The Cog is Dead - I Think I Love You [Disney Villain Style / Partridge Family Cover]

[@ivanivan744]

This is like the parallel of Hellfire, so..IT WORKED FLAWLESSLY!

[@thecogisdead]

That was the main inspiration behind this. ^_^

[@that1guylordz3n13]

@@thecogisdead very strong Tony Jay vibe.. Bravo sir, bravo

[@lordfelidae4505]

@@thecogisdead the inspiration is very apparent, but not in any kind of way that detriments the song.

[@Brigand231]

I also sensed a hint of Jeremy Irons from "Be Prepared" in there too.

[@simonhassnilsson7009]

@@thecogisdead this is GREAT, hillarious and epicly Villainous at the same time, you sir are a genius!

[@Papadragon18]

I'm really seeing this song as one of the two villain pieces in a musical, along with your cover of Bad Guy, with a villain unsure of his actual role in this world. The villain is forced to play the villain by the narrative, but while he enjoys his villany very much, he still longs to be loved and accepted, yet the plot won't ever let him achieve these things.

[@Yakmage]

So Megamind

[@serenityroseart]

Oh wow, so I wasn't the only one thinking this huh? Cool.

[@bugliimulligans]

I like the idea that it's a reverse scenario where the damsel actually falls for the bad guy and is genuinely sweet to him despite the fact he kidnapped and threatened to take her life. Maybe her Father is the accidental inventor of a dangerous weapon and the bad guy's intention was to ransom the girl for his potential doomsday device. This song is him realizing his plans are falling apart because he's starting to develop feelings for her and seeing her as an equal

[@Papadragon18]

@@bugliimulligans I've been reading too many Tumblr posts, but I can't help but bounce off of your suggestion with the idea that the Damsel was already in love with him - say he and her father had met over this dangerous weapon(As for him, we have plenty of people who invented terrifying weapons, thinking they'd scare humanity into never going to war again, so it doesn't have to be accidental), and that's how she met him - and she set up her own kidnapping to get closer to him.

[@michatuodziecki2079]

That could be the best animated movie

[@blackfedoramedia6498]

You even added the bumbling henchmen... Awesome!

[@andersasblom6452]

I would love to see this animated by someone.

@@b1acksol perfect. Make sure to let us know when it's done

[@izaiahsundquist6877]

It would be great if it was animated by the person who did fan animations for Aurellio Voltaire's The Night and Land of the Dead. Edit: and now When You're Evil.

[@Lishadra]

I’ve been thinking about doing an animatic of part of it with Bowser as the main singer 👀 I have the script written and everything

[@ElenorTheDark]

I want to see a complete Disney-art style music video done to this song, it would be fabulous. This song is amazing, I can totally see it in a movie.

[@DracoInduperator]

"You fool I'm supposed to kill her!" "That _does_ put a damper on the relationship."

[@SpiderandMosquito]

*Reads title, removes glasses to rub my face a moment, replaces them, leans forward and then clasps my hands* .... you have my attention.

[@marcveralalmela7321]

If Disney decides to brig back the good old evil and fun villains they need to give you a call for their song

[@Captain_Newt]

Seriously, this is a clear case of that situation when the cover is way, way better than the original. You did it again, man...

[@robertpennington1381]

I don't get it.

[@DRYeisleysCreations]

@@mshirzady3747 It's one of Cog is Dead's other songs. This could be taken as a prequel. LOL

[@sebastien_phys]

I swear you seem to be making some secret story with the villain character, first with the Bad Guy parody, then We Are Number One's cover, then this... anyone else feel like that? Great song by the way, I love the style!

[@Bluemangrup]

John has lost his mind at this point, but it might be for the best

[@xylopiano3]

The voices are all so perfect! I love the conversation between the villain and his minions. I get the feeling that this villain is mean enough to insult his minions, but not so cruel as to kill or hurt them whenever they slip up.

[@timbo7123]

"That does put a damper on things" killed me

[@lordfelidae4505]

It feels so villainous while also feeling like an honest cry of love. Perfectly done, kudos!

