History VillainSong / Disney

* Pocahontas had several, first being [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFHym_W6vkE Mine, Mine, Mine]], second was [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0vJkw4sfP4&feature=related Savages]]. Of course latter was sung by both the colonists and the natives, and neither group was really [[GreyandGreyMorality the "good guys" at the time]]

* Instead of a musical number, Maleficent of ''Disney/SleepingBeauty'' gets a Villain Poem, where she mockingly tells the SleepingBeauty fairy tale to the imprisoned Prince Philip, gloating over her victory via SarcasmMode and EvilLaughter. It serves the same purpose as a villain song while being creepily low-key.

* Notable aversion: Shan Yu, the BigBad of ''{{Mulan}}'' does not have a Villain Song at, and therefore he is one of the few official Disney Villains (maybe drop the "official" part because [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters ''all'' of the villains are included in that franchise)]] not to have one (much like Mulan being one of the few official [[DisneyPrincess Disney Princesses]] that is neither royalty by birth nor marriage). This is probably for the better since it actually does not suit [[TheQuietOne his personality]] at all and having him sing would totally make him feel out of character.

** In the film, the song is cut about a quarter of the way through. Sensational singer [[http://www.youtube.com/user/katethegreat19 kaththegreat19 / Erutan]] took [[http://themikla.xanga.com/495860348/item/ the poem]] it was based on (written by none other that ''EdgarAllanPoe'') and spun it into a ''hauntingly'' beautiful piece that released on [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKlsUrfbiE0 Halloween 2009]]. It will leave you shivering.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zANV9XNwfE4 "Mad Madame Mim"]] from ''TheSwordInTheStone''.

* The Siamese Cats' [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdDla0QW844 "We are Siamese"]] from ''LadyAndTheTramp'' is a bit of a special case, as the song itself is the characters' only appearance in the film. It still ends up being one of the most memorable scenes.
* ''TheRescuersDownUnder'' has EvilPoacher [=McLeach=] singing his own version of Home on the Range while driving home. His lyrics are a little...[[NightmareFuel different]] than the original's:

* It's a cover, but this [[http://obscuredisneysongs.tumblr.com/post/25813138424/villains-medley-by-all-night-yahtzee-a-great-a a capella medley]] of "Poor Unfortunate Souls", "Cruella De Ville", "We Are Siamese", and "Be Prepared" must be noted. "Poor Unfortunate Souls" is particularly notable, for when the background vocals filling in for instruments start singing "No no no no no!" when previously they'd been wordless or backing up what Cruella's singing.

* Pocahontas had several, first being [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFHym_W6vkE Dig for Virginia]], second was [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0vJkw4sfP4&feature=related Savages]]. Of course latter was sung by both the colonists and the natives, and neither group was really [[GreyandGreyMorality the "good guys" at the time]]

"Poor Unfortunate Souls" is particularly notable, for when the background vocals filling in for instruments start singing "No no no no no!"

* Mother Gothel in ''{{Tangled}}'' has ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HD_i4hRYd8U Mother Knows Best]]'', which takes on the tone of a demented version of MaryPoppins. Then there's the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGmGLfBQ32c reprise]].

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smMc2s8q5Yk "Temper Temper"]], in the new musical of ''MaryPoppins'', which features the children's toys coming to life, growing larger than the children themselves, and holding the children trial for having lost their tempers -- for, "children who lose their tempers ''[[NightmareFuel lose everything else in the end!]]''"

** As Disney's first take on ''MaryPoppins'' didn't have a clear villain, it would seem to be exempt from this rule, but "Fidelity Fiduciary Bank" gives it a try anyhow. Mr. Banks and his bosses at the bank are the closest thing ''Mary Poppins'' has to a villain until his HeelFaceTurn; he is against Mary Poppins herself, fun, and compassion because they interfere with order.

*** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixBc6ffdW8E Dutch version]]. Has the added scare-bonus of Zira sharing a voice actress with [[TheLittleMermaid Ursula]].

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyFVG4VfPmg "Poor, Unfortunate Souls"]] from ''TheLittleMermaid''.
** Ursula gets another song, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGp1479XJzo Mess With Me]] in the animated series of The Little Mermaid.

* The Broadway production of ''TheLionKing'' adds "The Madness of King Scar", from his catastrophic reign over Pride Rock. [[VillainousBreakdown He's]] [[ZeroPercentApprovalRating lost]] [[IHaveYouNowMyPretty it]].

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0AiN8vrn9Y "Be Prepared"]] from ''TheLionKing''. Just to drive the point home, the chorus of hyenas backing Scar through this song up march in formation at one point, in a manner based on footage of a real-world Nazi rally. Furthermore, most Villain Songs involve the villain's evil laughter at the end. This one trumps them all, with not just Scar and his TerribleTrio laughing, but about 200 OTHER hyenas joining in with them.

** The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ao32X0Dpr0 Italian version]].

** The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDtlGnntkZo French version]].

** And the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKuW5VmtRH8 Arabic version]] has great lyrics.

*** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvduyoyvaX4 Hungarian version]].
*** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ac2J3vAF00 Hebrew version]].

