One of my favorite little tidbits about "This Day" is that while both Cadence and her doppleganger are singing the same melody, their chords and tones differentiate in relationship with the dominant. Princess Cadence is singing in a pattern often referred to as a "True Cadence" while Queen Chrysalis is singing....a False Cadence. Someone worked very hard on a hidden joke that about a dozen people would actually get.
This day Aria is even more clever than you went into. Whun of the things that I learned watching reviews of it, is that during the stanzas were chrysalises singing, the music is arranged in what is called a "deceptive cadence" . When cadence is singing, the music is arranged in what is called a " true cadence"
Spinel swinging her scythe is one of those moments in a show where no matter how many times I see it, I can't help but rewind to watch it again at least a half dozen times. The animation is just so fucking clean...
Footage was at least shown. But it is kinda of a disappointment but i can also see from josh’s pov. 1: he probably wanted only one song sang by neil patrick harris. 2: almost ALL of the songs in the episode in question would be worthy of this list because they were all villain songs. Each one used patrick’s voice so well and utilized the show’s signature bombastic comic book hero soundtrack to his advantage. It is worthy of the list but picking just one would be too hard because they are all so damn good.
Meanwhile, I'm not surprised that the Jim'll Fix It theme song wasn't mentioned. Between the fact that it's a real-life villain's bait song, and the scandal a few years back involving You-Know-Glue...
Yeah, when I first heard that explanation from Butch about the ghosts in Danny Phantom, the only thing I had to say was "Butch, does the name Sidney Poindexter mean anything to you?"
Personally one of my all time favorite villain songs. Not only is it just a bop but actually does a great job of hinting and foreshadowing Spinels backstory. It's an amazing song through and through.
@@rhymenoceros3303 Also, Rubies (pink/red diamonds) and Spinel gemstones used to be considered the same thing, and grow together. Makes the "friendship" aspect more heartbreaking if you think about it.
What really clinches Crossing The Line for me is that Cassandra's voice actress Eden Espinosa played Elphaba in Wicked a few times. Her voice is powerful and this song is basically Cassandra's "Defying Gravity" but for Tangled.
I did not know. I did know that Varian’s voice actor, Jeremy Jordan did a bunch of musicals. I think Eden Espinosa having played Elphaba is a bit ironic.
i love "Crossing the line" so much. the other villain songs just dont hit as well, although "Ready As I'll Ever Be" Is really good for Varians song. I loved the show so much and i am happy they gave both Cassandra and Varian an arc. Its almost unexpected when you meet them both :)
The moment I saw “Ready as I’ll ever be” I thought it was gonna be in here. I love varians villain arc and I was super exited. Crossing the line is also a great song.
*Josh describing Crossing the Line* So let me get this straight: not only is Tangled Adventure actually good with animation THAT gorgeous, not only does it have a friend-turned-enemy plotline which I love, but it has this as an incredible villain song... And I HAVEN'T WATCHED IT? Sometimes my growing Disney apathy screws me over.
"Ready as I'll ever be" is way better than "Crossing the line" tonally to the scenes they take place in. "Crossing the line" experiences some tonal whiplash to what literally just happened while "Ready as I'll ever be" fits the build up of the scene before it
fun fact in regards to Haman (from someone who is half Jewish & half Christian) Josh is right that Haman's name getting booed is tradition, but it's not just booing. in the synagogue when telling the story of Esther, any time Haman's name is even mentioned, people use noise makers, instruments, their feet, & even their voices to block out his name (more-so for the children cuz it's actually kinda funny). he really was that bad of a guy. also, I'm guessing the people behind Veggietales didn't give him his triangular hat is because they didn't really know how to make it work, but that's just my guess
I completely forgot about that line from Doctor Who. He may not have been the longest Doctor, but he was an amazing one to introduce new fans to who the Doctor was.
And I wonder if it could have been (on a meta level) directed at Jimmy Savile by someone who knew his sordid secret* but could not prove. And the _Jim'll Fix It_ theme tunes can be ear-wormy villain songs as well. * Imagine a kid-fiddler running a wish-fulfillment show for children. And Savile had EVERYONE in authority fooled.
23:46 - 27:03 I want to add something to Haman’s Song that I think you should’ve mentioned. Throughout the song, the common lyric is “There are those who can’t be trusted”. Haman (and the king joining along) says this about the Jews throughout the song until the end where a chorus ends the song with that line. The chorus sings it while Haman walks away in triumph, to emphasize that Haman is the one who is truly untrustworthy, due to manipulating his king.
A little shocked that: 1) The Music Meister from “Batman: the Beace and the Bold” didn’t show up on the list. 2) Sweet from “Buffy TVS” and his song didn’t make the list.
I’m hoping to see Dr. Doofenshmirtz somewhere here Edit: I would be disappointed, but you mentioned I’m The Bad Guy from WoY. I’d say that’s a fair trade.
I personally thought he should have used either OWCA is Going Down or My Nemesis. The former has greater set-up and advances the plot more, but the latter is a short but excellent summary of the friendly rivalry between Perry and Doof.
@@emberfist8347 firebrand needs to play skylanders on the channel I love that game so good plus my favourite skylander is flashwing cause she's voiced by Tara strong aka twilight sparkle from mlp fim
Hot take, I think this song is BETTER than the song it's parodying, that being the villain song of the evil plant from Little Shop of Horrors... What? I'm a sucker for violin. I mean, that minor key mixed with the upbeat, slapping, swinging tempo really meshes well as a villain song since it really gives off this disturbingly otherworldly vibe. Fitting since the villain is ALSO a space alien...hungry for brains, as ya do. ;3
As a black man, I highly agree with the "Minorities" song's placement on this list and I respect that you put it as a VILLAIN song cause Cartman is 100% evil
A song in a similar vein to "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet" from _My Little Pony 'n Friends_ (in the scene from "The Ghost of Paradise Estate" where Squirk is reveling in his wanton cruelty to everyone and everything crossing his path).
