Pinkie Pie Singing Voice Actor Confirms Christmas Song

Over on her Twitter Page, Shannon Chan-Kent recently threw this tweet up.  I'm sure its not too surprising, but it looks like we have a Holiday/Christmas song on the horizon.  

Can it top Winter Wrap Up?! Judging by what we have seen so far this season, I have a feeling it will!

Check out her page here!

Thanks to Tanner for the heads up!

Incoming followers!

AJTheEngineer said...

Oh I am so gonna remix this one...

Jon Fawkes said...

I can't wait, I'm so excited! I love Pinkie's singing so much <3

Rainbow Dash said...

Woohoo!!!! Christmas songs rock!!!!

Solarsail said...

"Today" implies she could be recording that for season 3.

Harwick said...

Yeah, but if it's something done "today" for her, then surely it's something they're recording for season three... That makes for a long wait.

I'd like to think I was wrong though. Not sure how they'd still be recording something for this Christmas when its less than 3 weeks away.

wackypony said...

yeah, this could be season 3 stuff, guys.

Shingo said...

@Solarsail: Shhhh! Don't take away the optimism. Let us all get lost in the fantasy.

Right, something relevant. I think this is going to be the very first Christmas song I'll actually enjoy. Hooray more songs.

ndrazzar said...

another pinkie pie song?!? YAY

Woof Hooves said...

the only differance between winter wrap up and a xmas song is the inability to listen to it year round.....LOL but still a new song WOOT

Infinion said...

holy guacamole! she lives in my city!?

Kaijyuu said...

We're getting a New Years episode this year, not a christmas one.

Guess next year we'll get a christmas one.

Kadreal said...

Gotta say, the songs make this show 20% cooler.

smokeydops2 said...

@Harwick

I specifically recall the work-load for Studio B to be very fluid and to the punch. I doubt this is for Season 3 simply because of how quickly these guys work. You heard it from themselves. They plan episodes before seasons, but they don't work on most of them until the season starts.

Beatfox said...

Yeah, it's gotta be Season 3 if she's only recording it just now. Still awesome to hear!

Nameless said...

Great, I have something to look forward to. I love Pinkie's singing.

Sketchonion said...

If it's not for the show, it could be for some kind of HUB holiday promo.

Beatfox said...

@smokeydops2
Actually, they said it takes about a year for any given episode to go from the planning stages to airdate - they typically complete production on an episode a month or so before it actually airs. Other VAs on the show mentioned that they're in the midst of Season 3 recording currently, so her tweet falls in line with that.

Unlimited Brony said...

Uumm... Was it really THAT surprising for you all, that we get a "warming eve" song and that Pinkie was in it?
Anyway, I can't wait to see the detailed version of "Teacher for a day". ^^

ohmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh

ponydoraprancypants said...

I wonder if it's possible this song is the leaked Pinkie Pie song. I could imagine that song fitting in a Hearthswarming Eve episode, especially if things aren't going as planned, and everypony needs to be cheered up.

Tarreth said...

Praise the Immortal Empresses!

Beatfox said...

@ponydoraprancypants
She implies that this is something she's just now recording, so it must be a different song.

Gryffinz said...

But wait, what if it's just a random, minute-long Pinkie song!?! I was hoping for something more like At The Gala or Winter Wrap Up.

CharginChuck said...

YesyesyesyesyesYES!!!!!!

Travis Smith said...

I bet some way somehow this will be an amazing song

Jax said...

Wooooooooo woooooooooooo woooooooooooo woooooooooo

OtterMatt said...

These guys do nothing but step up every single freaking week, and I've no doubt that this song will give me just as many goosebumps as the last two.

Raven said...

Also a nice shot of Ashleigh Ball in Shannon's next tweet: http://yfrog.com/nz7qdfaj

PonyPonyPonyBrony said...

My face. It keeps smiling!

Wolfe KuPo said...

yay~
I was going to be disappoint if there wasn't one

Xeddrief said...

I agree with the other comments that is probably for season 3. Oh well. Still something to look forward to!

Lag-y said...

EeeeeeeeeeeYES !

purpletrauma said...

Yeah, I was really suspecting there would be a Christmas episode.

Hearth's Warming Eve is one week before Christmas... the next weeks episode will be the day before Christmas.

And that episode is just the "Eve" episode; so what exactly is "Hearth's Warming"?

Ever since I read that leaked episode premise I felt pretty sure there was going to be a Christmas episode, in much the same way Nightmare Night was a Halloween episode.

Killsteal_Wolf said...

Hearth's Warming Eve probably is the Christmas Episode you know. If there was one planned on Christmas Eve or Day, we would know of it by now.

Likewise, don't expect anything on New Years either.

Chip said...

Pinkie Pie + Christmas + MLP song.
Sweet Jesus.
Though I assume that means this year's episode is going to be a New Year's one. Which makes sense, now that you think about it :P

V said...

