Yep, he did. That's why I added "...Spike can be seen singing..", and not just "Spike sings", since we couldn't hear his voice or anypony's voices. within the choir. The day we hear him sing, I'll add that piece as trivia ("...Spike can be heard singing.."), unless someone beats me to it. The episode gives Spike fans more hope that we'll eventually hear him perform vocals in upcoming songs. I was really letdown that it didn't happen in Season 1 (there was a moment where I was like "oh, he's going to sing..", and it didn't happen). So, yeah, I sort of got my wish, except none of the voices in the choir could be identified. I'm more hopeful, though. We'll see what the crew brings us. I'm not with you on "Winter Wrap Up" having the feel of a holiday, like Christmas, over "Hearth's Warming Eve". To me, it felt more like a transition to spring (or a spring cleaning theme).

I think him seeing what destruction he caused as a greedy beast was enough punishment for Spike. He felt really horrible over the deal, and nearly cried over it. Also, Twilight didn't know that greed would fuel Spike's growth spurt and turn him into this big beast. Even if Spike were to be punished in any other way, we would never see it happen in the show.