I wish it lasted longer I didn't watch it too much but when I did catch it I was either laughing or confused so it's a perfect show and has my type of humour
I'd have put "Other Friends" higher. It's legit one of my favorite songs, and Spinel is one of my favorite villains of all time. But yeah, the length is a good enough reason to keep it low, I guess..... Also you should've given "Ready As I'll Ever Be" at LEAST an honorable mention, I mean c'mon, that song's iconic.....
@@necrozmaIV From Tangled The Series. It's an amazing song, altho.....When I made this post, I thought of it as a villain song, since....well, the villain sings in it, but actually, it's more of an ensemble song. The heroes sing in it too, not just the villain, so now that I think of it, I'm not sure how eligible it was for this video. The reason I thought of it as a villain song is because it takes place as the villain's setting his plan into motion, and the heroes are singing about stopping him, but no, I think it's only half a villain song at most. Still a great song tho
YES YES YES YES God thank you Josh for acknowledging Rapunzel’s Tangled Adventure the show is a masterpiece and I love seeing more people appreciate it And thank you for the awesome list as always 🙏
My only gripe with Tangled the Series is a dealbreaker - WHY DID CASSANDRA GET AWAY SCOT FREE? I don't think I'll be able to watch the show ever again.
I find your analysis of the Cassandra song super interesting. I saw a video saying something similar, but they thought it didn't work because it did not feel like a villain song. I still liked it, but I saw their point. I never thought of the deconstruction and subversion of a Princess song as an intentional angle and I really like that analysis.
Never understood why people liked the songs in the show. They were simple and okay but not that good compared to other shows songs. Then I heard the best day aria in a siivagunner rip and I understood: I had simply heard the worst songs. Some songs are absolute fucking fire.
My honorable mentions: Agatha All Along (Wandavision) The first villain song of the MCU and also the best. Alastor’s Reprise (Hazbin Hotel) The Roaring 20’s were so catchy. Bad Boy/Go Away (The Garfield Show) Dirk Dinkum is not what you’d call a people person. The Black Four (Kimba The White Lion) It may only be in Japanese be it’s still pretty catchy for a song about four evil panthers. Blow My Stack (The Looney Tunes Show) Proof that Yosemite Sam has always been a ticking time bomb. Brains! (Billy And Mandy) Sung by a brain eating Audrey 2 knockoff and featuring a Thriller homage. Cala Maria’s Song (The Cuphead Show) The Devil and King Dice have some jazzy numbers, make no mistake, but I had to give this one to the giant operatic fish lady. Da Pixie Rap (Fairly Odd Parents) Anyone who remembers School's Out!: The Musical remembers this song. Do The Koopa (The Adventures Of Super Mario Bros 3) If you don’t Do The Koopa, then you’re a party poopa. The Duchess I Must Be (The Loud House Movie) All this just for some peace and quiet? Man, that’s evil. Every Dr Doofenshmirtz Song (Phineas And Ferb) If I had a nickel for every time Doof had a musical number in this series... well, I wouldn't know what to do with that much money! Glomtales (Ducktale 2017) Villainous parody of the main theme sung by Scrooges bitter rival. Ha Cha Cha (Mickey Mouse Clubhouse) Mortimer Mouse is a massive jerk, even in the preschool shows. Hail to the Legion of Pirate Villains (Jake And The Neverland Pirates) You mean to tell me that there are evil pirates in Neverland other than Captain Hook? I’m gobsmacked! High to Be Loathed (The Simpsons) In the immortal words of Mr Burns, "Excellent." I'm Not Very Nice (The 7D) Kelly Osbourne at her finest and meanest. I'm The Music Meister (Batman The Brave And The Bold) "Ah, the Music Meister, I still can't get his songs out of my head." It's Gonna Get Weird (Gravity Falls) The Bill Cipher song that never was. Jekyll Jekyll Hyde (Arthur) While this is technically a dream, Hyde Brain is still the villain of the song, therefore it counts. The Man In Gauze (Courage The Cowardly Dog) Return the slab or suffer his curse. Meticulous Analysis of History (Pinky And The Brain) Love the Gilbert and Sullivan vibe they're going for here. Naughty Number Nine (Schoolhouse Rock) The multiples of 9 sung from the perspective of a gangster cat. The Pie Who Loved Me (Evil Con Carne) This entire musical episode is about Hector trying to take over the world via pie. Plankton's Song (Spongebob Squarepants) Plankton sings about how he plans to conquer Atlantis. Porpoise Power Ballad (Penguins Of Madagascar) Neil Patrick Harris as an evil dolphin singing to a possessed MP3 player, not bad. Rise Of The Vermillion (Lego Ninjago) Snakes, why did it have to be snakes? Robot Hell (Futurama) What did poor Bender ever do to deserve this? Say My Name (Plankton The Movie) It’s pretty ironic that despite this movie being about Plankton, it’s his wife that has the best villain song in the whole thing. (Also since the movie was leaked, I recommend waiting for the official release to include it in a villains song list.) Tonight We Strike (The Lion Guard) The only song able to give Be Prepared a worthy opponent. Townsville's Going Down! (Powerpuff Girls) Why was this episode banned again? Oh right, Christ-like imagery and strobing effects. Victory’s Mine At Last (Penn Zero: Part Time Hero) Who knew that Alfred Molina could sing so well. We’re The Gremlins (Goodie The Gremlin) A bit of a deep cut, I know, but where else are you gonna find a villain song in a Noveltoons cartoon. When You're Mine (DC Superhero Girls) If you're gonna brainwash Supergirl with red kryptonite, might as well it in song. You Wouldn't Want To Mess With Me (Little Mermaid Animated Series) Between this and Poor Unfortunate Souls, Ursula has quite the track record when it comes to musical talent. Yzmapolis (Emperors New School) What would happen if Kuzco never became emperor? You’d get this amazing song of course.
