Hellfire has become a track commonly associated with Disney Villains as an instrumental in various Disney park shows, such as in World of Color, the Tokyo DisneySea version of Fantasmic!, and in fireworks shows such as Wishes: A Magical Gathering of Disney Dreams, and HalloWishes. She will be mine or at the stake, I swear, she'll burn! I will possess this gypsy witch for my own Who let this fire consume my flesh and bone My brain is boiling, roiling, driving me to sin Sanctis apostolis Petro et Paulo, omnibus sanctis (To the holy apostles Peter and Paul, to all the saints) Get out, you idiot! I'll find her! I'll find her if I have to burn down all of Paris!īeato Johanni baptistae (To the blessed John the Baptist) Guard: Minister Frollo, the gypsy has escaped.įrollo: But how? I. He made the devil so much stronger than a manĭon't let her fire sear my flesh and bone Why her smoldering eyes still scorch my soul (Quia peccavi nimis (That I have sinned)) The common, vulgar, weak, licentious crowd Sanctis apostolis omnibus sanctis (To the holy apostles, to all the saints) The sequence contains also heavy visuals to match the lyrics, including provocative dancing from images of Esmeralda in the fire.Ĭonfiteor Deo Omnipotenti (I confess to God almighty)īeatae Mariae semper Virgini (To blessed Mary ever Virgin)īeato Michaeli archangelo (To the blessed archangel Michael) This song is considered to be one of the darkest songs in any Disney film, depicting Hell, damnation, lust, and sin, examples of subject matter that would generally be considered inappropriate for younger children. The song closes with Frollo praying for God to have mercy upon Esmeralda and himself - the scene possesses dark imagery of figures/silhouettes flowing past the judge holding crucifixes - he reiterates his demand and the song finishes as he collapses in the shape of a Petrine Cross. As the song continues, Frollo sings lines in front of the fireplace, which gives the gypsy, Esmeralda, an ultimatum - to choose him (become his mistress) or to be condemned to eternal suffering and tribulation in Hell, "Choose me or your pyre, Be mine or you will burn,". The judge vows to "burn down all of Paris," and the song resumes. He proceeds to request vehemently to " Destroy Esmeralda" and to " let her taste the fires of Hell!", or to " let her be mine and mine alone", which indicates Frollo's great sexual desire for Esmeralda.Īfter this prolonged segment, there was a dialogue interruption, in which one of his guards informs him about the gypsy's escape from the cathedral.
After Frollo had commenced his melodic soliloquy and had sung in front of the fireplace for some time, he asks the Virgin Mary (referred to by Frollo as, " Beata Maria") to not, " let the siren cast her spell" and to not " let her fire sear my flesh and bone". The song, sung by the film's main antagonist Judge Claude Frollo, was intended to contrast with the song " Heaven's Light", that was sung by Quasimodo moments earlier as he expressed his feelings of love for Esmeralda, while later, Frollo sings of his lust for Esmeralda. " Hellfire" is a song from Disney's 1996 animated feature, The Hunchback of Notre Dame. “ Hellfire! Dark fire! Now gypsy, it's your turn!” ―Lyric from the song
