Ranking Every Disney Villain Song

[@SpammytheHedgehog]

We'll never get anymore Disney villains like Frollo or Scar.

[@gdplayer8768]

I feel like Disney still has the *potential* to reach its renaissance highs. I think the main problem is that the executives are pushing all of its products into safe mediocrity. If they just let their creative teams run free with their original ideas, then I feel like disney can become a good studio again

[@miscellaneoussarnian5282]

Unless a massive shakeup happens in the Company (one is long overdue by now) Or are you referring to how Frollo and Scar were just so iconic (more than Ursula, Jafar and Hades) that no other Disney/Animated/Anykind of Villain will never be as twisted as those two from back-to-back movies who both went down in flames (nobody gives 💩 💩 about Ratcliffe and Pocahontas, TLK and HOND are consecutive movies)

Honestly, Frozen would've worked better if Anna fell out in love with Hans, the kiss fails, and Hans, desperate to save Arrendale as people are on the verge of death, decides that killing Elsa is his only option left. He apologetically tells Anna this and tries to keep her warm in her last moments before he goes to kill her sister. Have the circumstances make him an antagonist rather than have that stupid twist.

She still leaves the room to find Kristoff, Elsa stops the storm because Hans tells her that she's either dead or dying (which he actually believes this time) and Anna catches the blade before a tearful Hans could kill her.

[@jstnrgrs]

I figured something like, the kiss fails. The Duke tries to kill Elsa and Anna saves her. Then at the end Anna and Hans realize that they just met and have some growing up to do.

Typically in a Disney movie, the main hero has an “I want” song while the villain has an “I am” song. An example of an “I want” song is “When will my reflection show” from Mulan. An example of an “I am” song is “Gaston” from beauty and the beast. The thing that makes Judge Claude Frollo unique is that he’s one of the only Disney villains to have an “I want” song rather than a “I am” song. This sets him apart from other Disney villains. He is arguably the darkest Disney villain in one of the darkest Disney stories. On top of that, Hellfire is a well composed song in general.

I might need to actually give the song another listen but I think the thing that bothered me was how some of the lines were given with high notes being at the cost of making her sound more menacing.

[@smoldragon339]

If the original Lion King was being made by modern Disney, "Be Prepared" would be peppy, upbeat and nonthreatening because that's the "safe" choice, and the justification would be something like "But Scar wants the hyenas to like him, so of course he's gonna act cheerful and happy!"

[@smoldragon339]

The live action remake completely butchered "Be Prepared" in it's own way, but it still made it menacing and harsh, because it was forced to do so by the existence of the original song.

There's a reason why I always say Frollo is the scariest Disney villain. He thinks all his actions are justified, no matter how cruel and inhumane they are. And Hellfire, as you said truly embodies that idea. He blames everyone but himself because he thinks he's above everyone else and is absolved of all blame. Truly a masterclass of a villain.

[@carleeelders875]

Aside from Hellfire, which I agree deserves the top spot, Friends on the Other Side is my favorite Disney villian song. It's soo catchy yet dark at the same time. The song is about giving into your wants. Dr. Facilier is established to be someone who gave into his want for power by becoming a voodoo bokor. He is convincing Navine and Lawrence to do the same, but of course tricking them for his own gain. It was a great way to get the audience to both hate and love his character as a villian, which is exactly how it should be.

[@Lyendith]

Too bad he was severely underused in the rest of the movie…

[@ivanbluecool]

Frolo is probably the best one due to the beautiful scenery and amazing voice. Plus the small break to show he's obsessed and doubles down on his hunt. Scar is such a great song to build up his rise to power. Be prepared indeed. Tangled mother knows best I feel is underated. It's a slight mix of ego and warning so subtle yet so direct. Jefar in both tearing down alladin while also getting everything he wants is how a villain should be acting at their peak.

[@joshualowe959]

The Gaston song was a good villain song where the villain is praised and adored by the people. We expect the characters to hate him but they actually love him.

As a fan of Disney TVA, I would like to contribute a few honourable mentions. One: ‘It’s Gonna Get Weird’, an unused song intended for Bill Cipher in the Gravity Falls episode ‘Weirdmageddon Pt.1’, which was written by the one and only Neil Cicierega. Two: ‘My Evil Dreams’ from the Sofia The First episode ‘Day of the Sorcerers’, a full-blown rock ballad sung by the show’s (morally conflicted) antagonist, Cedric, which is also more of an ‘I Want’ song rather than the ‘I Am’ song typical of most Disney villains. Just *trust me* on this one.