@@Pixal2014 I actually never heard that song since I don’t usually follow the newer seasons of the Ninjago cartoon. Edit: I just listened to it and it sounds pretty good. Thanks for the recommendation.
Okay, I knew "This Day Aria" would probably on here somewhere, but it being at Number 1 was a bit of a surprise to me, but I suppose it really shouldn't have been. Regardless I am happy to see more of Brony Josh, I hope this is a sign that after about year or so We're finally getting more reviews over at FOB Equestria! I really hope so! ^^ Or maybe I'm just taking 2 cameos too seriously. ;)
I’ll be happy if either We are Number One or Master of Disguise (Both from Robbie Rotten) make it onto the list. Edit: Oh well. You win some, you lose some.
Honorable Mentions: *Any Dr. Doofenshmirtz Song - Phineas and Ferb *Shame - Big Mouth *Da Pixie Rap - The Fairly Oddparents *Some Sunny Day - Gravity Falls -So what if it's a short song? It's still a fun little diddy from Bill Cipher. *The Fearful Pirate Don Karnage - Ducktales (2017) -A character from another Disney Afternoon cartoon made his grand return known with this little diddy. *Music Meister - Batman The Brave and The Bold *See my Vest - The Simpsons - Though to be fair, any song with Mr. Burns could be a contender. Like "High to be Loathed" which had shadow puppets of other villains including Chucky, Megatron, Eric Cartman and Voldemort.
Quick elaboration the song Bill Cipher is a snippet of an old WWII song called We’ll Meet Again, it’s been used in stuff like Dr. Strangelove which makes sense in the context of Weirdmageddon since that movie is about the prelude to an apocalypse so to speak
The fact you put songs from shows like Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and the Tangled series PLUS know about Jewish traditions like booing Haman and the triangle hamantaschen cookies being based on his hat really shows how much research went into this video. Major kudos, Scorcher!
@@williamcrowe2576 You mean an actual good song compared to a meme and a half? I mean, god bless the guy, but honestly Robbie is nothing compared to the rest of the list.
Looking back on VeggieTales, I can really tell. They made the guards on the walls of Jericho French Peas as a reference to Monty Python, and they had an entire episode dedicated to referencing Star Trek.
Holy smokes, that’s a Bibleman song in the transitions. My respect for you has increased a thousand fold, Mr Scorcher. I loved those shows growing up, and, yes, the villains were, ironically, part of the fun. Prince of pride and doctor fear were pretty impressive given what they had to work with.
@@mysticalkeyblade759 That episode was called "Conquering the Wrath of Rage", and the song was called "Livin' La Furiosa" sung by the villain, El Furioso. Spicy salsa!
The fact that This Day Aria is still one of the best songs from the show, if not arguably the best, is what made it so genius for Tridashie to make a YTP of it, even with the YTP's lyrics being based around Among Us jokes.
Actually, the cookies are not based on Haman's hat, but rather they are based on his ears. The reason is that Haman was planning to execute Mordehai by hanging him off a tall tree by his ears, and Karmatically that's how he himself was executed in the end when his plot was revealed - even the tree Haman was planning to use for Mordehai was the same one they used to hang him.
I'm surprised to see you talking about villain songs in Veggietales without mentioning "Oh No What We Gonna Do." That song really gets stuck in your head. Great video by the way.
Lazy Twon had a lot of great songs, personal favorite the Pirate episode and I just lost to irony of the guy who want's people to be lazy is more active then the hero. Rest In Peace, we shall never forget your greatness.
I love “What’s The Use Of Feeling Blue?” cause of the double meaning. It could be heard as Yellow asking Blue about what’s the use of feeling at all or it could be heard as what’s the use of feeling sad when there are other things to focus on.
Called it that this was the next list! Also glad that Other Friends is on it. A friend of mine who’s not even a big SU fan made a BATIM au parody of it. That shows how good it is.
I just realized what Ember’s show looked familiar… apparently it reminds me of “welcome to the show” which only from what I’ve seen from these few clips kinda look similar
Okay, so while I liked the choice for Rapuzel's Tangled Adventure, I feel like Nothing Left To Lose was a better song since it was a duet between the current villain and someone who recently was redeemed after becoming a villain and the risks of revenge.
Using "Livin' La Furiosa" as a transition is brilliant. If there's one thing I miss about Bibleman, it's the villain songs of Brian Lemmons. I'll never understand why they got dubbed over for the DVD releases.
This day aria is really freaking good. I also love that it's pretty much a duet between main antagonist of season 2 and one of mlp's better side characters. Though I'll be honest, the Queen was the better of the two in the song
Speaking of NPH he did a lot of work for animated show musical episodes like Dr. Blowhole in Penguins of Madagascar and the Music Meister in Batman:The Brave and the Bold.
And he neglected to mention the Myst shout-out with the chandelier, or the musical puns with "deceptive" and "authentic" cadences in the accompaniment.
1. Other friends, male rock cover. Spinel's song was made for it and I love it. 3. Honestly I like 'Ready as I'lll Ever be' More than the one you chose.
Hey Josh, I grew up watching Veggietales too and I still remember it fondly. I liked all of the ones I watched but some particular favorites of mine are Daniel and the lion’s den, Dave and the Giant Pickle, Esther… The Girl Who Became Queen, Minnesota Cuke, Larryboy, the western bible stories, Jonah and the Pirates who don’t do anything. Please tell me what your favorites are!
