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"

Butch Hartman: The ghosts are just monsters. Me: Remembering the Genie episode where we got a flashback from a ghost's past. Me: Yeah. Sure.

See Robbie Rotten in thumbnail only for it to be an honorable mention: "You raised my hope and dashed them quite expertly sir, bravo!"

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.

“Well I’ll be honest I don’t really understand” why none of Dr Doofenshirtz’s songs weren’t on here.

THAT'S WHERE SPINEL WAS! I was so baffled that Other Friends wasn't even an honorable mention when you did movies. Wonderful.

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...

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?"

For some reason people forget about Batman the Brave and the Bold's best villain, Music Meister.

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.

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

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 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.

Josh: poor wander over yonder- Me, collapsing into a puddle of tears: YOU WERE TAKEN FROM US TOO SOON!

Bruh, that fakeout at number 1 was perfect. But yeah, I can see how This Day Aria really nailed how dark it can get.

Wander Over Yonder pops up. Me: “I’m the Bad Guy” hell yeah!

Aw man. Now I'm sad Bill Cipher's deleted song, "Its gonna get weird" didn't make it on here.

"Why cant the live Action remakes be a fraction of this good?!" Preach, Brother

Listens to Remember as a kid: Yeah, this is alright. Listens to Remember as an adult: ... Wait, WHAT?

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 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.

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’m kinda glad “Come Wayward Souls” from Over the Garden Wall was at least an Honorable Mention

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 would like for "How bad can I be" to become a meme on this channel how "It was his mistake" is on Shaffrillas channel

Ok look, i fell out of my little pony YEARS ago, but damn, this day Aria i can never forget, its that powerful

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. Back To Misery (The Ghost And Molly McGee) Now that is an unfriendly ghost. 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. Da Pixie Rap (Fairly Odd Parents) Anyone who remembers School's Out!: The Musical remembers this song. The Devil’s Song (The Cuphead Show) Just as good as the game if not better. Do The Koopa (The Adventures Of Super Mario Bros 3) If you don’t Do The Koopa, then you’re a party poopa. 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! The Earthshaker (The Replacements) I don’t know how Dr Scorpuis thought that a dance would help him take over the world, but at least it’s pretty catchy Glomtales (Ducktale 2017) Villainous parody of the main theme sung by Scrooges bitter rival. Gwendolyn’s Lament (Big City Greens Spacecation) All this just so she could get approval from her kindergarten teacher? Now that’s petty. 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. Let’s Slay The Beast Tonight (House Of Mouse) Lefou and the other villagers singing a parody of YMCA, need I say more? 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. Oh My Karen (Spongebob Squarepants) Plankton really loves his computer wife. The Pie Who Loved Me (Evil Con Carne) This entire musical episode is about Hector trying to take over the world via pie. 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? 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.

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.....

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 🙏

Really hope that there’ll be at least 1 Phineas and Ferb song on here.

I feel so validated by seeing “brand new day“ and „I’m the villain in my own story“ on this list

Oh god, please do a "Jim Henson" themed villain song list. There are a lot of songs that weren't on the other lists.

Seeing Robbie Rotten here, I’m guessing We are Number One is going to be here or something.

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

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.

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.

*Sees Robbie Rotten* I'm already afraid for what's to come.

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!

thank you for Spinel. It's probably my favorite song out of the entire series lol

Britt McKilip nailed it in this day aria, she really suits the evil/good princess role to a T

“Other Friends” got me into the Electro Swing genre

« It feels too short » damn if that doesn’t sums up all the songs in the SU movie except happily ever after!

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.

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!

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.

WE ARE NUMBER 1 FOR NUMBER 1 SPOT LETS GO! Long rest the king of memes Stefan Karl Stefansson may he meme in peace

Was not expecting to see Crazy Ex Girlfriend on this list! What a pleasant surprise, the show is so underrated 💖

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.

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.

I knew This Day Aria was going to be on here somewhere.

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.

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. ;)

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 got a great big smile when VeggieTales came up

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.

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

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.

“This Day Aria” was my favorite My Little Pony Villain Song.

Okay I was NOT expecting Dr. Horrible to be mentioned. It's so underrated and I'm glad to see it getting some recognition!

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

Okay, one noticeable bop missing here. Altogether now! "Who's been messing up everything?"

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 heard Livin' La Furiosa and I got flashbacks to Sunday School

The last song from "my little pony" reminds me of "confrontation" from Jekyll and Hyde. It is also an awesome duett with one singer

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!!

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 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.

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.

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'm surprised "Robot Hell" didn't even get an honorable mention.

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

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.

Does Agatha All Along not count? I feel like it should've been here even though it's very short.

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 am a huge fan of the music in the Tangled series. With Nothing Left to Lose being my absolute favorite.

I was so upset with the fake number one and I was so happy when it turned out to be “wedding day aria”

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.

Tangled the Series getting the love it deserves!

Shame he did not mention “Robot Hell” Robot devil’s singing is so fun an maniacal!

Crossing the line, Haman's Song, and This Day Aria in the top 3? Hell yeah!

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

even I'm a Brony and even I've find This Day Aria from My Little Pony Friendship is Magic Best Villain Song

The moment I saw your Ponysona I knew it was This Day Aria.

I'm so happy someone finally mentioned I'm the bad guy, its a great song and is very underated

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

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.

It's always nice to see the Tangled series getting some love :)

LOOOOOOVE THIS VIDEO! I love that you highlight Crazy Ex-Girllfriend, Dr. Horrible, and (the crosses the line twice) South Park songs.

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.

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

This day aria still gives me chills

The moment I saw MLP on number 1 I knew what song would be Queen Rules! 👑

That Bibleman song in the transition was some whiplash, man I unironically liked that as a kid XD

When It comes to Danny Phantom, the theory is the psycho-reactive substance ectoplasm records the thoughts and memories of the deceased. So while the soul, may or may not stay, the memories and emotions do stay to form a ghost. Ember's human soul may have passed on, but her heart lives on her ghost, bound by her obsessions. In Real Ghostbusters, there are actually two types of ghost - ones born of departed souls and ones born of emotion.

The animation in "other friends" is a master class in adding weight to weapon use, in addition to all the other good points about the song. Edit: the fun hidden little fact of This Day Aria is the fact that it's written in deceptive cadence. ;)

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

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.

I really thought at least a Fairly Odd Parents song would have made the list like "Give me the Wand" or "The Pixies Rap", or Teen Titans with "Master of Your Fate"

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.
