I think that was more leaning on the fourth wall than anything else.
Even when Shy brought it up later, asking if Dash wanted to sing about it again?
I’d bet that the pet song was non-diegetic too, since Dash was in perfect rhythm with her, similar to how they are in the big musical numbers like At the Gala and Smile Smile Smile. It was likely both of them giving a condensed version of what happened to the viewers.
So the songs that were digestic that Fluttershy sang in were Evil Enchantress (Flutterguy version), Hush Now Quiet Now, Find a Pet, and every song in Filli Vanilli. Minus the last one, these were all songs that Fluttershy sang for a small audience.
It kinda makes sense that they didn’t fully catch on, although the Heart’s Warming Eve play stage fright scene really should have made something click for them.
Actually, there is an explaination. Most of the songs on the show are non-diegetic inserts. What’s a non-diegetic insert you ask? Simple, a non-diegetic insert is a film technique that combines a shot or a series of shots cut into a sequence, showing objects represented as being outside the space of the narrative. Put more simply, a non-diegetic insert is a scene that is outside the story world which is “inserted” into the story world. Diegetic could also refer to sound in media or film studies.
The times they broke out into song aren’t meant to be taken as a part of the story, simply a means to convery what’s happening to the viewer, nothing more. In other words, it’s a cartoon, don’t take everything literally.
Now then, the only time we’ve actually seen her performing for an audience in show, as oppose to performing for the viewer, was Hearth’s Warming Eve. And, it’s actually easier performing on a large stage in front of a faceless mob than it to perform infront of a smaller crowd where you can actually see the individual reactions of everyone watching you.
That’s about the best explanation I’ve heard for it.
Well there was Hearth’s Warming Eve for the latter.
Think of this as a plot hole, but really… * shrug *
That said while the plot hole is obvious, I don’t think it really detracts from the episode.
or in front of a large crowed that is all looking directly at her?
no?