My thoughts on what'll be included *We Are Number One (Lazy Town): hammy performance by such an entertaining and goofy villain (R.I.P. Stefan Karl) *It Was Agetha All Along (WandaVision): Munsters-styled villain song after the twist, yes please *Other Friends or Drift Away (Steven Universe): I couldn't decide which is better because Spinel is a great tragic villain *A Better Way to be Bad (My Little Pony): the last villain song of Gen 4 *Let the Pun Fit the Crime or I'm The Bad Guy (Wander Over Yonder): one tune perfectly explains why Lord Dominator is so deliciously evil, and the other has Weird Al Yankovic *Waiting in The Wings (Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure): Dang does Cass have some good pipes, just like her mother, Gothel *Basically any song by Dr. Doofenshmirtz (Phineas and Ferb): I literally couldn't choose one, they're all too catchy *Master of Your Fate (Teen Titans): Catchy, fits with the villain, and those last words were just chilling from Tom Kenny Drives Us Bat (Batman: The Brave and The Bold): Neil Patrick Harris still has great pipes, and it fits as the anthem for people tired of Batman for a while
HECK YEAH a Tangled song made the top 3! I loved Tangled the series, the songs were amazing and I absolutely adored the characters. There aren't many villain songs in the series but the one you picked is an absolute banger! And also I did NOT expect to see Veggietales on this list O.o
I agree with you about Crossing The Line. I personally always saw it as the song former villains would sing as they leave their old group behind like Jinx from Teen Titans, especially when you take the cut lyrics into account.
If you do a sequel to this, Josh, you MUST add "Stayed Gone" from Hazbin Hotel. The back and forth between Vox and Alastor is great and how Alastor throws back Vox's words at him in the end is chilling.
Im surprised you went with Crossing the Line rather than Ready As Ill Ever Be, since that tends to be the more well loved villain song from the series.
Of all of the songs you use for the transition, you picked Bibleman's La Furiousa...thank you. That show was so cheesy yet I can't help but have a good opinion of it.
@@graceglo6638 i mean yeah but one is a clear spiral into villain territory but not fully there yet, (and before you say it i know she literally holds someone at knifepoint, but it's played for comedy. Really dark comedy but comedy nonetheless. Where as in villain of my own story, a very silly over the top song, you get the sense that it somehow takes itself more seriously than I'm a good person.) And then in nothing is ever anyone's fault it's more a parody than anything else. I mean right after that song Rebecca denies the message of the song and says "i have issues but that doesn't excuse my actions". Idk that's just how i see it. Still love those songs tho, i just disagree that they're villain songs
Note: this day from MLPFiM used a "deceptive cadence", a technical term refers to music. That's the real reason this does not belong on any list for it transcends the masses.
Alot of good ones missed ive seen from comments and remembered 1.Any dr doof song 2. Music meister (Batman brave and the bold) 3. Ready as I'll ever be (Tangled series) 4. We are number one (Why is it only a honorable mention 5. Oh no what we gonna do (veggietales) 6. Its about to get weird (bill cipher gravity falls)
See Robbie Rotten in thumbnail only for it to be an honorable mention:
"You raised my hope and dashed them quite expertly sir, bravo!"
Yep, he had some good ones too. He was my husband and my favorite character on the kid’s shows during the toddler years. It hit in the heart when Robbie’s actor passed.

The chorus sings it while Haman walks away in triumph, to emphasize that Haman is the one who is truly untrustworthy, due to manipulating his king.
"Why cant the live Action remakes be a fraction of this good?!"
Preach, Brother
They aren't interested in being good movies, but rather woke propaganda.
I would kindly like to point you to a movie called aldan
To be fair, Cruella got a lot of good reviews
Least Jungle book and 101 Dalmations was good. But I agree this rate most of the Live action remakes are so freaking boring
This is why I'm kinda glade that Atlantis: The Lost Empire hasn't been made into a live action. Because it is a golden movie.
A little shocked that:
1) The Music Meister from “Batman: the Beace and the Bold” didn’t show up on the list.
2) Sweet from “Buffy TVS” and his song didn’t make the list.
THANK YOU! That entire EPISODE is a great Villain song, I can’t even pick one from the episode to say is the best
The Beace
Sweet Transvestite made the honorable mention on his MOVIE list because it was in a movie.
I’m hoping to see Dr. Doofenshmirtz somewhere here
Edit: I would be disappointed, but you mentioned I’m The Bad Guy from WoY. I’d say that’s a fair trade.
I personally thought he should have used either OWCA is Going Down or My Nemesis. The former has greater set-up and advances the plot more, but the latter is a short but excellent summary of the friendly rivalry between Perry and Doof.
If they put doof in here then it would have been top 10 doof songs.
@@emberfist8347 firebrand needs to play skylanders on the channel I love that game so good plus my favourite skylander is flashwing cause she's voiced by Tara strong aka twilight sparkle from mlp fim
Listens to Remember as a kid: Yeah, this is alright.
Listens to Remember as an adult: ... Wait, WHAT?
A little sad that "Brains" from Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy wasn't anywhere on this list. But, these songs were all amazing in their own right.
That's the first song I thought about too
That’s the song I thought of. It’s probably the most catchy villain song
I know!! Voltaire is an Amazing song writer.
Ikr 😭
Hot take, I think this song is BETTER than the song it's parodying, that being the villain song of the evil plant from Little Shop of Horrors... What? I'm a sucker for violin. I mean, that minor key mixed with the upbeat, slapping, swinging tempo really meshes well as a villain song since it really gives off this disturbingly otherworldly vibe. Fitting since the villain is ALSO a space alien...hungry for brains, as ya do. ;3
I’m kinda glad “Come Wayward Souls” from Over the Garden Wall was at least an Honorable Mention
Aw man. Now I'm sad Bill Cipher's deleted song, "Its gonna get weird" didn't make it on here.
Same here
Sadly, it's not a canon song. It's only on the soundtrack, not in the show :/
@@MakutaYnot dose not matter he included biggering that is a cut song
Ye I feel the exact same
Same
Oh god, please do a "Jim Henson" themed villain song list. There are a lot of songs that weren't on the other lists.
As a black man, I highly agree with the "Minorities" song's placement on this list and I respect that you put it as a VILLAIN song cause Cartman is 100% evil
Sadly a portion of people find Cartman has more of the hero and find that minority song to be relatable
I mean, murdering a classmate's parents and turning them into chili which is then forcefed to said classmate is a thing he did.
@@HenshinFanatic Exactly
@@starmaker75 And all of them can go straight to hell
No wonder they don't respect his "athoratai".
