I'm super sorry that I'm only getting to listening to this now & regardless of that I don't think the time of listening will detract from the unforgettable experience that will be brought upon, the endless nights of work that was put into this, the many phases that the track went through, I know that it'll blow my mind no matter what time of day I listen to it. Be it the day off or some time later, because you truly have a way with music. You've crafted your own style over time, you've improved so much over your time, your muse & motivation has driven you forward to only continue making amazing tracks of the sort. You really have that style & articulation in your music that is important, that tells a story & that drives the emotion home & back. You are a true addition to the fandom by what you achieve & your ability to create such orchestral works as such. I love that you ensure for all of your songs to be thought through & to emphasis the emotion or the power or the energy that you want to bestow & embody upon it. Heh, so I think that's enough for all the mushy talk & it's time to get right into the song
Honestly man, this is the best description I couldve ever read; it touched my heart and even if this were the only comment I'd gotten on the entire song, I'd feel it was worth it. This is one of those comments you dont just pass by, you screenshot it. You bookmark it. You set it to open every time you log into your computer, because it's a reminder of how the music you make can influence the minds and hearts of others. To hear your heartfelt expressions like this gives me so much drive to keep going, it negates any nagging doubt in my mind for the future, and honestly screams way louder than any self-negative thought my heart likes to throw at me sometimes. Thanks so much for this Aphix, and honestly the fact that you take time out of your day to encourage people like this shows how awesome of a person you are. I always look forward to your comments but man this one struck a chord (pun intended) with me more than any other, thank you so much from the bottom of my heart
that description is absolutely beautiful and leaves absolutely no questions... amazing ^-^. I listened to this lots of times since august 1st, and honestly? i can't get enough of it. This is one of those songs that you just cant get rid of. it sticks and wont let you go, which is why i absolutely adore it. everything in this is done right, and, as you mentioned in your comment, Aurelleahs way of making music adds to that and makes it a truly beautiful experience.
Every time I hear the bit where it goes "Enjoy your precious sunlight, 'cause now it's time to dream, the night will last forever, in your nightmares I'll hear your screams!" I *shiver*. The way it's presented is unorthodox, I think, in the sense that the music is quite tame up until "scream," and I can just feel the insane hatred that Nightmare Moon had towards her sister.
A shame that instead of that hatred being resolved and addressed, Luna was just forcibly purified and that was it. The actual problems that led NMM to happen wasn't properly resolved..
“how can you pretend to know the pain i felt, spending everyday in the dark, living in the shadows cast by my ever brighter solar counterpart? spending every night alone, excluded from any praise, for the work that i’ve done, and the efforts that i made.” i definitely felt that (dealing with depression and anxiety which really speaks to me)
Th-this was made............by a FAN? That goes to show what an amazing, talented, and over all incredible group of people the brony community is. I have been waiting patiently for the full song to come out just by listening to the little preview we got a week ago. I am without words. The pure talent that these people have deserves more attention. You should be composing music for big movies a TV shows! This is a true work of art. I am never disappointed with these songs. I don't care how long it takes to perfect these, this is just gorgeous! Bravo!! ❤👌
This song was released days before my grandmother passed. I listened to it the day before she passed. Whenever i listen to this it makes me cry. It reminds me of her. She would've loved this. I listen to this so i wont forget her. thank you so much for making this. never before has a song brought joy, sadness, and tears at the same time. thank you
You set out to tell a story. And you succeeded. Beautifully. Like a ship woven out of sound, lovingly crafted by its maker to carry the listener into the waves of pain and loss. The strings whipped like sails and the percussion rose like a deck, while the lyrics cried a tempest. I was swept up in this vehicle of emotion and brought to a place where I did not hear a story, but lived it. If that is not magic, I don't know what is.
@@Luuv_Jesh Of course! Just been busy with IRL stuff and work; dealing with some (non-serious) health concerns and fighting my mental health; I've got several works in progress I hope to finish at some point, It's just a matter of getting em done c:
@@Aurelleah Ah, I see. May God bless (and heal) you and your work! I’m not as deep into the fandom as years ago, but a lot of your works, particularly of the Royal Sisters, are some of the best I’ve ever heard from this fandom!
I think the best part is the swelling of music and the vocals at the lyrics "...Night will last forever, and in your nightmare I'll hear you scream." It's a great piece and I hope you'll do more songs with vocals. The only complaint I can give is that it feels short. I know it's 5 and a half mins long but it flies by. Like eating a tasty cupcake and realizing there are no more left.
Omg I luv this so much! I absolutely love the way you capture the struggle within Luna, her own war with not just her jealousy - that her sister was ever the brilliant one - but also with the hurt she felt at her sister's dismissal of her contributions in favour of other things she thought was more important. I adore the way you capture Tia's feelings, her silent plea for forgiveness from her sister for her errors. It all starts off with a deceivingly hopeful tune - in truth the lyrics convey Tia's despair and sadness for the need to fight her own sister, and also an unspoken plea to Luna to STOP. It then turns to Luna's swift spiral down to depression, weighed down by her insecurities, her loneliness, her numb anger at her sister for empty promises. That numb anger is bubbling and boiling under the surface, just waiting for the last straw to explode. And sure enough, the abrupt change of tone in the next part signifies her spiral downwards from some sort of despair to anger and madness. The subtle shift in the visual effects was another hint to Luna's transformation to Nightmare Moon, and Tia's plea only fuels her anger even more. There is no need to explain the confrontation between the sisters in the orchestral part, for the chords speak for themselves. The last part was hopeful but weighed with Tia's sorrow, and she starts to repent on her mistakes. I dunno, but that's my interpretation lol. I love how well every chord in this piece flows together (not unlike how I love the poignance and hope in Midnight Lament) and I really, really want to hug you right now for making this wonderful piece!
