Sia, 41, is an Australian singer/songwriter by day, and a magical pony by night, as it turns out. “Rainbow,” which appears on the soundtrack for My Little Pony: The Movie (Oct. 6), is simply gorgeous — watch the video above!
In the film, Sia voices “Songbird Serenade,” who is described as a “Pegasus and famous pop star in Equestria.” (Don’t question it.) The character’s design is actually modeled after Sia, and it bears her trademark wig, as you can see in the artwork. Pretty amusing.
Though some may be fatigued by the amount of soundtracks that Sia contributes to (The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, Fifty Shades of Grey, Finding Dory, and a million more) the song itself is a bop. At the very least, it’s appropriate for an animated musical fantasy film about a group of ponies saving their homeland.
Check out more of the lyrics to “Rainbow:”
Big dreamer, shoot for open sky
So much dive in those open eyes
So much dare, You look forward the line
When you’re wounds open
You will cry
Cry, ‘Oh no,’ when your question riseI can see a rainbow
In the tears as it fallin’ down
I can see it so grow, Uoo
To the pain as it aim the ground
I can see a rainbow
In the tears as the sun comes out
As the sun comes out