Wander Over Yonder pops up.
Me: “I’m the Bad Guy” hell yeah!
I loved Wander over Yonder such a under apreciated show.
A song in a similar vein to "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet" from _My Little Pony 'n Friends_ (in the scene from "The Ghost of Paradise Estate" where Squirk is reveling in his wanton cruelty to everyone and everything crossing his path).
I wish it lasted longer I didn't watch it too much but when I did catch it I was either laughing or confused so it's a perfect show and has my type of humour
Really hope that there’ll be at least 1 Phineas and Ferb song on here.
I'm pretty sure he'll make a rule about only having one song per show, because if he didn't the whole list could be filled with songs from that show.
There are hundreds, surely one makes the list
Sadly, none made it. IT DIDN'T EVEN MAKE THE HONORABLE MENTIONS!
@@dragonknight951 probably the biggest disappointment of the list
I’m sorry bro
I'd have put "Other Friends" higher. It's legit one of my favorite songs, and Spinel is one of my favorite villains of all time. But yeah, the length is a good enough reason to keep it low, I guess.....
Also you should've given "Ready As I'll Ever Be" at LEAST an honorable mention, I mean c'mon, that song's iconic.....
Ready As I'll Ever Be, which show or cartoon is that on? and out of curiosity, who sang it?
No really, where is that from?
@@necrozmaIV From Tangled The Series. It's an amazing song, altho.....When I made this post, I thought of it as a villain song, since....well, the villain sings in it, but actually, it's more of an ensemble song. The heroes sing in it too, not just the villain, so now that I think of it, I'm not sure how eligible it was for this video. The reason I thought of it as a villain song is because it takes place as the villain's setting his plan into motion, and the heroes are singing about stopping him, but no, I think it's only half a villain song at most. Still a great song tho
I would like for "How bad can I be" to become a meme on this channel how "It was his mistake" is on Shaffrillas channel
The way the pauper's face lit up, though.
I feel so validated by seeing “brand new day“ and „I’m the villain in my own story“ on this list
YES YES YES YES
God thank you Josh for acknowledging Rapunzel’s Tangled Adventure the show is a masterpiece and I love seeing more people appreciate it
And thank you for the awesome list as always 🙏
I'd never heard of it but this made me wanna watch it.
@@X-35173 if you have Disney+, all 3 seasons and the pilot movie are on there
Booo! No Varian!!! (Half joking, of course)
My only gripe with Tangled the Series is a dealbreaker - WHY DID CASSANDRA GET AWAY SCOT FREE? I don't think I'll be able to watch the show ever again.
@@erichfiedler1481 finished the season 3 finale today. SS+ Tier dhow.
I find your analysis of the Cassandra song super interesting. I saw a video saying something similar, but they thought it didn't work because it did not feel like a villain song. I still liked it, but I saw their point. I never thought of the deconstruction and subversion of a Princess song as an intentional angle and I really like that analysis.
Ok look, i fell out of my little pony YEARS ago, but damn, this day Aria i can never forget, its that powerful
It's actually what got me into the series back in...
...2012.
Oh my God.
To this day, if this day aria started playing, I would drop everything a vibe. Even in front of people who dont know that I'm in love with mlp
Never understood why people liked the songs in the show. They were simple and okay but not that good compared to other shows songs. Then I heard the best day aria in a siivagunner rip and I understood: I had simply heard the worst songs. Some songs are absolute fucking fire.
My honorable mentions:
Agatha All Along (Wandavision)
The first villain song of the MCU and also the best.
Alastor’s Reprise (Hazbin Hotel)
The Roaring 20’s were so catchy.
Bad Boy/Go Away (The Garfield Show)
Dirk Dinkum is not what you’d call a people person.
The Black Four (Kimba The White Lion)
It may only be in Japanese be it’s still pretty catchy for a song about four evil panthers.
Blow My Stack (The Looney Tunes Show)
Proof that Yosemite Sam has always been a ticking time bomb.
Brains! (Billy And Mandy)
Sung by a brain eating Audrey 2 knockoff and featuring a Thriller homage.
Cala Maria’s Song (The Cuphead Show)
The Devil and King Dice have some jazzy numbers, make no mistake, but I had to give this one to the giant operatic fish lady.
Da Pixie Rap (Fairly Odd Parents)
Anyone who remembers School's Out!: The Musical remembers this song.
Do The Koopa (The Adventures Of Super Mario Bros 3)
If you don’t Do The Koopa, then you’re a party poopa.
The Duchess I Must Be (The Loud House Movie)
All this just for some peace and quiet? Man, that’s evil.
Every Dr Doofenshmirtz Song (Phineas And Ferb)
If I had a nickel for every time Doof had a musical number in this series... well, I wouldn't know what to do with that much money!
Glomtales (Ducktale 2017)
Villainous parody of the main theme sung by Scrooges bitter rival.
Ha Cha Cha (Mickey Mouse Clubhouse)
Mortimer Mouse is a massive jerk, even in the preschool shows.
Hail to the Legion of Pirate Villains (Jake And The Neverland Pirates)
You mean to tell me that there are evil pirates in Neverland other than Captain Hook? I’m gobsmacked!
High to Be Loathed (The Simpsons)
In the immortal words of Mr Burns, "Excellent."
I'm Not Very Nice (The 7D)
Kelly Osbourne at her finest and meanest.
I'm The Music Meister (Batman The Brave And The Bold)
"Ah, the Music Meister, I still can't get his songs out of my head."
It's Gonna Get Weird (Gravity Falls)
The Bill Cipher song that never was.
Jekyll Jekyll Hyde (Arthur)
While this is technically a dream, Hyde Brain is still the villain of the song, therefore it counts.
The Man In Gauze (Courage The Cowardly Dog)
Return the slab or suffer his curse.
Meticulous Analysis of History (Pinky And The Brain)
Love the Gilbert and Sullivan vibe they're going for here.
