B.B.B.F.F vs. This Day Aria vs. Love is in Bloom

[Gizmo 206]

Oh man i'd by lying if I said I preferred B.B.B.F.F. , But I really really really enjoyed This Day Aria, I absolutely love when villains have a song in a show or movie, to me it just seems so passionate to me because they convey their whole plan and how much they worked to just get one perfect chance to ruin someones life, so much planning, so much care and nurture for a plan that they held on to for so long. GAH, I love it!!!! Don't get me wrong, I'm not rooting for the villain to win, it's just so much emotion that a really really good villain has that gets my attention. I think this is why MLP:FiM's villains have been so successful, They're only around for an episode or two yet they have such great ambitions and are so well written that they always get a great response from the fan base! I mean I don't think any of you can say that "Oh, Discord/NightMare Moon/Chrysalis was terribly written, I don't know why they even put her/him in there" because they're all amazing! I'm most excited though because this is the fist villain that gets her song, and it's so well sung and in such a beautiful voice

Dafuq? No love for 'Love Is In Bloom'? That was my fav!

 

Sorry I keep forgetting about that one lol, even compared to the other two its really short. It is another really beautiful song though

[XMark 18]

This day aria, because I love epic Disney-style villain songs and Cadence has a great singing voice.

 

BBBFF was frickin' cute as hell though.

[Page Turner 607]

'Love is in bloom.'

[Titan Rising 2,156]

Maybe there should be a poll here? Anyways, when I first heard This Day Aria, I couldn't help but think 'this song is going to be perfect,' and it was! That said, I do also like BBBFF and Love is in Bloom... The finale was so full of great music.

 

Good idea! Poll added!

[~Chaos~ 3,966]

It's close, but I'm going to have to go with This Day Aria, Love Is In Bloom is a close second

[Titan Rising 2,156]

Bump ^^

[Thebeardedone 0]

This day Aria listening to it now

[Dark Qiviut 22,185]

This Day Aria is not only the best song amongst the trio, but eclipsed The Smile Song as best song in the show, period! It has a majestic Disney-like quality in its tone and musical prowess. Very dramatic and moving. And excellent contrast between villain!Cadance and real!Candance.

great ninjas minds think alike

 

NO! We can't let anyone know our secret.

[Applesmack & Brandy 120]

BBBFF is best finale song.

[Flutterash 41]

This Day Aria and Love is in Bloom are very closely tied.

 

But, lacking a full version of LIB, I will give my vote to Aria, for now.

[Lily Sapphire 65]

I think my order of favourites is:

1. Love is in Bloom

2. This Day Aria

3. BBBFF

 

 

I can't wait for the full version of Love is in Bloom to come out!

This Day Aria. No contest.

 

This

[Sandwhisper 33]

B.B.B.F.F. had... almost a tune similar to Winter Wrap Up. Or maybe I was hearing things. But if I'm correct, that took it down a bit for me. Love is in Bloom was cute too, but This Day Aria is simply memorable and lovely.

[Chrysalisa 60]

I would have to say This Day Aria. It was my favorite.

[Mare in the Moon 173]

Dunno why, but This Day Aria gave me chills. Both because its good and slightly creepy. I've heared a few very good remixes. I think its the best of the 3 songs.

 

BBBFF easily my second.

[KakeiTheWolf 652]

I really liked This Day Aria. The singing is just great. Very much of a Disney feel, as people have noted.

 

I also liked Love is in Bloom, despite it's length.

[Titan Rising 2,156]

Wow tons of people love This Day Aria lol. Didn't think BBBFF would fall behind so much

[Marcusaralius76 150]

I loved the Disneyfying "This Day" the other ones were good, but that one sold it!

[Proctra Music 335]

The remix's for BBBFF are simply amazing! I like This Day Aria as a more mellow deep song.

BBBFF is cheery and has a great beat to it making it really catchy.

[Pony Joe 582]

This Day Aria, by far. It's by far the most dramatic song in MLP history, in turn expressing treachery, despair, triumph, haste, and love.

 

As great as BBBFF is, it just can't compare. It is my second favorite, though, since I'm not a huge fun of poppy songs like Love Is In Bloom.

[PonyHag1 591]

I guess I'm in the minority that liked "Love Is In Bloom."

[Proctra Music 335]

There are 4 of you as of now, so no.

This Day Aria.

 

It's the best aria I've ever heard sung in English (although there aren't very many of those, at least when considering the Romance languages...). It's also the only aria (defined as a single voice singing with musical accompaniment) that had two roles in it, as there can only be one voice. What's more, this is not due to a low-budget production that just had one singer, but instead the plotline (Cadence/her clone) actually made the nature of the aria work.

 

What's more, I think "This Day Aria" is a good example of how opera can be made to work with not just the English language, but with American culture and influence. That is, it becomes more Broadway-esque: There is little repetition in the lyrics, which try to aid comprehension of the story. In traditional opera long arias are simply artistic, they do not significantly add (except with displays of emotion) to the libretto. The whole style of "This Day Aria", from the way the lyrics were written, to Cadence/Chrysalis' acting, to the way Brittany McKillip (Cadence's VA) sang the piece, evokes Broadway, but the influence of opera is very strong, down to the song's very name. And it is for these reasons that it gets my vote.

 

And all this from a "children's show"...
