“Best Friends Forever?" BGM from the episode “Amending Fences” of "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” (S05E12).


--Overall Comments--

After a few episode which focused more on comedy and characters, episode 12 of season 5, “Amending Fences” focuses more on emotions and characters.  It was a fantastic episode that revisited a small moment from the first episode of the series, and expanded upon it and its characters, bringing further depth to the show.  The amount of callbacks and explanations to/of stuff from previous seasons, particularly 1 & 2, was great to see.  M. A. Larson once again shows that he is the continuity king of MLP.

The music of this episode, much like the story, was heavy on the feels and callbacks.  We get reprises of many themes throughout, including Princess Twilight’s theme, and the “There You Are, Twilight” theme from the very first episode.  Much like the previous episode, we’ve got quite a few tracks jam-packed in this week, so let’s get right to it!


--Track Specific Comments--

As Twilight catches up with a bunch of her old friends, we get a simple piano theme to set the mood.  Twilight begins explaining why she’s come back, and we get a reprise of a piano / guitar motif which has been used a few times before in season 4 & 5.  It was last used in the season 5 premiere after everyone gets their cutie marks back in the “Cutie Marks Recovered Suite” near the end.  Before that it was also used in season 4’s “Trade Ya” in the track “Not a Fair Trade”.

However, most importantly this track was first used in season 4’s premiere episode “Princess Twilight Sparkle” in the track “It Doesn’t Feel Right”.  When this motif is used in that episode, it is when the Mane 6 are leaving Twilight in Canterlot while they take care of stuff in Ponyville, leaving Twilight longing for her friends.  This is quite the callback musically here, where in this scene Twilight is concerned about reconnecting with old friends which she forgot about a while back.  I love the little musical connections William Anderson and Kelly Davidson are able to make, even so far apart, whether it’s intentional or not!
