• And the required Buffy the Vampire Slayer example: "What You Feel", by the dancing demon Sweet in the Musical Episode "Once More With Feeling".
  • Leave us not forget "See You In Hell", a Dark Reprise of the above, both of which can be seen here.
• Doctor Who: The Master singing Scissor Sisters' "I Can't Decide" at the Doctor. "Oh, I could throw you in a lake, feed you poisoned birthday cake. I can't deny, I'm gonna miss you when you're gone..."
  • And of course, "Voodoo Child" from the episode before. "Here come the drums, here come the drums..."
• The Mighty Boosh has "The Hitcher" and "Eels".
  • Also arguably Old Gregg's "Love games". He's not exactly a villain but then again there is what he did to Curly Jefferson...
    • And what he plans to do to poor Howard
• The Lallakki song Kill the Humans in BBC series Hyperdrive.
• Averted in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia with the Nightman's cut song It's Nature, Shit Happens from "The Nightman Cometh. While the song is the Nightman's major piece, he spends it justifying his deeds by claiming to be evil by nature ("Some people are born evil with the eyes of a cat").
• Super Sentai has a few examples: Himitsu Sentai Goranger has Akuma no Kurojuujigun, JAKQ Dengekitai has "Iron Claw's theme", Kousoku Sentai Turboranger has Oola no Urami, Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger has Bandora's theme, "Dolla! Theme of Witch Bandora". And compare the opening theme to Gekisou Sentai Carranger (seen here) with the theme song to The Psycho Rangers of that series, Bousou Sentai Zokuranger (here).
• Kamen Rider Gaoh is so much of a Bad Ass that he gets his own solo for his fight theme song of which all of the others are duets. Despite being included on The Movie's soundtrack, it is too good for the theatrical release and only gets played in the Director's Cut.
  • All of Kamen Rider Kiva's members of the Checkmate Four have their own theme song. All of them, including the two Queens and two Kings (if you count Roots of the King as such).
• In LazyTown Robbie Rotten gets quite a few of these. Most notable examples include Master of Disguise, Good To Be Bad, Woof Woof Woof, and Fun To Be The Mayor.
  • Does the infamous YOU ARE A PIRATE count?
  • Then there's Versti Fantur (Worst Villain) from one of the original LazyTown plays, which is arguably creepier and more sinister than it's remade counterpart "Master of Disguise".
    • From the same play, there's Glaumbæjargengið (translated by the uploader as the "Party Town Gang" or the "Sound of Merriment Town Gang"), sung by Robbie's minions.
• The direct-to-video show The Adventures Of Timmythe Tooth had the grinch-like Cavity Goon, who got his own song here (NOTE: Despite the video's title, these are not the Muppets).
• The Showa Kamen Riders have many. "Oh Shocker!" and "Akuma no Shocker" for the original, "Destron Sanka" for Kamen Rider V3, "GOD(Government of Darkness)'s March", (Kamen Rider X) and "Wahhaha! Terrorizing The Country!" for Kamen Rider Stronger. The last two are done by Names to Know in Anime Koorogi '73.
• The Muppet adaptation of "The Frog Prince" has Sweetums' self titled song.
• Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas has the Riverbottom Nightmare Band singing an eponymous song. Lyrics include "We don't brush our teeth, 'cuz a toothache can help us stay mean" and "We break up your place / We are dangerous when we are near". The song actually fits into the plot because it is an entry in the local Talent Contest.
• The short-lived Cop Rock had one song in particular called "Baby Merchant" that fit the bill.
• While he's not technically a villain, the Janitor's verse in the middle of Dr. Cox's Rant Song certainly counts.
• One Saturday Night Live "TV Funhouse" sketch had a fake preview for "Titey", a animated Titanic film produced by Disney. The villainous iceberg (voiced by Whoopi Goldberg) apparently gets her own villain song.
• Horrible Histories has many of these. Just as an example, Caligula, Elagabalus, Commodus, and Nero trying to prove which of them was the baddest Roman Emperor. And the winner is... Nero!. Other highlights include:
  • Aztec priests
  • Vikings
  • Highwayman Dick Turpin
  • The Tudors
    • Henry VIII gets a solo one, too.
  • Incan warlord Pachacuti, probably the most happy, upbeat song about how horribly someone treated slain enemies you'll ever hear.
  • Blackbeard
  • The Borgia Family
  • Marcus Licinius Crassus
  • It also has some subversions:
    • Ironically, Richard of Gloucester- infamously immortalized by Shakespeare as the arch-villain Richard III- gets a sweet, longing ballad in which he proves himself to have been quite a nice guy.
    • "Bloody" Mary Tudor also gets a musical chance to explain that she really was trying to be good (yes, back then that could easily include burning "heretics" at the stake) and wasn't so much unsuccessful as pathetically naive and unfortunate.
    • "VikEngland" is about the many developments the Vikings brought to Britain.
• The Annoying Orange tv show had Musical Nightmare Sung by Teddy Juicer.
• Game of Thrones has "The Rains of Castamere" for Lord Tywin Lannister, and it is awesome. See also the metal cover.
• Fraggle Rock has Manic McMooch sung by Wander McMooch.
• MacGyver even has one of these in the Season 5 premiere, 'Tough Boys', appropriately called the Tough Boys Rap. Of course, it only works if you believe the Tough Boys are the episode's Designated Villains, because they're just vigilantes trying to end their neighborhood's crack problem. Nevertheless, the song sounds pretty cool.
• In the category of "not sung by the villain" is Black Adder's title song, which has many variations throughout the life of the series and associated specials. The lyrics both praise and lambaste the titular Villain Protagonist.
