Pony References In Non-Pony Songs


Swit Swat

So, I've noticed in a few songs I like, that they make unintentional references (not really references, but, you know what I mean) to ponies. Here are a couple:

 

 

Jet (1974) - Wings

 

-Paul Mccartney mentioned that this song was based off of a pony you used to have. Though the lyrics have almost nothing to do with a pony.

 

-One of the song's lyrics quotes, "I thought the only lonely place was on the moon." You all get the reference there, I hope...

Dig A Pony (1970) - The Beatles

 

-The title says it all.

 

-The first part of the lyrics go like this: "I Dig A Pony, Well You Can Celebrate Anything You Want", which makes me think of Pinkie Pie who celebrates everything and anything.

 

Now your turn. Do you guys have any other pony references in songs you like or have just heard? I did have another song, but It didn't let me post 3 videos.

Not really references but I know what you mean.. I'm sure I can find many of them if I just listen to some songs.

I'm a Beatles fan myself, and never thought about Dig a Pony as a MLP refference. You may be right. But I'm unsure about it, I think that Dig a Pony was released before the ,,party Pinkie Pie" was made.

I know it was realesed before even the first MLP came out. But, I'm just pointing out examples that make me think of ponies. :3

Dragonforce-Valley of the Damned

 

1st refrain:

On the wings of death by the hands of doom

By the darkest light from the darkest moon

Crossing silent seas over mountains high

For we stand as one tonight

 

later in the second refrain:

On the wings of life, by the hands of hope

By the brightest light from the brightest sun

Crossing silent seas over mountains high

To the valley of the damned

 

Definately reminds me of Celestia and Luna/Nightmare Moon

This makes me think of Rainbow,

 

Running, scrambling, fire,

Rolling, turning, diving, going in again.

Running, scrambling, fire, Rolling, turning, diving,

Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die.

Won't you run, live to fly, fly to live

 

From Aces high by Iron Maiden.

Brushing your hair is for people who care and someone who cares is not I, I'll jump off a bridge and then fill up your fridge,
and best pony is Fluttershy.

 

Her face is still blushing and she is still eating the pasta.

The whole fly to live bit makes me think of Rainbow. Since she practically lives for her friends and for her love of flying. But it does remind me of Spitfire too, seeing as the song is about pilots going into battle.

Mistranslations of Thessalonians (The Letters of Saint Paul [of Damascus] to the Church of Thessalonica, written AD 105) reads "horses" instead of "gentle". Other mistranslations make it say "little children".

 

Somewhere in Revelations it says "And I saw an angel come down clothed in Cloud and Rainbow"

Tell me that the intro and chorus doesn't sound like Pinkie's No Fear song. I dare you.

"Lorelei" by Styx. Lol not really just it makes me think of Fluttershy ;)

When I think of Lorelei

My head turns all around

As gentle as a butterfly

She moves without a sound

 

And then the intro to the second verse:

 

Her eyes become the paradise

She softly speaks my name

She brightens every lonely night

No one's quite the same

 

Yeah, really just a fantastic song...

 

Wait a second.

 

"Brightens every lonely night.."

 

Where and with whom is Flutter spending her nights?! :blink:
