~Hush Now Quiet Now it's time to lay your sleepyhead, hush now quiet now it's time to go to bed~

I know a few of you have been waiting for this one, so here it is ^_^ Some of you have probably heard this song on the Elements of Harmony podcast a few weeks back when I premiered it, but what you probably didn't know, is that this song actually has a pretty funny story behind it X3

So, about a year ago, I was searching my name on Google just to see what would come up (I'm sure you all know that game ;D). At the time I only had a couple songs out, and really hadn't done much under the name "FritzyBeat" anywhere, so I wasn't expecting to find much. The LAST thing I expected to come across was a "brony fandom knowledge test" that had my name in in O3O

The question was "Which of these musicians are known for collaborating with each other" or something similar to that, and of course the correct answer was I THINK "BlackGryph0n & Baasik", but one of the options to my surprise, was "FritzyBeat & PhonyBrony". Right then and there, I decided that somehow I had to make that knowledge quiz obsolete XD *shot*

Unfortunately I didn't know Phony at the time, though he was a big inspiration from the start, and I figured him being a more popular guy, I would have no chance of collabing with him. So almost a year later, I instead did what I've always done: take an instrumental song, and write some lyrics to it ;D

Eventually Chi-Chi got involved, since I had recently met her when I was writing it, and Exiark mixed the whole thing and added some cool extra stuff too X3 To top it all off, just about a month ago while working on this, I got a random message from PhonyBrony just thanking me for my comments I'd make on his non-pony music channel, just out of the blue, which I sincerely thank him for, and question whether or not he is a psychic~ XD

Anyway, this song made me happy, so I hope you like it too. ^_^

Lyrics:

Another day, has passed you by
The tired sun sets like your tired eyes
The play and fun, is all but done
So to the night your thoughts and dreams will run

And in the dark, may you find peace
As you rest so sound asleep
And through the dark another light will rise
Just wait to see it with your own eyes

So hush now, and quiet now
I'll be there soon, so don't you worry
Rest your head, and don't you cry
I'll be there by your side, tonight

Time to rest your sleepyhead
It's time to go to bed

So hush now, and quiet now
I'll be there soon, so don't you worry
Rest your head, and don't you cry
I'll be there by your side, tonight

When Fluttershy sang the Hush Now Quiet Now lullaby, I couldn't help but think that maybe she had perhaps learned the song from her own mother when she was a filly, who would sing it to little Fluttershy every night to comfort her and help her fall asleep~ This song was my attempt at completing what I thought Fluttershy's mother might have once sung to her to whisk her off to dreamland...~

Enjoy!~
