Back to the Apple Orchard (An Applejack Love Song)

No, Applejack is not my favorite pony, but I figured that since I did a song just for the Queen of Pink, it'd only be fair to do one for all of the characters, starting with the mane cast.

I also think this would be a good introductory project for my idea of a brony music conglomerate. I still have to do, in this order, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Twilight Sparkle, which I will be doing in, respectively, rock/salsa, classic rock, orchestral, and chamber music styles.

If you want to help with your favorite pony, just give me a shout. I already have somebody for Rainbow Dash, though, and it'd be rude of me to keep him from doing it at this point.

As for the Rarity thing, here's what I need:
A pianist (not entirely necessary, but a live player would be nice)
A lyricist
A singer
A drummer
A jazz guitarist

I'm perfectly capable of doing any of these things, with the exception of the drumming, but if you want to help, these are what I need.

You can't tell a lie
Which sometimes makes me want to cry
Because then you would
Get in far less trouble
Why...

Sugarcube, baby
Days gone in the breeze
My heart was an orchard
You bucked against the trees
The time is past for grieving
My tears have all run dry
I'll leave you with my love
And now I say goodbye

Apple Bloom may be in the CMC
And Granny Smith has outlived three
But the only member of the Apple family for me
Is my...

Sugarcube, baby
Days gone in the breeze
My heart was an orchard
You bucked against the trees
The time is past for grieving
My tears have all run dry
I'll leave you with my love
And now I say goodbye

You have Appledash as a tag, but there isn't anything in this song that it inherently Appledash, and that's a GOOD thing. With most love ballads, specifics are blurred, allowing the song to apply to anyone. Applejack is clearly loved by someone, but we don't know who. Perhaps she doesn't either. Hmm...

@rjpugh No, sorry, that was just a typo. I don't like Applejack much, I must have been preoccupied with something Dash-related. All ships must die by canon.

If you need a lyricist still I'm your man, message me

[Doomwad765]

@AMVslowking No u.

Great work

Yes, I think about Applejack when I listen to this song. Good job!

I would offer myself as a singer, sadly my equpment is simply lousy. Anyway, I hope you'll get a good one for Rarity. Keep up the awesomeness! :D

@ragnaroksbringer The only fanfictions I've ever enjoyed have been the "so bad it's hilarious" ones. The ones everyone thinks are "good" just make me ill.

[ragnaroksbringer]

@Doomwad765 Bad fanfiction does that to me too, though I wouldn't phrase it identically. But if you read the stuff that gets posted on Equestria Daily, they filter out the bad stuff for you, so it's almost all good. Sure, occasionally a bad story slips through, but the quality is far better. (Good first fanfic to help you ease into the concept: "Imposition". It's somewhere on ED, and it's written partially to make fun of the bad fanfics, so it works out pretty well.)

@Doomwad765 Don't worry, that happens to all of us!

[Doomwad765]

@ragnaroksbringer I still haven't even read any fanfiction. Because I'm allergic to it. Fanfiction makes me hallucinate a red haze in front of my eyes, and when it goes away, there's usually a stack of dead bodies outside.