Personally, I’d switch Be Prepared and HeIIfire. I think HF is a better song. But BP is a better *villain* song. Where HF showed us who Frolo was as a person and what kind of villain he was, BP represented both what kind of villain Scar is AND it shows what kind of stakes the protagonists are up against. So yeah, I’d rank HeIIfire above Be Prepared on any list that’s just ranking Disney songs in general. But when it comes to the added layer of villain songs, I think Be Prepared does a slightly better job for what it was made for. Either way, they both deserve to be in the top 2 🙌

[@evenmoor]

With respect, "Hellfire" does a _fantastic_ job at both showing what kind of person Frollo is and the stakes for the protagonists. Plus it has some fantastic bonuses for those who have an understanding of either Latin or Catholic theology: Frollo sings _It's not my fault / I'm not to blame / It is the gypsy girl, the witch, who set this flame!_ and the chorus answers back _Mea culpa / Mea Culpa / Mea maxima culpa!_ which translates to "through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault." In fact, the chorus is singing a prayer from the Mass called the Confiteor, which is a _confession of guilt._ The chorus is Frollo's conscience, and it speaks the truth he doesn't want to hear. "Hellfire" is an amazing demonstration of the nature of sin itself: knowing what you're doing is wrong and choosing to do it anyway. Frollo has one last chance to turn away from his evil path in the moment that he's interrupted by the guard, who informs him that Esmeralda has escaped the cathedral. But Frollo chooses to pursue Esmeralda anyway at the expense of the entire city. The last lines are "God have mercy on her / God have mercy on me / But she will be mine or / She will burn!" and the chorus counterpoint is "Kyrie eleison" ("Lord have mercy"). "Be Prepared" is a fantastic and memorable villain song, but "Hellfire" is on a level all its own.

[@waltsapartment-105]

I think the top 2 are indisputable. I would have put Shiny much higher, but each to their own! Lol. Trust in Me was missed though, and it’s sort of a classic equivalent to Madam Mim. I’m intrigued on the selection of using Dig Dig Dig instead of Savages for Ratcliffe. Dig might be the superficial desire, but Savages brings out the internal hate. I think if you’re including Cruella, then you gotta include The Phony King of England - that song slaps.

Thank you for putting Love is an Open Door on the list. I needed that in my life.

The red figures in the song Hellfire are saying “my fault” in Latin as he tries to blame it on Esmeralda or however you spell her name.

[@serenepastel]

The discussion of Poor Unfortunate Souls and Friends on the Pther Side just makes me wish House of Mouse still existed, because I would love to see Ursula and Facilier interact. Would they be friends? Rivals? Enemies? Who knows! Would be entertaining regardless

Tamatoa has really been his iconic image. And I'm all for it.

[@HeeminGaminStation]

I think you did “mine mine mine” dirty by not pointing out the cleverness of the synonym.

[@shyartistry]

Okay i agree the the majority of the list but i personally love Mine, Mine, Mine as a disney villain song, its always been one of my favorites, i love Pocahontas and especally General Ratcliffe Then i really like another song i dont think you put on here, but its from the return of jafar i really like the lyricism and tones of Jafars song, Youre only second rate, but i also highly reccommwnd the Jonathan Young Covers of villain songs as he is incredible and puts them in a tone that suits them more

[@Ganychan]

To me, Poor Unfortunate Souls is number 2, because the music and lyrics are superior to Be Prepared imo, but mostly because of its immediate effect on the protagonist. Ariel's major choice and transformation during it are just too important to the plot and many characters' motivations to be lower on the list. And Hellfire is incredible because it's an I Want song for a villain, when in general a lot of villain songs are I Am songs.

[@nathanblevins158]

Hellfire and be prepared should be number one. *28 minutes later* Yes! I knew it!

[@bella-0064]

I feel like people miss the point of ‘This is The Thanks I Get’ and why it’s not like other Disney villain songs. Also it grows on you the more you listen to it. (I have definitely not listened to the Wish soundtrack on loop for weeks on end. Nope couldn’t be me)

[@Luci-morningstar--]

Elaborate

[@JustStop19]

King Louis is absolutely a villain! He needs Mowgli to make a fire to destroy all of monkeys enemies.

[@Capydapy]

No? He wants the secrets of man's red fire to turn human. You know, evolution type of thing. Unless you mean the LA version, which I haven't seen and eh.

[@JustStop19]

@@Capydapy ok, you right, but he still a villain though.

[@vetarlittorf1807]

@@Capydapy Actually, it is deeper than that. Humans are feared because of their mastery over fire. This gives humans a power over the jungle that animals don't have. King Louie doesn't think he will literally turn human by possessing fire, but he knows that humans are primates like him and thus he believes he has the potential to create fire, therefore gaining the same power humans have over the wild. Louie is completely obsessed with humans to the point where he establishes his kingdom in the remains of an ancient city, but it's not enough for him. He and his monkeys are still shunned by the jungle and so he thinks the knowledge of fire-making will fix that. He is obviously a villain since he was clearly planning to kidnap Mowgli for a long time, sending scouts to observe him and waiting for an opportunity, which came the moment he learned that Mowgli was no longer under the protection of the wolves.

