My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Awesome Music

Let's be honest with ourselves: Every song in the series, BGM or otherwise, fits this category.

See also the Awesome Music from the fandom.

Season 1

 * We can't go without first mentioning "Giggle At The Ghostie", the song that established the running gag of Pinkie Pie busting into song without anyone else joining in, and she couldn't care less.
 * The Winter Wrap-Up song, although it's also a notorious Ear Worm... and a bit of a Funny Aneurysm Moment, too, given how harsh the winter of 2010-2011 was.
 * "Art of the Dress" from the episode "Suited For Success". See Shout Out.
 * Sweetie Belle's gospel rendition of the lullaby in "Stare Master".
 * The Cutie Mark Crusaders' song in "Show Stoppers". The lyrics are pure Narm Charm, but the instrumentation is just epic rocking.
 * So Many Wonders
 * Episode 26's theme song, At the Gala, truly takes the cake. It's a song of triumph, not only for the Mane Cast, who have waited all year for this day, but also for the fans who stuck with all 26 episodes and found each of them awesome. Rainbow Dash's rock segment is arguably the crowner of the entire song, too.

Season 2

 * Find A Pet, where Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash sing when trying to pick a pet for Rainbow Dash in "May the Best Pet Win!" (the first song of the season!) is a perfect blend of awesome, cute, and funny.
 * With an awesome remix below.
 * Being able to work in not just a few recognizable measures but a large bulk of "Ride of the Valkyries" is pretty impressive as well.
 * Episode 9 Sweet and Elite brings us the second song of the season "Becoming Popular (The Pony Everypony Should Know)" and it's beautiful, though that's to be expected when you have a wonderful singing voice like Rarity's.
 * Even moreso, it's a great song as a standalone piece outside of the episode - it is the defining song for Rarity's modus operandi throughout the series.
 * Just a simple pitch change, and it's Becoming Popular, Pinkie Pie-style!
 * Although it's only a good half minute long, the holiday carol sung in "Hearth's Warming Eve" can be considered this and one of the Heartwarming Moments, if not even a Moment of Awesome, for the episode.
 * Episode 15 The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 brings us "The World Famous Flim Flam Brothers". Sure, they're trying to run out the Apple Family, but the vaudeville-esque song is just too damn catchy that you can't help but sing with them. Just ask Rainbow Dash and the rest of Ponyville.
 * Note that this is also the show's first Villain Song, and you know what they say about those being the best of any show...
 * So take this oppurtunity, in this very community....
 * Hearts and Hooves Day has the CMC singing the incredibly catchy "The Perfect Stallion," which can only make fans wonder, "Why doesn't Sweetie Belle have her cutie mark yet?"
 * The featured singers in this song were Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom. What makes this impressive is that they're both voiced by the same actress - a 13 year old girl.
 * The episode A Friend In Deed finally gives us the long-leaked song Smile, Smile, Smile. It DARES you not to do the same.
 * Twilight finally sings (MORE THAN ONCE!) in the second season finale, and it is glorious.
 * Her "B.B.B.F.F" song is both beautiful and heartwrenching, especially if the person listening has any siblings that they've grown apart from. And that's just the first rendition; try to contain your feels when she sings its reprise.
 * Special mention has to go the harmony on the very last "forever" in the first song. In a show full of amazing, layered songs, that small bit there had this troper's mouth hanging open in pure awe. Bonus points for Daniel Ingram confirming that the harmony deliberately matches the first few notes in the theme song.
 * The song she sings during the wedding reception, "Love is in Bloom," should be played AT ALL THE WEDDING RECEPTIONS! An extended version of the song was soon released on Hasbro's website.
 * WE FINALLY HAVE ANOTHER VILLAIN SONG! "This Day Aria," which is (sort of) a Cadence duet with herself is nothing short of epic and brings to mind another song from another movie...
 * Props especially go to the voice actress, who manages to use the same voice, but vary it enough that who is who can be identified just by the vocals.
 * The Reprise just adds to the awesomeness of the whole damn song. Especially the layering of her real voice and her Jerk!Cadence voice which is nothing short of chilling. (And awesome.)

Season 1

 * The BGM for Rarity's second fashion show in "Suited for Success" is pretty awesome as the Genre Motifs really do suit each of them.
 * The instrumental theme during Twilight's confrontation against the Ursa Minor. (Possibly The Jimmy Hart Version of Yoda's theme?)
 * Pinkie Pie's Leitmotif in "Swarm of the Century" and "Cutie Mark Chronicles".
 * Three examples are Sonic Rainboom, Final Encounter with Nightmare Moon, and Pinkie Pie's Psychotic Break.
 * The Cutie Mark Crusaders' own BGM, most prominently heard during their montage from "Show Stoppers".
 * Ironically, this is Will Anderon's least favorite piece.
 * Photo Finish's theme.
 * "Gilda's Rage". A heavy metal song in a MLP cartoon.
 * Gilda's Threat. In the words of one of the commenters on the video: "This reminds of some of the music from RA3".
 * The music that plays during the celebration at the end of the first two episodes.

Season 2

 * The BGM that plays during Applejack's corruption in the Grove of Truth is a masterpiece of Danny Elfman-style creepiness.
 * The music that plays all through Applejack's restoration, from around :38 to 1:00, especially when it shows her memory of running alongside Rainbow Dash. In fact, all the music during the restoration of the elements kind of makes you wish there was a trope page for Crowning Music of Heartwarming.
 * Enjoy the BGM to the finale of The Return of Harmony, in all its Star Wars-y goodness.
 * The Rainbow Dash chase scene has its similarities to a track from Empire Strike Back.
 * While only background music, the melodies in "The Mysterious Mare Do Well" can be quickly identified as The Jimmy Hart Versions of Danny Elfman's Batman theme and Jerry Goldsmith's The Shadow theme.
 * Throughout Episode 10 Secret Of My Excess, we can hear the unmistakable strains of The Sorcerer's Apprentice.
 * The BGM for Granny Smith's story (beware, spoilers!) is just great, and quite deserving for one of the most pleasant surprises of the episode.
 * Kinda sounds like The Jimmy Hart Version of "If We Hold On Together".
 * Using The Lonely Man's Theme, (AKA the "Hulk walks away to sad music" theme) from the 70's Hulk TV show during Putting Your Hoof Down when Fluttershy realizes she's lost control, and slowly walks back to her cottage, to isolate herself from other ponies while she tries to fight the monster within.
 * Said episode also contains The Jimmy Hart Version of Eye of the Tiger during Iron Will's presentation.
 * The BGM that plays during Twilight's securing of Ponyville in "It's About Time" is pretty catchy and fun.
 * "Dragon Quest" has some awesome metal in the dragon's crater.
 * The training montage from "Hurricane Fluttershy" was pretty awesome.
 * The background music during the "hoovicure" scene during "Ponyville Confidential" Is a particularly subtle example. It's quiet and tense ambient music that you wouldn't otherwise notice. What makes it awesome is that it takes a scene that should be lighthearted and funny, and turns it oddly dark. It conflicts with each pony's musical cues, evoking the idea that everypony knows the gossip is wrong, but is ignoring those feelings.
 * "Love Conquers All", the background music when Shining Armor and Cadence . It is exactly as awesome as it needs to be.

Other

 * Alright, this is half-fan music, but this cover of "Jingle Bells" featuring Maddy Peters, the voice of Scootaloo, is pretty awesome.
 * The official Italian dub trades the 30-second opening for a full fledged anime-style music video.
 * The English Theme Tune Extended, which is included as a sing-along on the DVD The Friendship Express.
 * Equestria Girls.
