A year or so ago, I showed this to one of my younger brothers. He has autism, and hardly ever talks or shows much emotion. After watching it, I'm almost positive he had a smile on his face...
These songs are one of the reasons this fandom is so special. And being part of it, regardless of the show itself is something special on its own to me. Something, I hope I will keep to the end of my days, even when this is all gone.
I have Epilepsy and I used to feel like an outcast, like I don't belong. When I found this song years ago it made me finally realise that I'm not alone. This song got me through a time in my life when I felt useless and unwanted. This song made me feel cheerful for once in a long time. This introduced me to the fandom and the show. Thanks to this song, the fandom, and the show for getting me through some tough times.
I'm different because I have autism and I'm proud of it, I have trouble explaining things, trouble with spelling, have a habit, etc. When I got through hard times in high school, Someone suggest me to the series and it really change me. I really thank for MLP: FIM to learn allot about friendship, deal with bully and bad things it happens in real life. And I'm so glad that I'm a pegisisters. :) Also, I can totally relate lot to Derpy because she very nice pony who try so hard from her mistake through her disability like I been through. (Like in "Slice of Life" Episode).
+Adamguy2003 same I am on the autism spectrum to I don't have trouble spelling and I am home school so I don't know your guy's pain but I get very childish at times and I struggle with social cues. I like MLP because I relate to pinkie pie and rainbow dash. It is super cool to see other people being proud of their autism. instead of seeing it as a weight to slow you down, you can use it to your advantage. For example I get really into projects and things that I enjoy so I helped out my local drama team with script writing for a play they were putting on.
I've been a victim of bullying because I'm different. Not physically, but mentally. I've told many people this when I go to a new school. It usually doesn't have a good effect.. I've been an outcast to society, and after a few years I thought of running away, I attempted to. But what made me turn back were the few friends I have who were different like me, a group of friends who stood beside me and backed me up even when I was bullied. A brony, an anime adict, a bisexual girl, a nerd, a rebel, and a tech junkie. We all stood together as one because we all were different, but yet the same as each other. When I discovered this song... I cried because it made see that it's okay to be different, it's okay to be who I am... And thanks to this song, I'm who I am. Everytime I'm bullied I play this song and I smile because it send me the message that I'm okay and I'll be who I want to be.... #GreatToBeDifferent
+Lyra's Little crew of oc's and fursonas i feel for you i have the same thing but then not mentally im bullied for fun i have tons of friends who comes up for me but my old school i had not many friends but alot of enemies they bullied me cus im weak and i cry alot cus i am a emotional kid and also bully me cus im muslim i tried to fight back but i end up with a bloody nose a black eye and wounds one day i started training to learn self defense and it worked i was anable to fight off the bullies even with a few of my best friends on my side my best friend dylano kicked a bully in the stomach really hard because the bully was threatining me and i wasn't anable to do anything cus he was way stronger than me i sweared alot even with cancer and im really sorry for saying that but i can't control myself when i get mad i fight everyone i can fight weak or strong big or tiny i managed to kick a kid with my head that he fell really hard on the window (he was standing there) the teachers tried to stop me but i resisted and attacked... kicking slapping i never wanted to give up and now im here.. today alot of friends there are still some bullies and kids that think they are cool and shit but my friends help me by punching them in the stomach i did that to someone that was bullying me but atleast life gets better i think i can finally accomplish alot of stuff and it feels great to be myself #GreatToBeDifferent
i cryed when i saw this comment its relatable to alot of people like i got bulled for liking mlp but my friends stand up for me and when saw this video i cried and after that i read this comment i cried more
+Lyra& Little crew of oc& and fursonas Stand strong my friend, often times its us (weird) ones that form the longest lasting and closest bonds of friendship because of being kindred spirits.Don't let the stupid haters slow you down, be you no matter what and remember it them that have the problem, not you. (spelling corrected)
i have a simular story.. bullied since age 4, i never leave my home unless i'm going to the library. i'm a computer whiz with no friends, but no one to help me... everyone is different...
+Lyra's Little crew of oc's and fursonas I've been bullied 'cause of my disease. I was born with it and had to wear diapers until I had one surgery. Specially I remember that someone threw a small glass pipe at me and a fragment went in my foot (I was wearing sandals). I cringe now as ones who bullied me at school are still my classmates and unlike back then, friends (one of them even jokes that he is my brother). But from elementary, most of my memories are from being bullied. Even worse, when I had a chance, I bullied someone. I felt superior to him, but I didn't like it.
There’s a reason the chorus of this is my senior quote. This fandom raised me, from 10 to now where I’m getting ready for the final Bronycon and college. I didn’t know what I was getting into nor did anyone around me or especially my parents lol. This is the biggest chapter of my life, my youth, and my younger upbringing. This fandom is everything to me, and with the show ending I’m.. sad of course, but I’ve got friends and a community still around me that I love. God know what the future holds for me, but this fandom, and this song, will be with me for as long as I live.
I am crying. Be exactly who you are,we all different but we all should love each other exactly who we are,no mater if you are a different color than someone else.We should love each other the same. -Olivia
To think, I first heard this song in the beginnings of my pony days. When I learned about this fandom, and this song, helped me so much. When my family was in rough times, when I was home and had my computer or iPad times, I would listen to this songs all the time without fail. And every now and then, when my anxiety in high school, hits, I remind myself why I keep moving and why I love this fandom. This song is the best example of staying yourself and not giving into societies standards. I never understood that until I moved across country. I felt much better afterwards. Thank you BDP for making this animation and Forest Rain for writing this song!
When I heard “These last few years flew by just like a blurb” all I could think about is the time I’ve been in the fandom and how fast that time has flew by. I never really gave it any thought until after the final episode and now I can’t help but think back to the 4-5 years I’ve enjoyed watching the show and seeing this fandom create so much art, animation, and music and how that will someday come to an end.
Y'all this song helped me deal with my undiagnosed depression in middle school. I'm an adult now, getting ready to go to college. I've come a long way through years of struggles and therapy but I'll never forget how this song made me feel.
First time i listened to this and watched it i cried, i have Asperger syndrome, and we didn't find out till i was 13. I always got in trouble for things i didn't understand, when i learnt it wasn't my fault, it hurt a whole lot more. This song always manges to help cheer me up when I've upset someone by saying something i think is ok, witch upsets me as well at them. Every time i listion to it it makes me smile. Thank you.
