The first song is a nightmare Mal had because she's pushing down her villain side and pretending to be a perfect princess Edit: space between gives undertones of Mal loving Evie like she totally glanced at her lips in the beginning but that might have been dove leaking through cuz she came out after she left Disney

In regards to the relationship between Mal and Evie, A LOT of the fans were desperately reading into it, and I think that song was their way of being like 'this is the best we can do under the chains of Disney', which was still greatly appreciated by almost ALL of the girls and gays hahaha [Edit to clarify that I am one of the gays that I'm speaking of, and there is no ill-will meant to either groups, just saying we appreciate the representation where we can get it]

So Ways To Be Wicked is something that only happened in Mal's mind. (Purple) Basically, she's missing the freedom she had when she was evil, because now she's in love with the king (Beauty and the Beast's son), and she's constantly under pressure. So in her mind, she just see her and her friends corrupting everyone in the wicked side.

In my opinion, I think Once Upon A Time is an underrated banger. I don’t hear enough ppl talking about it. It’s such a beautiful ballad and it may not be Queen of Mean or Good to be Bad, but it is an amazing song from D3. (I’m so happy I came to this vid early. I’ve never been here within the first hour).

[@Betsymcdonough]

It’s even better than Queen of Mean for me because it has true emotion and I actually like Mal as a character. I hate Audrey and her motivations for being a villain is stupid 😭😭

I liked the song, but I see why most people don’t, Dove’s voice is probably why I really like it. Some of the lyrics are good like “it’s not your father’s fairytale, it’s not your mother’s fault you failed” and “life is not a storybook, but life unfolds in chapters”. But I don’t think Descendants 3 was that good, and they didn’t built it up well so that’s probably why people ignore the song (the movie having Mal wanna close the barrier and lying to everyone felt too forced)

[@meekoSPN]

So glad you did Space Between. Its one of my favourites and hit very hard for me a few years ago.

It really helps give context for all of the songs.

I'll never forget the first time I saw "Space Between". My niece used to be hugely into Descendants, so whenever she was over it was almost always playing on the TV.

Space Between is right behind What’s My Name and Queen of Mean for me. My favorite ballad at the very least. Their relationship is just so sweet. I didn’t even fully watch the movies (and I still haven’t seen the third one) and their chemistry was insane to me.

[@wellsht7830]

Hey hun, answers about the dog. His name is Dude and we were first introduced to him in the 1st Descendants movie, he is the campus mutt in Auradon ! He was chasing Carlos (who was taught to fear/hate dogs by his Mom Cruella) and Ben said he was harmless so then Carlos warmed up to Dude and they basically became besties. Dude gains the ability to talk during Descendants 2 and helps rescue Ben off the pirate ship (you’ve reacted to the song that plays just before which was the “rap battle” between Uma (girl with blue braids) and Mal (girl with purple wig). Dude has some more features in Descendants 2 and 3 but I think you get the idea. He’s always by Carlos’s side :)

[@growingupwithdisney]

Everybody has more chemistry than Mal and Ben, we all saw Mal and Evie’s in Space Between, but I also saw A LOT for Evie and Ben in Chillin Like A Villain and for basically all their scenes in Descendants 2, same for Uma and Ben in their scene when he was tied up and she explained her life story

[@akumu_EXE]

5:38 the do is there because Carlos is Crualla's son and she raised him to be afraid of dogs, so when he goes to Aurdon he meets the dog and he bonds with it. the dog represents the character development of that character and also is really special to Carlos.

Mal's hair looks different in every movie, yeah. The purple from the first movie is likely her natural hair color. In the second movie it's briefly dyed blonde in an attempt to "fit in" more with Ben's social circle, but she gets that blunt banged cut and dyes it that pink-purple after she runs away to the aisle - classic breakup behavior. By the third movie, her hair is a darker purple with blue streaks, because she starts using Hades' magic.

[@agent8370]

