“An Old Book” BGM from the episode “Fame and Misfortune” of "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” (S07E14).


--Overall Comments--

Twilight decides to publish the Mane 6’s old Friendship Journal in an attempt to try and spread more friendship lessons across Equestria.  It unfortunately doesn’t pan out quite the way she wants it to!

It’s pretty interesting and neat to have an episode focused on the friendship journal again, especially so many years down the line.  In addition to some fun tracks that take us through the Mane 6 going more and more insane after the book’s release, William Anderson also gives us some now older themes to bring us back.  The most prominent is the full version of the “Magic of Friendship” theme, which was prominently used throughout Season 4, but hasn’t been used as much in Seasons 6 or 7.  It was nice to see its reuse in a prominent moment in this episode, which centers around the book also from the fourth season.

Most surprisingly, however, this episode contains another song, riding off one we heard just last week!  “Flawless” is another beautiful group number for all of the Mane 6, which also features solos for each.  It’s great to hear another song so quickly, even if that means we only have one more to go this season…

Let’s dive in!


--Track Specific Comments--

The group goes through the old Friendship Journal.  After some backing score for Rainbow Dash, and more grand score for Starlight’s spell, we hear a little drop of Starlight’s old leitmotif from Season 5, as she talks about what she used the spell for previously.  Great to hear many little old leitmotifs being utilized in this episode.

After this, another small cue makes an appearance, the new Castle motif.
