Spent most of last night and the better part of the day making this one. I lost track of how many episodes I took screens from. It's a lot of them.

The Rainbow Connection is up there for one of the best songs to ever come from any movie ever. The new rendition is fantastic, although it's hard to top the original .

Ponies belong to Lauren Faust.

EDIT: Grammatical error fixed. Thanks,

Nice job.The song "Rainbow Connection" was written and sung by Paul Williams the same guy who sung the song "Flying Dreams" from "The Secret of NIMH" a 1982 Don Bluth film.

Ik how to play this on the ukulele! Love this song and its so true. There is such a thing as magic, but humans can't harness it. Its inside of everything, but it's a different kind of magic than everyone expects...

A lovely MLP styled tribute to the Muppets and the late great Jim Henson. Β  Jim Henson would have been so proud.

From the pen of famed songwriter Paul Williams for the soul of a gentle genius of a man who gave us the world's most famous street (the real address that tells you "how to get" there: 1 Lincoln Plaza New York NY 10023), a vaudeville-themed theatre full of nice weirdos minded by an everyman frog & his diva hog of a girlfriend (with each show taped in London, England), an interconnected world that merges an idealized form of our human reality alongside tiny green construction workers & a family of three large giant beings who shared a symbotic relationship with the main species of musically-inclined underground furry creatures that loved to "dances [its] cares away" (they did so "down at" Toronto in Canada, where the show was recorded for an international audience as the first of its kind), and so much more!

Oh man, dude, that was beautiful. For some reason I never really got the song, but after reading this it just tugs at my heart. That was wonderful, even as screenshots you put so much time and effort into this, a lot more than many others would. Every piece of it was just perfect. Great job, beyond great even.

Yeah. Jim Henson ("The Frog") & Paul Williams [ [link] ] + Hasbro & Lauren Faust (modern creators of MLP) = AWESOME Sause

Especially since both Rainbow Dash & Red, both tomboys from their respective brands (Dash from the aformentioned pony series & Red from Jim Henson's Fraggle Rock [ [link] ]), share the same network station (The Hub).

If it wasn't for Fraggle Rock on he Hub, I don't think I would have stumble upon Ponies and become a Brony.

Well, as an 80s child, I was indoctrinated into both Fraggles (or anything Henson, really) & Ponies. Sure, I liked Henson more, but that would be due to how previous MLP series were by & ;arge done. This new show doesn't try to over-girlify the product like the toyline and earlier versions of the franchise have done, hence why guys could so easily get into it, because unlike earlier versions in which characters more or less had the same personality, this show diversified the personalities so that each pony was unique (ex: Rainbow Dash being just like Red...stubborn, competitive, abrasive--especially regarding how they feel--yet overwhelmingly loyal [Karen Prell IS the in-house Fraggle fanatic, after all & while puppeteering the ginger tomboy, it was she who compiled the Encylopedia Fragglia for generations to come] and--each in their own ways--caring for those they care for the most).

Yup, I sure did! It's probably the only PMV that I made that I would still consider decent.

Thanks, I really appreciate that! I got discouraged with making the PMVs after seeing how really great some of them were that were being done. It's nice to know that special effects aren't everything.

I've seen some terrible PMVs that focus on special effects. Excellent work always supersedes excellent effects.
