Sometime after Nightmare Nights retired, I got involved with another local pony convention that was born: HarmonyCon! With Nightmare Nights, I was brought into something that was already established. That was incredibly special, but it was something else entirely to get to be a part of something like HarmonyCon from its very beginning. I've often described it like "Walking through a dream."
This was my first time getting to be the mascot for anything, let alone a convention. This also introduced me to my dear friend and fellow mascot, Brittney Ackerman. We came together and wrote this song for the con!
She and I have plans on coming back to this one on a later date, but I was happy that since this project was so recent, it was actually nowhere near as difficult to find the tracks as some of the others on here.
lyrics
The first steps begin the colorful parade
The first notes give way to a symphony
A painting awaits behind every stroke
And a hive behind every buzzing bee
We got the chance to make something special
Something nopony will ever forget
So let's all go to work and spread the word
Our greatest stage is about to be set, yeah!
We can trot along on our own
Write a story only one can tell
But as the friends we've made along the way have shown
We can sing out song and sing it well
And when we feel that magic all around
With love as far as the eyes can see
It becomes a beautiful sound
Where the lost are finally found
It becomes the sounds of harmony
Seeing us all here makes this one of a kind
Watching the joy ignite in everypony's eyes
It's worth all the work to see you all smile
Even now, I feel the excitement rise
So much to do, so many memories to make
And we've got new friends to help us sing along
So come and join the fun, we've just begun
When you're with us, know that you all belong because
We can trot along on our own
Write a story only one can tell
But as the friends we've made along the way have shown
We can sing out song and sing it well
And when we feel that magic all around
With love as far as the eyes can see
It becomes a beautiful sound
Where the lost are finally found
It becomes the sounds of harmony
We can trot along on our own
Write a story only one can tell
But as the friends we've made along the way have shown
We can sing out song and sing it well
And when we feel that magic all around
With love as far as the eyes can see
It becomes a beautiful sound
Where the lost are finally found
It becomes the sounds of harmony
