History VillainSong / Disney

* Mother Gothel in ''WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}}'' has ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HD_i4hRYd8U Mother Knows Best]]'', which takes on the tone of a demented version of Film/MaryPoppins. This song doesn't gloat about an evil plan, it serves as musical exposition about how Gothel secures her acquired benefits (by gaslighting Rapunzel into obedience). Then there's the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGmGLfBQ32c reprise]].

Then there's the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGmGLfBQ32c reprise]].

* "I'm Number One [You're Number Two]" in ''Film/MuppetsMostWanted'' is a Villain Song Duet between Constantine (criminal mastermind and number one crook) and his associate, Dominic Badguy. It's not only celebrating their intention to pull off a series of heists and frame the Muppets, but Constantine reminding his flunky who's in charge.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZAY-78zhmw "Friends On The Other Side"]] by voodoo villain Dr. Facilier in ''WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog'', which is a delicious slice of evil hammy charlatan showmanship courtesy of Creator/KeithDavid. The first part of the song is a straight-up VillainSong, where Facilier sings about who he is and what he does. The second part is more expositionary, dealing with the lives of the ones he's singing to. The last third is atmospheric, backing the [[ForcefulTransformation transformation]].

Snuff out the light\\

* ''VideoGame/EpicMickey2ThePowerOfTwo'', a musical game, has every musical number focused around the Mad Doctor, who primarily communicates in song. Songs range from MostDefinitelyNotAVillain material (the opening number ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEihtaHLInk Help Me, Help You]]'' and ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObY6zdB_ILM The Mad Doctor's Not Mad]]''), to an IWantSong (''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6FS97Pb4wI I'm Falling Apart]]''), and gradually start moving more into proper villain song territory as the Mad Doctor's true intentions start to emerge (''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Udxjn6sB97A The Fall of Prescott]]'', ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhL7lNPdjaA The Mad Doctor's Diary]]'', and ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLIJv3vYCuw World of Evil]]'')

* In the Creator/DisneyChannel original movie ''Film/GirlVsMonster'', when the villainess, Deimata, possesses a supporting character and takes the stage from Skyler, she turns "Nothing's Gonna Stop Me" into a surprisingly rockin' villain song, ending with her seemingly forgetting that she's not in a musical and reaching into the camera. Unfortunately, we only get to hear a few parts of it.
** Oddly, the lyrics of the main theme, "Fearless", don't seem to be able to decide if they're from the perspective of the hero or the villain. ("''I’m stuck in your head / I’m back, back from the dead / Got you running and scared / I'm fearless...''")

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zece9Bt6bVs "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...
** The first ''WesternAnimation/TheEmperorsNewGroove'' had a VillainSong recorded for it, called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-9d4KvMbSk "Snuff Out the Light"]], but changes in the plot left it without a place in the film. It's still ''really'' good though.
** To compensate for her CutSong in the movie, Yzma gets [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aL1G40piqy0 Yzmopolis]] in ''WesternAnimation/TheEmperorsNewSchool''. Later, she gets a dueling song in the MusicalEpisode.

* ''The Jungle Book Groove Party''[[note]]''Rhythm 'N' Groove'' in some versions[[/note]] has two songs for the BigBadEnsemble that is Kaa and Shere Khan. The former gets "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfLoU7h3nDQ&ab_channel=607 A Mood for Food]]" and the latter gets "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Da9KgfvaSdo&ab_channel=607 Run]]". It's worth noting that they are both {{Suspiciously Similar Song}}s to "Trust In Me" and part of "Tiger Fight", respectively.

-->'''Gaston''': Yes I'm endlessly, wildly resourceful...\\
'''Lefou''': As down to the depths you descend!\\
'''Gaston''': I won't even be mildly remorseful...\\
'''Both''': Just as long as I (you) get what I (you) want in the end!

-->You'll go to pot,\\

--> "When ze bad guy iz zhat happy, it always, always means..." *pulls out tuba* "BAD GUY SONG!!!"

** In addition to "See My Vest", Burns also got a song on the ''The Simpsons Sing the Blues'' album, called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwqA_OMaUes "Look at All Those Idiots"]] (the idiots, of course being Burns' employees at the power plant).

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Encanto}}'''s "We Don't Talk About Bruno" isn't sung by the man himself, but instead by various other members of the Madrigal family and a chorus of villagers who warn Mirabel about how his visions never turn out well. [[spoiler: It's also ultimately a subversion of the VillianSong trope as, when he's properly introduced not long after the number, Bruno turns out to be an eccentric NiceGuy and a case of BadPowersGoodPeople.]]

*** That clip is actually taken from a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zl8gDjaHWWA much longer cut scene]] where Scar decides to take Nala as his queen and informs her through a slightly salsa-like variation of "Be Prepared". After she slaps him mid-song, he decides to banish her from the kingdom. (cue the above reprise). The scene also inspired her song “Shadowlands” in the Broadway version despite not actually being in the play.

** Scar has "I Have A Plan" as he recruits Kiburi and his followers to his growing army of Outlanders.

** Elsa was actually [[WhatCouldHaveBeen originally intended]] to be the villain, and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moSFlvxnbgk Let It Go]]" would have been her villain song (which is why the lyrics sound rather ominous), but when the Lopezes were thinking about how to do it, they came up with a sympathetic angle, turning it more into a WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds song, with Elsa happy about being free of the restrictions on her life. This literally got the whole movie rewritten (with some colorful language from the filmmakers) to turn Elsa into a ClassicalAntiHero {{Deuteragonist}}. In short, "Let It Go" is an AntiVillain song. Creator/IdinaMenzel's showstopping performance didn't hurt, either.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqGL9B_TPTI "Hellfire"]] from ''WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame'', where KnightTemplar Frollo declares in relatively unsubtle terms that he [[ObsessionSong lusts for Esmeralda, and that if she will not have sex with him, he will burn her alive]]. [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids Because this is a family movie.]]

** Karnage and his crew get ''another'' villain song during their appearance in ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017'', praising [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GI1RJ6QVXrQ The Fearful Pirate Don Karnage]].

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Moana}}'' has "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQzAi-a9Bv8 Shiny]]", sung by the vain, treasure-loving giant coconut crab Tamatoa. For extra style points, the second half of the song is sung while he's giving [[DeityOfHumanOrigin Maui]] a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown, with part of it being a musical TheReasonYouSuckSpeech. However, it's worth pointing out that Tamatoa isn't the main villain, that role belongs to Te Ka, who doesn't have a song (in fact, doesn't even speak at all).