Ive been told it's like its on a scale, Autism is on one side, Asperger on another. Here's a sight i normally link to when people ask me on another sight. www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/bhcv2/bhcarticles.nsf/pages/Asperger%27s_syndrome
This song honestly made me cry. When I first saw this about last year, I cried, but not for the reason now. Now, I've been feeling depressed, and I was scared and emotional. Looking back at this.... It just makes me so happy. The Brony Community is not just a fandom of strange adults liking ponies and making clopping: Its bring something not all of us had at one time, and that is friendship. Just waking up and going on Equestria Daily in the morning (around 6) is something to wake up to. With bronies, just being friends. Just saying good morning, and how are you brought me to tears my first morning there, and I couldn't stop smiling. This show has brought many people joy, friends, and something to keep living for. Don't persecute us. Because we will keep standing tall. Don't be shaken, my little ponies. We know what is right, and they don't. We know that this world is dark and scary, but seeing the bright side of it keeps us smiling and going. ((AND JUST BECAUSE WE LIKE PONIES DOENT MEAN WE ARE PUSH OVERS I GARUNTEE THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THIS FANDOM WHO WILL FIGHT YOU.)) It doesn't matter who you are, or where you're from: If you show people kindness, honesty, generosity, loyalty, laughter and joy, THEN YOU ARE STRONGER THAN ANYONE ON THIS EARTH, AND YOU ARE PURELY MADE OF STARDUST AND LOVE. DO NOT LET ANYONE GET YOU DOWN, NON-BRONY AND ALL. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL, (UNLESS YOU TELL PEOPLE THEY ARENT BEAUTIFUL THEN YOU ARE A DOUCHE) AND YOU SHINE BRIGHTER THAN ANY STAR IN THE UNIVERSE. FELLOW BROTHERS AND SISTERS AND WEIRD-AUNTS OF EQUESTRIA: WE WILL BE STRONG. WE WILL LOVE. WE WILL SHOW KINDNESS TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER FELT KINDNESS BEFORE. Y O U A R E L O V E D. YOU ARE W O R T H I T. SO BE PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE, AND WHAT YOU STAND FOR. I LOVE YOU ALL, AND YOU HAVE BROUGHT JOY TO NOT ONLY ME BUT OTHERS AROUND THE W O R L D. YOU HAVE SAVED LIVES. YOU HAVE BEEN THERE AS AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE OF FRIENDSHIP AND LOVE, AND WE CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH. WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!
I honestly don't know what to say except I love you, and everyone else here. I've only just realised what an amazing community this is and it really is bringing me close to tears. Have a nice day and thank you sir or miss. :)
I don't know what to say. This made me cry. I love you and our fandom. This made me realize that I shouldn't be ashamed. I should fight for what I love. Thank you, you amazing, amazing person. Can we have a brohoof? /)
I've lost count of how many times this song has brought me out of dark and sad times in my life; it even managed to make me break down crying. A huge thank you to Forest Rain, Decibelle, and BronyDanceParty for your amazing work.
When I was younger, I used to love mlp to death, But as I grew older, I disliked it more until the fact that I hated it. A few years now, I've been bullied constantly. Now that I see this song, I've realized lots of Bronies/Pegasister's are Bullied for what they like. Feeling the fact that I can relate, I'm starting to become a Pegasister again.
i was getting bullied and I was on RUclips and found this song and I told the bully about this song and he stopped bulling me. He had no friends so I became his friend.
That is marvelous! As we've seen both on 'MLP: FIM' (Nightmare Moon, Discord, Sunset Shimmer, Diamond Tiara, etc.) and in real life (Your bully turned friend, and one of my own, a childhood nemesis of mine who I now see as a valued friend), even the cruelest of hearts can often be brought to the light with simple kindness and understanding.
i've been pretty good at hiding it, atleast i hope. i think one person knows. but if they're gonna bully you for it your gonna have to either reason and convince them, and if they don't want to hear the you shouldn't give a shit about what they say. if they are gonna physicly assault you for it howhever you break their noses. don't matter who it is. just a straight punch in the middle if the nose should do.
Just say, "Have you even seen the first episode?" If they still bully you just be super nice to them it'll make them stop for sure! I know it always works! I get bullied too so don't think your alone on the bullying! /)Pegasister hoof(\
It's amazing what one simple fandom can do... from creating friendships, to helping to create a "safe place" of sorts where everyone can express themselves creatively as individuals. and as for this music video, it teaches that everyone is unique in their own way, whether it be through their look, their personality, or even their own thoughts and opinions (and intelligence)
This song makes me cry every time and it reminds me like its meant to that it is great to be different cuz i am a mute and I have asperger syndrome and at school my friends don't play with me except for 1 really nice friend that understands
***** i believe starlight is faking it and is still evil, she only acted like she had become good when she realised her plan would fail so then she decided she would earn twilights trust and get on her good side, but she is still secretly evil.
***** You know, that would be a pretty bold move for the writers to do something like that and it'd be funny to see Twilight's reaction when Starlight pulls a 180
Coming back to this song years after first hearing it, it reminds me of my depression filled middle school days. And I’m pretty sure this song was one of the few things that made me able to see that hurting myself wasn’t the answer. The fandom might be dying but fuck does the music still hit the same spot in the heart.
I had a friend, named Delaney. I used to think MLP FiM was a kid's show. For toddlers. I was eight at the time I knew her. She was my sister, Chloë's, friend. They were both ten at the time. One day when we were at Delaney's house, she introduced us to generation four of MLP. Luna Eclipsed and Canterlot Wedding remain my favorite episodes. Because Delaney said, "But before I show you the first episode I gotta show you these two". Without Delaney, I would've NEVER been a Pegasister. I would've never started a channel. But most of all I wouldn't be here. There is so many things in my life that happened all because of MLP. But... Delaney moved. Because her parent's divorce. We have no idea where she is now. No way of contacting her. She was separated from her brother twin, who Chloë still knows. All I have to remember her by is a drawing and a stuffed animal. She did a drawing of my O.C, named Inkie. Who was supposed to be a relative of Pinkie Pie. She looked very similar, but also different. To this day Inkie is my main O.C and always will be. The stuffed animal, is something she put together with felt, thread, and hot glue. Sure it looks a little jacked up but I love it. I love it so much and I'd never give it away for anything. It's a stuffed animal of Nyx. Nyx remains my favorite fan-made MLP character. So thank you Delaney, because, now we're theming our apartment room MLP. ❤ BroHoofs to every Brony, Pegasister, or NonBinaryNySister! (\ ❤ /) (\ ❤ /) (\ ❤ /)
I refound this song and found the 10th anniversary version at the perfect time, struggling with my job, struggled with my physical health for a little bit, my mental health started declining rapidly because of the holidays approaching and the loss that I've experienced during the holidays and missing the cat I can't remember life without. These are just so beautiful
I find myself on this video so many times and I cry each and every time. I lived a depressing life and this fandom has brought me so much happiness in my life. I have started trying to help others fell the joy that I fell now. I believe this video is something great and Ill continue to come back to see it again and again. Thank you for making it and thank you for opening my heart.
This song is still touching peoples hearts to this day. Fun story actually- I didn't realize this was what made me accept myself when others couldn't. That's not to say I'm completely accepting of myself- I know my flaws and I can be awkward at times because of them, but I'm still proud to be who I am, flaws and all.
A few people at my school made fun of me and kept calling me a wierd... just for drawing mlp characters...but when I listen to this sing I feel better about myself. ^3^ THNX TOMB!
