job on this.

lyrics

If I told you things I did before,
told you how I used to be
Would you go along with someone like me?
If you knew my story word for word,
had all of my history
Would you go along with someone like me?

I did before and had my share,
it didn't lead nowhere
I would go along with someone like you
It doesn't matter what you do,
who you were hanging to
We could stick around and see this night through

And we don't care about the young folks
Talking 'bout the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talking 'bout the old style too
And we don't care about our own faults
Talking 'bout our own style
All we care 'bout is talking
Talking only me and you

Usually when things has gone this far
people tend to disappear
No one will surprise me unless you do
I can tell there's something goin' on,
hours seems to disappear
Everyone is leaving, I'm still with you

It doesn't matter what we do,
where we are going to
We can stick around and see this night through

And we don't care about the young folks
Talking 'bout the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talking 'bout the old style too
And we don't care about our own faults
Talking 'bout our own style
All we care 'bout is talking
Talking only me and you

And we don't care about the young folks
Talking 'bout the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talking 'bout the old style too

And we don't care about our own faults
Talking 'bout our own style
All we care 'bout is talking
Talking only me and you Talking only me and you
Talking only me and you Talking only me and you

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