Naughty Number Nine (Schoolhouse Rock)
The multiples of 9 sung from the perspective of a gangster cat.
The Pie Who Loved Me (Evil Con Carne)
This entire musical episode is about Hector trying to take over the world via pie.
Plankton's Song (Spongebob Squarepants)
Plankton sings about how he plans to conquer Atlantis.
Porpoise Power Ballad (Penguins Of Madagascar)
Neil Patrick Harris as an evil dolphin singing to a possessed MP3 player, not bad.
Rise Of The Vermillion (Lego Ninjago)
Snakes, why did it have to be snakes?
Robot Hell (Futurama)
What did poor Bender ever do to deserve this?
Say My Name (Plankton The Movie)
It’s pretty ironic that despite this movie being about Plankton, it’s his wife that has the best villain song in the whole thing.
(Also since the movie was leaked, I recommend waiting for the official release to include it in a villains song list.)
Tonight We Strike (The Lion Guard)
The only song able to give Be Prepared a worthy opponent.
Townsville's Going Down! (Powerpuff Girls)
Why was this episode banned again? Oh right, Christ-like imagery and strobing effects.
Victory’s Mine At Last (Penn Zero: Part Time Hero)
Who knew that Alfred Molina could sing so well.
We’re The Gremlins (Goodie The Gremlin)
A bit of a deep cut, I know, but where else are you gonna find a villain song in a Noveltoons cartoon.
When You're Mine (DC Superhero Girls)
If you're gonna brainwash Supergirl with red kryptonite, might as well it in song.
You Wouldn't Want To Mess With Me (Little Mermaid Animated Series)
Between this and Poor Unfortunate Souls, Ursula has quite the track record when it comes to musical talent.
Yzmapolis (Emperors New School)
What would happen if Kuzco never became emperor? You’d get this amazing song of course.
Don't forget rise of the Vermillion from Ninjago season 7
@@Pixal2014 I actually never heard that song since I don’t usually follow the newer seasons of the Ninjago cartoon.
Edit: I just listened to it and it sounds pretty good. Thanks for the recommendation.
Seeing Robbie Rotten here, I’m guessing We are Number One is going to be here or something.
I hope so!
Or maybe it’s master of disguise?
I'm super sure. R.I.P. Stefan Karl.
Probably the song used in the number transitions.
Yes it better I loved that song
But, for the sake of irony, it *won't* be number one.
Okay, I knew "This Day Aria" would probably on here somewhere, but it being at Number 1 was a bit of a surprise to me, but I suppose it really shouldn't have been. Regardless I am happy to see more of Brony Josh, I hope this is a sign that after about year or so We're finally getting more reviews over at FOB Equestria! I really hope so! ^^ Or maybe I'm just taking 2 cameos too seriously. ;)
If Robbie Rotten isn’t at Number 1, I will personally confront Josh
And ask him why he didn’t so in a civilized manner.
I’ll be happy if either We are Number One or Master of Disguise (Both from Robbie Rotten) make it onto the list.
Edit: Oh well. You win some, you lose some.
With a shotgun in hand, I'd wager?
Unloaded, of course, because that'd just be irresponsible otherwise.
Time to start planning your travel trip to his doorstep. Because it wasn't even on the list! It was an Honorable mention!
A fucking MLP song.
Why.
@@mix3k818 Because the list maker is a brony?
Honorable Mentions:
*Any Dr. Doofenshmirtz Song - Phineas and Ferb
*Shame - Big Mouth
*Da Pixie Rap - The Fairly Oddparents
*Some Sunny Day - Gravity Falls
-So what if it's a short song? It's still a fun little diddy from Bill Cipher.
*The Fearful Pirate Don Karnage - Ducktales (2017)
-A character from another Disney Afternoon cartoon made his grand return known with this little diddy.
*Music Meister - Batman The Brave and The Bold
*See my Vest - The Simpsons
- Though to be fair, any song with Mr. Burns could be a contender. Like "High to be Loathed" which had shadow puppets of other villains including Chucky, Megatron, Eric Cartman and Voldemort.
Literally any King K. Rool song from the DKC Cartoon
Quick elaboration the song Bill Cipher is a snippet of an old WWII song called We’ll Meet Again, it’s been used in stuff like Dr. Strangelove which makes sense in the context of Weirdmageddon since that movie is about the prelude to an apocalypse so to speak
Someone is finally giving "It's A Brand New Day" attention! I love that song to death and I'm so happy someone finally gave it the time of day!
DnD Tiktoks like using it to represent a oathbreaker Paladins.
The fact you put songs from shows like Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and the Tangled series PLUS know about Jewish traditions like booing Haman and the triangle hamantaschen cookies being based on his hat really shows how much research went into this video. Major kudos, Scorcher!
*Sees Robbie Rotten* I'm already afraid for what's to come.
You mean only getting an honorable mention?
@@williamcrowe2576 and getting beat by swiss cheese legs
@@DarkSymphony777 Burnt swiss cheese legs.
@@williamcrowe2576 You mean an actual good song compared to a meme and a half? I mean, god bless the guy, but honestly Robbie is nothing compared to the rest of the list.
"dont let your kids watch it"
Dude, Haman’s song is so good, you can really tell through most of Veggietales that the creators and writers were huge fans of film and musicals.
Looking back on VeggieTales, I can really tell. They made the guards on the walls of Jericho French Peas as a reference to Monty Python, and they had an entire episode dedicated to referencing Star Trek.
Holy smokes, that’s a Bibleman song in the transitions. My respect for you has increased a thousand fold, Mr Scorcher. I loved those shows growing up, and, yes, the villains were, ironically, part of the fun. Prince of pride and doctor fear were pretty impressive given what they had to work with.
What’s it called?
@@mysticalkeyblade759 Livin' la Furiosa!
th-cam.com/video/WM2FNVKxh2s/w-d-xo.html
Wait, what? That song for the transitions was from Bibleman of all things?
