• Music: Expensive Tastes



    I could see Fleur rollin with a theme like that.

    Also an Art of the Dress remix in the second one.

    1. I like that Fleur pic and theme. Good combo, good song.

    2. Has Fleur been confirmed to be her name, or is that just the most popular fan name?

      Because honestly I really liked the idea someone else floated out, that of Mare Lynn, after Marilyn Monroe.

      It's a fan name. The name is based off her cutie mark, which is composed of three Fluer-de-lis. These are stylized french lilies usually used to represent status of some kind, hence the name~

    5. I prefer Fleur, it just seems to fit. Also, kind of want to see more about her.

      1. Very cool, kept my attention.

      2. Interesting... but catchy.

    7. #1 I liked!

      #2 The beat got stuck in my head.

    8. #1 It was alright. Nice beat, though it just didn't really suit my tastes for some reason. Still good though.

      #2 Another real good beat. Nice remix.

      I thought so. I mean, I knew where it drew from. It just feels like...too obvious a name, you know? Like if we named Twilight Sparkle after her cutie mark, she'd just be...Star. Or Applejack would be something like Appletrio. Etc etc.

      Hence my mentioning an alternate name that's a bit more creative but still captures the same...essence.

    10. @Kyronea: I think the MLP/Brony Reddit community voted on her name, on behalf of the MLP wiki.

    11. Meh. Even so, I don't have to accept the decision just because a majority of the fan community agrees upon it. I'm not trying to be intentionally contrarion here or anything--I just honestly feel that Fleur does not suffice as a name for this pony.

      It probably doesn't even matter--I mean what are the likelihoods we'll ever see this pony again anyway?

      Obviously extremely high. Look at all the fan content.

      I know you mean in the series, but fanon becomes just as important with background ponies.

    13. That second one makes me want to Zumba. Nice dance beat.

    14. So these were both good remixes.
      Good sounds and beat to them.

      The first one had some damn BAMF intro.
      It's just the tune (I don't know what to call it) was too slow compared with the beat, so I felt it made it bland. If it were sped up I may enjoy it much more.

      The only problem with the second one is that I don't think the voice (rarity) matched well with the electronic sounds. If it was distorted to sound more electronic it would fit better, but here it feels too "clean" for the track.

    15. Both are fan-freakin tastic.

    16. I liked the last one, during the "snip by snip, piece by piece" bit it seemed like a march and i thought that was awesome

    17. I think the fanbase has effectively named her Fleur-de-lis now. I heard that Fancy Pants called her "Elizabeth" once, but after looking it up myself, what he actually said was "Eh, listen." :/ And he wasn't even talking to her for that line.

    18. The first is awesome... The second it's a nice work, but I personally don't like it too much.

    19. @Kyronea I think Fleur works pretty well, if you think about it as a "shallow" name for a shallow fashion-pony (which is obviously all she was meant to be in that episode - fanon will probably give her an ultra-deep personality completely disproportionate to her screen time, but that's fandom for you).