[@elle3839]

Great list! But I personally believe that Cruella Deville is a great villain song, especially for its era when villain songs werent so prominent. Its super catchy and fun and I wish Cruella got more love as a disney villain. Her car chase scene in the end will always be epic in my mind, plus her motivation of wanting to make a puppy coat is hilariously evil too

I was aboutta riot when I saw Be Prepared as 2 and I was like "HOW THE HELL DOES IT GET BETTER THAN BE PREPARED???!" Decided to hang tight before I got too mad and left an angry comment. Then I saw Hellfire. I felt real humbled real fast LMAO

[@OhHeckNono]

Wether one might like it or not, in Latin America Alameda's song should have a special place in our hearts, as the dubbed yodeling made by the mexican voice actor was *so good* that other countries "burrowed" it for their dubs, using the mexican one instead of the original english one or try to do their own version hahaha.

[@Angninjin22]

You know when you really did a good job when other dubs start to use your yodeling( the actor must have felt like a legend after the yodeling part)

[@ladypool1404]

'' This is the thank's i get? '' is at the bottom. Worst villain song. It's catchy yes BUT there's not a lot of rhymes; the chorus is the same phrase 4 times which is lazy AND it doesn't tell me anything interresting about Magnifico. He granted people's whishes, is tired of it and wants power. That's it! He became evil out of nowhere which was weird. Also, i saw the movie 3 days ago and can't remember any words except the chorus. I still remember the lyrics for '' Gaston! '' and haven't saw the movie since 2016. In short, his song is not memorable and sucks! '' Poor unfortunate souls! '' is so good! The music, the animation, the magic cauldron, Ursula's laugh. It give me chills when i listen to it, i love it 😀

I cant say until I was in that situation, but with that said Id seriously consider living in Rosa. A diverse beautiful kingdom I live in for free. I think thats worth my wish. I dont know. Maybe Id say no but it doesnt sound bad

[@sillyfudgemonkeys]

Love is an open Door works, but it's more of the innocently subtle kind of insidious. Tho it does rely a lot on the visual cues as well. But the Love being an open door is that it's an opportunity. For Anna it's escape, for Olaf/Kristoff/Sven it's companionship, for later (Anna/Elsa) it's healing, but for Hans it's to exploit. He's there to exploit his opportunity. Is it the best? Nah. Is it bad? I don't think so. It's just different. It's not in your face evil. It's there to trick you. And it feels purposeful, unlike At All Costs (which feels like it could've been Asha/Star love song, but then had to rework it later for how Asha/King felt about wishes). You can tell it's purposeful by the lyrics, the timing, and the animation to back it up (how he follows her lead, how he's just out of synch, something is OFF).

[@HarryPotterFreak623]

Ahh 😍 thank you for recognizing "World's Greatest Criminal Mind"!

[@SPAnComCat]

Hellfire Hands-Down the Best Villain Song! Because it Shows the Realism and Humanity of Frolo and His Motivations as a Character, As well as Showing the Horrors of Self-Righteous Hypocrisy in Religious Organisations and how Religion has been Vulgarised and Bastardised by State Religion and Religious Elites Since the Existence of the State. Which Frolo is One of the Elites. That's what I Love about the Song; It Shows how Realistic His Motivations are, As well as how Human He is. Even if He is a Horrible Person, And Yet He is a Fascinating Character..

[@princeapoopoo5787]

I honestly love the design of Wish's villain, so I hoped that his song would be good at least. 🙃🙃🙃 Welp Kinda sad to see Love is an Open Door so low. Hans was an awkwardly written character, but damn, if that song doesn't bop. And the animation is so fun to watch. I want to rank Shiny higher, same with Cruella de Ville, but there's so many good villain songs out there. I AM happy to see World's Greatest Criminal Mind as high as it is. Ratigan is such an icon who deserves to among the greats. Hellfire is definitely the GOAT. A true villain song that also feels too true to life as well. Props to you for mentioning Heaven's Light as well. Not enough people talk about the juxtaposition of these songs. Sometimes I'll just listen to them back to back, just because.

[@Tomas_France_]

I see myself in Frollo. We’re both nearly identical, but he is a coomer. Other than that, we’re exactly the same

If Elsa were the real villain of Frozen, I wonder what the villainous version of the Let It Go song would sound like. Seriously, it sounds like she doesn't give a damn about the damage she caused in Arendelle. Also, the slamming doors in our faces at the end doesn't help either.

[@sonicfanboy3375]

Let Its Go was written as a villian song in the first draft of the film

It'll have the same lyrics but the tone and instuments will be much darker, and the way she sings will be in a sarcastic and malicious tone as originally planned.

Personally, I would have switched Mad Madam Mim's song and "Love Is an Open Door". I also would have inserted the song about Prince John from Robin Hood immediately before "Cruella de Ville", then followed up with Shiny. Other than those changes, I can not think of anything worth changing.

I didn't know what went exactly wrong with that line "I let you live here for free And I don't even charge you rent" as I thought the second part was just the follow up extending the first one in a different way but at the same time something sounded unnaturally odd. I also realized like what Aldone said that it was just because of the grammatical structure that went wrong just by one single word! That shows how much impact one damn little particle ruins the connected bridge between two sentences together!
