@@hydrogenperoxide69 nice. Was it toasted?
I've been thinking of taking on a date....😉🤣 Maybe Taco Bell or Starbucks...🤣 but you'll be paying😁😍
All songs from rainbow rocks are absolute bangers. Especially the Dazzlings
The Rainbooms are RainBOOS
I really wish we had a full version of Welcome to the Show without the Rainbooms stuff
@@47ratsinahoodie been wanting this since the release
@@47ratsinahoodie I think someone made an extended version
Nah the only banger from Rainbow Rocks is the Snips and Snails rap song
My theory for why all the songs are different genres is broadening children's musical horizons because, remember, MLP is made for kids. If they add a wide variety of different songs with different genres, kids will be exposed to those genres much earlier then they likely otherwise would, giving them an idea of their tastes.
That would definitely make a lot of sense. It also just makes it more fun and draws in the kids and teens like me 😂
I know there was similar justification for Ferb and Phineas
No it's varied because that's how Lauren Faust wanted it. She wanted a show that could appeal to as many people of all ages as possible. That's why even at the start each pony was vastly different so more people could relate to at least one. Also why the show takes on more mature themes, such as dealing with adult day to day life, or the struggles of college life.
i wanna briefly mention that, while the show was *marketed* towards kids, its original audience was actually never just for kids, as stated by Lauren in an interview; it was meant to be enjoyed by everyone of all ages who may inevitably watch the show with the children or younger siblings who would come across the show themselves via Hasbro's marketing
The show also aged with its audience, with themes more relevant to kids in season 1, to a mix of junior high/high school struggles present in seasons 4-6, and from there some themes become clearly towards adults (as in things children would NEVER be able to relate to until they're practically past college, e.g. a guy is trying to settle in with a new life with another woman but struggles to get along with her child who does not want to move on from her dad)
@@6-dpegasus425 The children marketing is all Hasbro selling toys. DHX and Lauren made the show relatable to an older audience and one of the reasons Lauren Faust left is because Hasbro wanted to dumb down the show and make it more kiddy-like to which DHX eventually refused to do.
Adagio Dazzle and Rarity have the same singing voice: Kazumi Evans. She honestly has one of the most beautiful voices in the show.
i was waiting for someone to point that out in the comments lol ! :)
Rebecca has the best singing voice but Kazumi is amazing.
Facts.
@@bumblebeeyellowdragon Frrrr
She also is the same voice actress as iris from lolirock ❤
The Dazzlings are just absolutely gorgeous in every way! I wish they could come back so we could get more music from them!
They actually did come back in a web series on CZcams but they didn’t really sing in it :(
@@travisphelps3866 they sang “find the magic”, theres a full version on yt
@@travisphelps3866 yeah I saw it. The song didn’t feel right though. Didn’t feel like the sassy Dazzlings that we all know and love
@@fnafgurljj0743 well that's because they aren't the dazzlings,those were the sirens in their necklace's
From lore hints what I get is the actual three girls got possessed by them,and even though they miss the singing power they're trying to make their own music
@@LycanMOON oh I thought Adagio and them were the sirens in their human form lol cause both the sirens and the girls look the same.
Okay but trixie's song, "tricks up my sleeve" is criminally underrated and I'm still mad that they cut it short in the movie. Most people don't even know there's a full version! The movie cuts it off before it even gets to the best part! I'd love if you reacted to it so it would get some more attention.
I'm a sixcource meal and you're just burnt toast
I've listened to this song so many times after hearing it in the movie
LITERALLY, IT'S SO GOOD!!
Yess!
@@TheNilsbuss Think I'm gonna give up?
No never, ever, ever, everrrr!
twilights first two lines in friendship through the ages are actually so nice and the way its delivered by her VA is so gentle 😭
Rebecca is the one who sings for Twilight and also voices Sunset. So anything singing between the two of them is Rebecca singing with herself. Fun mindblow.
Super subtle bit: The one-piece thing the lead Dazzling wears is officially called....a siren suit.
Thanks to DWK for finding this out for all of us.
@@bumblebeeyellowdragon He is an absolute unit.
Don't remember if it happened then, but I do remember that they eventually fashion designers to give the characters proper dresses
The last Dazzling song in their arc is called "Find the Magic", it's part of the last plot driven special for equestria girls, Sunset Shimmer's Backstage Pass, released in 2019. The rest of the special is also really good, in terms of both the story and the songs. Another iconic jam from it is "True Original".
If you want another sad song, I'm not sure if you've seen "Let it Rain" which was a stand alone song for Sunset Shimmer.
