What is the best Disney villain song and why is it Friends O

Hellfire m8

>>94255909
Hellfire says hi.

Friends on the Other Side is a clear second though.

Princess and the Frog was pretty fucking lackluster, honestly. And what the fuck was with the stupid fly? Am I supposed to mourn the death of an incredibly annoying character?

When will Disney do a Hunchback live action and cast Peter Capaldi as Frollo?

I have a real weakness for "I Won't Say I'm in Love", but ironically enough, in the Spanish dub.
I grew up with it, and when comparing it to the original I still like it better.

>>94256395
Facilier was wasted in it. He only had a few scenes, and they were undercut by a very by-the-numbers movie.

Also based Keith David.

>>94256688
Shiny is good but needs the movie scene to sell it. Friends on the other side is just plain good.

>>94255909
Hellfire is cool but I agree with this man right here.

>>94255991
God the visuals in this movie were fucking phenomenal.

The musical version is better in my opinion though, it just feels stronger, both his voice and the instrumentals

>>94256681
Its a fun and oddly arousing song but it doesnt even break top 10

>>94256735
Holy shit is that Mandy Patinkin?

>>94256395

I'm just annoyed that the two main humans (who are both pretty hot) were frogs for almost the entire movie. I mean I'm not fond of humans turning into animals (for 90% of the movie) in general, but frogs in particular are really uninteresting (unless drawn realistically).

But yeah I was more interested in/cared more about the human characters.

Not to say that animal characters aren't as interesting; it was just the ones in TPATF were very dull.

Maybe they aren't eligible for an objective "best" tier, but I've always had a soft spot for Ratigan's songs. They easily drive home the emphasis on the "villain" part better than any others in the category by far, and not to mention Vincent Price could make a phone book sound eerily captivating.

I want to fuck Keith David's voice.

>>94257480
Not too bad, but pretty noticeable since the song repeats words a lot.

>>94257496
Yeah it's been poisoned by the live action movie and Gaston being the second worst song in it.

>>94256642
Oh, it's great. But by design it can't really stand on its own.

Too bad Jafar had to wait until the sequel for a proper song.

>>94257668
What, the word savages? If the song that has "Here's what you get when races are diverse" and drumming up straight murder was toned down, I'm wondering what the hell was in the unbutchered version.

>>94256880
1. Hellfire
2. Friends on the Other Side

The Undeniable Top 5 Disney Villain Songs:
1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3NoDEu7kpg

3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJv2Mugm2RI

5. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=374xW4zZbZA

>>94258076
I'm more bothered by the changed version, of at least first line. Because we've seen segregation and discrimination, and demonstrations against that discrimination being met with the lyrics in the changed version. I can get why the original seems bad, but with historical hindsight, the changed version seems worse.

>>94258270

I think people were just bothered by "redskin" specifically since it's considered an epithet. The first line did show up in the most recent anniversary soundtrack version.

>>94257773
But in a way that's why it's great, and encapsulates why Jafar is a good villain. It took a really great, loud, heroic song meant to build Aladdin up and make him look good, and twisted it into a humiliating display that showed Jafar's triumph.

Story wise it hits a perfect note, not to mention it's catchy.

>>94258451
>Snuff Out the Light
I liked the final version of ENG that we got, but this song makes me wonder what could have been.

>>94255909

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYyO44U2BQ4

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJGqxf86cZs

"You're Only Second Rate" and "My Lullaby" from the straight-to-video sequels to Aladdin and Lullaby wouldn't make my top five list, but they're pretty good songs that no one remembers.

My top five would be

1. Poor Unfortunate Souls
2. Gaston
3. Friends on the other side
4. Hellfire
5. Be Prepared

Friends on the Other Side might be higher on the list if I hadn't heard it ten billion times when the movie came out. Hellfire is so different from other Disney villain songs I have trouble ranking it.

>>94256880

This Maleficent looks way too silly.

>>94258492

I get why they didn't want a racial slur in a Disney movie (and why the "they cut off your ears if they don't like your face" from Arabian Nights got changed), but I kind of don't like the villain explicitly being against racial diversity in those exact words. Seems a little on the nose.

>>94258076
>Original line was "Their whole disgusting race is like a curse."

I remember this.

>Original line was "Dirty redskin devils."

Not sure if I remember that.

Dark of the Night I feel has really good vocals but the sheer goofiness of the visuals kinda ruins any menace Rasputin has. More stuff like the green devils coming from the phylactery and less dancing bugs probably would have been cool.

I know it's not cool to say anything positive about Frozen, but Disney actually made a love song into a stealth villain song. I fucking love that.

>>94265452
Lyrically it's trash.

>>94266155
>stealth villain song
Explain

>>94266282
It takes on a more evil meaning after you've seen the movie and know how things turn out. Hans flat out states his intentions and you wouldn't get that the first time.

>>94266282

>I've found my place
>say goodbye to the pain of the past
>we don't have to feel it anymore
>love is an open door
>"I have 12 brothers btw"

the song is all about Hans' Machiavellian plan to steal the throne and the danger of marrying a literal stranger

>>94266200
I can't say you're wrong (it was a plot device song) but come on: rhyming demigod with decapod was a little clever.

>>94266453
Strange. I always thought Let it Go was the stealth villain song in Frozen. It's pensive and basically just rambling about running away from consequence and responsibility.