*** Ursula wasn't the only villain to get a song in the animated series. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv9-KY9Rsg8#t=2m22s When you cast Tim Curry as a recurring villain, you've gotta let him sing!]]

** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuuEDDyvzuE "Les Poissons"]] is also from ''The Little Mermaid''. Although [[EvilChef Louis]] isn't a flat-out villain, he does try to kill Sebastian, and the song is certainly sadistic enough to qualify.

** Louie's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOcyYyxqN_g "I Wanna Be Like You"]], about an orangutan's ambition to steal fire and thus become human... He's not particularly villainous, but he isn't a good guy either. Disney officially counts it as one, having put it on the ''Simply Sinister Songs'' CD.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDMfpbdbHWg "Gaston"]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDr_0n_7WSE "Gaston (Reprise)"]], and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=917Q8dbpRLE "The Mob Song"]] in ''Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast''
** In the stage version, "Me" and "Maison des Lunes" (the latter comes when he plots to institutionalize Maurice) also qualify as these. "Me" is an example of the unconscious villain, as it's Gaston stating the facts of ''his'' little universe - which are that he's the best and he deserves his dreams to come true, because he's every woman's dream. "Maison des Lunes" is more straightforward, in that it involves wrongfully imprisoning a weak old man so Gaston can marry his willful daughter -- and ''relishing'' every minute of it.
** The musical version of "Gaston (Reprise) includes a few new lines at the end, which involve Lefou and Gaston [[CardCarryingVillain singing about how devious and evil he is]], flat-out stating that he knows how terrible his actions are, but that he doesn't care so long as he gets his way.

** It's also a bonus in the Australian version because he's played by Hugh Jackman (who played Wolverine in the ''X Men'' movies).

** Behold, lo mortals! The German version! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3dfBvuHSzk
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcWydg8pTWc&p=6D8287BD752DD0D8&playnext=1&index=18 Court of Miracles]] from the same film has lyrics and sinister visuals worthy of a VillainSong, so it deserves a honorary mention, even if it is not actually sung by a villain.
** The first half of Out There may count...

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P99grcBer30 "Mine, Mine, Mine"]] in ''Disney/{{Pocahontas}}'', at least the parts that aren't sung by John Smith. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1klLTb1rbE "Savages"]] is a half-example, as part of the song is sung by the villain for his own selfish motives. It's got a very obvious Xenophobia Is Bad [[AnAesop Aesop]].
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7vAoXV6GYo "Things Are Not What They Appear"]] was given to Ratcliffe in the sequel as he manages to show that Pocahontas would be a fraud.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dIdVg-kW-k "Feel Like a Million"]], from ''The Emperor's New Groove 2: Kronk's New Groove'', may not be ''that'' impressive, but given the movie is almost not a musical at all, it must mean something...

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zorunDOqaYE "Kidnap the Sandy Claws"]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDPWbXAWflA "Oogie Boogie's Song"]] from ''TheNightmareBeforeChristmas''. The former is a different take on the trope because it applies to the QuirkyMinibossSquad rather than the villain himself.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oLTmZKfjPQ "Petey's King of France"]] from the direct to DVD ''MickeyDonaldGoofyTheThreeMusketeers''.

* And, of course, one of the first ones! [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SI9joVXW3DE Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee!]] [[Disney/{{Pinocchio}} An Actor's Life For Me!]] Also a major EarWorm.

* The Beagle Boys from ''DuckTales'' performed two different songs in the episodes [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZmxBKoPitk "Time Teasers"]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sahvwtXuiVM "Beaglemania"]]; their song from the latter episode (which ironically became a MissingEpisode on ToonDisney) was included on the Disney Afternoon soundtrack.

** Fat Cat's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naZjI-CcQlY "The Best Of Everything"]] from the FiveEpisodePilot "To The Rescue". Not to be outdone by [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_qrIaBUuXQ "The Fat Cat Stomp"]], initially performed by Chip and Dale in drag in "Adventures In Squirrelsitting", but later reprised by Fat Cat himself in the next scene.
** Irweena Allen ("Risky Beesness") has her own song, too ([[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtFv_GbPctc "You're The Best Bee For Me"]]), and Sewernose de Bergerac ("A Case of Stage Blight") joins the Pirates of Peejama performance. In fact, not even the Coo-Koo Cola jingle ("The Case of the Cola Cult") remains untouched by villains.
* In the four-part ''WesternAnimation/TaleSpin'' pilot, Don Karnage reminds his Air Pirate underlings of what they do with [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3y0-QjmAZ0 "Sky Pirates"]].

** There's also "A Pirates Life For Me" on the "Pirates of the Carribean" ride, basically just the pirates singing about what they do.

* Two villains equals two villain songs in ''PetesDragon''. The Goguns had "We Got A Bill Of Sale" and Dr. Terminus gleefully dissected the title character in "Every Little Piece".

** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyrp5bNYboM "MY NAME IS DOOF AND YOU'LL DO WHAT I SAY WHOOP WHOOP!"]].

