Devious Diesel's Theme Extended

The original theme, extended to 14 minutes. I do not own this.

He purred smoothly towards them. Sir Topham Hatt introduced him. "Here is Diesel. I have agreed to give him a trial. He needs to learn. Please teach him, Duck." "Good morning." purred Diesel in an oily voice, "Please to meet you, Duck. Is that James and Henry and Gordon, too? I am delighted to meet such FAMOUS engines!" The silly engines were flattered.

[@Egobyte83]

This is so on the nose. Immediately when I heard this theme, I knew this engine was pure evil, like the snake in paradise, deceiving, ingratiating and manipulating. If you ever want an evil character to be underlined, you play a bossa nova in A minor.

[@goldprime118]

Diesel is better than diesel 10

[@brianbommarito3376]

Diesel 10 has brute force, but Devious Diesel has brains and cunning. If they joined forces, the other engines would be given a run for their money.

[@CassandraPantaristi]

@@brianbommarito3376 I wish Devious Diesel was in Magic Railroad, he would have been great in it as Diesel 10's side kick and brains of the two. Diesel 10's plan would've been more serious had Devious Diesel been with Diesel 10 to help destroy the buffers. Splatter and Dodge were just there as comedic relief.

[@CassandraPantaristi]

@@goldprime118 Diesel 10 is more maniacal. But Devious Diesel is more cunning and charismatic.

[@bardthenascarfanaticdragon]

In my variation of the show (Nick Wilde and Friends), Freddy Krueger from A Nightmare On Elm Street would be Diesel since both are evil, so that makes sense.

[@red5_skywalker]

I may be a Nascar boy, but Thomas the Tank Engine fascinated me more, the themes really made this show better This theme is for a train that is just down right evil

[@bardthenascarfanaticdragon]

I love Nascar as well!

[@bardthenascarfanaticdragon]

@Michael Poellot Studios This also suits Dawn Bellwether from Zootopia.

[@Stussmeister]

I find this theme very fitting for Diesel, as it brings to mind images of a snake slithering through the grass, which is not altogether that different from the way Diesel slithers around the yard causing trouble.

[@landonbittner5791]

To me, it also sounds similar to Trust in Me, Kaa the snake’s song from the Jungle Book

[@Stussmeister]

@@landonbittner5791 A good point, though it seems that Kaa (and Sir Hiss from Disney's Robin Hood) use hypnotism to try and get what they want, whereas Diesel employs flattery and deceit.

Terror (Springtrap): Despises people making a fool out of him.
