Can I talk to you about something? I want to talk about the Villain Song trope. Now I obviously don't have a problem with the trope itself as villain songs are awesome. The problem with the trope at least regarding its status on other Wiki sites is that there seems to be no limitations or restrictions as to what can be considered a villain song. TV Tropes makes it clear in the tropes description that just because a song is sung by a villain doesn't mean that it is one. The example they give is Music Of The Night from Phantom Of The Opera yes The Phantom sings it but he's not singing it to gloat over his villainy. Another great example is the songs on Muppet Treasure Island. The film features 4 songs sung by villains but only two of them are actually villain songs Shiver My Timbers and Professional Pirate. The other two while sung by the pirates aren't singing about how evil they are. But on other Wiki sites alot of these songs are considered "villain songs." I brought this up with Gloriosa Daisy A.K.A Gaea Everfree but Trixie's Tricks Up My Sleeve song and Diamond Tiara's songs in Crusaders Of The Lost Mark are considered by TVTROPES as villain songs despite the fact that they aren't considered villains according to this wikis rules. If Midnight Sparkle during the events of Friendship Games went into a "ha ha ha ha  I'm evil" music number would that still exclude her from being recognized as a villain? That's the problem with the trope is that there seems to be no limitations as to what can be considered a villain song. I would like to hear your thoughts on this topic.