This video was my introduction to this fandom, and looking back on it after Gen4 ended, I think I might cry. This show and community means so much to me. I was 9 or 10 when I first saw this, and by then I didn't really have a mind of my own. I was just doing what everyone told me to do. I wish I took the message of this song to heart the first time I saw it because it really would have helped me in the long run. School was the only thing that mattered to me back then because everyone told me to do well in school, so I did. Eventually in 8th grade, that mindset finally ran it's course and I was freed after a year long, stress filled project. I wasn't happy in 8th grade nor in the following summer, but I think I kept this song and the community in the back of my head. I had to figure out who I really was. I eventually got back into the fandom (and more into music but that's a different story) and I started realizing who I was all along. I wanted to help people by making entertainment, and I wanted to be myself while I did it. This community has done so much for me, and none of it wouldn't have happened without this video. Thank you everypony for your dedication to this community. It's great to be different
@@toaster7239 Heyy, I'm new here too. What's in the past cannot be brought back, but let's be thankful that the Internet has helped to preserve many of these masterpieces. Even if G5 brings a new wave of fans, it won't be the same as this. This fandom half-died back in 2013 and now it's just.. twice as dead, I guess. We can only hope to move on to something brighter and better.
Brony, I am so glad you put this video on YT, it actually made me start to accept my life of being a pegasister when others make fun of me for having my favorite show a little kids show that's all about friendship and its importance. Stay awesome Brony, keep doing what you love.
This song helped me become who I am today, coming out as trans, and whom i wanted to be. Thanks to April, Forest Rain, Fiaura, and most of all CinderScript. if any of you find this, thank you from the bottom of my heart
@@ambervetruvio2753 hi Amber, I know Fiaura and I will pass on your thank you! Goddess knows she’s been one of the best people I have gotten to know over the last year and change!
This song isn't ever getting old. Like just imagine yourself in ten years listening to one of your old playlists, and suddenly this song comes on and you feel about twenty years younger. I was probably still a toddler when this came out, but I can just imagine a bunch of teenagers jamming to this in 2013
Okay, I love this song and all, but what's with everyone saying it's sad? It's about learning to love yourself, not despite your flaws, but WITH your flaws. There isn't anything sad about that. It's beautiful. It's not sad at all. You should be crying happy tears. Tears of joy. Because this is beautiful and amazing and not sad at all.
mindlessstriker or maybe it's sad that she was depressed in the beginning and learned how to accept herself. So to simplify, how she was in the beginning
Tempazle Sprit Ehh, I still don't think people should be directly focusing on the sad part of an otherwise happy song. It sort of devalues the good, positive message of the song. Though that's just my opinion I guess.
That's exactly what I did, I was so happy, I was crying. This song relates to me, feeling alone and not accept who I am or how I look. It can just be very to accepting myself to become a shining star. If Derpy was real, I know she would help.
I was thirteen when I had first heard this song my family had always treated me as if I was different and I thought for the longest time I was broken and didn’t deserve to exist. One dark and stormy night I was home alone and I’ve always been terrified of storms and heard this song I was bawling in my room realizing that I was gonna be ok for the first time in my life. I’m 18 now and am livin out on my own and feel at peace thanks to this song.
I think this song is amazing and exactly why Derpy is soooooo great and loved by the fandom so much , because she reminds people with physical or invisible disabilities (such as lazy eye or A.D.H.D) that being different didn't mean that you were strange or less able, but that your just a special star in a galaxy of stars who are all plane and the same.
Absolutely beautiful song. And trust me , i know all to well what its like to be treated like a pariah for being different, you really did a special thing here with this song, thank you.
I've just discovered this, and, honestly, it's exactly what I needed. Thank you to everyone who put their heart and soul into this beautiful video. And thank you to the My Little Pony fandom for being one of the only groups to accept me for who I am. I love you guys. I truly do.
Little Miss Sunshine don't let anyone get u down like they have to and I'm still looking for a Pegasus gf but they always say no so about 8 heart brokens
a friend showed me mlp several months ago, now i watch previews every week awaitening the next episode. im 23 years old, so why? because i love this positive influence on me. thats what i missed all the time, to enjoy the omnipresent happiness and carelessness.
I have an OC pony who was born into royalty, but wasn't born an alicorn, so she was named Oddity. She grew up knowing she was different, and never accepted she could be anything. She eventually became wrathful and tried to pact with Discord. They became close and eventually fell in love, and she learned that her special talent was being her happy, chaotic self. Discord was trapped in stone and her love for him earned her a title-the princess of chaos. She earned her cutiemark in adulthood- a capital O for the first letter of her own name. Then, her personality split and her idea of chaos became hurtful, so she was trapped in stone with Discord. The princess of chaos now stands in the castle garden, and most visitors think of her as nothing more than a creative decoration.
i have bullies who laugh and tease me everyday but after seeing this i now don't let bullies get me down cause i love who i am and i am sure others feel this way thank you bronydanceparty for making this video and inspiring people
I was bullied all the time, I felt very sad, they call me many names, when I looked at the mirror, I said to myself, your the most important person in the world ,this world is a test, I'm smart, beautiful, and nice, I'm KassidyFinley, and I'm not dumb or stupid, i'm myself. I hope you all feel that way too.
It's ok. You are very brave to let it out like I did. Look around the top of the section, we all have stories, you can hear mine. Would appreciate it. We all deal with hate, but we need to learn we're better then them and need to buck up.
It really is great to be different. For me, not just loving MLP: FiM, but other things as well. For instances, I love classical music and oldies. I also like old movies and wearing double breasted suits rather than the more common single breasted ones. I don't care if people think I'm peculiar. I'm proud of who I am! Very excellently animated PMV.
This video makes me who I am. I'm teased (I won't say bullied because it doesn't get that far.) for the stuff I do. This song reminds me to be who I am. People are stuck trying to fit in and hide what they really are. High School is a big place, a lot of people don't accept who you are. It takes a lot of courage to look and tell yourself that you can be who you are and show it. One person in the school tries to show me up all the time and tells me I'm bad at sports, it always doesn't end up him winning. He makes himself stupid. I would talk about the show and notice someone tell me that I do understand that this show is for girls. I give them a lecture saying just because a show is for someone other than me, doesn't mean I can't like and watch it. People need to understand that they're are people in the world that are different and need to accept them.
Goofy809 Im afraid to tell some people im a brony cause i dont want to get made fun of but i know i should cause its who i really am... I just wish people weren't so judgmental. *sigh*
This song helps me on just about every level you can think of. Every time i am depressed, angry, or just having an off day i sing this and i feel so much better. Thank you to the artist and BronyDanceParty for being there for me even if you didnt know!
Lyrics It was a dark day when I lost my faith I wasn't the pony I thought I'd be. And it seemed that no one could relate there was nothing left for me to see. So I, took a walk, to the edge of the town Thought of leaving it all behind. When I, saw a little letter fall right out of the sky As grey mare hovered way up high. Thought I was crazy when I saw her wave and then simply fly away. So I opened the letter and looked inside and what was written made my day. It said, Isn't it great to be different Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are. When you learn to start accepting yourself, you'll become a shining star. I turned around and I saw her at my door. That cute grey mare with the wild eyed stare. She said. I've heard you play and sing before, and I heard a sadness I could not bear. I just wanted to tell you that the hardest thing I faced. It wasn't the teasing or the pain. It was convincing myself I wasn't stupid, strange, or lame. And helping others do the same. These last few years flew by just like a blur, I'm now exactly where I should be. And I know I owe it all to her, that beautiful mare that believed in me. Isn't it great to be different Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are When you learn to start accepting yourself. You'll become a shining star. (isn't it wonderful) You'll become a shining star. (isn't it great) When you learn to love just who you are.
remember everyone is different in their very own special way and nothing can stop you and its ok to make mistakes and you learn from them. thank you for all the musical artist that worked on this.
