Winter Wrap-Up (PowerMetal?)

First WIP! Vocals are rough as hell, there will be other people hopefully on the chorus to maintain the group feeling. I think the intro is decent though needs to be resung and I need a female to be twilight so you don't have to listen to me trying to hit those notes gracefully.

Other things: Need to add flavorful orchestrations and more interesting keyboards. The arrangement will continue with the guitar and it will be pretty sweet.
Apple Jacks verse probably won't be arranged at all as its really cool.
More changes forthcoming.

PM me if you need help with keys...
I can't promise that i'll do any better than you but i can try my hooves at it.

Hey not bad at all. It does sound a little rough around the edges, but look who's talking. xD Can't wait to hear the finished song!

I may do so if needed, it may just be sustained stuff so I may just program it.

Regardless, small change basically just some production stuff.

Some pad sounds should do wonders... If you don't want it to become too soft, i'd play just the 5ths. But full chords wouldn't sound too bad either.
But you've done good job!
Keep it up!

Length. After Applejacks verse comes the guitar solo and intrumental interlude or something.

NO vocals yet, have relatives over and I can't hit them highnotes without getting looouddd. Next up is Twilights final verse, and then the last chorus .

WOOO! Guitar done in one take just for example.

Stay thirsty my friends

I love it.

Need to finalize the ending, work on that final breakdown... Cut my balls off >_>
I think I can hit that High note, I just need to practice and stuff and maybe I'll get it.

I think I plan on Two editions. One with just me. And one where there's actually people being the ponies. I would like to request either a Twilight sparkle or someone who is really good at ripping and manipulating vocals. Thanks.

Other than that, this is getting to a close, then I just have to record everything for high quality and mix it and master it.

What do you guys think?

*watches a tumbleweed go by*

Added guitar solo (need to adjust that run that starts it off at the very least and probs the tone)
Added epic backing choirs.
Added some extra harmonies in that last chorus
Added in my little sister and her friend on the chorus.