@@mysticalkeyblade759 That episode was called "Conquering the Wrath of Rage", and the song was called "Livin' La Furiosa" sung by the villain, El Furioso. Spicy salsa!
The fact that This Day Aria is still one of the best songs from the show, if not arguably the best, is what made it so genius for Tridashie to make a YTP of it, even with the YTP's lyrics being based around Among Us jokes.
“Other Friends” got me into the Electro Swing genre
Same
Actually, the cookies are not based on Haman's hat, but rather they are based on his ears.
The reason is that Haman was planning to execute Mordehai by hanging him off a tall tree by his ears, and Karmatically that's how he himself was executed in the end when his plot was revealed - even the tree Haman was planning to use for Mordehai was the same one they used to hang him.
« It feels too short » damn if that doesn’t sums up all the songs in the SU movie except happily ever after!
I mean happily ever after is still short
Its just the sing it over and over
To quote Spinel "thats right [We] heard the story over and over again"
Britt McKilip nailed it in this day aria, she really suits the evil/good princess role to a T
WE ARE NUMBER 1 FOR NUMBER 1 SPOT LETS GO!
Long rest the king of memes Stefan Karl Stefansson may he meme in peace
sadly only got honorable but Aria does beat it
Did Stefan love his first so much, he wanted it as his last name?
@@dangerdean9066 Nah he'd be like Odin and various Norse God's. With his First Name title as his kids names. Like Thor Odinson and Hela Odinsdottir
@@dangerdean9066 he was Icelandic, so (due to naming conventions being different over there) his father was also named Stefan
I wonder if Robbie is even a villain because he’s not evil.
Was not expecting to see Crazy Ex Girlfriend on this list! What a pleasant surprise, the show is so underrated 💖
I still remember seeing Lazy Town on Jetix and Disney XD. Fun times.
Speaking of Jetix, I wonder how many shows from that channel will end up here.
A Jetix list? Idk, maybe next next year when Josh starts running out of ideas. But I'm not his inspiration nor even a piece of his inspiration so idk.
Lazy Town on Jetix and Disney XD? I always saw it on either Nick Jr. or Sprout.
I'm surprised to see you talking about villain songs in Veggietales without mentioning "Oh No What We Gonna Do." That song really gets stuck in your head. Great video by the way.
Lazy Twon had a lot of great songs, personal favorite the Pirate episode and I just lost to irony of the guy who want's people to be lazy is more active then the hero. Rest In Peace, we shall never forget your greatness.
Okay I was NOT expecting Dr. Horrible to be mentioned. It's so underrated and I'm glad to see it getting some recognition!
Commander Firebrand sassing Joshscorcher? ¤sigh¤ They grow up so fast.
I just love it when OC's and creator's have some fun back and forth banter.^w^
I love “What’s The Use Of Feeling Blue?” cause of the double meaning.
It could be heard as Yellow asking Blue about what’s the use of feeling at all or it could be heard as what’s the use of feeling sad when there are other things to focus on.
Thank you for adding “Her other Friends” from Steven Universe! It was short, but just, PERFECT! And the VA did the Singing as well! SHE NAILED IT!!
I love how everyone who's watched MLP (at least up to or past A Wedding in Canterlot) just collectively agrees that This Day Aria is fucking amazing.
“This Day Aria” was my favorite My Little Pony Villain Song.
I am a bit upset that Q... I mean Discord never got a song because John DeLancie has a wonderful singing voice.
@@gilessaint-loup2426 he did get a song but it wasn’t a villain song it was discord singing about the symptoms of his illness

My favourite song in general.
I'm SO HAPPY you brought up brand new day! Dr. horrible needs more love
I knew This Day Aria was going to be on here somewhere.
I'm surprised Josh didn't mention the Myst shout-out with the chandelier.
Me too
Dr. Horrible is such a great musical. The final song is so haunting and one of my favorites. I’m so glad it was included.
Called it that this was the next list! Also glad that Other Friends is on it. A friend of mine who’s not even a big SU fan made a BATIM au parody of it. That shows how good it is.
I'm so glad that Dr. Horrible's sing along blog was on here. I love it. Same with Crazy Ex girlfriend
Does Agatha All Along not count? I feel like it should've been here even though it's very short.
Yes! That song is awesome and Kathryn Hahn is great as a villain
I just realized what Ember’s show looked familiar… apparently it reminds me of “welcome to the show” which only from what I’ve seen from these few clips kinda look similar
Okay, one noticeable bop missing here. Altogether now!
"Who's been messing up everything?"
It’s been Agatha all along.
Who's been pulling every evil string?
It's been agatha all along
Wow! Wasn’t expecting you to mention Veggie Tales! I’m impressed! By the way I love all of your stuff! Keep it up!
I got a great big smile when VeggieTales came up
Same here. Though I'm slightly upset it isn't the Bunny Song... Though Haman's song is deep.
This day aria is so good but cozy glow’s “Better way to be Bad” hella slaps especially with the violin that should’ve gotten a honorable mention
Honestly I’m guessing master of your fate from teen Titans maybe? I’m also secretly hoping what you feel from Buffy the Vampire Slayer is on here
I heard Livin' La Furiosa and I got flashbacks to Sunday School
Okay, so while I liked the choice for Rapuzel's Tangled Adventure, I feel like Nothing Left To Lose was a better song since it was a duet between the current villain and someone who recently was redeemed after becoming a villain and the risks of revenge.
My man out here giving me new series to watch
Using "Livin' La Furiosa" as a transition is brilliant. If there's one thing I miss about Bibleman, it's the villain songs of Brian Lemmons. I'll never understand why they got dubbed over for the DVD releases.
I saw TV Show Villain Songs and I immediately thought of the Prince of Pride's musical moment.
@@thecrimsoncommando3875 🎶I got an ego three miles wide, and my mouth is always running!🎶
"Songs?" as in plural? I had seven of the VHS tapes and only know of this one!
@@JeremyBelpoisX There's also "I Am the Prince of Pride".