Bronies and pegasisters, may I have your attention! Life can actually be a pleasant experience! I have seen far too many comments on here saying things like: "This song saved my life" and so forth. I want ya'll to be happy. Ask yourself some fundamental questions: 1. Do I possess a sense of self-worth? 2. Do I exercise my body as much as I "exercise" my mind? 3. Do I frequently complain about "good/bad" things that happen to others? 4. Have I obtained, or am I actively progressing toward self-sufficiency? 5. Do I spend time each day to positively introspect (meditation, scripture study/prayer if you're religious, etc.)? 6. Would my friends have a greater interest in lifting me up or pulling me down? 7. Do I instantiate the archetype of my favorite pony on whom I would like my significant other to be? 8. Am I only happy when watching MLP:FiM? 9. Have I been diagnosed with a mental disorder and am aware of the side-effects? 10. Do I allow other's bullying to pull me down, or do I ignore it when it is appropriate to ignore? 11. Can I rebut bullying in a positive manner? Disperse questions to be sure. I think there may a set of correct answers to this list. 7 might be tricky. I would highly recommend getting to the point where you can answer "yes" to 2. (Exercise can literally cure depression under many circumstances.) Whether you're religious or not, meditation in one form or another can lower blood pressure. Make sure that 8 is not the case. If it is, you might want to step away from the show for a little while. Be sure that you understand the full connotations of 9 if it is applicable. If you suspect 9 to be the case, you should consider receiving a formal diagnosis. Anyway, I think you guys know the drill. I'm certain there are other better questions, but these were the ones which came to my mind just now.
You are just one of those wanna-be people, huh? Trying to make people laugh at your stupid jokes. This really made my day. I have a problem with my legs, so I can't walk normally. If your gonna hate, I would just think about the people who are really like this. I bet you wouldn't say that if YOU were one of those people. That isn't nice at ALL. They put a lot o work into this.
Veronica Martinez I don't see how making that comment is offensive to anyone. maybe i'm just looking at it from my perspective and not anyone else's, but...
Veronica Martinez Excuse me? That was just the first thing that popped into my head when I saw that scene, so I decided to comment it, is there a problem there? Plus, the whole 'Oh my legs and I can't walk normally bit - I bet you wouldn't say that if you were one of those people.' Excuse. Me. I've been bullied almost my entire life, even still now - and unlike you who thinks that just because I decided to take light of the situation means I have nothing wrong with me - There is something wrong with my legs - That could have been disastrous in my later life if they didn't find out what it is - I've got to be very careful around that leg, as it can get infections very easily and I'm very prone disease called cellulitis which causes a lot of pain. Also - hating? Calm down. I was saying a scene from this reminded me of someone getting their letter to Hogwarts... How is that even offensive? People like Harry were having a terrible life before they got into Hogwarts, and that is also the situation here, she was having a terrible life, and the letter cheered her up. Stop being so childish that even a little comment makes you go into full rage mode.
I've gone through many a "try not to cry" challenge without shedding a tear, but this put me on the verge of tears. It's just so beautiful. The most majestic piece of work that I have ever seen. You deserve the most awesome of brohoofs. I'm literally at a lack of words for this amazing piece of pure bliss.

This is one of those videos that makes you proud to be in the fandom.
ya Ur right isn't it great to be different
Yup.
Caleb Rands I'm happy to be part of the famdom brony and furry
Your a furry? That's cool! I'm not a furry but I support them and watch their back.
Caleb Rands you watch my back I'll watch your back
A year or so ago, I showed this to one of my younger brothers. He has autism, and hardly ever talks or shows much emotion. After watching it, I'm almost positive he had a smile on his face...
That's so amazing!!
Crazy what this kinda stuff can do isn't it....
My two uncle and my aunt have severe autism to woah
I have autism so I know what it’s like to be different
That’s beautiful
Man 3 years later and I STILL love this song.
same!!
Same
SAME
ikr

It's 2020 and I'm literally crying over remembering this song... This song got me through some shit.
same it's been a really rough year and this song lifted me up
Mhm, same
Same...❤️
Same whenever I feel lost I always turn back to this and other songs from this fandom
same
Derpy always bring hope and laughter to those who need it the most. She truly embodies her virtue.
These songs are one of the reasons this fandom is so special. And being part of it, regardless of the show itself is something special on its own to me. Something, I hope I will keep to the end of my days, even when this is all gone.
It'll always be a part of who you are. Always. :)
Loganberrybunny Thx for the cheer, bud.
Isn't it great to be different?
Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you aaaaare?
When you learn to start accepting yourself
You'll become a shining staaaaaaaaaar
you'll become a shining star
isn't it great
when you to love just whoooooo youuuuuu aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaare
IT IS
Yes. Yes. It, Is.
I heardddd a sadnessss I could notttt bearrrr
I have Epilepsy and I used to feel like an outcast, like I don't belong. When I found this song years ago it made me finally realise that I'm not alone. This song got me through a time in my life when I felt useless and unwanted. This song made me feel cheerful for once in a long time. This introduced me to the fandom and the show. Thanks to this song, the fandom, and the show for getting me through some tough times.
I'm different because I have autism and I'm proud of it, I have trouble explaining things, trouble with spelling, have a habit, etc. When I got through hard times in high school, Someone suggest me to the series and it really change me. I really thank for MLP: FIM to learn allot about friendship, deal with bully and bad things it happens in real life. And I'm so glad that I'm a pegisisters. :)
Also, I can totally relate lot to Derpy because she very nice pony who try so hard from her mistake through her disability like I been through. (Like in "Slice of Life" Episode).
+CubietewelVideo Thank you for telling us. Good luck with your life. :)
Ever hear of the autism society? (No joke)
+Adamguy2003 same I am on the autism spectrum to I don't have trouble spelling and I am home school so I don't know your guy's pain but I get very childish at times and I struggle with social cues. I like MLP because I relate to pinkie pie and rainbow dash. It is super cool to see other people being proud of their autism. instead of seeing it as a weight to slow you down, you can use it to your advantage. For example I get really into projects and things that I enjoy so I helped out my local drama team with script writing for a play they were putting on.
+CubietewelVideo #PegaSisters for the win! This video is great because it reflects how I feel with my speech impediment.
if u believe in Christianity god bless u for ur talent
I've been a victim of bullying because I'm different. Not physically, but mentally. I've told many people this when I go to a new school. It usually doesn't have a good effect.. I've been an outcast to society, and after a few years I thought of running away, I attempted to. But what made me turn back were the few friends I have who were different like me, a group of friends who stood beside me and backed me up even when I was bullied. A brony, an anime adict, a bisexual girl, a nerd, a rebel, and a tech junkie. We all stood together as one because we all were different, but yet the same as each other. When I discovered this song... I cried because it made see that it's okay to be different, it's okay to be who I am... And thanks to this song, I'm who I am. Everytime I'm bullied I play this song and I smile because it send me the message that I'm okay and I'll be who I want to be....