[@kingdomofchrissmith]

The arrangement on this is FANTASTIC!!! Not to mention the incredible vocals...

[@thecogisdead]

Thanks very much!

[@wspolnychannel5036]

I would totally watch steampunk Disney fairytale with this song in it

[@janoahj642]

'I think I love you' is one of my favorite songs, and seeing this kinda surprised me! Btw, your ability to do imitations is amazing! The voices of the villain and his cronies are done so well, they all sound like different people did them. 😂

[@janoahj642]

Yep, that was all John! You should listen to 'The Marvelous Mr.Lowe', I think that one is one of the most impressive as far as his voice goes. Plus, it's a great song! 😂

[@jejska2737]

You guys are seriously underrated

[@tbe9790]

Your band is so criminally underrated it makes me sad

[@500Rico]

This song disturbingly speaks to me.

[@thebreadbringer]

Of course. Who hasn't dealt with speaking like doctor Ivo Robotnik and falling in love with your captives?

[@curtishoffmann6956]

Hee hee hee. Oh, this is going to be *good*.

[@gwimbly8683]

Marvellous job as always, especially for this Disney Villain style! :D

[@arcticafox407]

This is one of the best villian songs i have heard in a long time. I love it.

[@cottle777]

I'm glad I caught this live

[@valtcfox5338]

"And if I can't be your man well then NOBODY ELSE CAN" that a fucking good villain poin of view

[@Terrour]

God, it's been so many years, and I'm still crazy about this track! The sexiest performance I've ever heard **

[@girlgeniusnyc272]

This is amazing! David Cassidy would be proud!!!

Just found this one and once upon a time I was a big Partridge Family Fan. : ) This was great, thanks for the smile!

[@JupritianArt]

It’s amazing that y’all didn’t really change the lyrics and it works as villain song just by changing the style of the music. Honestly I’ve always thought that “Money, Money, Money” by ABBA felt like a villain song so I’d be curious to hear that in your music style if possible cause I love it.

[@villainking990]

My mother loves David Cassidy and the partridge family and I love Disney Villain Songs...wtf...how awesome 😱

[@blacklion8307]

I love the Disney Villain song style, I'd love to see more like that.

[@scottyflamingo1413]

Possibly the greatest thing I have ever heard.

[@Livdaneix]

I just found this, I think I love this! XD

[@ShakaRakaNah]

Y'know, I was gonna type how this makes me want a wacky rom-com centered around a cartoonish villain opposite the spunky "damsel" that he kidnaps, and how some writer needs to get on this, when I stopped and realized... Megamind. I'm literally just describing Megamind. (Also, just try to imagine the look on the heroine's face throughout this number, lol.)

[@achromaticraven1938]

Oh my god, I absolutely LOVE this this is amazing

[@trentonvail6388]

Dude needs to voice a classic style Disney villain

[@MegaGermanShepherds]

This seriously gives Hunchback of Notre Dame vibes!

[@elohimcabrera]

I think I love... THIS SONG!

[@robertlewisjr.5389]

I don't know why, but this would be a great "Scar love arc" for some reason. Great job to the artists for making a really great song to sing along to.

[@redzthename8958]

I honestly prefer this version over the original. It's a lot more fun.

[@MegaGermanShepherds]

I agree!

[@raven6560]

[@hannahmellinger6789]

More! More like this!

[@te_deum]

Haha, I`ve caught some Hellfire vibes, despite the fact that this two songs are realy differ from each other. I think it beсause THOTND is the only Disney movie that I know where the song makes you sympathize with the villain, even when the rest of the time he acts like a typical Disney villain. And that line "iF i cAn`T bE yOuR mAn WElL tHeN nObOdY eLsE cAn", yeah :). Thank you very much for working even in such a difficult time!

[@Andrew-ih2gz]

When I hear this song sang this way... I keep imagining that everytime he tells the girl he loves her, she ends up buried out back. So at the end he kills like 6 people in rapid succession as he devolves into a crazed psychopath.