If you want a song that shifts tones, the stand alone song, "So much more to me" for Fluttershy does that well and the unreleased demo is nothing I would have expected. It's SO different from the released version.
Let it Rain has to be my fave. I always think of it as a SciSet song...
Yess Let It Rain is one of my favorite songs, I've actually requested it multiple times it's so good.
Yes!! Then afterwards he could also react to the animatic version that has a demo version of the song that sounds less children's show vibes. Both are fantastic although I think watching the final version first is better to avoid spoilers😊
Yess
I was obsessed with Find the Magic
0:54
That's actually Sci-Twi, the Twilight of that current World, which means if the other Twilight crossed through the worlds, there would be a lot of confusion (although that is what happened at the end of one of the movies if I recall correctly)
I believe it was at the end of the Friendship Games
@@langdonledwig3734 yup ended with them staring at each other
On the flip side, Sci-Twi visited Equestria with Sunset and Human Rainbow in "Spring Breakdown."
@@geogamr2493 "Visited" they were forced into Equestria but yeah.
@@langdonledwig3734oh yessss it was
0:35 Rise up
5:10 The other side
8:25 Battle of the bands
12:00 Shake your tail
14:00 Friendship through the ages
Dang they really need to check out Everfree songs
These ones are good to but I was looking forward to ever free
@@luckybug479 everfree has always been my favourite of the movie 😩
Omfg yes everfree was a work of art
"The spectrum of genres we've gotten has just been overwhelmingly large"
Bear in mind that these are all composed by the same guy too (although the lyrics are usually at least initially written by the episode/movie writer). MLP fans recognize Daniel Ingram for excellent quality, but we don't talk much about how ridiculously versatile he is too.
The dazzlings are so good, not just at singing. they manipulated an entire school including the teachers. even if they did use magic, it still impressive for only 3 people. they almost won against the rain booms as well, if not for sunset. their singing makes them so much better adding onto everything.
one of my favorite things about equestria girls songs is that, while in other cartoons with bands you can't really hear all the instrumenst the characters are playing, it almost always feels like there's only two or three instruments, but in EG you can identify all the instruments while they are all harmonized.
Yes more EQG reactions! i never get tired of watching these, thank you for making our day once again Matthew! the songs in EQG Rainbow Rocks are just the best the Dazzlings never failed to sing a absolute banger villain songs! that's one of the many reasons why the Dazzlings instantly became fan favorites for people in the community!
Nigga this mf everywhere lol
Boi can u go somewhere. How do you have the patience and time, and even the power, to do this.
So true
@@somerandomcassfan7289 It doesn't matter, None of it.
"Friendship Through The Ages" is honestly my favorite Equestria Girls song and I'm so happy you reacted to it. It honestly feels like an anthem not just for Equestria Girls but for MLP as a franchise and Bronies as a fandom. It just unfortunately doesn't get as much attention, mainly cause it's from Equestria Girls (And an Equestria Girls short at that.)
Also I'm with you, Anything the Dazzlings do is Pure Platinum!(Because Gold isn't good enough) It's such a shame they only have 4 songs.
Totally agree!
So to give you a little bit of context;
There are the Equestria Girls movies, 4 total, and then there's all the supplementary content. That includes things like shorts which are more slice of life 5 - 10 minute at most, and the more event driven stuff that's longer but still not movie length, the specials if you will. Those get higher stakes and more magic involved but they overall don't really come together to tell an overarching narrative or anything? So it's like semi plot driven ig, just something to show us that they still go on adventures even when the stakes aren't the end of the world, I think. Because the stakes for the movies are much higher.
Just based on the song (not its effect on people, but the lyrics) I'm siding with the Dazzlings. Allowing yourself to compete with others from time to time is way healthier than everything always having to be harmonious
ignoring the evil factor yeah i get it, friendly competition can be very fun [ignore how all the students just got angry lmao]
Friendly competition isn't the same as not being harmonious with people.
In fact its more likely to be harmonious because its friendly. there's not the negative emotions around it as its not like a fight and you still care about the person you're "battling", so you are able to feel the positive connection with them.
@@sillyface6950
yeah very fair, been a while since ive seen the movie but from what i remember the dazzlings were less focused on competition and more focused on causing infighting and arguments
@@AngstyPrinceswagnes Correct they fed on negativity and distrust of others.