+Lyra's Little crew of oc's and fursonas i feel for you i have the same thing but then not mentally im bullied for fun

#GreatToBeDifferent
i cryed when i saw this comment its relatable to alot of people like i got bulled for liking mlp but my friends stand up for me and when saw this video i cried and after that i read this comment i cried more
+Lyra& Little crew of oc& and fursonas Stand strong my friend, often times its us (weird) ones that form the longest lasting and closest bonds of friendship because of being kindred spirits.Don't let the stupid haters slow you down, be you no matter what and remember it them that have the problem, not you. (spelling corrected)
i have a simular story.. bullied since age 4, i never leave my home unless i'm going to the library. i'm a computer whiz with no friends, but no one to help me... everyone is different...
+Lyra's Little crew of oc's and fursonas
I've been bullied 'cause of my disease. I was born with it and had to wear diapers until I had one surgery. Specially I remember that someone threw a small glass pipe at me and a fragment went in my foot (I was wearing sandals). I cringe now as ones who bullied me at school are still my classmates and unlike back then, friends (one of them even jokes that he is my brother). But from elementary, most of my memories are from being bullied. Even worse, when I had a chance, I bullied someone. I felt superior to him, but I didn't like it.
Bruh, I'm not crying, You're crying.
There’s a reason the chorus of this is my senior quote. This fandom raised me, from 10 to now where I’m getting ready for the final Bronycon and college. I didn’t know what I was getting into nor did anyone around me or especially my parents lol. This is the biggest chapter of my life, my youth, and my younger upbringing. This fandom is everything to me, and with the show ending I’m.. sad of course, but I’ve got friends and a community still around me that I love. God know what the future holds for me, but this fandom, and this song, will be with me for as long as I live.
We had a great run
I love that Derpy's eyes actually focus when she's taking to Forest Rain, it's actually kind of adorable and touching.
I have never had a pony song ever pull and yank my heartstrings as hard as this, and the visuals supported it greatly.
I am crying.
Be exactly who you are,we all different but we all should love each other exactly who we are,no mater if you are a different color than someone else.We should love each other the same.
-Olivia
*sniff soo perfect. Good job Olivia.
-Brohoof
Your the reason I'm a BRONY!!!
To think, I first heard this song in the beginnings of my pony days. When I learned about this fandom, and this song, helped me so much. When my family was in rough times, when I was home and had my computer or iPad times, I would listen to this songs all the time without fail. And every now and then, when my anxiety in high school, hits, I remind myself why I keep moving and why I love this fandom. This song is the best example of staying yourself and not giving into societies standards. I never understood that until I moved across country. I felt much better afterwards. Thank you BDP for making this animation and Forest Rain for writing this song!
When I heard “These last few years flew by just like a blurb” all I could think about is the time I’ve been in the fandom and how fast that time has flew by. I never really gave it any thought until after the final episode and now I can’t help but think back to the 4-5 years I’ve enjoyed watching the show and seeing this fandom create so much art, animation, and music and how that will someday come to an end.
Y'all this song helped me deal with my undiagnosed depression in middle school. I'm an adult now, getting ready to go to college. I've come a long way through years of struggles and therapy but I'll never forget how this song made me feel.
Dang it! Now I'm crying! I love this fandom! :'D
I cried and do every time I repeat the song, 1000% wonderful
I like cheese too
SAME 😭😭😭😭😭
derpy makes me drop a tear, and smile
First time i listened to this and watched it i cried, i have Asperger syndrome, and we didn't find out till i was 13. I always got in trouble for things i didn't understand, when i learnt it wasn't my fault, it hurt a whole lot more. This song always manges to help cheer me up when I've upset someone by saying something i think is ok, witch upsets me as well at them. Every time i listion to it it makes me smile. Thank you.
What's asperger syndrome? Just wanted to know
:3
Its hard to explain in one post I would suggest looking it up, unless someone else can explain it easy.
Samuel Davis I asked one of my teachers once and they say it's kinda like autism (sorry if i'm wrong :P)
Ive been told it's like its on a scale, Autism is on one side, Asperger on another. Here's a sight i normally link to when people ask me on another sight.
www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/bhcv2/bhcarticles.nsf/pages/Asperger%27s_syndrome
Samuel Davis It's a type of autisim. My friend has it.
This song honestly made me cry. When I first saw this about last year, I cried, but not for the reason now. Now, I've been feeling depressed, and I was scared and emotional. Looking back at this.... It just makes me so happy.
The Brony Community is not just a fandom of strange adults liking ponies and making clopping: Its bring something not all of us had at one time, and that is friendship. Just waking up and going on Equestria Daily in the morning (around 6) is something to wake up to. With bronies, just being friends. Just saying good morning, and how are you brought me to tears my first morning there, and I couldn't stop smiling.
This show has brought many people joy, friends, and something to keep living for. Don't persecute us. Because we will keep standing tall. Don't be shaken, my little ponies. We know what is right, and they don't. We know that this world is dark and scary, but seeing the bright side of it keeps us smiling and going. ((AND JUST BECAUSE WE LIKE PONIES DOENT MEAN WE ARE PUSH OVERS I GARUNTEE THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THIS FANDOM WHO WILL FIGHT YOU.)) It doesn't matter who you are, or where you're from:
If you show people kindness, honesty, generosity, loyalty, laughter and joy, THEN YOU ARE STRONGER THAN ANYONE ON THIS EARTH, AND YOU ARE PURELY MADE OF STARDUST AND LOVE.
DO NOT LET ANYONE GET YOU DOWN, NON-BRONY AND ALL. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL, (UNLESS YOU TELL PEOPLE THEY ARENT BEAUTIFUL THEN YOU ARE A DOUCHE) AND YOU SHINE BRIGHTER THAN ANY STAR IN THE UNIVERSE.
FELLOW BROTHERS AND SISTERS AND WEIRD-AUNTS OF EQUESTRIA: WE WILL BE STRONG. WE WILL LOVE. WE WILL SHOW KINDNESS TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER FELT KINDNESS BEFORE.
Y O U A R E L O V E D.
YOU ARE W O R T H I T.
SO BE PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE, AND WHAT YOU STAND FOR.
I LOVE YOU ALL, AND YOU HAVE BROUGHT JOY TO NOT ONLY ME BUT OTHERS AROUND THE W O R L D.
YOU HAVE SAVED LIVES.
YOU HAVE BEEN THERE AS AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE OF FRIENDSHIP AND LOVE, AND WE CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH.
WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!
I honestly don't know what to say except I love you, and everyone else here. I've only just realised what an amazing community this is and it really is bringing me close to tears. Have a nice day and thank you sir or miss. :)
I don't know what to say. This made me cry. I love you and our fandom. This made me realize that I shouldn't be ashamed. I should fight for what I love. Thank you, you amazing, amazing person. Can we have a brohoof? /)
*brohoof*
I think of all of you as a family I've never had love you guys to the end /)
roger augustus Love you too dude *BROHOOF* (\
I've lost count of how many times this song has brought me out of dark and sad times in my life; it even managed to make me break down crying. A huge thank you to Forest Rain, Decibelle, and BronyDanceParty for your amazing work.
When I was younger, I used to love mlp to death, But as I grew older, I disliked it more until the fact that I hated it. A few years now, I've been bullied constantly. Now that I see this song, I've realized lots of Bronies/Pegasister's are Bullied for what they like. Feeling the fact that I can relate, I'm starting to become a Pegasister again.

