im currently working now and then on the lattes chapter of my Comedy, Adventure, New ponies on the block and the Chapter will include a Song sang by one of the 3 main chars the song is a ponyfied version of this [youtube]5geL0EwZK18[/youtube] its a parody of a Russian nursery rhyme ((at least i think Russian)) and im gonna need help in ponyfieing this (cause im lazy and not a good song writer)) and possably change one or two things to fit the chars personality ((just think of a male trixie but replace powerful with perfect and in-charge))
I'm very sorry, but it seems a little hard to accomplish without knowing the background and context. I'll try and get farther in your fiction myself, but as for immediate help, I'm at a loss, unfortunately.
haha immediate help is not what i aiming for, i know song writing and all that is difficult and hard to do so in no way shape or form do i expect epic lyrics or any form of lyrics to come out after i posted this so far all i got is, when i was just a little colt
Doesn't seem like much to change, but perhaps "the war" could be swapped with the first rise of Nightmare Moon, and then the military could possibly be an ode to the New Lunar Republic.
Now, I have no idea what the context is, as I said, but this is just a crapshoot to see if I could guess most of it When I was just a little colt, I asked my mother "what will I be? will I be lucky? Will I be rich?" Here's what she said to me Que Sera Sera Whatever we make will be The future's the blankest flank Que Sera Sera We've now gone and changed your form We've added some magic, too but you'll be the prettiest, and outclass us all and outlive us all when I was young and saw the crown, I asked Celest, "what lies ahead?" will we have good hay day after day? Here's what her Grace said to me: "Que Sera Sera whatever we make will be the future's the blankest flank Que Sera Sera These are what we build we shining buildings, indeed magic does our work for us I'll think for us from now And build for us from now" When I was old the war had come day after day, the pies, they fell the great spells did come day after day ever so flashingly Que Sera Sera Whatever will be will be The future's the blankest flank Que Sera Sera and beyond that, the context is so stretched I can't help. I just stuck to the plotline of the Romantically Apoc. Version, since I figured that if you were just aiming for the message and tune, you'd have posted the actual Que Sera Sera.
"That's typical. Galaxy was a tyrannical and fascist leader from when Celestia had a sudden illness, to teach children about him would expose them thowards the nightmares he brought across. But it's good to know that this...Celestia is nothing like Galaxy. And it's even better that Equestria is being led by her and not him,not by Discord or Kaisar or any of those leaders." Venquis then opened up a small map detailing the area around Equestria and Ellion and tried to locate Canterlot. He had never been there,but he heard that it was alot like Neroma. "When is she expecting me. I need to pack some gear if this is a long trip." Venquis said. "Oh. Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Venquis Razona."
believe it or not youve giving me something great to work with (some parts will be changed but that's to be expected seance its more about the char that's singing it then whats going on {its Aquarius Strange that's singing})

"i think it um.... sounds like its in our heads" Fishcored said with wonder "you know i think your right Fishcored, and i think its getting louder" Aquarius pointed out shacking his head a little "and you know what?" he suddenly hopped ontop of the barrels "i suddanly have a unshackable urge to sing" "*oh* please dont" Scales begged Aquarius. ============ {Aquarius} When I was just a little colt, (to late) I asked my mother "what will I be? will I be perfect? Will I be rich?" Here's what she said to me: Que Sera Sera Whatever we make will be The future's the blankest flank. Que Sera Sera (you really need to stop) (oh but were just getting started) {Aquarius} We've now gone and changed your form We've added some magic, too but you'll be the prettiest, and outclass us all and outlive us all (That umm... looks like fun) (yeah i bet i could sing like that) (oh well in that case why dont you both take the next verse?) {Scales and Fishcored} when we was young and saw the crown, we asked dear Luna, "what lies ahead?" will we have good hay day after day? Here's what her Grace said to us: "Que Sera Sera whatever i say will be the future's the blankest flank. Que Sera Sera {Scales} These are what we build these shining monuments, indeed {Fishcored} magic does our work for us I'll think for us from now And build for me from now" (wow you both were horrible) (Pfft like you could do better) (oh will im glad you asked) {Aquarius} When I was old the night did come day after day, the moon, did stay the great spells did come day after day ever so flashingly {all three} Que Sera Sera Whatever will be will be The future's the blankest flank. Que Sera Sera {Fishcored} We joined this world {Scales} And created a storm, {Aquarius} took the image of a god ever so perfictly (now for the last verse) {Aquarius} Now i have Subjects of my own they ask Aquarius "what will we do?" {Scales} "will we survive?" {Fishcored} "how will we eat?" {Aquarius} i tell them tenderly Que Sera Sera Whatever WE SAY will be the future is OURS to forge. do not question ME.
I love how it turned out! Great work, Valor, that fit perfectly with the tune, and it seems like it will fit the fiction like a glove! I can't wait to see it when you add it into the series.
thank you and thanks to a large sum of help from you mind you, i did only back ground voice's and no description of what they were doing so that the reader might use there imagination and picture it in there head (as i know some people love to do)
Well, it isn't like it is necessary for the fic itself, but thank you very much nonetheless- I am having lots of trouble with this one. In my boredom and strange habits, I adapted the song "We Didn't Start the Fire" to the rule of my fanfic's Celestia XI (the one we all know and love) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m50p-XScreM) Anyways, I know the lyrics of this piece are a little...unexplanatory and don't make much sense in such a context, but I was wondering how 'off' I was with getting it to the flow of the song. Red Council, rising day, Little sister locked away, limitations, regent power, bureaucratic woe. Mareliners, Free Feathers, Muskhoovites, bad weathers, Griffon reserves, royal seizures, Celestia's all go Eastern bribes, Diamond Sun, Phoenix Legion's shiny gun, Printing Rights, Clergy's sad, everyone's a little mad River Council, angry lords, Eastly protests, Fire Chords, Hoofington, Apples strike, Diamond gets to meet a pike!

Too many fire-related mlp pics to resist.
hmmm iv never heard the song before but it seems you got the song spot on but i kinda see spots of the lyrics when the song gose in these parts astern bribes, Diamond Sun, Phoenix Legion's shiny gun, Printing Rights, Clergy's sad, everyone's a little mad River Council, angry lords, Eastly protests, Fire Chords, Hoofington, Apples strike, Diamond gets to meet a pike! would feel a bit off singing it seems way i see it, with sound they seem to be a phrase 1 Da da, phrase 2 da da da, phrase 3 da da da da da (and sometimes a 6th da depending on the word) im not getting the phrase 3 sound on a few and thats something seance this seams like a spot of the song were the beat would be the same in both music and vocal