I don't think I'd agree with sabotaging each other and being toxic, that's not really "friendly competition"
I started crying listening to Friendship Through the Ages just now because I’ve lost a lot of my old friends. This year was the first year most of my old friends didn’t remember my birthday and it really hurt. My life seems like it’s going by so fast and I’m not ready to let go. I feel that same bittersweet feeling because I do have some amazing “new” friends that fit me even better, the old ones still hold a special place in my heart so this song really struck all these feelings I’ve been having
There is actually 2 more songs by the Dazzlings that idk if youve heard but one is from the movie again called "Under Our Spell" and another is from an extra short called "Find The Magic"
He reacted to Under our Spell in the first video you should see it there :)
find the magic is in sunset's backstage pass
For information, this is Kazumi Evans who sings for Rarity and the singer of the Dazzlings
Fun fact: Kazumi Evans sang as both Rarity and Adagio (the main siren), the very singers you love the most
I love Friendship Through the Ages a lot. It's a short song but it goes through six genre changes, and each of them pays homage to popular music and styles of the decade it is in! Twilight has 40s, Fluttershy has 50s, Rarity has 60s, Rainbow Dash has 70s, Apple Jack has 80s, and Pinkie has 90s. It's not a perfect recreation of those eras' sounds or styles, but it's still very nice! :D And that high section at the end of the song was of course Rarity!
The main series has more fantasy/action and bigger story arcs. Equestria Girls started out in a similar way, but because of the school setting it eventually became more about smaller scale stories, so it has more shorts and slice of life stuff ^^
Would you believe that Rarity (Other Side) and Adagio (yellow Dazzling) have the same singing VA?
Mat literally roasting twilight for the first bit of the video
And then gets absolutely ruined shortly after
-if u want to hear more dazzling songs, definitely listen to “Find the Magic” !! it’s sooo good :)
-would also love to see your reaction to “Hope Shines Eternal” and “Shine Like Rainbows”! they’re both end credits songs, equestria girls finale songs always go all out with the harmonies! the layered vocals are so beautiful i swear
On your opening comment about MLP songs, I suppose that's a testament to us as a fandom. Even though the series is over and most assume we're gone, we still hang on and love to watch people enjoy the content that pushed us to love it.
Yippee!!! I’m so excited to see you react to EVEN MORE mlp songs! They’re some of my favourite videos from you!
Let it rain, the og duet version of what more is out there, legend of everfree, and friendship through the ages are my favorite Equestria girls songs
My favourite EG song is definitely 'Shine Like Rainbows', the harmonies just make you melt. Though if you want to listen to this, you have to listen to the album version, as it hits harder.
Shine like rainbows slaps!
THE SONGS ARE BOPS. CHANGE MY MIND. I DARE YOU
aint even gon tryyy
@@MathewMcKennaAgree,no changing the mind of someone whos correct
the Dazzlings are just so amazing, I remember watching RBR years ago just for the music and just jamming out for hours
i was waiting for so long for a battle of the bands reaction (yes i skipped through the video and i'm so giddy over the reaction, they are my favourite fictional singers, period) and there's one more Dazzlings song, called Find The Magic. also... maybe reactions to other language versions? 👀
Hell yeah, I was hoping someone would point that there are so many good adapted versions in other languages. I grew with the Latin Spanish version, so I honestly would love for someone in the English community to give all the EG movies songs in Spanish a try!
I, too, love all the siren's songs, fangirl them, and find them to be the top tier group when it comes to it. You should also react to "Find The Magic" by the Dazzlings. It is slower than their others, but is such a catchy bop I'm sure you'll enjoy.
I SANG FRIENDSHIP THROUGH THE AGES AT MY SCHOOL TALENT SHOW IN YEAR 3 ITS SO COOL TO SEE YOU REACT TO IT OMGGG
there's another song of them called Find the magic, its honestly an underrated banger (for my taste) and i really recommend it
-ive been waiting for your reaction to “Friendship Through the Ages” !! it’s such an uplifting and nostalgic song that i can’t help but have bittersweet feelings while listening 😭💗
The unknown voice was hilarious. I love them😂
Also tv logic (9:10) my main point always used to be that people don't eat in groups like drama and music and sports... and then I started eating in the drama room and I'm going into drama for uni. People in band eat in the band room. Sports people tend to eat in the gym. So I realized it's not that far off😂
Another Dazzlings “The Sirens” song. Find the Magic. I’m sure you’ll love it!

All about that bass cannon
The Sirens call
This show literally made my childhood- honestly you should react to some my little pony songs (from the G4 show) there are a lot of those and they still hold up today :)
The last song in this video actually made me cry when I first saw it, it’s probably because I grew up watching these characters and it sort of felt like an ending
You mean the 80s I am pretty sure you mean firendship is magic mlp g4
Same, makes me tear up every time
U should totally react to that song when twilight gets trapped by tempest, my bad I forgot what I was called.
