One of my closest friends in the fandom, LuckRock, and I had always talked about coming together to work on pony music together, but had to sit on the idea for awhile. However, in late 2016, we were finally able to create our duo we called Loudsdale.
During the holiday season, we decided to finally write our first song together for a competition we were entering. The only rule was "Write a pony Christmas song." Luck and I came together to put this fun song together, and I'm still shocked that we put the whole thing together from start to finish in eight days.
On top of that, we actually won the competition! My mind was blown, but it was a great thing to go into the new year with. When Luck and I get together, I always love playing this song together, regardless of season.
lyrics
When the moon comes out
To light up the fear
On the ponies faces
On this night each year
How I love to see
The spooky kind of freight
There is no holiday like Nightmare Ni-
HEY GUYS IT’S HEARTH’S WARMING EVE!!
Such colorful lights
Dancing in the streets
Let’s go to Sugarcube Corner
And get some festive treats
Have a drink of cider
Laughter is all around
Holiday magic
Is so easily found
Grab a friend and sing along
Show why friendship's burning strong
Consider this a 'Hearth’s Warming Warning'
To light the tree and spread the cheer
Fair warning, it's Hearts Warming
Time to shift it into high gear
Such fake happiness
All the tacky gifts
Filly toys are expensive
And now I’m all out of bits
Ponies I have never met
All act like they’re my best friend
And talk my b-DINGDONG-ing ear off
"Hearth’s Warming Eve is here again"
So much cheer ponies must show
They’ll cut you off to tell you so
Consider this a ‘Hearth’s Warming Warning’
The season goes on for way too long
Fair warning, it’s Hearth’s Warming
I’m already sick of this song
Give Heart’s Warming a chance to get better
You look so stupid in such an ugly sweater
Awful gifts and the stories are fake, it’s all just a big show
Ponies like you are the reason why we had the wendigos
What about this time of year
Turns you into such a pain?
There’s never anything new
Everything plays out the same
Well that's how you can always see
Your friends will bring good cheer
Well that’s true and I guess
It’s only once every year
Nice to see you finally know
Still gonna burn that mistletoe!
Consider this a ‘Hearth’s Warming Warning
Gonna sing it now with everyone
Fair warning, it’s Hearth’s Warming
Too bad the song is almost done
