EDIT: Someone made a pmv of it!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNd9LIbHL2g EDIT: Sooo I've had some people asking for an A Cappella version of this song to do remixes and the like, so here it is! The editing isn't as good because it's the raw vocals, and there's a bit of reverb I had originally added, but GO NUTS :D I wanna see what you all can do: https://soundcloud.com/prism-ripple/true-rarity-a-cappella-faux EQD: http://www.equestriadaily.com/2013/09/spotlight-music-true-rarity-dying.html#more Oh gosh! Been a while since I've had one of those~~ Spotlight too ;3; Thank you all! -------------------------------------------------------------- DOWNLOAD: https://pony.fm/t1433 (It's Recommended that you watch in HD) I know it's been a while since I've done an actual parody, but after someone suggested that they wanted to hear "Clarity" from me, my mind began turning. After literal months attempting to think of something appropriate, I decided to try and work at the parody again (after some nudging from a few friends ;D) So here we have, "True Rarity", a piece dedicated to the sometimes fine line that exists between having friends who love you for your talent or love you for you. I feel like Rarity would have one of the biggest problems with this, considering she makes dresses, works of art, and her generosity can get the better of her. I've delt with this in my life as well, having friends who ask me to do this, draw that, sing this--whatever it is--and it's hard to refuse. The emotion and meaning behind this song is that Rarity is going through these same uncertain emotions. Do the others truly care for her? Is she really so special that if she wasn't talented, they'd remain friends? Of course this is all hypothetical and it's obvious the rest of the mane 6 love her, but it seemed to work well with the song. It also only worked well with the piano version and NOT the heavy electronia version. Not that I don't like that one, but it just didn't fit for the emotion in the song. ANYWAY, I hope you all enjoy!

Work hard just to hide my pain, it is worth all it in time Head strong, my emotions clash, I can't bring this to an end My heart cries as it breaks like glass, and I fall for it again 'Cause you're all pieces of me I wish I didn't need Asking relentlessly, I still fight and I don't know why If your love is never free, why do you still care for me? If your love's temporary, why am I a Rarity? You walk through a grand parade and refuse to call us friends I cut deep through the ground and make something else for you to send You don't speak as I try to leave, what have you all got to lose? But you call for my company, and I crawl right back to you 'Cause you're all pieces of me I wish I didn't need Wanting relentlessly, still fight and I don't know why If your love is never free, why do you still care for me? If your love's temporary, how am I a Rarity? If your love is never free, why do you still care for me? If your love's temporary, am I a true Rarity? ----------------------- Love you alll~~