Upon typing this I have remembered that it's called open up your eyes
I don't know if you've heard them already but the dazzlings have two more songs "under our spell" and "find the magic"
Friendship is Magic and Equestria Girls music tend to have god-tier harmonies. All the singers work great together, and I've never heard so many unique voices work well together.
There's a tendency for each character to have their own unique musical styles and sometimes singing roles. This is most notable with Fluttershy. She's very shy, and they represent that by putting her as backup vocals most of the time, rarely giving her the spotlight (as she is not comfortable in the spotlight). She still provides a ton of value to the cast's singing even from the background though - most of the time she is the one doing all those beautiful higher pitched harmonies that you keep noticing.
In any MLP song, every singer is essential for making the song work. All the harmonies made by overlapping unique melodies work extremely well, and because they are different melodies, depth would be lost even if you removed one voice. The music doesn't include the entire cast for the sake of invluding the cast. The music is written around every voice that is involved, and every piece is important.
"I love that their jewellery is... Dazzling"
HE Said The Thing HE Said The Thing!
"That's how you know she's a nerd, because she wears glasses."
Meanwhile, where Princess Twilight is who has 20-20 vision...
equestria girls songs will forever live in head rent free
The Sirens have one last song and its called Find the Magic. It's a sad but hopeful song especially if you watch themusic video. I cant recall if you've listened to this one yet but The Magic Inside of You is a really great one and its sung by Lena Hall!
Fun fact: when the "Other Side" video was first released it i kinda gave people the impression that it's suggestive you may not have seen it that way Mathew but if you observe closely enough you'll understand why people thought that, because the poses that Rarity made while wearing that jumpsuit is one of the reasons why.
there is one last song from the Dazzlings that I know of called “Find the Magic” 😊
wait this was posted 3 minutes ago?? i thought it said 3 months ago lmao.
it actually was and ur comment was a month ago
SAME I saw this and was like, wait it barely has views and realize wait its new
"Friendship through the Ages" is making me WEEP I was not prepared
Rainbow Rocks is definitely the stand out movie when it comes to the music
love this. so glad you listened to more!! u should def continue. that would make me so happy
With equestria girls there is more than just the movies.
A lot of the songs that seem to contain a whole story (if not all of them) are probably one of the shorts. So everything within those videos is the whole context, and so its different from movies songs where most of the context is probably within the dialogue of the film rather than the songs.
I NEED him to hear Find The Magic, its probably one of my top three favourite Equestria Girls songs, if not THE favourite. It IS the one song I still listen to to this day after all, and I kinda heavily relate? Its made me cry before, so
battle of the bands is my personal favorite equestria girls song. it's so catchy. i do have it in a playlist and casually listen to it haha. it's so weird hardly anyone has reacted to that one, though!
My favorite thing about friendship through the ages is the outfits. They are different outfits and hair styles from through the ages.
These movies were literally my childhood. I had a birthday party themed after the second movie specifically
OMFG FRIENDSHIP THROUGH THE AGES IS SO NOSTALGIC I WATCHED THAT VID SO MUCH MMMMH SO HAPPY U REACTED TO IT
I always love watching your MLP reactions. We need more!!
The last two songs were honestly the best ones IMO. The way that it sounds is just amazing.
Shine like rainbows from equestra girls is amazing and I’d love to see you’re reaction to it!
YES I LOVE MLP!!!!! honestly have been looking forward to this vid for a while now lol😅
FRIENDSHIP CARRIES ON THROUGH THE AGES- I HAVENT LISTENED TO THAT IN YEARS IT USED TO BE MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE CUZ IT REMINDED ME TO CHERISH WHAT I HAVE WHILE I HAD IT AND MADE ME CRY EVERY TIME
11:55 Actually there is a song called "Find the Magic" by Dazzlings. It is one of my favorite songs! You should listen to it. :D ✨
I would definitely recommend you to react to Songs from Centaur World. Some are more silly than others, some are absolute bangers and just... ugh, they are amazing
OMG I love Friendship through the Ages so much!!! The lyrics are what make me cry cause I LOVE the idea of friends different in personalities and occupations staying friends for a long time. Their connection with each other is so strong that time and distance can't break it 🥺
My song suggestions from MLP Equestria girls:
- Music to my Ears
- ACADECA
- The Midnight in me
- Dance Magic
- Shake Things Up
- Find the Magic
- True Original
"How is every part of this so good?" They're Sirens that's why ;)
There’s SO MANY amazing songs from the Friendship is Magic series, as well as the cinematic movie that I don’t think you’ve done yet! I’d love to see you react to more of those ✨
Thanks so much for making more mlp stuff dude! I always love it!