>>94266623
And then it's immediately ruined by the stupid little "Look it up!"
Also he's only a nonapod since Maui ripped off one of his legs, but that's just me being pedantic.

The unfortunate reality of Friends On The Other Side is that it's terribly structured. Half the song is spent on the shitty card section, with some of the most boring, predictable lyrics that mostly just tell us what we already know anyway.

Like.. did you really need 4 lines to say "careful what you wish for"? Like we get it, this deal probably won't work out for him too well..

Also kind of triggers me that he didn't even agree to anything. The witchdoctor guy just asks him to shake his hand after telling him a bunch of stuff he sees in his future. Doesn't say he's making and kind of deal or going to do anything for him..

Kind of hated this film because the whole thing felt lazy and needed more work in almost every aspect. A shame too because it effectively killed 2d animation at disney forever.

>villain song is just the villain and his minions singing about how great he is
These are my favorite villain songs.

Anyone else got some good Anti-Hero songs?

>>94273012
They'd have to change the plot of the move to something more serious aka the original plot.

1. Poor Unfortunate Souls
2. Savages
3. Hellfire
4. Friends on the Other Side
5. Oogie Boogie

Villains always get the best songs. This is a fact.

>>94277548
Fuck you right back for misunderstanding my post and just being a general pleb.

I agree, "You've Got A Friend In Me" is great. But notice: it has no obligation to advance the story. It acts as underscore to an unrelated visual sequence (only related emotionally). The same thing goes with all the songs in the movie. The little bit of actual storytelling is kinda used in a few stanzas of "I Will Go Sailing No More."
>But no it can't be true
>I could fly if I wanted to
>Like a bird in the sky if I believe I can fly
>why I'd fly
...
>Clearly, I will go sailing, no more
This is so simple and on the nose, it ONLY works because it is NON-DIAGETIC. The story is being told visually; the song is unnecessary, so even in this instance it's acting as underscore. And that's why it gets away with it -- if it was a musical and Buzz actually sang those words himself, it'd be a fucking cringe.

As I said, Newman is a SONGWRITER, writing that kinda shit is his bread and butter. He is not a LIBRETTIST. Songs in musicals are functionally different: they're character monologues/dialogues, an essential part of a greater story. The audience's attention is vastly more focused on each stanza than in almost any other context. That's why songwriters like Elton John and Randy Newman had so much trouble with their Disney assignments -- they're unaccustomed to packing their songs with the information and density required for musical theater storytelling.

>>94277951
Oh shit. I forgot how catchy this one is

>>94277530
This guy gets it. The songs in this movie are sometimes musically cool, but are largely a waste of time. That's reason #1 why the movie failed.

>>94276768

Keith David though. It's the whole reason people like the song.

>>94258270
desu I think "shrieking" fits the rhythm of the line better. Redskin slows down the beat just a tad.

Frollo should have just asked Esmerelda out to dinner or something, Christ that's a lot of intensity to have over a boner for a gypsy girl.

Elton John doesn't even write lyrics

>>94278455
This just reminds me how much better the localized version was here.
It has lines like (not necessarily rhyming here because I don't feel like properly translating it into a song, so it will just be literal)
>I flew upon moon beams
>Across the shining sky
>Up I rose with greatest ease
>For the dream bestows us wings
>My silver ship will never again fly on the path of light
>What awaits us after the dreams?

>But no! For the sky awaits me
>Yes, I hear the distance call
>My arms fly me to the sky
>My faith's wings as my aid
>My soul flies!

And then the last line as he's broken on the ground:
>Is there life after the dreams?

>>94283358
Tim Rice wrote the final lyrics, but it wasn't an equal partnership. Elton still spearheaded the project.

Aladdin & The King of Thieves was really good for a direct to DVD movie

>>94284798
And the worst part is that he can't do anything about it, lest he risk going blind or whatever the prevailing rumor was about jacking off.

>>94285232
King of Thieves was the finale for Aladdin. They even kissed Robin Williams' ass to get him back. I dunno what the budget was, but it's clear that a lot more money went into it than Return of Jafar (which was basically a glorified pilot for the tv series).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP8QdFttugg

This was a classic. Its great because it shows how much history him and the main character, Basil, have with each other. This is just a small section of their adventures.

>>94285232
>DVD
I've never watched these. The animation is sometimes surprisingly good considering.

>>94259058
yup "dirty red skinned devils" was part of the song originally
I got the song on itunes, and it's the orignal for the most part, has the disgusting race and lets go kill a few men parts still in it

but the dirty red skinned devils was changed, you can clearly tell when they spliced out for "dirty shrieking devils"
>>94258076
>>94257775

1 extra part was changed when Ratcliff shouts "lets go kill a few men!" to one of the other main settler characters shouts "let's go get them men!"
and it sounds pretty shit and weak

>>94285774
should watch it, wasn't bad man and they brought back Robin Willaims for the Genie

I came across this word and immediately thought "Oh, what's this pretentious film student bullshit he's on about", but then actually looked the word up, read Wikipedia's entry on diagesis in music, and now am all the wiser for it. Just thought you should know that you taught a random anon something today.

Pocahontas is criminally underrated and I will fight IRL anyone who thinks otherwise

>>94283358
There was a period (basically all through the 80's) when Elton John no longer worked with Bernie Taupin and *did* in fact write his own lyrics.