i was getting bullied and I was on RUclips and found this song and I told the bully about this song and he stopped bulling me. He had no friends so I became his friend.
THAT'S BEUTIFUL, that gives me hope, we can chnage the world.
That's what I love to hear a bully retired
That is marvelous!
As we've seen both on 'MLP: FIM' (Nightmare Moon, Discord, Sunset Shimmer, Diamond Tiara, etc.) and in real life (Your bully turned friend, and one of my own, a childhood nemesis of mine who I now see as a valued friend), even the cruelest of hearts can often be brought to the light with simple kindness and understanding.
i was bullyed too and it was hard for me too. i'm sorry that you got bullyed
Thats nice :3
Listening to this song makes me feel good to be a Pegasister cause people bully me for that
And they thing it for little kids but its not
i've been pretty good at hiding it, atleast i hope. i think one person knows. but if they're gonna bully you for it your gonna have to either reason and convince them, and if they don't want to hear the you shouldn't give a shit about what they say. if they are gonna physicly assault you for it howhever you break their noses. don't matter who it is. just a straight punch in the middle if the nose should do.
Just say, "Have you even seen the first episode?" If they still bully you just be super nice to them it'll make them stop for sure! I know it always works! I get bullied too so don't think your alone on the bullying! /)Pegasister hoof(\
Christian Gamer that also works
Queerien lannister why do hide it
It's amazing what one simple fandom can do... from creating friendships, to helping to create a "safe place" of sorts where everyone can express themselves creatively as individuals. and as for this music video, it teaches that everyone is unique in their own way, whether it be through their look, their personality, or even their own thoughts and opinions (and intelligence)
I hate to admit it, but this brought tears to my eyes!
This song makes me cry every time and it reminds me like its meant to that it is great to be different cuz i am a mute and I have asperger syndrome and at school my friends don't play with me except for 1 really nice friend that understands
this song makes me cry too
❤️❤️❤️
Have a great life dude :)
Been 5 years. Not sure if you’re still on RUclips. How are you?
starlight glimmer disagrees
+Leaf Pon You sir, have made my day
***** i believe starlight is faking it and is still evil, she only acted like she had become good when she realised her plan would fail so then she decided she would earn twilights trust and get on her good side, but she is still secretly evil.
yeah i know its just my own little theory i came up with
***** You know, that would be a pretty bold move for the writers to do something like that and it'd be funny to see Twilight's reaction when Starlight pulls a 180
***** Yeah, but it would be something new to experience for MLP though
I think I'll come back to the community..
Welcome back! :)
Ignore him. Welcome back to the herd. Anyone is welcome in the brony community.
+NicholasGeschke thanks guys! :) it does feel good to be back
Glad to hear it, my friend. :) Have a good day.
+NicholasGeschke you too :) 👍
Coming back to this song years after first hearing it, it reminds me of my depression filled middle school days. And I’m pretty sure this song was one of the few things that made me able to see that hurting myself wasn’t the answer. The fandom might be dying but fuck does the music still hit the same spot in the heart.
It is not dieing
I had a friend, named Delaney. I used to think MLP FiM was a kid's show. For toddlers. I was eight at the time I knew her. She was my sister, Chloë's, friend. They were both ten at the time. One day when we were at Delaney's house, she introduced us to generation four of MLP. Luna Eclipsed and Canterlot Wedding remain my favorite episodes. Because Delaney said, "But before I show you the first episode I gotta show you these two". Without Delaney, I would've NEVER been a Pegasister. I would've never started a channel. But most of all I wouldn't be here. There is so many things in my life that happened all because of MLP. But... Delaney moved. Because her parent's divorce. We have no idea where she is now. No way of contacting her. She was separated from her brother twin, who Chloë still knows. All I have to remember her by is a drawing and a stuffed animal. She did a drawing of my O.C, named Inkie. Who was supposed to be a relative of Pinkie Pie. She looked very similar, but also different. To this day Inkie is my main O.C and always will be. The stuffed animal, is something she put together with felt, thread, and hot glue. Sure it looks a little jacked up but I love it. I love it so much and I'd never give it away for anything. It's a stuffed animal of Nyx. Nyx remains my favorite fan-made MLP character. So thank you Delaney, because, now we're theming our apartment room MLP. ❤ BroHoofs to every Brony, Pegasister, or NonBinaryNySister! (\ ❤ /) (\ ❤ /) (\ ❤ /)

+Aden, The moo force *brohoofs*
that is sooo sad but.. again thats amazing story of you P.S my fav pony is Nyx too.
Nyx forever 💜❤💙 /) XD
That's such a sad story but I am glad you could join the herd. We welcome anypony with open hooves. /)💜💙💚💛❤️
Dirpy is now my fav pony cause of you, BronyDanceParty!
I refound this song and found the 10th anniversary version at the perfect time, struggling with my job, struggled with my physical health for a little bit, my mental health started declining rapidly because of the holidays approaching and the loss that I've experienced during the holidays and missing the cat I can't remember life without. These are just so beautiful
6 years ago, huh? I remember when this released and I only listened to this song, and nothing else. I'm glad to be apart of this fandom again.
Bronies are really great and talented! This is beautiful and not the only one awesome pony video!
I find myself on this video so many times and I cry each and every time. I lived a depressing life and this fandom has brought me so much happiness in my life. I have started trying to help others fell the joy that I fell now. I believe this video is something great and Ill continue to come back to see it again and again. Thank you for making it and thank you for opening my heart.
This song is still touching peoples hearts to this day.
Fun story actually- I didn't realize this was what made me accept myself when others couldn't. That's not to say I'm completely accepting of myself- I know my flaws and I can be awkward at times because of them, but I'm still proud to be who I am, flaws and all.
A few people at my school made fun of me and kept calling me a wierd... just for drawing mlp characters...but when I listen to this sing I feel better about myself. ^3^ THNX TOMB!
So good. Even now after all these years it holds. A special place in my heart
Having Lazy Eye myself, I've always had a warm spot in my heart for Derpy Hooves. And this is just beautiful.
Even with those goofy crossed eyes, she's still an adorable pony with a big heart, just like Fluttershy. No wonder Derpy has become a fan favorite.
This video was my introduction to this fandom, and looking back on it after Gen4 ended, I think I might cry. This show and community means so much to me. I was 9 or 10 when I first saw this, and by then I didn't really have a mind of my own. I was just doing what everyone told me to do. I wish I took the message of this song to heart the first time I saw it because it really would have helped me in the long run. School was the only thing that mattered to me back then because everyone told me to do well in school, so I did. Eventually in 8th grade, that mindset finally ran it's course and I was freed after a year long, stress filled project. I wasn't happy in 8th grade nor in the following summer, but I think I kept this song and the community in the back of my head. I had to figure out who I really was. I eventually got back into the fandom (and more into music but that's a different story) and I started realizing who I was all along. I wanted to help people by making entertainment, and I wanted to be myself while I did it. This community has done so much for me, and none of it wouldn't have happened without this video.
Thank you everypony for your dedication to this community. It's great to be different
I can't stop listening to this. It makes me so happy.
It‘s been so long since I‘ve listened to this... wow, the nostalgia and love is real!
Derpy should be the element of kindness
Makes me happy that people *still* listen to this song/watch the animation of this song to this day.