Dude, Pinkie Pie singing? Could this be the "Smile Smile Smile" episode?

Well, since it's the Christmas one, that's unlikely, but STILL, it could be. (But it's probably not. (BUT STILL))

Criminal9021 said...

How did anyone NOT notice this word...

"'ANOTHER' MLP song..."

Pinkie Pie hasn't sung anything in Season Two, so we can expect her to sing in 2 or more songs in the future! :D

Solarsail said...

@Criminal9021

Well we already knew about one Pinkie song this season.

Joe said...

Season 3 recording people, don't get too excited.

kfish5050 said...

Hm. I am putting my money on the Smile Smile Smile song airing on the Hearth's Warming eve episode, this tweet is talking about a Hub promo they're going to air the week before Christmas, and there will be NO new episode on Christmas Eve. These are my predictions.

Great, going back to the roots (my first ever favorouite pony music was Giggle at the Ghosties, let's see if this one will top Rarity's gorgeous Becoming Popular!

Octavia said...

I see a lot of people mentioning the Smile Smile Smile song. lol Of course any songs for the upcoming episodes have long been recorded. But we shall see what songs show up on the horizon. :)

Abb_eliten said...

MOAR PINKIE TO THE PEOPLE!

And can't wait for Heart's Warming Eve episode

mattwhite924 said...

In her next tweet she has a picture of Ashleigh Ball in recording. I hope that means that Ashleigh's voice has recovered.

Beatfox said...

@mattwhite924
Ashleigh mentioned in a tweet back in November that her voice got better. She's been performing regularly with Hey Ocean since then.

MudPuppy said...

Before everyone goes crazy over this, keep in mind that voices are recorded WAAAAY before the episode premieres, so this is very likely a season 3 episode song, NOT one that's playing this year, or any time soon.

mrjoshmacintosh said...

Could it be for some sort of promo, not an episode? Like some sort of HUB commercial or something?

mcpaterson said...

I need more Pinkie pie.

ponydoraprancypants said...

@mcpaterson

The world needs more Pinkie Pie, especially at Christmas.

CityFlyer502 said...

These next few episodes are not gonna come fast enough for me. But for stuff I like, I have an amazing amount of patience.

mattwhite924 said...

@Beatfox

Cool, I wasn't aware of that. I'm glad to hear she got better.

Vanishing said...

No doubt this is for season three, which is awesome. Also, it's encouraging to see Ashleigh in one of SCK's photos, which indicates that she has overcome her vocal cord injury. Awesome news all around.

lexaeuss said...

You know, this could very well be for season 3.
And it could also be the leaked song.

Anway, new MLP FiM songs are always great.

mycutiemarkisagun said...

THIS TOTALLY MEANS ITS FOR THE UPCOMING EP AND I WILL FANRAGE SO HARD IF HASBRO DOESN'T FULFILL THIS COMPLETELY UNREASONABLE EXPECTATION OF MINE.

brohoof87 said...

Can't wait to hear it. If it involves Pinkie Pie i'm sure it'll be awesome

Tanner G said...

I never wrote an e-mail faster than this one. :P

colinholloway said...

I can't watch Winter Wrap-up without getting Diabetes. Can this top that?

4d4f5c2a-0f40-11e1-b2f5-000bcdcb8a73 said...

Season 3 or the fabled soundtrack. Definitely not this season's holiday episode.

Smashmatt202 said...

Does she have a FaceBook account?!

...Anyway, yay! Pinkie Pie singing! I can see this sing becoming a Christmas regular, and I haven't even heard it yet!

Slytherin said...

I knew this already so its old news to me cause I knew about the christmas ep before anyone else knew about the christmas ep so I can say this, HA HA I can pin this and the christmas episode and no I'm not being a grinch about it either

Criminal9021 said...

@Solarsail

Never listened to the unofficial leaked song and never will until it is officially released/on the show, so I'm going to disregard its existence until then.

c.t.burgh said...

If it's written as well and performed as wonderfully as Rarity's "Becoming Popular", then I'm extremely excited for this song. Whoever is coming up with the music is extremely talented! Great work!

KWA said...

Wtf is Xmas?
Isn't it supposed to be Christmas?

I dislike the butchering of the name inside the name(wat)

Heartmend said...

Voices and songs are recorded before animation is done, and Top Draw started Production for Season 2 in April of this year.

Because this is a brand new song, my bet is that we'll see a Christmas-themed episode for Season 3.

Heartmend said...

@KWA

"X" is the Greek letter "chi", the first letter of the Greek word for Christ. It's been used to abbreviate Christmas for a very, very long time.

Cedric Bale said...

Dude, I dunno'... Winter Wrap Up is, hands down, my favorite official MLP song. It'll take something pretty insanely awesome to beat it in my mind. The two songs we've gotten so far in S2, while both pretty amazing, don't even come close to knocking Winter Wrap Up off the pedestal I've put it on.
