Once again, an amazing thumbnail piece by our friend over at PhysicallyPossible!
physicallypossible.dev...

It had to be done eventually. :/

Much much gratitude to our featured soloist this time around: TheLTrain9000!!! He was such an amazing person to work with and pumped out professional solos faster than I could even comprehend! Much Kudos, much gratitude, much much much love! I'm sure that you've all heard him at one point or another, but in case you haven't, he's over at: www.youtube.com/user/T...

So, here's my cover of Smile, Smile, Smile, , arr. by myself. Another bandwagon to jump onto, but this time I have a good reason. I got my hands on a good number of big band samples, and I wanted to learn to manipulate them within my DAW of choice. So, instead of writing a whole new song and possibly overloading myself with all sorts of changes, I decided to just go ahead and make my eventual FiM Cover Song and learn to use the samples all at the same time! Productivity!

This was a lot of fun, what with the learning of wav sampling/manipulation, LTrain's solos, and personal leaps and bounds occurring here at home, I almost feel like in my efforts to transform the song into a whole new experience, it transformed me as well! I'm glad I worked on this project, or I feel that might be halfway to Austin to join some garage band and live in my car.

Lyrics:

My name is Pinkie Pie,
And I am here to say:
I'm gonna make you smile and I will brighten up your day!

It doesn't matter now,
If you are sad or blue;
'Cause cheering up my friends is just what Pinkie's here to do

'Cause I love to make you smile, smile, smile;
Yes I do.
It fills my heart with sunshine all the while;
Yes it does.
'Cause all I really need's a smile, smile, smile,
From these happy friends of mine!

I like to see you grin,
I love to see you beam.
The corners of your mouth turned up is always Pinkie's dream!

But if you're kind of worried,
And your face has made a frown;
I'll work real hard and do my best to turn that sad frown upside down

'Cause I love to make you grin, grin, grin;
Yes I do.
Bust it out from ear to ear, let it begin!
Just give me a joyful grin, grin, grin;
And you fill me with good cheer!

It's true some days are dark and lonely;
And maybe you feel sad, <D'oh!]
But Pinkie will be there to show you that it isn't that bad.
There's one thing that makes me happy, and makes my whole life worthwhile:
And that's when I talk to my friends and get them to smile!

Mr. LTrain, ladies and gentleman!

A-one two three!~
'Cause I love to see you beam, beam, beam,
Yes I do.
Tell me what more can I say to make you see,
That I do.
It makes me happy when you beam, beam, beam,
Yes it always makes my day!
