What are some of your favorites? I think the darkest of the dark is Hellfire from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Hellfire

Here are some others that come to mind:

Be Prepared - The Lion King
Poor Unfortunate Souls - The Little Mermaid
Kill the Beast - Beauty and the Beast

Definitely should be at or near the top.

I always loved Be Prepared and how dark it was. shite was Nazi-like at times.

Song of Mor'Du
Song of Mor'Du from Brave. It doesn't sound dark when you listen to it but when you know the words you realize it is.

Be Prepared is my favorite, but some other dark songs not mentioned:

Prince Ali by Jafar -Aladdin
"The venue's chosen! It's the ends of the earth! Whoopee! So long! Ex-Prince, Ali!"


Oogie Boogie Man - Nightmare Before Christmas
"It's hopeless, you're finished, You haven't got a prayer. 'Cause I'm Mr. Oogie Boogie and you ain't going nowhere"

Be Prepared immediately springs to my mind.

I honestly don't think that was very dark. Not bad though. The little mermaid song is much much darker. Being turned into fricking seaweed and being kept as a trophy in a miserable little cave for the rest of eternity with that creepy witch is super dark.

Is an all-time great Disney musical number. Darker than anything else they've done.

Prince Ali - Because Jafar is a legitimate psychopath.

Be Prepared is pretty tame in comparison to the above.

"It scared me out of my wits
A corpse falling to bits
Then I opened my eyes and the nightmare was me"

"I was once the most mystical man in all Russia
When the royals betrayed me they made a mistake
My Curse made each of them pay
But one little girl got away
Little Anya, beware
Rasputins awake"


Rubers theme is pretty good too

Fantasia probably shouldn't count, especially since the song isn't an original by any means, but Night on Bald Mountain haunted me as a kid.

Hellfire, Savages, & The Mob Song ("Kill the Beast") are my favorites.

Friends on the Other Side is a good one too.

Heaven's Light/Hellfire is the greatest Disney score in my opinion. I also think it's the darkest, with Savages from Pocahontas also up for consideration.

Yeah, that song is dark. Imagine if they'd kept the original ending to the Hunchback of Notre Dame. That would have ruined some childhoods.