Aurelleah Aurelleah oh yes! I love how subtle those effects were! It also reminds me somewhat of Tia's shift in hair colour from pink to multicoloured (as portrayed in WarpOut's animation for Lullaby for a Princess) - for no other reason other than I love the reasoning behind it (I had fancied that her hair colour changed because she had taken on her sister's duties as well as her own, and also because it signifies the loss of her naïveté - her experience had matured her.) Oh well. Blame my over imaginative mind haha. I was always fascinated by Luna and Tia, and I like to wonder about the additional reasons that drove Luna to madness - just for fun. (For me, it will never be as simple as what they tell you lol.) Bleh. I'm blabbing on again. I think I'll just stop 😆
It is just such a beautiful song. It's one of those songs that gets into your head no matter how you feel about it. All your songs are like that, well, at least for me. You're just such an inspiration. Your music is breathtaking in every way. Please continue to make more inspiring songs!
Listening to this reminds me how beautiful is the fandom and the fact that it can reach this deepness and put a lot of love for the show in its works. This is really beautiful! ♥
I woke up this morning thinking that i was going to search youtube for a good song to write my story to. Opened up my app and this was on my top recommended. I listened to it, expecting a great song that would have feels, but instead what i found was... was...... a beautiful song with no words to describe it and so many feels that you cant even count. A goal to tell a story, and you overacheived this goal. Spectacular doesnt even begin to desceibe this amazing piece you have here. My new favorite song and the most magical i have ever come across. Thank you for creating this song. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I don't even know what to say to be completely honest. Everything just... works so well together in my opinion (Though I might be biased cause I absolutely adore most of the stuff you do)! It brings out the emotions of the situation so well. it does it even better than Midnight Lament did, and i thought that did it amazingly well x3! I don't know how much it exactly cost to make this, and frankly, I don't have to know. This is a masterpiece, and you deserve every little thing you get for it!
Well, you were right about it being special ^-^! I really hope that more people will find this and appreciate it, cause this deserves to be known, just like Lullaby for a Princess ;D! Edit: Just a quick side question. I know its under moderation for Spotify right now, but i wondered if you could give a rough estimate? that way i dont have to camp your Spotify site 10 times a day xD.
Amazing! Epic! Astounding! Breathtaking! Intense! I'm running out of words to describe it so I'll write a paragraph instead: So, the beginning of the song felt uplifting and hopeful as the lyrics were demonstrating, but then suddenly jumps to something a little more sinister. You could feel the anger from Luna, but over that, you can feel the confusion and buildup of emotion. Then the silence totally changed the tone yet again. Each transition is so smooth. It's kinda crazy. The desperation is so clear on their voices. then the slow build up to another EPIC part of the song that had me tensing up. Then the end of the song was just like the beginning, a feeling of accomplishment, but underlying melancholy. Brilliant work.
Curse the YT playlist shuffle system! How dare it let this song almost slip into obscurity in my mind. I can't believe I could possibly ever forget such a wonderful masterpiece. I don't listen to music too often on summer break, but now that I have homework, I will make a point to make sure this is the song I start it off on. Have you ever thought of doing movie/TV show sound tracks? I don't know how exactly that process goes, but you've put together quite the portfolio and following, and any production team would be lucky to have you. I can tell you that I would buy tickets to anything if your music was featured. Keep doing what you're doing.
hehe thanks, you need a lot of connections for that kinda thing :P But i'd love to for sure. Im happy you enjoyed, ive got plenty more where this came from! Here's a zip (may not include most recent songs as i havnt updated it in a little while www.mediafire.com/file/65byydw8ryymttp/Aurelleah_-_All_songs%2C_One_zip_file.zip
It's so easy to sense the incredible amount of hard work and passion that went into making this piece. Your talents with the composition as well as the two incredible voices playing the roles of the sisters creates such an intense somber atmosphere for the story it's telling I love it, and the talents of everybody involved really shine through
If someone says this is bad I'm gonna slap him with a pancake pan... This is freaking everything!!! Best song that this fandom has ever made! Keep up the good work!
Interestingly the original LFAP didnt get a massive amount of views until the animation came out, if I remember correctly. The animation also had a redone version of it with live instruments and was an overall improved composition; Not holding my breath it'll wind up as such but you never know I suppose haha
I still listen to this song from time to time... Few pieces can claim to have kept all the emotion and liveliness they had 3 years ago, but this one is very special to me. What a track! You're an awesome being Aurry, never forget this
This is one of my favorite songs. Period. It's just so good. I found this song 3-4 years ago and I still visit it every now and then. The vocals, the music, the composition, all shows that you really put passion into this song and that's the beauty of it. Thank you so much for making this and sharing it to the world man. Love your works!
