DuckTales Character Songs! (Part 2)

Alright, now we’re cooking here! This time around, I’m going to be focusing on important recurring characters that debuted in Season 1.

Again, giving some brainstorming credit on this to @glowyjellyfish, plus, also, a little bit to @shychick-52, since one of these is in her pinned list.

Flintheart Glomgold

Rasputin by Boney M.

Ah, Rasputin. The Russian mystic who wouldn’t die. And like Rasputin, Glomgold is a very fiery, polarizing character who will say and do anything to get to the top, even if he has to resort to power beyond his normal means (not unlike The 87 Cent Solution!)

Bradford Buzzard

Takin’ Care of Business by Bachman-Turner Overdrive

He didn’t really have a bigger role until Season 3, but he still counts for here! Anyway, Bradford is very serious, by-the-book, and business-oriented, so this song works perfectly for him.

Ma Beagle and the Beagle Boys

Bad Boys by Inner Circle from Cops

Pretty self-explanatory here. Moving on.

Gyro Gearloose

The Scientist by Coldplay

Yes, the title is obvious. But the lyrics can be seen as speaking more to his guilt over his past actions (“Nobody said it was easy, it’s such a shame for us to part,” “I was just guessing at numbers and figures, pulling the puzzles apart,” etc.), such as what happened at Tokyolk and with the Spear of Selene.

Lena

Demons by Imagine Dragons

All throughout Season 1 (and even in later episodes), Lena had personal demons regarding Magica that she couldn’t easily shake. Like the lyrics said, she wanted to hide the truth from Webby and everyone else, but there was nowhere to hide. And she always kept up walls that prevented her from getting too close to people (“Don’t get too close, it’s dark inside.”) And even after she broke from Magica’s control, she was worried that she could still turn out bad, but with the help of others, especially Webby and Violet, she was able to overcome those demons in her mind.

Gladstone Gander

Life Has Been Good to Me by Randy Newman

Gladstone is a naturally lucky character. Whatever happens in the game of life, the dice roll in his favor. I guess other than the events leading up to and within The House of the Lucky Gander!, life is good to him.

Mark Beaks

How Bad Can I Be? by Ed Helms from The Lorax

Life is all about survival of the fittest at times. You gotta do what it takes to survive, even if it means screwing others over. That mindset is 100% Beaks to me. The last half of the song, especially, where the Once-ler is bragging about his business and building an economy, absolutely screams Beaks to me.

Zeus, Storkules, and Selene

Zeus: The Gospel Truth by Lillias White, LaChanze, Roz Ryan, Cheryl Freeman, and Vaneese Thomas from Hercules

Storkules: The Harder They Come by Jimmy Cliff

Selene: Song About the Moon by Paul Simon

I feel it would only be appropriate if I put the three deities of Ithaquack together. First off, I kinda had to throw a Hercules song in there somewhere, and this one brilliantly tells the story of how Zeus came to power. On the second note, Storkules is absolutely a pillar of strength, and he’s very determined, too. Just like the real-life myth and the movie, he will take on any and all opponents, no matter how big or daunting they may be. Finally, we have Selene, the goddess of the moon. The moon is very powerful, graceful, and beautiful, just as she is. The song here explains how in order to write a song about the moon, you need to capture its features, its essence. And in order to write a song about the heart or a face, tie it back to writing about the moon. It just shows how influential the moon can be, just as Selene is in making decisions as a goddess.

Lyrics:

I met a devil woman

She took my heart away

She said, I′ve had it comin' to me

But I wanted it that way

I think that any love is good lovin′

So I took what I could get, mmh

Oooh, oooh she looked at me with big brown eyes

And said,

You ain't seen nothin' yet

B-b-b-baby, you just ain′t seen n-n-nothin′ yet

Here's something that you never gonna forget

B-b-b-baby, you just ain′t seen n-n-nothin' yet

Nothin′ yet, you ain't been around

That′s what they told me

And now I'm feelin' better

′Cause I found out for sure

She took me to her doctor

And he told me of a cure

He said that any love is good love

So I took what I could get

Yes, I took what I could get

And then she looked at me with them big brown eyes

And said,

You ain′t seen nothin' yet

B-b-b-baby, you just ain′t seen n-n-nothin' yet

Here′s something, here's something your never gonna forget, baby

You know, you know, you know you just ain′t seen nothin' yet

You need educatin'

You got to got to school

Any love is good lovin′

So I took what I could get

Yes, I took what I could get

And then, and then, and then

She looked at me with them big brown eyes

Songwriter: Randy Bachman

And said,

You ain′t seen nothin' yet

Baby, you just ain′t seen n-n-nothin' yet

Here′s something, here's something

Here′s something that your never gonna forget, baby

Baby, baby, baby you ain't seen n-n-nothin' yet

You ain′t been around

You ain′t seen nothin' yet

That′s what she told me

She said, I needed educatin', go to school

I know I ain′t seen nothin' yet

I know I ain′t seen nothin' yet

Got something for you right now

Feels good, alright, how do you do that?

But I ain't seen nothin′ yet

I deserve it one of these days

Woohoo, but I ain′t seen nothin' yet

Yeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeah

I ain′t seen nothin' yet

I′ll wait, I'll wait, I′ll wait

If you want to show me what I ain't seen, where I ain't been

Lalalalalala
