Is it hard for anyone else to watch the musical parts?

Now, I love the music in this show, but it seems that I have to let it sink in a bit before I enjoy it sometimes. So sometimes if there is a song in a new episode I cringe a bit and fast forward. Is that weird?

 

I can't do that though when watching Rainbow Rocks in theaters (I missed the theater run of the first Equestria Girls) so I wonder how this will turn out.

I don't think it's all that odd. Sometimes we need something to wear on us a bit before we like it.

 

I personally love just about every song on the show and forwarding would kind of ruin my first experience with it to me.

I fast-forwarded through musical numbers initially, but I have become more forgiving toward them now.

 

And then I ended up fast forwarding through that cringe-worthy, unrelated sequence at the end of Twilight's Kingdom, Part 2...

Really? I loved 'let the Rainbow Remind you' in my initial run. It was 'raise this barn' and 'Apples to the core' that I skipped the first time I heard them.

Aw, come on! "Apples to the Core" is my jam was my jam until I heard "Bats."

 

While one could argue that musical numbers are useless padding in the first place, "Let the Rainbow Remind You" was one of the most irrelevant songs in the series. It sounded like they put it together at the last minute because they were forced to close the episode with a musical number.

I still don't care much for 'Bats'. But let the Rainbow Remind you was beautiful, much better than the song with the princesses in the first part of the finale.

Yes that happens to me sometimes.

For example I didn't like the song "Hearts as strong as Horses" the first time and I wanted to fast forward, but after watching this song again I ended up liking it.

There're some songs where it wasn't the case though, because they're really, really too girly. (the songs of EQG...)

Are you kidding me? I can hardly stomach and sit through the entire opening theme, well maybe the new 1 but still.

 

Now I'm not saying there aren't songs that are exceptional and that I enjoy, but I personally really have a strong distaste for many a Disney-esque "happy" songs. If there's one place that it still shows that FiM still primarily targets a younger (even below PG-13 audience) with a predominant little girl focus, its the blasted songs.

 

Sorry but I might be more inclined to blow my brains out than listen to some of the songs.  :mellow:

Huh, there are more people who dislike the songs than what I thought. :o

 

But to answer your question, I watch through all of the musical parts, no matter how much certain songs make me cringe. It's tempting for me to skip certain songs, but I don't hate them that much. :P

It depends on the song. I mean I can TOTALLY rock out to "Apples to the Core" any Flim Flam song, but some songs like BBBFF are ones that I still struggle to listen without groaning.