This song is just so...amazingly perfect. The audio cues that give it like a battle effect towards the end, and in the beginning where it's the calm before the storm. The power in Luna's voice as her bitterness slowly corrupts her and in her final words, it leaves goosebumps. It's so amazing and beautiful and the effects just fit so beautifully well. I am utterly in love.
i have goosebumps listening to this...i may be a few years late, but im happy to report i didnt know how much i needed this until i listened to this piece of art. well done!
Yeah, a lot of that time was spent waiting on vocals, so I was tweaking and refining and learning while I waited. It definitely shows though, its miles better than the last version :P
Hoo, boy. It's a shame I didn't listen to this until now. Man, Aurelleah. You're something real special, alright. One of the best, if not THE best, orchestrals I've heard in this fandom.
i like to think there is an order of songs that goes like this, 'The moon rises', 'On Wings of Moonlight' and then 'lullaby for a princess'. 'the moon rises' being Luna starting to descend into madness . This song being celesta finding out about Luna trying to convince her to come back with her then fighting and feeling sorry for treating her wrong and then "lullaby for a princess" being celestia reflecting on what led Luna to becoming nightmare moon and then becoming filled with regret over her mistakes.
Aurelleah, this song is so amazing, it should be in a movie for real. This song is so beautiful. You deserve all the money in the world and more. You deserve to live a care free happy music-making life. Please don't ever stop making beautiful songs.
This is officially my ALL TIME favourite song. I literally JUST FINISHED re-listening to 'Midnight Lament', and 'Lullaby for a Princess'. I'm definitely going to replay this song a few more times, and enjoy it.
I've never herd such a outstanding powerful voice, your voice, it makes my heart so glad I've found some one like you. How on earth have I had not found your music.
This is breathtaking... Thanks for being and composing the beauty from the hearth... You've done so much for me and for many more... in more than pne way... thank you for every sound... every moment...
I listen daily to the Ponies@Dawn albums, i bought them all, and i always loved this song. However, english is not my native language, but i can speak it and understand it very well, however, for a non english speaker, some songs (like this one) are extremely hard to understand, so until now i just enjoyed the tune and part of the words i could understand without looking at the lyric. Today i was concentrated and started understanding much more about this song, so i came here to enjoy and read the full lyric while listening. Man, i can't believe i listened to this song for years like a random tune from spotify you listen to when there's nothing else to do, i'm so sorry. Right now i literally have a couple of tears running down my face, it was just beautiful. I feel the duty to do the same with all the other songs you made, and all with all the songs from the Ponies@Dawn album. I have a playlist of songs named "God tier", in that playlist there are all the songs that are so beautiful i almost never listen to them, because they are so special they deserve full concentration and enjoyment, so beautiful they are far above the music that goes in my favouries playlist, which i listen to when studying or working. This song is going straight in the God tier playlist. I may listen to it rarely now, but whenever i will do it, it will be an amazing experience
I've listen to this song practically a million times and I still get chills!! This song is amazing! Definitely deserves more likes than it currently has
Dear aurelliah, I was so touched by the song and how it told the tragic story of luna celestia. I deeply want to animate this but I'm not really advanced at doing so. I just wanted to say thank you for posting such beatiful musical Art und with it hitting me deep in the feels. -Chanty
You know this song is very very special to me like.... I can't even stop singing and stop hearing this song and you did this for an year but your time came and answered so...this is so much like a wonderful song to everbody.
This is why the .wav file, high bitrates, and overall high grade audio equipment were created. For this masterpiece, that brought me the most shivers while listening to it. More than 20. I bow before your creation, and you, creator. This will be put on a dedicated Pendrive, and put into an alleywall, so anyone can listen to it. Aurellah, you sure know what you are doing. Keep doing it, because there is no one like you.
GOODNESS GRACIOUS I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO THIS SONG. The story of the two sisters is such a beautiful tragedy that I adore, and anything that can portray the intensity and pain of that tragedy is 👌GOOD 👌 FRICKEN 👌 STUFF IN MY BOOK The lyrics are really well done! Luna's fall into despair and anger really hit me in this song, especially when the song peaks during their argument. That is honestly my favorite part, and the way the music builds to "And in your nightmares I'll hear your screams" is sosososo good, especially the sound effect at that part UUGHH IT'S TOO GOOD. It paints SUCH a vivid scene in my mind. Overall, wonderful orchestral! Keep doing what you're doing!!
This song came out when I was going through one of the toughest times of my life.. I listened to it a lot. Looking back on it a year later is certainly interesting..
I am going to get very deep for a second. First, this is amazing. And second, there have been times where I do see hatred for the fan base of MLP, but those people don't see how big this community really is. And when I was looking through these comments I realized how much your music brings people from our community together. And I just want those who are being ridiculed for being a brony or pegasister, to know that you are not alone and that we have your back. No pony left behind.
I was up when bandcamp notified this was up, around 1AM and I never clicked so fast before, I Slept real good, cause the beauty and Majesty practically Lulled me to Sleep. Thank for for another wonderful and beautiful piece!
I am glad that my monthly donation could help you produce such wonderful music like this. Thank you for this wonderful contribution. The piano flows amazingly within those strings. What an epic build up, was well worth the time spent and hope to see MUCH more from you in the future. Gah the voices are perfect...in every way. Love ya man.
You know what thank you this song has helped me out to find my way out of my darkness. This song gave me hope that there is still good in the world so I just want to thank so very much for working so hard on this and thank you for helping see the light in the dark.
