“A Bit Carried Away” BGM from the episode “A Rockhoof and a Hard Place” of "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” (S08E21).


--Overall Comments--

Rockhoof (and the rest of the Pillars) return for an episode after being brought to the present in last season's finale!  Unlike his peers, Rockhoof is having a hard time fitting into the present day, and is struggling to find his place in his new life.

This episode is packed to the brim with score, with countless cues from past episodes reprised.  To go along with the episode's massive cast list, with all of the Pillars (sans Starswirl) returning for scenes, each of their leitmotifs and musical stylings from last season make returns in this episode.  From Rockhoof's bombastic score, to Flash Magnus' heroic horns, to Mistmane's beautiful oriental motif, we are able to hear them one more time as each of the characters appears.

A lot to cover today, so let’s dive in!


--Track Specific Comments--

Rockhoof's heroic nature gets a little carried away when he mistakes a dragon fire competition for the school being on fire.

The track begins with a more somber instrumentation and feel as Rockhoof reflects on his failures.  The instrumentation continues to exhibit his leitmotif's throughout.  As the "fire" begins, it transitions to more heroic action score, and then to something slightly more wacky as his antics continue.  This transitions back to the somber score after Rockhoof realized he messed up again.

A short, radical surfing cue is heard twice and Pinkie surfs by.
