*MOST DEFINITELY* "BE PREPARED" FROM "THE LION KING"!😆

I’d say Hellfire is my favourite Disney villain song for how dark it is and it sounds awesome. But I also love Be Prepared, My Lullaby, Poor Unfortunate Souls, Gaston, Friends On The Other Side, Oogie Boogie’s song and so many others.

Especially when he says " Like fire! Hellfire " and he backed away from the fireplace

[@ceciliahanemann7148]

Hellfire should have been number one. It has everything a villain song should shave. Be prepared is good too, but I would put it in second place because although it is good, it will never hold the same weight and intensity of Hellfire.

[@DianaGohan]

Yeah as much as Lion King is a more memorable and overall stronger movie, if we're just comparing villain songs "Hellfire" is much better then "Be Prepared". Like both are really great songs and I guess 'Be Prepared" is more traditional a villain song but "Hellfire" just hits harder plus man Tony Jay really sells that performance.

[@ceciliahanemann7148]

@@DianaGohan I personally think that Hunchback is better and it is my favorite Disney movie of all time, but I understand if you like Lion King more because Hunchback definitely has more problems than Lion King if you don't look at it from a personal perspective, but I still really love Lion King and Hunchback a lot more, but that doesn't mean Lion King is bad.

[@Silverfox89777]

I came in here thinking that just like every other Disney villain song list it would be number one I thought this was supposed to be a universal fact that it was the best Disney villain song

[@daniellem_24]

Agreed. Hellfire is just a really intense villain song that we’ve never really seen before

[@kimmccarthy7747]

I guess Be Prepared gets more notice because Lion King is far more popular than Hunchback. Lion King has the balance of happy kids songs as well as the dramatic scenes, while Hunchback is pretty straightforward drama all the way. I happen to like Hunchback far more than Lion King, but I can see why people prefer it.

[@enola2250]

In my opinion, what made ‘Savages’ so cruel, dark and villianous is that its realistic

Hellfire is absolutely the best villain song. It's real life evil perfectly translated into music. The soundtrack of Hunchback is so brilliant that, even though it includes "A guy like you", it's still the best of any Disney movie, in my opinion.

[@trinaq]

"Be Prepared" is the most epic villain song for me, and I was so disappointed that the 2019 remake cut it almost entirely! 😤😡

I love The Lion King but when I saw the movie, I can’t believe they butchered it. Chitwetel Ejiofor gave a nice performance as the voice of Scar but the villain song got me disappointed

[@DianaGohan]

I'm pretty sure it's because it was rushed back in. Yeah like originally the 2019 movie despite how much it just copy pastes from the 1994 movie WASN'T going to have that song in it. I have no idea why; maybe because they wanted to try going a slightly different direction with Scar that like anything in that horrid remake didn't go anywhere but it was originally not in the movie. Fans were PISSED hearing that though and obviously demanded it be brought back so they half ass threw it back in the movie obviously doing a rush job on it because of likely how it was shoe horned in last minute. That's why it was so butchered... besides the fact that everything in 2019 sucks compared to the original.

[@KittySnicker]

Yeah the remake sucked

[@olvialee7221]

Hellfire is my personal number 1. It's the darkest disney villain song in my opinion. All the other villains know and accept they're evil, but there's something just so disturbing about a man justifying lust and saying it's not his fault, but the devil's temptation. Also, can we talk about the background vocals chanting the Act of Contrition (prayer recited during Confession) in Latin??

[@myMelody4life]

I think "My Lullaby" should have been higher up on this list. It has some of the darkest lyrics in any Disney Villain song ("The sound of Simba's dying breath, His daughter squealing in my grasp, His lioness's mournful cry that's my lullaby" (also) "A symphony of death oh my! That's my lullaby" (also) "Scar is gone but Zira is still around to love this little lad, 'Til he learns to be a KILLER with a lust for being bad"). It's basically a song about a mom who is so consumed by revenge and hate that she intends on raising her son to carry out her revenge and make him a monster consumed by hate. It acts basically as dark foreshadowing of what is to come if Zira wins which then makes us, the audience, all the more anxious to see what happens. It's not in any way the BEST Disney villain song, but it definitely deserved to be higher than 18th on this list.

"Savages" from Pocahontas (1995) is Caucasians vs. Native Americans version of "The Mob Song" from Beauty and the Beast (1991). In fact, both Pocahontas, and the original animated Beauty and the Beast star David Ogden Stiers and were scored by Alan Menken. "Friends on the Other Side" from The Princess and the Frog (2009) is Jazz and Voodoo version of "Poor Unfortunate Souls" from The Little Mermaid (1989). Additionally, both The Princess and the Frog, and The Little Mermaid were both directed by John Musker and Ron Clements.

My favourite Disney villain song is Gaston from Beauty and the Beast My favourite non-Disney animated villain song is The Duchess I Must Be from The Loud House Movie

[@miriamiraci6167]

Tamatoa's "Diamond in the rough" made me instantly think of "My Shot"

[@captainwatercress]

Poor Unfortunate Souls is definitely my number one, but this is still a great list!

Villain songs are the best songs in Disney movies!

I don't know if this counts, but my favorite is Night On Bald Mountain from Fantasia. It may not have any dialogue, but it doesn't need any to make Chernabog intimidating.

Thank you for the update, MsMojo..!! Evil Like Me (from Descendants) was a cool villain song too..!! 🤣

[@fudgiemcfudge]

So many good villain songs in this list and I’m glad Be Prepared was #1. The Lion King was the first Disney film I ever saw and so it will always have a special place in my heart :)

[@paulkowald4057]

Aladdin Will always be the movie with the best songs!

[@williamfairchild7439]

Agreed with Friend Like Me, Prince Ali, One Jump Ahead and A Whole New World

We don't talk about Bruno is like the Cruella song. Except they were wrong about him. But technically a villian song.

Kidnap the sandy claws is not better than the boogie song

[@jonathannstevens1000]

Nothing gave me chills more as a kid than Hellfire, but, after I learned the lyrics to Be Prepared as an adult, I think that one is a close second with Prince Ali (Reprieve) as a runner up.

[@EyedMite]

Guys cmon HELLFIRE IS NUMBER 1 ! So deep! Listen to the video essay by Lindsey Ellis she goes into the thematics of it ! Before this song Quasimodo sings heaven light which parallels Frollos hellfire !

[@aliceramdom.s]

ok

[@jordandutra9029]

Yeah that song is so good!

[@vetarlittorf1807]

I mean, the parallel is kinda obvious so you don't really need Lindsay Ellis to explain it.

[@pandoraavatar9901]

Honestly, I thought that Hellfire would be the number one Disney Villain song. It’s my favorite, so captivating in melody and visual that I can’t help my skin covered in goosebumps every time I hear it.