I keep listening to this song because... it's awesome, but you know what? I keep getting goosebumps... EVERY TIME! I'd put this right up with Lullaby for a Princess. Someone PLEASE write an opera about "Two Royal Sisters". There is plenty of material and talent. It would be a fitting tribute to the close of G4.
BEAUTIFUL!!! SIMPLY AMAZING!!! AURELLEAH, YOUR MUSIC IS BEAUTIFUL!!! CONTINUE DOING WHAT YOU DO!!! CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE AMAZING PEOPLE WHO WORKED ON IT!!!
Holy shit you're good, first three notes and words just threw a huge amount of emotion at me. Then the rest of the song, the way you composed this is just outstanding I can't even put it into words. The only problem is it deserves a whole lot more views, art like this needs to be heard!!!
CHILLS I don't know how I am only now getting the chance to listen to this, but I adore it. These lyrics are heavy. And the accompanying instruments??? Hits you right in the gut.
Okay, when I typed my last comment, I made it, probably to the middle of the video, and then stopped because I needed break from epicness. Now that I have heard this, my God, I can't either describe how I felt after hearing the sisters fight, or what love and admiration I had for the instrumental. And while this may seem like a long comment, I don't care if it is. The beautiful combination and blend of the percussion(I was a percussionist, and I think I heard a bit of snare, tom, and bass drum) and whatever else was there(sorry if I can't name the other instruments.to epic to listen, and I don't know them).And you would think that this would take three years to make, sing, and orchestrate, but no! You and your team are legit dragons and took this on, AND FREAKIN WON THE BATTLE IN ONLY A YEAR. So yes, take in the appreciation and praise you receive, and bask in the glory, pride, and the relaxing feeling that you just overcame a challenge many would find almost as hard to do as moving or climbing a mountain.
Holy shit...THIS is what music should be. Beautiful, emotional, and it tells a story. Absolutely amazing, I'm really sad I didn't find you sooner. If you happen to be going to bronyCon this weekend I wish you a great time.
You can really hear where all that work went. This is awesome stuff. I especially like Luna's voice, and I couldn't sing along without getting choked up so I put it on loop and scrubbed some G1s. Perfect.
I.. wow.. just.. wow.. this is so amazing. It's something epic and full of so many emotions that I'm just about in tears from it. This is a song I so hope becomes an animation. I can only imagine how much more amazing it could be if the right animators got behind it.
This song is so beautiful... It brings me to tears to listen to this... It perfectly captures the story of Celestia and Luna and puts it all into a beautiful song. I am listening to it for the 4th time now and it never ceases to amaze me how beautifully you have captured the love that Celestia felt and the rage that corrupted Luna that night. If anybody has anything negative to say about this song, they can go to Tartarus because they don't know anything about beautiful music.
"The assurance of harmony, but spoken without the slightest bit of love or truth." This stood out as not only very elegant writing but touches on a less focused on issue of there being more than just jealousy between the sisters, but emotional neglect at the expense of all the effort Luna puts into her service to the rest of the world, which is what she is bound to do for the rest of time. In the typical fashion people do, they hide these feelings away and they fester to make us lash out in different ways, such as her jealousy and hatred of everything Celestia has. I also love the vocals at around 2:30 with the voice pitch continuing to go higher, rather than ascend toward the end of each statement It keeps climing untill the end of the dialogue and is very unique. Nonetheless, the dialog is also rather touching to listen to with Celestia trying to salvage an already empty and used soul that has nothing left to give. I like the touch of the church bell giving things a rather foreboding feeling and even the light choral voicing in the background. Good stuff, just thought id speak up.
This is most amazing piece of work I have ever heard. The music is just... WOW and the singers - holy crap you know what you're talking about. I can literally feel the story, the two sisters, one wishing for attention while the other wishing to start over. The battle between two powers. The emotions they feel: hate, sorrow, pain, betrayal. Thank you so much for making this amazing arrangement. This has honestly made my day. :D

Bravo!
Now all we need is Duo Cartoonist to animate this.
Who's with me?
great idea make sure there's a battle scene... That would be amazing
Heh I *wish*

Yeah :D the shift in feeling adds a ton of contrast, and I'll agree with you!! I had so many shivers when i was writing that part
It's, "Damn, the feels!"
A shame that instead of that hatred being resolved and addressed, Luna was just forcibly purified and that was it. The actual problems that led NMM to happen wasn't properly resolved..

Can girls be in the Brony fandom?
@@jefftaraldson Yes! They are called Pegasisters!
I love hearing all the different depictions of Celestia and Luna. And this is definitely one of the best. Excellent work!
I agree! I was definitely going for a time here where they were both younger, adolescents (compared to midnight lament where theyre older)

And you succeeded. Beautifully.
Like a ship woven out of sound, lovingly crafted by its maker to carry the listener into the waves of pain and loss.

I was swept up in this vehicle of emotion and brought to a place where I did not hear a story, but lived it.
If that is not magic, I don't know what is.
That is very well said ^-^
Woah, couldn't have said it better in an eternity.
Thanks a lot for this

I got serious serious chills while listening. You really build a moment there ! This is something !
