M.C. Very good artist if you like electronica and downtempo with vocals. Favorite track: Against All Odds.
Nightingale

Nightingale Probably the most beautifully crafted album from this artist, and a rarity among mainstream brony media which prioritizes electronic, dance, remixes and pop music. His age factor is quite compelling, however more brony musicians are also producing music at the same age. However, the distinction is his type of music, relaxing, dreamy instrumentals that is fit to play numerous of times. His works are a momento towards, perhaps, the Equestrian dream in which we all want to belong in. Favorite track: Against All Odds.

It's been so long Almost too long If I could go back I'd change it all You wanted what I had That's not so bad I just wish that I'd been more for you You were my little sister How I could fail you so badly How I could I let you down And let you fall And oh how you fell I'm so sorry But now the future is ours My sister dear And I want to take you Under my wing I want to show you the sky Like you never remembered, Never remembered before Never remembered, never remembered, Never remembered before Never remembered, never remembered before Sister, we're flying My heart is rising with you Sister, we're soaring My heart is soaring too Sister, do you forgive me now Sister, do you know I love you Sister, Sister, Sister, Sister

Grounded 05:13
Sitting here On the ground Looking up And looking down Watching them Fly high Soaring up Through the sky Oh, I wish I could fly I wish I could fly You're so strong I'm so small Why can't I do This at all? Every time I simply fall Oh, I wish I could fly This blue sky So far I need myself A wishing star If I ever hope of reaching par With you Take me away Take me away Take me away Take me away Lost in fear Lost in need My hopes still soar My hopes to be Something more Something more than me I wish I could fly I wish I could fly I wish I could fly I wish I could fly Take me away Take me away Take me away Take me away Still here On the ground Looking up And looking down Watching them Fly high Soaring up Through the sky Oh, I wish I could fly I wish I could fly I wish I could fly I wish I could fly

Take the winds In their stride Shift and fall Twist and glide Feel the air Whisper fade Close to the sun Out of the shade Silence falls All but in mind Voices lost Hard to find Hearts a burst Much to say Tattered past Charming day There's so much I Want to say to you But there's no way of telling you There's so much I Want to say to you But there's no way of telling you Celestia Luna Celestia Luna Celestia Luna My sister, my sister Sisters so close Yet so far apart Sisters so opposite Yet the same at heart Tongues are tied Wings are spread Neither wants to say the things that they Promised themselves they would have said The things they would have said Would have said Take the winds In their stride Shift and fall Twist and glide Feel the air Whisper fade Close to the sun Out of the shade Silence falls All but in mind Voices lost Hard to find Hearts a burst Much to say Tattered past Charming day

I look around and all I see are my own fears And I know that my self-doubt is what they're feeding off This window of perspective may not come again So my friends I must say goodbye to you, my fears You wore the mask of my companions I no longer need your security I see what you really are I spent my life curled in your clutches Wishing for the light to stream on in When you cheated me all along My strength devoured, my heart in ashes You took it all in your careless stride You, my fears You, my weakness I will never bow down to you again I promise you I'll never let you win For I now know the power that's within me And for this I will set myself free I'll set myself free I'll set myself free I will never bow down to you again I promise you I'll never let you win For I now know the power that's within me And for this I will set myself free I'll set myself free I'll set myself free

There's so much emptiness It's lifeless, except for me Shadow one side, other light It's conflicted, just like me Little voices inside my head Whispering, weaving fables Shattering, turning tables Little voices inside my head I remember every detail I understand, I comprehend I was unruly, not myself I fear that this is not the end Little voices inside my head Choking heart, night-time terrors Crushing rights, kind to errors Littles voices inside my head

My wings were made of metal My heart of stone I felt nothing From my skin to my bone But I now I see Yeah I now I see That all I have to do is just let it Just let it go My heart is beating Now it's got something to hold I feel love I believe what I'm told That you love me Yeah you love me The past is the past, now I've let it I've let it go You're my dearest sister Please don't cry I was to blame Your choice was banish or die I don't hate you I can't hate you Our future is bright, now we've let it We've let it go

Hope 06:34
How could you know My candle's fading? Strength's evading me? How could you know That I am falling? Ever calling to see A saviour come from high, And take my broken wings, And lift me to the sky, And open my eyes? How could you know? How could you know That all I need is what's in front of me? How could you know I'm paralyzed, I'm petrified of what could be? But you smile and warm my skin With your light from deep within And you tell me that your strength Is my own from now on Know that my hope is restored Now that you're watching over me Know that I will now rejoice Now I have a chance to be Someone new, someone like you Someone new, someone like you Know that my hope is restored Now that you're watching over me Know that I will now rejoice Now I have a chance to be Someone new, someone like you Someone new, someone like you How did you know My candle was fading? Strength was evading me? How did you know? That I was falling? Ever calling to see A saviour come from high, And take my broken wings, And lift me to the sky, And open my eyes? How did you know? How did you know That all I needed Was someone new? Someone like you Someone like you Someone like You

Once upon a time there was little filly Her name was Scootaloo She tried to spread her little wings and join the winds But this she found she could not do All the other pegasai just found it easy She wanted to fly too But they just laughed and jeered and scorned her when she did try So from her own kind she withdrew And all alone she faced the odds They were against her Just like everypony else And when the night came She huddled by herself The roof above her head, the stars Oh the stars Day after day she'd go school and then come home Which was nowhere, nopony knew She was cracking, she was breaking deep down inside She didn't know how to get through But then she met some in her class who shared a problem They had no cutie mark too She knew what she had to do So with her friends she faced her odds They were against her But not everypony was And when her trials came her test her strength With her friends she faced the odds When she woke she didn't dread that day was coming The sky seemed more blue And though her problems didn't leave, nor did her courage With her friends to pull her through Once upon a time there was a little filly Her name was Scootaloo Life held her down, but she refused to let it conquer She just changed her point of view And with a smile she faced she odds They were against her But that didn't matter now And when she looked up to the sky It didn't taunt her, but welcomed her With open arms With open arms

about

It's here. It took much longer than it should have, but it's here.

I approached Feather with two songs (Flight I and II) from what would become this album a few weeks after we worked on 'I Will Be Strong' together, and luckily she was totally on board with it. Things quickly got out of hand and the number of songs grew. By a lot. Whoops.

This has been in production for a long time due to many technical difficulties, so... Sorry about that. Hopefully it was worth the wait!

Flight:
Songs about Celestia and Luna's reconciliation.

All the other ones:
Songs about Scootaloo's struggle with aerodynamics (because she can't fly lol).

Enjoy the album!
