Battle is the third of eleven songs featured in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks that the Dazzlings sing to mesmerize Canterlot High into turning its musical showcase into an all-out Battle of the Bands. The song was first posted on the Yahoo TV! website.[2] The song serves as the eighth track on the soundtrack album "My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack", under the title Let's Have a Battle (Of the Bands). The film version is slightly different as it contains heavier bass and louder instrumentals, thereby obscuring most of the backup vocals, and also contains some echoes at the end of each line of Adagio's first verse.
The Dazzlings' wordless vocalizations in the beginning are also heard in the prologue of the film as well as after the Rainbooms perform Awesome As I Wanna Be.
Lyrics[ ]
Let's have a battle!
- [The Dazzlings]
- Ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh
- Ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh
- Ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh
- Ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh
- [Adagio Dazzle]
- We heard you want to get together
- We heard you want to rock this school
- We've thought of something that is better
- Something that changes all the rules
- Why pretend we're all the same
- When some of us shine brighter?
- [Aria Blaze and Sonata Dusk]
- Shine brighter
- [Adagio Dazzle]
- Here's a chance to find your flame
- Are you a loser or a fighter?
- [The Dazzlings]
- Me and you, you and me
- Why don't we see who is better?
- We don't have to be one and the same thing
- Oh, what's so wrong with a little competition?
- Are you afraid of failing the audition?
- [Adagio Dazzle]
- You're a star and you should know it
- Yeah, you rise above the rest
- It doesn't matter who you hurt
- If you're just proving you're the best
- [The Dazzlings]
- Ah, ahh-ahh-ahhh
- Battle! You wanna win it
- Let's have a battle, battle of the bands
- Let's have a battle, we'll go all in it
- Let's have a battle, battle, battle
- Battle of the bands
- [The Dazzlings and students]
- Battle!
- "Blueberry Cake": I can beat you!
- The Dazzlings and students: Battle!
- "Cherry Crash": Ha! You wish!
- The Dazzlings and students: Battle!
- Trixie Lulamoon: I so want this!
- The Dazzlings and students: Battle!
- "Captain Planet": Not if I get it first!
- [The Dazzlings and students]
- Me and you, you and me
- Why don't we see who is better?
- We don't have to be one and the same thing
- Oh, what's so wrong with a little competition?
- [Students]
- I'm going out and winning the audition
- [The Dazzlings and students]
- Battle! We wanna win it
- Let's have a battle, battle of the bands
- Let's have a battle, we'll go all in it
- Let's have a battle, battle, battle