Im so happy to hear that
I'm happy to read that

Yeah
agree
Omg I luv this so much! I absolutely love the way you capture the struggle within Luna, her own war with not just her jealousy - that her sister was ever the brilliant one - but also with the hurt she felt at her sister's dismissal of her contributions in favour of other things she thought was more important. I adore the way you capture Tia's feelings, her silent plea for forgiveness from her sister for her errors.
It all starts off with a deceivingly hopeful tune - in truth the lyrics convey Tia's despair and sadness for the need to fight her own sister, and also an unspoken plea to Luna to STOP. It then turns to Luna's swift spiral down to depression, weighed down by her insecurities, her loneliness, her numb anger at her sister for empty promises. That numb anger is bubbling and boiling under the surface, just waiting for the last straw to explode. And sure enough, the abrupt change of tone in the next part signifies her spiral downwards from some sort of despair to anger and madness. The subtle shift in the visual effects was another hint to Luna's transformation to Nightmare Moon, and Tia's plea only fuels her anger even more. There is no need to explain the confrontation between the sisters in the orchestral part, for the chords speak for themselves. The last part was hopeful but weighed with Tia's sorrow, and she starts to repent on her mistakes.
I dunno, but that's my interpretation lol.
I love how well every chord in this piece flows together (not unlike how I love the poignance and hope in Midnight Lament) and I really, really want to hug you right now for making this wonderful piece!
Wow, this is so nice to read and said it better than I could've hoped for
Aurelleah Aurelleah oh yes! I love how subtle those effects were! It also reminds me somewhat of Tia's shift in hair colour from pink to multicoloured (as portrayed in WarpOut's animation for Lullaby for a Princess) - for no other reason other than I love the reasoning behind it (I had fancied that her hair colour changed because she had taken on her sister's duties as well as her own, and also because it signifies the loss of her naïveté - her experience had matured her.)
Oh well. Blame my over imaginative mind haha. I was always fascinated by Luna and Tia, and I like to wonder about the additional reasons that drove Luna to madness - just for fun. (For me, it will never be as simple as what they tell you lol.)
Bleh. I'm blabbing on again. I think I'll just stop 😆
Your orchestal songs are so beautiful and perfect to study during the quarantine
I'm so glad you enjoy them
you've made this tearless man cry. this song is so heart-felt and beautiful. thank you all
The hair on my neck stand on end, goosebumps on my legs and arms, a lump in my throat? Now this is what I call music!
This was incredibly beautiful. It's incredible how many epic songs have been inspired by the beginning of the series.
Cant believe all the incredible songs ive been missing out on all these years up until now. Kinda wish i got into the series before the show ended.
Hey better late than never!!
Someone so needs to do an animation. SOO amazing. I cant believe this was done by people!
It is just such a beautiful song. It's one of those songs that gets into your head no matter how you feel about it. All your songs are like that, well, at least for me. You're just such an inspiration. Your music is breathtaking in every way. Please continue to make more inspiring songs!
Listening to this reminds me how beautiful is the fandom and the fact that it can reach this deepness and put a lot of love for the show in its works.
This is really beautiful! ♥
Im so happy that this sing didnt get that "KiD cOnTeNt" thing that disables like all the video
I woke up this morning thinking that i was going to search youtube for a good song to write my story to. Opened up my app and this was on my top recommended. I listened to it, expecting a great song that would have feels, but instead what i found was... was...... a beautiful song with no words to describe it and so many feels that you cant even count. A goal to tell a story, and you overacheived this goal. Spectacular doesnt even begin to desceibe this amazing piece you have here. My new favorite song and the most magical i have ever come across. Thank you for creating this song. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for checking it out! I'm elated you enjoyed it!! I have a ton of inspirational orchestral too if you ever need more :D
I don't even know what to say to be completely honest. Everything just... works so well together in my opinion (Though I might be biased cause I absolutely adore most of the stuff you do)! It brings out the emotions of the situation so well. it does it even better than Midnight Lament did, and i thought that did it amazingly well x3! I don't know how much it exactly cost to make this, and frankly, I don't have to know. This is a masterpiece, and you deserve every little thing you get for it!
Hi there. I know for a fact you're not even done listening to this. XD
ooooh, I'm just getting started ;D
SHOOTY :3!
Thank you so much for this
Well, you were right about it being special ^-^! I really hope that more people will find this and appreciate it, cause this deserves to be known, just like Lullaby for a Princess ;D!
Edit: Just a quick side question. I know its under moderation for Spotify right now, but i wondered if you could give a rough estimate? that way i dont have to camp your Spotify site 10 times a day xD.
Legit aurelleah is one of the best things that ever happened to this fandom
Respect to the channel owner for responding to comments years later. This is an excellent song with smooth vocals.
Thank youuuuu
Amazing!
Epic!
Astounding!
Breathtaking!
Intense!
I'm running out of words to describe it so I'll write a paragraph instead:
So, the beginning of the song felt uplifting and hopeful as the lyrics were demonstrating, but then suddenly jumps to something a little more sinister. You could feel the anger from Luna, but over that, you can feel the confusion and buildup of emotion. Then the silence totally changed the tone yet again. Each transition is so smooth. It's kinda crazy. The desperation is so clear on their voices. then the slow build up to another EPIC part of the song that had me tensing up. Then the end of the song was just like the beginning, a feeling of accomplishment, but underlying melancholy.
