One of my favorite parts is when Tempest says "Face it princess, friendship has failed you too." It didn't sound sarcastic. If anything, it sounded hopeless and almost sad. Tempest isn't gloating or rubbing it in Twilight's face or anything like that. She just states what she believes to be a fact. Tempest is essentially saying "Welcome to my world" or "We have similar experiences." This song gets so much more meaning after that one line because Tempest is relating to Twilight at that exact moment. Tempest almost even sounds sympathetic.

Tempest: *gets horn destroyed and almost got blinded*
“Friends”: k so like I don’t wanna be friends anymore.

[floweytheflower]

I think its cool how they hid a huge friendship lesson in the movie. The reality how 'friends' can be fake and everybody is not what they seem. Its rare to find true friendship but when you do. Its powerful

[echo-verse]

It’s depressing but Tempest isn’t wrong. A lot of friendships end like that and people can end up alone.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate that Tempest Shadow is one of the few villains in recent years that isn't afraid of scaring children.

[maggiejones]

Why is like, nobody talking about EMILY BLUNT?!
SHE'S SINGING?!
IN SOMETHING THAT ISN'T DISNEY?!
AND IT'S AMAZING!?

[Jkenzie]

This song is _proof_ that villains _ALWAYS_ sing the best songs.

[ratsinahoodie]

I still can't get over the fact that this girl got her horn _destroyed_ and almost got blinded when she was a frickin kid.

[Bee-ofxg]

(Non-villain) *Ponies:* We sing the best songs in the whole world. No creature could ever sing as greatly as we.
*Villains:* _Hold my beer._

[cherry_bottoms]

*My parents: asleep peacefully*

*Me up too early in the morning bursting in their room:* OPEN UP YOUR

Im honestly so glad they didn't give Tempest back her horn.
A big rule regarding handicapped characters is that sometimes they shouldn't need "fixing".
Tempest learned that just because she had an impairment, it didn't mean she couldn't be strong and have people who love her.
She's a great character who struggled, and in the end, was able to accept her scars and move on with the support of the people around her.

It's very refreshing tbh. Too many movies and shows think they need to fix handicapped characters, when they're fully capable of being great without being fixed.
Many people in the world aren't fortunate enough to get solutions to their disabilities. So to have characters like Tempest who CAN thrive and find acceptance without needing to get her horn back first is great.

"The best way to survive is all alone" that hits hard...

[yeetusyeetus]

When I first listened to this song in the movie it gave me chills

[oliviahumphries]

This is why Tempest is my most favourite "My Little Pony" character. Because of this song, it perfectly describes the drama that some people can be going through. Abuse, sickness, depression etc. I just love this song so much. 👍👍👍

[skyedwards]

The fact that timpest was trying to help her not get emotionally hurt is actually really nice of her, and no one is talking about it

[har.jasmine]

She's one of the villains i can't hate tbh like the dazzlings.

[ericblake]

I like how Tempest doesn't say "Somebody" and "Everybody" as "Somepony" or "Everypony", it shows how truly completely against she is about Equestria's society.

[kaiyabou]

For a kids cartoon this is suprisingly dark.

[draph]

"I'm so sorry you felt so alone."

"I saw the truth. My "friends" abandoned me when times got tough. Looks like I'm not the only one. Face it, princess. Friendship has failed you, too."

"Friendship didn't fail me. I failed friendship."

[winter]

2:15 - 2:20 That F major descent gives me chills every time. The low brass and low strings make it even better.
