Tales 19 May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 I know Equestria Girls has often received the short-end of the stick when it comes to music, but I personally feel like this latest song is an all-time low. They use an air horn in a pandering 'meme' way, and the only character who can really rap is Pinky Pie. This is just my own biased opinion though. I am curious to know what your thoughts on the song are. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toon4Thought 274 May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 It's one of few EqG I legitimately don't like. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megas 27,576 May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 This was a really shitty song and is probably the worst of the “how do you do fellow kids” trends the last few shorts has been doing. Worst song in the entire franchise and it’s not even close 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacodidra 61,092 May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 Not really one of my favorite EqG songs, that's for sure. Though I do kind of enjoy it in a "so bad it's good" way (so I guess it's not a complete miss). Some parts of it aren't bad at all (the sung parts), but others don't really work as well. Sunset Shimmer rapping wasn't very high on my wish list, and in all honesty, I think she should stick to singing from now on. The absolute worst part (even worse than Spike's unnecessary interlude) was the one about Applejack falling asleep, the lyrics were embarrassing there. They actually showed a clip from this song in the "Spring Breakdown" Comic-Con teaser... That makes me wonder if it was originally meant to be in the special and then cut (maybe because of it's slightly questionable quality ). 5 Signature by @Sparklefan1234 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbertha 414 May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 Yeah. It's the worst thing G4 (debatably My Little Pony as a whole) has ever done and kinda makes me die inside thinking about it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a music video that was supposed to be 'tied' to the episode. Trust me; You won't be spoiling any of "Spring Breakdown" by watching the music video.

Flutterstep 47,069 May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 What can I say? It was different. I like that they tried something new and experimented with new genres. They even mocked some of the tropes you get with some newer music videos today, but still tried to keep the song to their own. I’d give it a 5/10, wouldn’t listen to it again. Spike had best verse. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrond 3,263 May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 I don't even know what they're doing with this one. I thought it would be a lot more Lonely Island-esque but this mostly reminds me of the beach ones from last year in that this wouldn't be any different were it set in Equestria. I'm amused to see these characters rapping, but the song itself is just kinda lame and limp and overly sanitized. Pinkie has a sick flow tho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmarston1 5,959 May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 I am going to be the outlier here and say that I enjoyed it. I found how over the top and ridiculous it was to be entertaining and not annoying. But that's just me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashen Pathfinder 16,161 May 26, 2019 Share May 26, 2019 As open minded and accepting as I usually am...that song was absolutely atrocious, and the video was way too jumpy for my tastes. I mean is seems like they had so many scenes to put it and just...it didn't work out at all. And that song...bad. IIRC, Ingram was no longer working on EqG at this point, and...it shows in this case. 3 Pathfinder I Sojourner I Corsair | Zu'hra I Autumn | Scarlet Willow | Gypsy | Silverthorn | Crystal Whisper | Radiant Historia | And many other OCs~ Matching signatures with mah Bestie MOONLIGHT <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Qiviut 22,386 May 28, 2019 Share May 28, 2019 …is this piece of shit supposed to be a joke?! I have no idea if it's meant to satire contemporary culture or embrace it! It panders WAY too hard to the modern demographics to be a parody, and the subject and lyrics are too damn STUPID to be taken seriously. Also, OW, MY EYES! I don't need any form of animation to implement SHAKY CAM! *goes off to soothe my eyes* Fuck this "music video"! 1 "Talent is a pursued interest." — Bob Ross Pro-Brony articles: 1/2/3/4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDDash 19,169 May 28, 2019 Share May 28, 2019 (edited) Still better than I'm on a Boat by The Lovely Island . I really liked I'm on a Yacht and I have a suspicion it was inspired by that song. I think the song supposed to be a joke. But anyway the best performance by the Sunset Shimmer so far. Edited May 28, 2019 by R.D.Dash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katzoo12 41 June 1, 2019 Share June 1, 2019 I don't know about you guys but I LOVED it! The visuals, the chorus...but if there's one thing I DON'T like, it's the quality of the lyrics in the "AJ gets a sunburn" part. Other than that, it's great in my opinion, and I actually ended up having a dance party in my room to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunar Glow 676 June 18, 2019 Share June 18, 2019 I think it's lazy, so I certainly agree that they're just trying to appeal to meme culture...it was obnoxious and not even entertaining in it's insanity. 1 Avatar by @Bakugou is my Man <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solar Power 295 July 7, 2019 Share July 7, 2019 Despite being wonderfully cheesy I loved it. I loved it because it was so cheesy. It's exactly what I want from Equestria Girls. It's always been FIM's geeky, uncool cousin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