Brilliant work.
This honestly describes it so incredibly well
Curse the YT playlist shuffle system! How dare it let this song almost slip into obscurity in my mind. I can't believe I could possibly ever forget such a wonderful masterpiece. I don't listen to music too often on summer break, but now that I have homework, I will make a point to make sure this is the song I start it off on.
Have you ever thought of doing movie/TV show sound tracks? I don't know how exactly that process goes, but you've put together quite the portfolio and following, and any production team would be lucky to have you. I can tell you that I would buy tickets to anything if your music was featured. Keep doing what you're doing.
hehe thanks, you need a lot of connections for that kinda thing :P But i'd love to for sure. Im happy you enjoyed, ive got plenty more where this came from! Here's a zip (may not include most recent songs as i havnt updated it in a little while www.mediafire.com/file/65byydw8ryymttp/Aurelleah_-_All_songs%2C_One_zip_file.zip
It's so easy to sense the incredible amount of hard work and passion that went into making this piece.
Your talents with the composition as well as the two incredible voices playing the roles of the sisters creates such an intense somber atmosphere for the story it's telling
I love it, and the talents of everybody involved really shine through
*tears up a little*
Thanks a lot
Hey, no need to thank me. You're the incredible one here
If someone says this is bad I'm gonna slap him with a pancake pan... This is freaking everything!!! Best song that this fandom has ever made! Keep up the good work!
This song deserves more views and likes honestly. Make this another Lullaby for a Princess.
Interestingly the original LFAP didnt get a massive amount of views until the animation came out, if I remember correctly. The animation also had a redone version of it with live instruments and was an overall improved composition; Not holding my breath it'll wind up as such but you never know I suppose haha
I still listen to this song from time to time... Few pieces can claim to have kept all the emotion and liveliness they had 3 years ago, but this one is very special to me. What a track! You're an awesome being Aurry, never forget this
Why is the sisters story so sad but beautiful at the same time, it hurts but in a good way.
I literally came back just to listen 🎶 to this Deep Song 🎵 Again 😊
This is one of my favorite songs. Period. It's just so good. I found this song 3-4 years ago and I still visit it every now and then. The vocals, the music, the composition, all shows that you really put passion into this song and that's the beauty of it. Thank you so much for making this and sharing it to the world man. Love your works!
Thank you so so so much for commenting this
@@Aurelleah It's alright! Hope you are doing well
i got chills... did anyone else get goosebumps?
3:28 Did anyone else notice that the sound wave things changed to rainbow? Soo cool😮
glad someone noticed c:
Jezemae Moyses you r right I’ve never noticed that till now
Also, I tend to throw small details like this into all my music / videos; the new video coming out Friday has a lot of these little tidbits :D
Relistening the song. The middle part is heart wrenching. Just masterfully executed!
This song is just so...amazingly perfect. The audio cues that give it like a battle effect towards the end, and in the beginning where it's the calm before the storm. The power in Luna's voice as her bitterness slowly corrupts her and in her final words, it leaves goosebumps. It's so amazing and beautiful and the effects just fit so beautifully well. I am utterly in love.
i have goosebumps listening to this...i may be a few years late, but im happy to report i didnt know how much i needed this until i listened to this piece of art. well done!
Thank you!!
All of my hair is standing!!! Wow the chills from this were insane!! Amazing work!!!!!!
Oooh, i got a ❤️!!!
This took over a year? Honestly, it's been worth, you made such an great job on this song.
Man, keep making awesome songs like this.
Yeah, a lot of that time was spent waiting on vocals, so I was tweaking and refining and learning while I waited. It definitely shows though, its miles better than the last version :P
This gave me literal chills the most amazing song every
Oh my Celestia, i have never gotten chills like this from anything which is saying a lot, because a lot of music gives me the chills!!!
Now... I'm rethinking about Celestia and Luna now... Because of this.
Hoo, boy.
It's a shame I didn't listen to this until now.
Man, Aurelleah. You're something real special, alright.
One of the best, if not THE best, orchestrals I've heard in this fandom.
Thank you, thank you. You'll be in my heart from now on, this song is just amazing.
i like to think there is an order of songs that goes like this, 'The moon rises', 'On Wings of Moonlight' and then 'lullaby for a princess'. 'the moon rises' being Luna starting to descend into madness . This song being celesta finding out about Luna trying to convince her to come back with her then fighting and feeling sorry for treating her wrong and then "lullaby for a princess" being celestia reflecting on what led Luna to becoming nightmare moon and then becoming filled with regret over her mistakes.
Aurelleah, this song is so amazing, it should be in a movie for real. This song is so beautiful. You deserve all the money in the world and more. You deserve to live a care free happy music-making life. Please don't ever stop making beautiful songs.
Chills. So many chills. An incredible masterpiece. This song... I have no words.
This is one of the most underrated things ever. Of all time.
This is officially my ALL TIME favourite song. I literally JUST FINISHED re-listening to 'Midnight Lament', and 'Lullaby for a Princess'. I'm definitely going to replay this song a few more times, and enjoy it.
I've never herd such a outstanding powerful voice, your voice, it makes my heart so glad I've found some one like you. How on earth have I had not found your music.
This is breathtaking... Thanks for being and composing the beauty from the hearth... You've done so much for me and for many more... in more than pne way... thank you for every sound... every moment...
