"Pony" is a country song written by Kasey Chambers and produced by Nash Chambers for Kasey Chambers third album Wayward Angel (2004). It was released as the albums third single on January 16, 2005 in Australia as CD single. The song became Chambers third top ten hit in Australia and includes a reference to Ralph Stanley, the Folk, Bluegrass, and Country music legend.
"Pony" is debut single of American R&B singer Ginuwine, released as the first single from his debut LP Ginuwine...The Bachelor in 1996. The song was written by Ginuwine with Swing Mob associates Steve "Static" Garrett and Timbaland, who produced the recording. "Pony's" lyrics describe a blatant sexual come-on: "If you're horny/Let's do it/Ride it/My pony"...
Ginuwine recorded "Pony" in 1993, while he, Timbaland, and Static's group Playa were all still under the tutulage of Jodeci leader DeVante Swing. After parting ways with DeVante, Ginuwine obtained a recording deal with Epic Records' 550 Music imprint, and "Pony" became his first single".
.Timbaland's production on the song was markedly unique among R&B releases of the day: "Pony's " instrumentation features a start-stop rhythm pattern similar to drum and bass music, a bassline and melody formed by vocoded vocal samples, and a cartoon slide whistle. Along with his concurrent work for Aaliyah's One in a Million LP, "Pony" and Ginuwine...the Bachelor marked the emergence of Timbaland as a successful R&B producer
"Pony" was promoted by a music video directed by Michael Lucero. The single peacked at number-one on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks for two weeks - November 16 to November 30 - in late 1996. The song's remix featured a rap by Timbaland, and was featured in a second video directed by Christopher Erskin.