** Special mention goes to [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVb-TFsFIZA "It's A Charmed Life"]], set in a BadFuture where he's finally taken over the [[WhereTheHellIsSpringfield Tri-State Area]].

*** And in [[TheMovie The]] [[PhineasAndFerbAcrossThe2ndDimension Movie]] has [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_Ov4eN67lE&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL "A Brand New Best Friend (And It's Me)]] by Both doof and Doof-2

* Notable aversion: Shan Yu, the BigBad of the 1998 animated Disney movie ''{{Mulan}}'' actually does not have a Villain Song at, and therefore he is the ''only'' official Disney Villain (maybe drop the "official" part because [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters ''all'' of the villains are included in that franchise)]] not to have one (much like Mulan being one of the few official [[DisneyPrincess Disney Princesses]] that is neither royalty by birth nor marriage). This is probably for the better since it actually does not suit [[TheQuietOne his personality]] at all and having him sing would totally make him feel out of character.
** On the contrary, Maleficent, the Horned King, Mr. Winky (from TheAdventuresOfIchabodAndMrToad), Madam Medusa and Clayton are a few examples of Disney villains who don't have villain songs either.

* ''Film/HocusPocus'' has two! First is Bette Midler's BigBad Winifred singing the [[CrowningMusicOfAwesome show stopping]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDidHzwYu3E "I Put A Spell On You"]], with bonus for actually hypnotizing everyone within earshot. Second is Sarah Jessica Parker singing the haunting [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GU0liie1qc "Come Little Children"]], bewitching all the children of Salem to their deaths Pied Piper style.
* Maybe this one is a little tricky because is not sung but the actual villain, but [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcdQk7JBPzQ Cruella De Vil]] deserves a mention, being a song dedicated to tell the audience what an evil thing Cruella is. And it's also so damn [[EarWorm catchy!]]

** To compensate for her CutSong in the movie, Yzma gets [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aL1G40piqy0 Yzmopolis]] in ''TheEmperorsNewSchool''. Later, she gets a dueling song in the MusicalEpisode.

** In the stage version, Ursula also gets [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEugSRttip0&feature=related "I Want the Good Times Back"]]. There's also "Sweet Child" for her pet eels. "Poor Unfortunate Souls" gets [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWhLMzdKChI&feature=related a new reprise]] as well.

* Professor Ratigan's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jw0HlB54CIw&feature=related "The World's Greatest Criminal Mind"]] in ''TheGreatMouseDetective''.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smMc2s8q5Yk&feature=related "Temper Temper"]], in the new musical of ''MaryPoppins'', which features the children's toys coming to life, growing larger than the children themselves, and holding the children trial for having lost their tempers -- for, "children who lose their tempers ''[[NightmareFuel lose everything else in the end!]]''"
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YL4V_Hq1hEE&feature=related "Brimstone and Treacle"]], again from the new ''Mary Poppins'', where the Banks' ''second'' nanny, Miss Andrews, explains her philosophy that brimstone and treacle with a good dose of tyranny is the best way to govern children. (Note that there is also a DarkReprise in which Mary comes back, sets Miss Andrews' pet lark free from its cage and there is a showdown between two singing nannies which results in Miss Andrews having a taste of her very own [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sq3Oq0YD8p8&feature=related brimstone and treacle]] as well as being forced into a giant birdcage and sent [[DraggedOffToHell down below]].)

*** What about [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuX56IKqC-I&feature=related Dr. Finkelstien's Song?]]

*** Even better, it's TheJimmyHartVersion of "[[BeautyAndTheBeast Be Our Guest]]"

* Two villains equals two villain songs in ''PetesDragon''. The Goguns had "We Got A Bill Of Sale" and Dr. Terminus gleefully dissected the titular character in "Every Little Piece".

* Near the beginning of ''Disney/TheAristocats'', Edgar the butler can actually be heard singing "Rock A Bye, Baby" while pouring his mistress' sleeping pills into the titular cats' milk so that they will all fall asleep, therefore allowing him to kidnap them all and leave them all for dead in the French countryside. But then a pair of dogs attack him...
* Notable aversion: Shan Yu, the BigBad of the 1998 animated Disney movie ''{{Mulan}}'' actually does not have a Villain Song at, and therefore he is the ''only'' official Disney Villain (maybe drop the "official" part because [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters ''all'' of the villains are included in that franchise)]] not to have one (much like the titular Mulan being one of the few official [[DisneyPrincess Disney Princesses]] that is neither royalty by birth nor marriage). This is probably for the better since it actually does not suit [[TheQuietOne his personality]] at all and having him sing would totally make him feel out of character.

** "Hellfire/Dark fire/Now, gypsy, it's your turn/Choose me or/Your pyre/Be mine or you will burn". Love that song. Especially since it's a DarkReprise of the opening song, "Bells of Notre Dame", and it comes right after Quasimodo sings his own song about how he's fallen in love with Esmerelda (Heaven's Light).

** It was subtle enough that most kids didn't get it until they were older, though the image of Esmeralda in the fireplace and the monks in red cowls were ample HighOctaneNightmareFuel nonetheless.
