I.......really....don't know....

 

The latter is very, very, very long. It almost kinda reminds me of a PMV. The first one is more reminiscent of the show's message, and contains a lot of wordplay. :X

 

I really don't know.....I'll go with the first one.

The italian version. Since I can understand Italian, I know the lyrics. They are quite beautiful and peaceful. The singing is also quite good.

 

Oh, and it's not really Born to Fly. The song is named "Vole e vai", IIRC, which is Italian for "Go and fly".

Italian hands down. The English version tries to shoehorn puns into the lyrics so badly that I want to cringe til my teeth break.

The Italian version is just way to animeish for my tastes. It's not that that's a bad thing but I've seen far to many cartoons trying to go that way.

It appears I made a tie. I voted for the English. I can fully understand the Italian one, but it just doesn't fit MLP at all to me. I know lots of people have said this, but it does seem to be more of an anime intro. The English one just really sticks on me. And I adore the echoes in the wordplay part. Now we need Derpy in the English one.

You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do." - Steve Jobs

I don't really like both.... I always skip the english vesion when I'm watching the episodes. It reminds me thats I am watching a little girls show, but that fades when the actual show starts :lol:

 

 

so i guess ill just say the italian version

Ugh... it's really hard to decide. The english one seems...... hasty, compared to the italian one.

But both of them are really good... #Can'tChoose. D:

I'm not a huge fan of the full-length English opening, it's a little too cheesy with the puns. I'll have to go with the Italian one.


It's ironic how I fall just to get back up again...

I like Born to fly better, but I hope that the intro will NOT be lengthened, as a longer into means less time for the actual show.

 

Think of it this way:

 

They have to fill a 30 minute period.

 

Commercials account for about 6-8 minutes of that.

 

That leaves 24-22 minutes for the show, minus the intro.

 

Normal intro: 40 seconds

 

This intro: 2 minutes.

 

would you rather watch a 23:20 long show or a 22:00 long show?