The last song from "my little pony" reminds me of "confrontation" from Jekyll and Hyde. It is also an awesome duett with one singer
This day aria is really freaking good. I also love that it's pretty much a duet between main antagonist of season 2 and one of mlp's better side characters. Though I'll be honest, the Queen was the better of the two in the song
LOOOOOOVE THIS VIDEO! I love that you highlight Crazy Ex-Girllfriend, Dr. Horrible, and (the crosses the line twice) South Park songs.
Speaking of NPH he did a lot of work for animated show musical episodes like Dr. Blowhole in Penguins of Madagascar and the Music Meister in Batman:The Brave and the Bold.
I have to say I was not expecting VeggieTales to be on here but boy am I happy and the one from Esther oh my gosh that's just amazing
even I'm a Brony and even I've find This Day Aria from My Little Pony Friendship is Magic Best Villain Song
You know, every time I see the word 'Aria' in MLP, I think of Aria Blaze, my favourite Dazzling
And he neglected to mention the Myst shout-out with the chandelier, or the musical puns with "deceptive" and "authentic" cadences in the accompaniment.
called it
I know for a fact that at least one of the Metal Gear Rising boss themes will be on the next list.
But it'll be It Has To Be This Way
So good news
1. Other friends, male rock cover. Spinel's song was made for it and I love it.
3. Honestly I like 'Ready as I'lll Ever be' More than the one you chose.
Shame he did not mention “Robot Hell”
Robot devil’s singing is so fun an maniacal!
That Bibleman song in the transition was some whiplash, man I unironically liked that as a kid XD
Hey Josh, I grew up watching Veggietales too and I still remember it fondly. I liked all of the ones I watched but some particular favorites of mine are Daniel and the lion’s den, Dave and the Giant Pickle, Esther… The Girl Who Became Queen, Minnesota Cuke, Larryboy, the western bible stories, Jonah and the Pirates who don’t do anything. Please tell me what your favorites are!
My thoughts on what'll be included
*We Are Number One (Lazy Town): hammy performance by such an entertaining and goofy villain (R.I.P. Stefan Karl)
*It Was Agetha All Along (WandaVision): Munsters-styled villain song after the twist, yes please
*Other Friends or Drift Away (Steven Universe): I couldn't decide which is better because Spinel is a great tragic villain
*A Better Way to be Bad (My Little Pony): the last villain song of Gen 4
*Let the Pun Fit the Crime or I'm The Bad Guy (Wander Over Yonder): one tune perfectly explains why Lord Dominator is so deliciously evil, and the other has Weird Al Yankovic
*Waiting in The Wings (Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure): Dang does Cass have some good pipes, just like her mother, Gothel
*Basically any song by Dr. Doofenshmirtz (Phineas and Ferb): I literally couldn't choose one, they're all too catchy
*Master of Your Fate (Teen Titans): Catchy, fits with the villain, and those last words were just chilling from Tom Kenny
Drives Us Bat (Batman: The Brave and The Bold): Neil Patrick Harris still has great pipes, and it fits as the anthem for people tired of Batman for a while
“Can’t do any worse than these two, trust me.” And then Velma came along.
HECK YEAH a Tangled song made the top 3! I loved Tangled the series, the songs were amazing and I absolutely adored the characters. There aren't many villain songs in the series but the one you picked is an absolute banger!
And also I did NOT expect to see Veggietales on this list O.o
I agree with you about Crossing The Line. I personally always saw it as the song former villains would sing as they leave their old group behind like Jinx from Teen Titans, especially when you take the cut lyrics into account.
I'm surprised "Robot Hell" didn't even get an honorable mention.
Same here
Ditto
If you do a sequel to this, Josh, you MUST add "Stayed Gone" from Hazbin Hotel. The back and forth between Vox and Alastor is great and how Alastor throws back Vox's words at him in the end is chilling.
28:07
Well now Firebrand needs to do a Top 10 MLP Villain Songs video.
You know he deserves it.
"Why can't the live action remakes be a fraction this good!?"
They involve real people
Im surprised you went with Crossing the Line rather than Ready As Ill Ever Be, since that tends to be the more well loved villain song from the series.
And it’s Jeremy Jordan. You probably don’t know who that is though lol. He did Broadway and has vocals!
@@emeliahoodaway5604
is Jeremy from CtL, or RaiEB? and if so, who was the voice he did?
I don’t know about that. He plays Wyn in supergirl and did a bunch of Broadway stuff.
Of all of the songs you use for the transition, you picked Bibleman's La Furiousa...thank you. That show was so cheesy yet I can't help but have a good opinion of it.
Same here, what a rumba!
As soon as you said crazy ex-girlfriend I knew exactly which song you were going to use and let me just say you have impeccable taste.
I’m a good person or Nothing Is Ever Anyone’s Fault are also acceptable choices!
@@graceglo6638 i mean yeah but one is a clear spiral into villain territory but not fully there yet, (and before you say it i know she literally holds someone at knifepoint, but it's played for comedy. Really dark comedy but comedy nonetheless. Where as in villain of my own story, a very silly over the top song, you get the sense that it somehow takes itself more seriously than I'm a good person.) And then in nothing is ever anyone's fault it's more a parody than anything else. I mean right after that song Rebecca denies the message of the song and says "i have issues but that doesn't excuse my actions". Idk that's just how i see it. Still love those songs tho, i just disagree that they're villain songs
Note: this day from MLPFiM used a "deceptive cadence", a technical term refers to music. That's the real reason this does not belong on any list for it transcends the masses.
Ah yes, TV villain songs are truly something
Can’t wait to watch the video in a few hours
Alot of good ones missed ive seen from comments and remembered
1.Any dr doof song
2. Music meister (Batman brave and the bold)
3. Ready as I'll ever be (Tangled series)
4. We are number one (Why is it only a honorable mention
5. Oh no what we gonna do (veggietales)
6. Its about to get weird (bill cipher gravity falls)
