“Friendship U“ (Instrumental Version) from the episode “Friendship University” of "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” (S08E16).

--Overall Comments--

Flim, Flam, Chancellor Neighsay, and Star Swirl are all back in this week’s episode, which pits a brand new “Friendship” University up against Twilight’s School of Friendship.

After a long hiatus, this week’s episode finally features a new song from Daniel Ingram.  And it’s another Flim Flam song, in a similar vein to their previous “Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000” and “Flim Flam Miracle Curative Tonic” from seasons 2 and 4 respectively.  But this time, they are laying the con down on Twilight Sparkle instead of Applejack for once!

In addition to the return of the classic Flim Flam song, their leitmotifs, as well as that of Chancellor Neighsay, return for this episode in William Anderson’s score.

Let’s dive in!


--Track Specific Comments--

It’s been all the way since episode 6 of this season that we last were graced with a song, and now at episode 15 we finally have our fourth of the season.  It’s another Flim and Flam song; their third of the series after Season 2’s “Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000” and season 4’s “Flim Flam Miracle Curative Tonic.”

The tone and instrumentation of this song follows suit of its predecessors.  It starts with a sappy, sad sounding intro as the duo suckers in their next victims.  However, the song quickly picks up pace as they begin their con.  The sound of it certainly fits in with their previous songs, with its very upbeat, bouncy tempo, that makes you want to chant “cider! cider! cider!’ behind it.  The instrumentation is similar, but features more brass throughout, to match the instrumentation of a typical university school song.

Tara strong provides some vocals throughout the song as she slowly challenges their claims more and more.

Flim and Flam sure know how to work a crowd into a frenzy with a catchy song!