I am in tears. Happy tears. Thank you so much for making that song. It is great to be different!
It is great to be different.
Where did the Fandom go? I'm genuinely missing everything from it. PLZ COME BACK EVERYONE
Me, too. And I feel like I missed so much because I'm new to it.
@@toaster7239 Actually yea you kinda missed a lot :/
@@BazTodon I know, and it was all due to me not wanting to be judged :(
@@toaster7239 Heyy, I'm new here too.
What's in the past cannot be brought back, but let's be thankful that the Internet has helped to preserve many of these masterpieces. Even if G5 brings a new wave of fans, it won't be the same as this. This fandom half-died back in 2013 and now it's just.. twice as dead, I guess. We can only hope to move on to something brighter and better.
Liquid pride... Liquid pride everywhere! And I love it! ~sob~
the blank flank pony is me
Brony, I am so glad you put this video on YT, it actually made me start to accept my life of being a pegasister when others make fun of me for having my favorite show a little kids show that's all about friendship and its importance. Stay awesome Brony, keep doing what you love.
This song helped me become who I am today, coming out as trans, and whom i wanted to be.
Thanks to April, Forest Rain, Fiaura, and most of all CinderScript.
if any of you find this, thank you from the bottom of my heart
same buddy :') when derpy said "the hardest part was convincing myself i wasn't stupid, strange or lame" i really felt that
@@sinkpig as is I am still kinda struggling with that
@@ambervetruvio2753 hi Amber, I know Fiaura and I will pass on your thank you! Goddess knows she’s been one of the best people I have gotten to know over the last year and change!
9 years passed and I still cry to this. It's beautiful
I'm serious, my friend talked me out of suicide with this song.
Thanks:)
That's Beautiful!
I hope things get better!
You are not alone!
i almost committed suicide
but i didn't with this song
Internet hug!
YAY!
This song isn't ever getting old.
Like just imagine yourself in ten years listening to one of your old playlists, and suddenly this song comes on and you feel about twenty years younger.
I was probably still a toddler when this came out, but I can just imagine a bunch of teenagers jamming to this in 2013
OMG This is so beautiful. I am crying tears of Joy. I love this so much. This really touched my heart.
your pic! oh my gosh! its snape! I love snape! (and the malfoys
LOL thanks I love Snape and the Malfoys too.
SNAPE!
I didn't think you could cry snape, I'm glad you have a heart after all
I only cry when I think of her. (thinks of Lily, tear slowly forms)
Okay, I love this song and all, but what's with everyone saying it's sad? It's about learning to love yourself, not despite your flaws, but WITH your flaws. There isn't anything sad about that. It's beautiful. It's not sad at all. You should be crying happy tears. Tears of joy. Because this is beautiful and amazing and not sad at all.
i think people are remembering their past that they were bullied in so uh yea...
mindlessstriker or maybe it's sad that she was depressed in the beginning and learned how to accept herself. So to simplify, how she was in the beginning
Tempazle Sprit
Ehh, I still don't think people should be directly focusing on the sad part of an otherwise happy song. It sort of devalues the good, positive message of the song. Though that's just my opinion I guess.
windwaker407 well, maybe if someone was like analyzing the whole song, or something.
That's exactly what I did, I was so happy, I was crying. This song relates to me, feeling alone and not accept who I am or how I look. It can just be very to accepting myself to become a shining star. If Derpy was real, I know she would help.
Oh, I could just hug you all right now. /)
Still here after all of these years. Never once forgot about this song. Its just as raw when it first came out.
This song saved my life again tonight. I've been struggling.
You've made this post multiple times, is there any kind of help I can offer?
What's wrong?
Keb Pleb I've just been dealing with a lot of crap. I'm going to therapy on Monday, and I'm fine now
Three-Patch-Problem oh OK well good luck on Monday then
You seem like your doing a good job keep trying
I was thirteen when I had first heard this song my family had always treated me as if I was different and I thought for the longest time I was broken and didn’t deserve to exist. One dark and stormy night I was home alone and I’ve always been terrified of storms and heard this song I was bawling in my room realizing that I was gonna be ok for the first time in my life. I’m 18 now and am livin out on my own and feel at peace thanks to this song.
I'm glad you're doing better. Stay strong!
Deadname thanks 👍👍
i been bullyed for 8 years and this made my day
thank you
ps graet work on the video and do your best :)
I think this song is amazing and exactly why Derpy is soooooo great and loved by the fandom so much , because she reminds people with physical or invisible disabilities (such as lazy eye or A.D.H.D) that being different didn't mean that you were strange or less able, but that your just a special star in a galaxy of stars who are all plane and the same.
Absolutely beautiful song. And trust me , i know all to well what its like to be treated like a pariah for being different, you really did a special thing here with this song, thank you.
I so agree with this i LOVE derpy and her part in this.
OMG YAS SNOWDROP OH MY GOODNESS YAY
FINALLY SOMEONE NOTICES I AM SO HAPPY!!!!😀😁😂😆😃😊
SAAAMMMEEE. I WAS SO EXCITED WHEN I SAW HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Activation7X I love you too buddy :3
YEAH!

I've just discovered this, and, honestly, it's exactly what I needed. Thank you to everyone who put their heart and soul into this beautiful video. And thank you to the My Little Pony fandom for being one of the only groups to accept me for who I am. I love you guys. I truly do.
this song reminds me of someone I cared so much passed away ;(
Well, we've all lost people we love. But you must man up.

+Jay M but isn't it great to be different? :P
+Jay M me too
i have a split personality problem : D
Aye me as well
a friend showed me mlp several months ago, now i watch previews every week awaitening the next episode. im 23 years old, so why? because i love this positive influence on me. thats what i missed all the time, to enjoy the omnipresent happiness and carelessness.
I have an OC pony who was born into royalty, but wasn't born an alicorn, so she was named Oddity. She grew up knowing she was different, and never accepted she could be anything. She eventually became wrathful and tried to pact with Discord. They became close and eventually fell in love, and she learned that her special talent was being her happy, chaotic self. Discord was trapped in stone and her love for him earned her a title-the princess of chaos. She earned her cutiemark in adulthood- a capital O for the first letter of her own name. Then, her personality split and her idea of chaos became hurtful, so she was trapped in stone with Discord. The princess of chaos now stands in the castle garden, and most visitors think of her as nothing more than a creative decoration.
Mary Sue
About 6 years later and I still listen to this song... It is one of my favorites...
i have bullies who laugh and tease me everyday but after seeing this i now don't let bullies get me down cause i love who i am and i am sure others feel this way thank you bronydanceparty for making this video and inspiring people
I was bullied all the time, I felt very sad, they call me many names, when I looked at the mirror, I said to myself, your the most important person in the world ,this world is a test, I'm smart, beautiful, and nice, I'm KassidyFinley, and I'm not dumb or stupid, i'm myself. I hope you all feel that way too.
It's ok. You are very brave to let it out like I did. Look around the top of the section, we all have stories, you can hear mine. Would appreciate it. We all deal with hate, but we need to learn we're better then them and need to buck up.
It's great to be different
That's really sweet of you to say those words. 💗
Np
What does that mean?