You did a wonderful job at making this story truly beautiful.
There *NEEDS* to be a love button for this is absolutely incredible, amazing, astounding, and any other synonyms of epically grand.
Incitos Sol there is. It's inside you!
I listen daily to the Ponies@Dawn albums, i bought them all, and i always loved this song.
However, english is not my native language, but i can speak it and understand it very well, however, for a non english speaker, some songs (like this one) are extremely hard to understand, so until now i just enjoyed the tune and part of the words i could understand without looking at the lyric.
Today i was concentrated and started understanding much more about this song, so i came here to enjoy and read the full lyric while listening.
Man, i can't believe i listened to this song for years like a random tune from spotify you listen to when there's nothing else to do, i'm so sorry. Right now i literally have a couple of tears running down my face, it was just beautiful. I feel the duty to do the same with all the other songs you made, and all with all the songs from the Ponies@Dawn album.
I have a playlist of songs named "God tier", in that playlist there are all the songs that are so beautiful i almost never listen to them, because they are so special they deserve full concentration and enjoyment, so beautiful they are far above the music that goes in my favouries playlist, which i listen to when studying or working.
This song is going straight in the God tier playlist. I may listen to it rarely now, but whenever i will do it, it will be an amazing experience
I've listen to this song practically a million times and I still get chills!! This song is amazing! Definitely deserves more likes than it currently has
Dear aurelliah,
I was so touched by the song and how it told the tragic story of luna celestia.
I deeply want to animate this but I'm not really advanced at doing so.
I just wanted to say thank you for posting such beatiful musical Art und with it hitting me deep in the feels.
-Chanty
this brought tears to my eyes, so beautiful, so deep and so much emotions
You know this song is very very special to me like.... I can't even stop singing and stop hearing this song and you did this for an year but your time came and answered so...this is so much like a wonderful song to everbody.
This is why the .wav file, high bitrates, and overall high grade audio equipment were created. For this masterpiece, that brought me the most shivers while listening to it. More than 20. I bow before your creation, and you, creator. This will be put on a dedicated Pendrive, and put into an alleywall, so anyone can listen to it.
Aurellah, you sure know what you are doing. Keep doing it, because there is no one like you.
I'm speechless, there are really no words to describe how amazingly gorgeous and moving this is! I love it!
GOODNESS GRACIOUS I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO THIS SONG. The story of the two sisters is such a beautiful tragedy that I adore, and anything that can portray the intensity and pain of that tragedy is 👌GOOD 👌 FRICKEN 👌 STUFF IN MY BOOK
The lyrics are really well done! Luna's fall into despair and anger really hit me in this song, especially when the song peaks during their argument. That is honestly my favorite part, and the way the music builds to "And in your nightmares I'll hear your screams" is sosososo good, especially the sound effect at that part UUGHH IT'S TOO GOOD. It paints SUCH a vivid scene in my mind.
Overall, wonderful orchestral! Keep doing what you're doing!!
Thanks Mia :) Im glad you noticed that part! :D
This is so amazing I can't even describe it.
INTENSE!
Lyrics to orchestration to visuals. It's just deep, heavy and awesome.
This song came out when I was going through one of the toughest times of my life.. I listened to it a lot. Looking back on it a year later is certainly interesting..
This was flat out amazing and beautiful. Thank y'all for putting this masterpiece together.
I'm not crying!!
There are onion cutting ninjas in my room....
This Song is absolutely fantastic and completely amazing
Thanks storm :>
I am going to get very deep for a second. First, this is amazing. And second, there have been times where I do see hatred for the fan base of MLP, but those people don't see how big this community really is. And when I was looking through these comments I realized how much your music brings people from our community together. And I just want those who are being ridiculed for being a brony or pegasister, to know that you are not alone and that we have your back. No pony left behind.
Wow. Just wow...words simply cannot describe how absolutely amazing this is.
Excellently done, Aurelleah, you are truly a master composer
Thank you so much
I was up when bandcamp notified this was up, around 1AM and I never clicked so fast before, I Slept real good, cause the beauty and Majesty practically Lulled me to Sleep. Thank for for another wonderful and beautiful piece!
Thats so awesome to hear :D
Quite easily one of the best tracks I've ever heard of any genre. Thank you for this masterpiece, Aurelleah.
I am glad that my monthly donation could help you produce such wonderful music like this. Thank you for this wonderful contribution. The piano flows amazingly within those strings. What an epic build up, was well worth the time spent and hope to see MUCH more from you in the future. Gah the voices are perfect...in every way. Love ya man.
You know what thank you this song has helped me out to find my way out of my darkness. This song gave me hope that there is still good in the world so I just want to thank so very much for working so hard on this and thank you for helping see the light in the dark.
This song is too beautiful for words, I can't help but feel for Luna, the show seriously needs more Luna in it.
I keep listening to this song because... it's awesome, but you know what? I keep getting goosebumps... EVERY TIME! I'd put this right up with Lullaby for a Princess. Someone PLEASE write an opera about "Two Royal Sisters". There is plenty of material and talent. It would be a fitting tribute to the close of G4.
I'm telling you, goosebumps... every. single. time.
Still true.
Eayuppp, still true...
Goosebumps... always with the goosebumps... +1
Yup, still there....
this song gave me goosebumps as well as sending chills down my spine I LOVE IT how have I never heard it before?