I've mentioned this before, but if you ever listen to Right There in Front of Me, make sure you hear the full version, it has a much better ending. For some reason the movie cuts it like a few seconds short (and thus many youtube versions do as well). You'd think they could let the song be like five seconds longer than the credits but apparently not idk.
Battle of the Bands is by far my favorite. Those girls singing was fire.
Thank u sm for these reactions ;) I absolutely love the Dazzlings too. Also, I would love to see you react to the songs from Legend of Everfree, especially “We will stand for Everfree” , one of my fav songs from the Equestria Girls movies
Rise up has low stakes because it's a stand alone short, and those do tend to be way more slice of life-y than the movies and specials.
Also, sunset isn't really studying throughout the music video because although she doesn't look as stereotypically nerdy as twilight, she is absolutely just as big of a nerd, so she already knew the material. In the last shot you can even see that with the exception of rarity (who's also really smart) twilight and sunset are the only ones who got an A+
The way that Mathew talks about voices makes me feel so much better about my own voice I can't even tell you
Under Our Spell is forever the best song in the franchise, fight me.
I love your reactions. You should react to MLP fandom songs. There is a creator by the name JYC Row who makes amazing songs. The few i would recommend are Final Eclipse, Aqasha, Goddess of Destruction, Dialga's Legend and Tempora's Requiem. No famdom makes better music than the MLP fandom. I believe he is still hidden as a creator and being seen by out would take him to the next lvl.
YESSSS. JYC ROW, PRINCEWHATEVERER, 4EVERFREEBRONY. Final eclipse, together against the sisters, elemental, solidarity, ghost in the sun, so many I can’t even name them all.
Since you liked Shake your Tail, I think you'll also love Perfect Day for Fun. It's from the same set of promos for Rainbow Rocks and has a similar fun sound, but I don't see it talked about as much since it wasn't in the movie like Shake your Tail
Please do more Tangled: the Series! You completely missed some amazing songs from the last/first reaction
YESSS. I cant remember which ones he has/hasn’t done.
@@warcatfurever101writeroffanfic i think he did Nothing Left to Lose, Ready as I'll ever be, Waiting in the Wings (Reprise), and I've Got This.
If you wanna listen to some more Rainbooms (the mane 7) songs, here's a list of really good ones:
Hope shines eternal
Shine like rainbows
Get the show on the road
Good vibes
Legend you were meant to be
As for the Dazzlings (the sirens), another song that you haven't listened to yet is Find the Magic. They sing about trying to adjust to ordinary human life after being defeated, and it's really nice to see their less-villainy side. You should check out both the official music video and the animatic.
they never released a full version of welcome to the show and i am still salty about it
Yes! Thank you for that reaction to "Battle".
Some suggestions
-under my spell
-find the magic (both from the dazzlings)
-my past is not today (sunset shimmer)
-dance magic
-good vibes
-so much more to me
-true original
These videos just make my day 100000000x better when i see your videos. I laughed so hard this video! Thank you so much for making such amazing and funny videos!
pinkie was holding a Ukulele in that scene because that music video is a mix up of different scenes from different episodes and that scene was from something else, pinkie plays the drums in most songs
Fun fact: At the end of Rise Up! you can see that almost everyone got different types of A's, and tbh they all lined up with my expectations
Sci Twi got an A++
Sunset and Rarity got an A+
Flutters and Pinkie got an A
And RD and AJ got an A-
YAY more! I would watch your reactions to watching the entire show
If you haven’t done it already another song by the Dazzlings is Welcome to the Show! It’s one of my absolute favorites and the harmonies are really good!
i will always adore that throughout all of battle of the bands the sirens are just flirting with everyone
I’ve been waiting on friendship through the ages for SO LONG 😆
“Do you ever just do something and go… oh yeah I 𝒻𝒾𝓁𝓂ℯ𝒹 that.”
I remember learning all the lyrics by heart such a long time ago-
I still remember them somehow
so so much seconding all the comments telling you about midnight in me and we will stand for everfree! they're so good! also "what more is out there" (i can't remember if you already did that one specifically though haha)
11:33 it was so good even mr. editor forgot to sensor while watching
I heard "next song is The Battle of the Bands" AND THE WAY I NEARLY JUMPED OUT OF MY SEAT BECAUSE THAT SONGS SLAPS SO HARD
You could react to the dazzlimgs, find the magic and then also to the animatic version that has an alternative demo of the song, that let's you hear it in a less children's show way. Both are fantastic, I recommend watching the final version first and then the animatic afterwards to not spoil it.😊
There is a lot of My Little Pony songs. But there is also more Cg5 song, so yeah.
as a mlp lover I'm so happy to open youtube to this recommended