It really is great to be different. For me, not just loving MLP: FiM, but other things as well. For instances, I love classical music and oldies. I also like old movies and wearing double breasted suits rather than the more common single breasted ones. I don't care if people think I'm peculiar. I'm proud of who I am! Very excellently animated PMV.
6 years later and its still kicking
I feel like most PMVs have a message
This video makes me who I am. I'm teased (I won't say bullied because it doesn't get that far.) for the stuff I do. This song reminds me to be who I am. People are stuck trying to fit in and hide what they really are. High School is a big place, a lot of people don't accept who you are. It takes a lot of courage to look and tell yourself that you can be who you are and show it. One person in the school tries to show me up all the time and tells me I'm bad at sports, it always doesn't end up him winning. He makes himself stupid. I would talk about the show and notice someone tell me that I do understand that this show is for girls. I give them a lecture saying just because a show is for someone other than me, doesn't mean I can't like and watch it. People need to understand that they're are people in the world that are different and need to accept them.
Same but hey your with a crowed where people understand. I don't get why bronys get made fun of. It sucks. :/ but Isn't it great to be different?
+Micheal Valencia Yes it is.
Goofy809 Im afraid to tell some people im a brony cause i dont want to get made fun of but i know i should cause its who i really am... I just wish people weren't so judgmental. *sigh*
+Micheal Valencia Life would be better if it was that. *Sigh* Well... We have to tough it out. /)

This song kind of points out that no one is normal.
We are all weird though... which makes us normal!

This song helps me on just about every level you can think of. Every time i am depressed, angry, or just having an off day i sing this and i feel so much better. Thank you to the artist and BronyDanceParty for being there for me even if you didnt know!

Lyrics
It was a dark day when I lost my faith
I wasn't the pony I thought I'd be.
And it seemed that no one could relate
there was nothing left for me to see.
So I, took a walk, to the edge of the town
Thought of leaving it all behind.
When I, saw a little letter fall right out of the sky
As grey mare hovered way up high.
Thought I was crazy when I saw her wave
and then simply fly away.
So I opened the letter and looked inside
and what was written made my day.
It said, Isn't it great to be different
Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are.
When you learn to start accepting yourself,
you'll become a shining star.
I turned around and I saw her at my door.
That cute grey mare with the wild eyed stare.
She said. I've heard you play and sing before,
and I heard a sadness I could not bear.
I just wanted to tell you that the hardest thing I faced.
It wasn't the teasing or the pain.
It was convincing myself I wasn't stupid, strange, or lame.
And helping others do the same.
These last few years flew by just like a blur,
I'm now exactly where I should be.
And I know I owe it all to her,
that beautiful mare that believed in me.
Isn't it great to be different
Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are
When you learn to start accepting yourself.
You'll become a shining star.
(isn't it wonderful)
You'll become a shining star.
(isn't it great)
When you learn to love just who you are.
so sad, but inspirational. it IS great to be different.
Seven years later, I still love this song
A tear in my eye and a smile on my face...so wonderfull
Proof that cartoons can have emotional impact. Take that adults in my town!.
CHRIS YOU DEVIL
heh i like ur profile pic :-)
*****
If I had a penny for every time iv,e heard that XD
haha. I still watch the show!
And this is why I love the MLP fandom so much. Because they can come up with some really amazing work.
anypony else feel like crying.while listening to this.
especially if i sing it. it just makes me feel that much more emotional.
ikr
I fell like crying because it's great to be differnt :,)
Chase Moore i can relate to that.
:,)
remember everyone is different in their very own special way and nothing can stop you and its ok to make mistakes and you learn from them. thank you for all the musical artist that worked on this.
I come back to this in 2022, and it still has the power to make me cry. I guess i'm in this for life.
Bronies and pegasisters, may I have your attention! Life can actually be a pleasant experience! I have seen far too many comments on here saying things like: "This song saved my life" and so forth.
I want ya'll to be happy. Ask yourself some fundamental questions: 1. Do I possess a sense of self-worth? 2. Do I exercise my body as much as I "exercise" my mind? 3. Do I frequently complain about "good/bad" things that happen to others? 4. Have I obtained, or am I actively progressing toward self-sufficiency? 5. Do I spend time each day to positively introspect (meditation, scripture study/prayer if you're religious, etc.)? 6. Would my friends have a greater interest in lifting me up or pulling me down? 7. Do I instantiate the archetype of my favorite pony on whom I would like my significant other to be? 8. Am I only happy when watching MLP:FiM? 9. Have I been diagnosed with a mental disorder and am aware of the side-effects? 10. Do I allow other's bullying to pull me down, or do I ignore it when it is appropriate to ignore? 11. Can I rebut bullying in a positive manner?
Disperse questions to be sure.
I think there may a set of correct answers to this list. 7 might be tricky. I would highly recommend getting to the point where you can answer "yes" to 2. (Exercise can literally cure depression under many circumstances.) Whether you're religious or not, meditation in one form or another can lower blood pressure. Make sure that 8 is not the case. If it is, you might want to step away from the show for a little while. Be sure that you understand the full connotations of 9 if it is applicable. If you suspect 9 to be the case, you should consider receiving a formal diagnosis.
Anyway, I think you guys know the drill. I'm certain there are other better questions, but these were the ones which came to my mind just now.
Good points, we can all learn from them :)
I just follow the crowd! yay!
Rio Bray thank you my friend.
Rio Bray my cutie mark should be a shovel because dig out myself out
Hilary Fox No problem ^3^
0:45 You have been accepted into Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and wizardry.
You are just one of those wanna-be people, huh? Trying to make people laugh at your stupid jokes. This really made my day. I have a problem with my legs, so I can't walk normally. If your gonna hate, I would just think about the people who are really like this. I bet you wouldn't say that if YOU were one of those people. That isn't nice at ALL. They put a lot o work into this.
Veronica Martinez I don't see how making that comment is offensive to anyone. maybe i'm just looking at it from my perspective and not anyone else's, but...
Veronica Martinez Excuse me? That was just the first thing that popped into my head when I saw that scene, so I decided to comment it, is there a problem there? Plus, the whole 'Oh my legs and I can't walk normally bit - I bet you wouldn't say that if you were one of those people.' Excuse. Me. I've been bullied almost my entire life, even still now - and unlike you who thinks that just because I decided to take light of the situation means I have nothing wrong with me - There is something wrong with my legs - That could have been disastrous in my later life if they didn't find out what it is - I've got to be very careful around that leg, as it can get infections very easily and I'm very prone disease called cellulitis which causes a lot of pain.
Also - hating? Calm down. I was saying a scene from this reminded me of someone getting their letter to Hogwarts... How is that even offensive? People like Harry were having a terrible life before they got into Hogwarts, and that is also the situation here, she was having a terrible life, and the letter cheered her up. Stop being so childish that even a little comment makes you go into full rage mode.
Brian Allbright I did that when I just woke up... I ramble when I'm tired...
I've gone through many a "try not to cry" challenge without shedding a tear, but this put me on the verge of tears. It's just so beautiful. The most majestic piece of work that I have ever seen. You deserve the most awesome of brohoofs. I'm literally at a lack of words for this amazing piece of pure bliss.
I'm still crying over how beautiful this song and its message is ❤️
Edit: Awh, dang, I was cringe. Still an awesome song though, lol
