Perfect Day for Fun is a song featured in the My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks animated short of the same name. It is performed by the Rainbooms. Like Shake your Tail!, a version of the song with different lyrics appears in the My Little Pony: Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks screenplay novelization of the animated shorts.
The short is one of the first eight released as a tie-in to the Rainbow Rocks film. It is the first to be published by the Latin American Spanish My Little Pony Equestria Girls ES YouTube channel, in Spanish on June 18, 2014,[3] the eighth to be published by the Hasbro Studios Shorts YouTube channel, in English on June 19, 2014, the seventh to be published by the My Little Pony Facebook page, in English on July 2, 2014,[4] and the eighth to be published overall.
On BMI, the song is registered as "With My Best Friends".
Production[]
The short was adapted into chapter 1 of the Rainbow Rocks novelization, which was released months earlier than the short itself. According to the book, as is for the short Shake Your Tail, Twilight and Spike's presence in this short is just a figment of Twilight's imagination, because she misses her Canterlot High friends, so she imagines to be there with them.
Animated short summary[]
The short is a music video wherein Twilight Sparkle and her human friends have fun at a Canterlot High evening carnival. With the exception of Applejack, the six have no dialogue in the short and instead communicate via text messages. Interspersed with this are shots of the girls singing and playing instruments on a stage.
Applejack and Rainbow Dash try a high-striker game; both of them are beaten by puppy Spike. Fluttershy plays "Whack-A-Mole!", but instead of whacking the moles, she pets them. She does however whack a Discord plush doll out of Twilight's hands. Pinkie Pie and Rarity enjoy cotton candy. Eventually the six friends meet up at a pair of photo booths and take pictures.
As the girls begin their stage performance, everyone on the carnival grounds starts dancing. Photos on Twilight's phone show the six friends enjoying other carnival games and attractions. At the end of the song, Spike, Flash Sentry, the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Big McIntosh, Miss Cheerilee, Granny Smith, Trixie Lulamoon, DJ Pon-3, and Vice Principal Luna come together for a group photo. The short concludes with Twilight and her friends looking at photos while riding the Ferris wheel.
