Equestria B's Theme Songs! · 11:22pm Feb 9th, 2013
After spending some time thinking, it dawned on me that if I'm going to keep a flowing timeline with the stories that all occur within the Equestria B universe, why the heck shouldn't the characters have theme songs?
Now they do! Well, some of them, anyway.

I'll update this post as I add more characters and figure out what their songs should be. If anypony reading this has some recommendations for songs I should use, feel free to tell me. The assistance will be appreciated immensely.
I feel sorry for Spike. His whole identity is about helping Twilight and being her servant. But Scootaloo's theme is probably the best fitting I think.
I think Luna's should be Monster by Skillet. I think it fits in with her turning into Nightmare Moon.

There are a few fics out there that give Spike the limelight, but I haven't quite gotten around to that yet. I do plan on him having a few chapters in a few stories though .
As for Luna and Scootaloo, Scoots is one of my favorites so of course she gets that song lol. Luna though, I wanted to give both her and Nightmare Moon different songs, that way Luna's wouldn't have to focus on her fall from grace. For Nightmare Moon, I was just going to go with "The Moon Rises", both because it seems obvious and because I love it .
