Hellfire

Song: Hellfire
Artist: Peter Hollens (From, The Hunchback of Notre Dame)

As creepy and slightly scandalous and provocative this song is (and it's in a Disney movie!) I kind of like it....I know, I know. I'm weird. The music from The Hunchback of Notre Dame is just so good! And so underrated! And a lot of it is kind of eerie and creepy to be honest....But when I saw that Peter Hollens (one of my favorite youtubers) posted this video, I knew I had to feature it here. That thumbnail alone is pretty dang frighting! And Peter's facial expressions in this video are so disturbing and creepy, especially compared to his normally happy and cheerful demeanor! Great job Peter! And thanks for another great addition to my "HALLOWEEN Playlist!" (Also, if this song sounds familiar, it's probably because part of it was included in Peter's Epic Disney Villains Medley that I posted on Saturday. Check it out!)

Confiteor Deo Omnipotenti (I confess to God almighty)
Beatae Mariae semper Virgini (To blessed Mary ever Virgin)
Beato Michaeli archangelo (To the blessed archangel Michael)
Sanctis apostolis omnibus sanctis (To the holy apostles to all the saints)

Beata Maria
You know I am a righteous man
Of my virtue I am justly proud

Beata Maria
You know I'm so much purer than
The common, vulgar, weak, licentious crowd

Then tell me, Maria
Why I see her dancing there
Why her smold'ring eyes still scorch my soul

I feel her, I see her
The sun caught in her raven hair
Is blazing in me out of all control

Like fire
Hellfire
This fire in my skin
This burning
Desire
Is turning me to sin

It's not my fault
(Mea culpa (Through my fault))
I'm not to blame
(Mea culpa (Through my fault))
It is the gypsy girl
The witch who sent this flame
(Mea maxima culpa (Through my most grievous fault))
It's not my fault
(Mea culpa (Through my fault))
If in God's plan
(Mea culpa (Through my fault))
He made the devil so much
Stronger than a man
(Mea maxima culpa (Through my most grievous fault))

Protect me, Maria
Don't let this siren cast her spell
Don't let her fire sear my flesh and bone
Destroy Esmeralda
And let her taste the fires of hell
Or else let her be mine and mine alone

Hellfire
Dark fire
Now gypsy, it's your turn
Choose me or
Your pyre
Be mine or you will burn

(Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy))
God have mercy on her
(Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy))
God have mercy on me
(Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy))
But she will be mine
Or she will burn!

I thought this cover from Caleb Hyles was also pretty dark and dramatic!

.....ANNNND this "Female Version" is pretty cool!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