BEAUTIFUL!!! SIMPLY AMAZING!!! AURELLEAH, YOUR MUSIC IS BEAUTIFUL!!! CONTINUE DOING WHAT YOU DO!!! CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE AMAZING PEOPLE WHO WORKED ON IT!!!
Holy shit you're good, first three notes and words just threw a huge amount of emotion at me. Then the rest of the song, the way you composed this is just outstanding I can't even put it into words. The only problem is it deserves a whole lot more views, art like this needs to be heard!!!
CHILLS
I don't know how I am only now getting the chance to listen to this, but I adore it.
These lyrics are heavy. And the accompanying instruments???
Hits you right in the gut.
This needs to be an animation! It's too beautiful to not be made into visual art.
Just discovered the channel today. I am so glad that I found it because this song is probably in my favorite top 3 songs you made.
Jake Kosikowski Kooper Doesn't like you.... But, he does hate you.
very wonderful
Thanks fam :)
This song is so beautiful, I felt chills own my spine while listening to it! I loved it!
Okay, when I typed my last comment, I made it, probably to the middle of the video, and then stopped because I needed break from epicness. Now that I have heard this, my God, I can't either describe how I felt after hearing the sisters fight, or what love and admiration I had for the instrumental. And while this may seem like a long comment, I don't care if it is. The beautiful combination and blend of the percussion(I was a percussionist, and I think I heard a bit of snare, tom, and bass drum) and whatever else was there(sorry if I can't name the other instruments.to epic to listen, and I don't know them).And you would think that this would take three years to make, sing, and orchestrate, but no! You and your team are legit dragons and took this on, AND FREAKIN WON THE BATTLE IN ONLY A YEAR. So yes, take in the appreciation and praise you receive, and bask in the glory, pride, and the relaxing feeling that you just overcame a challenge many would find almost as hard to do as moving or climbing a mountain.
This is exceptionally well done. I wish there was more fandom music like this.
Thanks, dont forget to share it around!! Gotta get the good stuff heard amirite? :P
Holy shit...THIS is what music should be. Beautiful, emotional, and it tells a story. Absolutely amazing, I'm really sad I didn't find you sooner. If you happen to be going to bronyCon this weekend I wish you a great time.
You can really hear where all that work went. This is awesome stuff. I especially like Luna's voice, and I couldn't sing along without getting choked up so I put it on loop and scrubbed some G1s. Perfect.
I.. wow.. just.. wow.. this is so amazing. It's something epic and full of so many emotions that I'm just about in tears from it. This is a song I so hope becomes an animation. I can only imagine how much more amazing it could be if the right animators got behind it.
A truely amazing work of art!! Both visually and musically!! Bravo!!!!
What is with this feature where you can only like it ONE TIME? This is ridiculous! I should be able to show how absolutely amazing this is!
Holy crap, that was absolutely amazing...
This is soooo going into my Epic Music playlist
It sounds like something out of Kingdom hearts. Trust me, it's a compliment.
It's been 3 years....this song still the best
Omg it gave me chills just to listen to it, tbh i get chills with a lot of your songs, BECAUSE THEIR SO GOOD AHH!
Just came back to see why I loved MLP so much ❤️
The stories are such good stories to tell
This song is so beautiful... It brings me to tears to listen to this... It perfectly captures the story of Celestia and Luna and puts it all into a beautiful song. I am listening to it for the 4th time now and it never ceases to amaze me how beautifully you have captured the love that Celestia felt and the rage that corrupted Luna that night. If anybody has anything negative to say about this song, they can go to Tartarus because they don't know anything about beautiful music.
"The assurance of harmony, but spoken without the slightest bit of love or truth." This stood out as not only very elegant writing but touches on a less focused on issue of there being more than just jealousy between the sisters, but emotional neglect at the expense of all the effort Luna puts into her service to the rest of the world, which is what she is bound to do for the rest of time. In the typical fashion people do, they hide these feelings away and they fester to make us lash out in different ways, such as her jealousy and hatred of everything Celestia has.
I also love the vocals at around 2:30 with the voice pitch continuing to go higher, rather than ascend toward the end of each statement It keeps climing untill the end of the dialogue and is very unique. Nonetheless, the dialog is also rather touching to listen to with Celestia trying to salvage an already empty and used soul that has nothing left to give.
I like the touch of the church bell giving things a rather foreboding feeling and even the light choral voicing in the background. Good stuff, just thought id speak up.
Thanks a lot for that comment ^^ I'm glad you enjoyed it and took the time for that write up!
Sucks how none of that felt like it was properly resolved either.
Just Luna forcibly purified by the Elements and that was just it.
This is most amazing piece of work I have ever heard.
The music is just... WOW and the singers - holy crap you know what you're talking about.
I can literally feel the story, the two sisters, one wishing for attention while the other wishing to start over. The battle between two powers. The emotions they feel: hate, sorrow, pain, betrayal.
Thank you so much for making this amazing arrangement. This has honestly made my day. :D
By the way, could you maybe upload this on iTunes?
+Lulu Moon I'm happy to hear it
+Aurelleah :P I mean, UA-cam mobile app doesn't let me edit the comment to correct that smiley
Yeah I've got it submitted it's just waiting on moderation right now
