SADDLE-TOWN
(a song of the First Generation)
Well, we're living here in Saddle-Town
Where they once burned all the factories down.
Out in Ponyville it's raiding time,
They're dealing in slaves,
And blurring the line.
Well our mothers fought the only world-war
Fought the Zebras bunkered on our shores,
Met our fathers and they had a go,
Then back to the lines,
Well, that's how it goes.
I love all the references to the geography of the coastline of the New England states in this song.

I haven't finished fixing up the first story I plan to upload here. Time and other obligations are a constraint. But last night, before bed, I whipped this up real quick. It's not a full song, but it's meant to be sung to the tune of the final verses of Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire". It's about all the MLP animated productions (sans the G3.5 ones) and meant as a reminder that, while Friendship is Magic is our favorite, it's not all that the My Little Pony franchise is, nor all that it
You know, you'd think something as unadulteratedingly over the top, theatrical and romanticized as Andrew Lloyd Webber's ABSURDLY popular musical The Phantom of the Opera would make a rather enjoyable cinematic experience. I mean, I've seen the Royal Albert Hall 30th Anniversary performance at least twice, and it's a good, solid play, with awesome songs, and a really good visual aesthetic.
Way back in August 2014, when I first joined this site, I put every story that was in the Royal Canterlot Library at that time into my "Read Later" list. For a few days/weeks, I read all of them at a steady pace. Many of them I enjoyed, some I didn't, but they were all very interesting to read.
Then, at some point, when there were three stories left, I stopped.