Song explanation and lore: Ways to be Wicked: Descendants 2, The intro song for the second movie like rotten to the core was for the first one. It is actually just a daydream Mal(Dove Cameron's character) is having because now that she and her friends are good she misses some of the villain life. Once Upon A Time: Descendants 3, Mal and friends have been working together to stop Audrey(Queen of Mean) from turning everyone to stone out of revenge. It is revealed Mal lied to the group about getting rid of the barrier on the Island with all the villains and villain kids and they end up being caught by Audrey's magic and turned to stone. Mal then sings about her entire journey throughout the 3 movies. Right after the song Mal and Audrey's final conflict starts. Also the dragon is Mal, since she's Maleficent's daughter she can also turn into a dragon. Space Between: Descendants 2. Takes place right after chilling like a villain, (Reminder: Mal ran back to the villain island because she couldn't handle princess life) Evie talks with Mal privately about how she can always confide in her. Night Falls: Descendants 3, Mal's group (The main 4 protags seen in rotten to the core and ways to be wicked) and Uma's group(The main people from What's My Name) are working together to stop Audrey, Uma's group agreeing under the promise that the barrier around villain isle will be removed. They're going through the castle working to take down Audrey when Audrey uses magic to bring the suits of armor to life and a fight starts. Descendants 1: Protagonist: Mal, Evie(Blue Hair), Jay(Beanie), and Carlos(White Hair) Antagonist: Maleficent(Mal's Mother) Descendants 2: Antagonist: Uma (Ursula's daughter) Descendants 3: Antagonist: Audrey(Sleeping Beauty's daughter, direct rival to Mal in the 1st movie and Ben's original girlfriend, Queen of Mean in the 3rd movie because Mal and Ben become engaged)

one detail I love from ways to be wicked was that during the "Mother always knows best" lines Mal, Carlos, and Evie sang about their moms basically because that's who they have left "taking care of them" and Jay joined in with a different line moving the song along! I will explain Night falls: so this is when the groups of the VK's the 4 villan kids we've known from the first movie i.e. Mal, Evie, Carlos, Jay and the new additions from the ile of the lost where all the villans are were named Uma, Harry, Gil, and Cecilia as well as some newer kids brought over for the 3rd movie. But for this song in particular its just the main four plus uma, cecila, harry and gil , oh and Dude aka the dog! So they are trying to work together as a team throughout the song and before the song starts and Evie is sort of being the bridge between the two groups of the OG VK's and the Pirates who have history with each other... The dancing scenes when the knights copy Uma and Mal were because Mal took over Audrey's spell she was using to control the knights.... One thing to note is that Mal's magic shows when she's using it in her eyes they turn Green... And I guess since she's been in Auradon for a few years now she's gotten stronger with her magic abilities and since Audrey was only having magic because of Maleficent's Septer she was still pretty new to magic... plus Uma at this point has been roaming the oceans since the second movie and only just now returned to the Isle of the Lost when the Vk's were bringing new kids to Auradon... so it would make sense that her power's improved as well!

Well Matt I can tell u that knight scene is almost just as wild being in the context of Descendants 3 as it is being out of context. Descendants 2 where most of these songs are from has a great soundtrack. Very fun movie song review & commentary!

[@lilyraindancer5240]

After you finish the rest of the descendants songs, you should VERY seriously consider listening to the soundtrack of the One Piece movie Flim Red. Ado sings all of the songs and I believe that you would very much fall in love with her voice!

I couldn't help it...literally the second that you said they are.gods; my mind went immediately to "Well, I mean, you already did see that Hades is Mal's dad?"

If you love Dove Cameron’s voice so much, you gotta listen to her songs from Liv and Maddie! “What A Girl Is “ is my personal favorite.

[@amarvelousgeek222]

Ways to be Wicked is easily my favorite Descendants song, and I don’t know why either. It's just so catchy and fun.

[@whitetrash2990]

Why is it with most patreon stuff I'm like 'Eh, maybe I'll check it out if I like the video' but with Mat's videos I'm like 'I get to hear him swear? Sign me up and devour my wallet please', and it's not even a dent let alone a devour

[@kokisaichi]

I’m so glad he also got romantic vibes with Mal and Evie cause honestly they had to be in love. Also reminded me of when Dove Cameron said, “Mal is a pixie, and for sure she was also madly in love with Evie.”

I recommend reacting to some songs from a concept album of a musical called EPIC, it's about Greek myth, specifically The Odyssey. The concept album isn't finished but there's the first 9 songs that are finished, and it's really good (trust me). There are other sonys where putting clips together mzkes the full song, like Ruthlessness, Done For, Not Sorry For Loving You, and The Challenge. (The clips the creator has shown - on KZbin shorts and Tiktok - already seem so cool, it's an all-song musical like Hamilton, with 40 in total)

Rest in peace to the person who played Carlos, the black-and-white boy.

[@ludmilabritomedeiros3558]

One Kiss

[@kitkat_moushi]

that is a good one@@ludmilabritomedeiros3558

[@BlueIcyRose]

If you want to hear more of Dove Cameron and Sofia Carson together, I definitely recommend watching them sing I Put A Spell On You with Jordin Sparks for the Hocus Pocus 25th Anniversary Halloween Bash! Loved each of your Descendants videos!

[@lex7422]

I haven’t watched these movies in forever and yet I remember the lyrics. Not sure if I’m happy about it or not.

[@sisgirl123]

If you do another one I recommend One Kiss. It's my favorite because it's so good and gets stuck in your head in a great way. Sophia Carson slays it.
