Evil can be it’s own reward! “I do it all because I’m evil and I do it all for free… your tears are all the pay I’ll ever need!” Wrongdoing may not always be the most lucrative endeavor, but when you get discouraged, just think about all the lovely pain and suffering you’re causing. Voltaire, the goth option for Weird Al fans, writes songs that celebrate the darker side of life, from “Devil, Devil, Devil, Devil Evil, Evil, Evil, Evil Song” to “BRAINS!” This song from album “The Devil’s Bris” serves as a reminder that sometimes a villain doesn’t need a complex motive. Are you really going to stand for that? Maybe it’s time to come out of retirement and rekindle the fires of that old foe-mance. Because guess what? While you’re puttering around in post-villain retirement, the hero is still out there acting all smug. Kirby Krackle, an amazingly enjoyable comic book-themed band, knows your plight, and is there to tell you that it’s never too late to dust off that death ray and revive an old rivalry. This song is for the villain who feels like giving up, firing the henchmen, and retiring to a quiet life of relaxing on the beach. Romantic! If at first you don’t succeed, try, try until Stockholm Syndrome sets in. And if your love interest isn’t delighted by gifts of monkey-pony hybrid monstrosities? A trip in a golden submarine should definitely win them over, especially because your Doomsday Squad has ensured that you’ll be the last two people left on earth. And when that special someone tries to make a break for it, time for a friendly reminder that there are wolves outside your secret lair. Hey, villains need love, too - ust because you’re a mad scientist controlled by voices in your head doesn’t mean you can’t find that special someone. This villain’s love song comes to us from Jonathan Coulton’s album Where Tradition Meets Tomorrow. Also, we’re only picking songs with lyrics, as opposed to instrumental themes like the “Imperial March.” It’s time to shine the spotlight on some of the other great songs that celebrate and feature bad guys.ġ0) “Skullcrusher Mountain” by Jonathan Coulton
The moment we mentioned “Villain songs” some of you began humming “Hellfire” from The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and yes, it’s a great song, but it’s been discussed time and time again. Two caveats: No Disney songs they’re too easy.
Where is the music that caters to the super-villains, the dictators, the bloody murderers and insane schemers among us? Look no further than this list! There’s a song here for every type of villain. But what’s this? Too many songs are made for the good and heroic in mind, and one can only listen to “Night on Bald Mountain” so many times. All you need now is the perfect music to listen to. You sit upon your throne (won through an elaborate bloody campaign of shadowy doings), summon a henchman to bring you a drink (preferably in a chalice made from the skull of your archenemy), and take off your armored boots to relax (perhaps while petting a fluffy kitty). You’ve had a hard days work of conquering, subjugating and committing general acts of bastardy.
