You asked for it, so after much work, I've produced a rerecorded, remastered version of my original song, "I Remember"! It's got new vocals, a fresh playthrough of the harpsichord, and a mastering by FraGmenTd with inspiration from the original TAPS version. Hope you guys enjoy!

Original description text:
Backstory: Thousands of years ago, when Celestia and Discord (then known by a different name) were children, they were the closest of friends. Their friendship was, however, looked downward upon by the Royal Family, as, unlike the soon-to-be Leader of Equestria, Discord was a poor, homeless and orphaned pony who lived on the streets. Nonetheless, the pair continued to play together throughout their childhoods, and as they grew older, Discord found himself falling in love with his close companion.
Unfortunately, Celestia was eventually forced to take up her leadership duties as Princess, and thus Discord was left alone, forever lost to his only love. Over many years of loneliness, he found his confusion and grief turn to insanity and anger. Eventually, in revenge against Celestia (who he by now blamed for his own misfortune) Discord gave himself a new title, wishing to transfer the chaos of his own life to the rest of the world, attacking ponykind in a chaotic fight that was only ended when Celestia was forced to turn him into stone.
Many years passed, and finally Discord was freed from his prison. Celestia never forgave the colt for his siege on ponykind, but was simultaneously full of grief that he had taken that road. Discord was unrecognizable, no longer retaining any of the emotion, grief or innocence of his younger self. Instead, any remnants of who he once was had been shrouded by anger and chaos. While outwardly he was a new colt, deep inside he retained some of his past love for the Princess, a mournful longing reflected in this song.
LYRICS:
I remember all those centuries ago,
Back when the world was new
It seemed so flawless, now I know
That no perfection's ever true.
I once considered you a friend,
Before my world went straight to hell
The scars you've cause will never mend
But then, you know that all too well.
Oh, Celestia, my dear,
We used to laugh, we use to play
But now the world has changed, I fear
And all because of that one day.
Its truth seems like mythology
For none recall except us two,
Now misery belongs to me
And perfect bliss resides in you.
The choices that I made perhaps
Were not the wisest, yes it's true
But even so, we used to laugh,
Why did it have to end so soon?
Oh, Celestia, you were my rock
Before the fates led us astray
But now on different roads we walk
I wish that you would turn my way.
You chose to live your royalty
And left your dear old friend behind,
All alone, I'm never free.
For I only wish that you'd be mine,
I thought we were a perfect pair,
I thought those days of bliss were real,
I guess you never really cared,
And now Chaotic hatred's all I feel.
You left me helpless, I consented,
Turned to spreading fear across the earth
Do I regret? Have I repented?
As if my words hold any worth.
Oh, Celestia, my love,
We used to laugh, we used to play
But now you rule the sun above.
I guess there's one thing left to say:
Celestia, I hate you so,
My days have darkened, dull and gray
I wanted you with all my soul
But you just turned and walked away.
