OMG HEY, I am so excited to release Dolores’s villain song (in the style of Encanto) you have no idea. SO for those of you that have followed the series for a while I generally reimagine pre-existing songs and this is the first time I have written an original song for the series (obvs still inspired by the style of Encanto and taking inspo from Dolores’s bit in WDTAB) and my god am I so excited it's finally out. I really hope you enjoy it and can see all the love and effort myself and Tony put into the song and the time and effort Shrubbug put into the animatic! Thanks for watching and I'll see ya next week for another villain xx
As always, Dolores's Villain story for context! (Inspired by the Mat Pat film theory)
STORY
Dolores hates her powers, she always has, but would never dare to complain or moan about the ‘Miracle’ they were given. Imagine, being able to hear everything anyone is saying 24/7 from the age of 5. Maybe if she’d learnt to block people out or had someone to guide her she could’ve managed her powers better but her family barely understand how they have powers to begin with, let alone how to control them. And so little Dolores put up with it, keeping secrets, ignoring the gossip she heard about herself, ignoring Bruno's whispers and the cracks forming in the house.
That was until she overheard a conversation and learned that the magic would fail. Though I'm not referencing the conversation you think I am, no, Dolores has known the magic would fail for a long time. She heard it when Bruno first shared his vision all those years ago. From that moment forward Dolores saw a chance at freedom and set in motion a plan to ensure Bruno's vision came true and the magic died. Finally a chance at peace.
So she bides her time, waiting for the perfect moment to pounce, all the while ignoring Bruno hidden inside the house. That moment came when Mirabel mentioned people were worried about the magic and Dolores made her first move, revealing that Luisa was weakening. From there she began sowing seeds of doubt and bitterness throughout the family. Moving next to Isabela, mentioning that Mariano wanted 5 kids, causing her to doubt her course of action in marrying him to further shake her and the family. Finally her biggest move yet, revealing the vision to everyone at dinner. Surely this would bring the magic down. Watching the chaos ensue as Mirabel ran around trying and failing miserably to fix everything. And, at long last, she got what she wanted. The house collapsed, the candle was out, the magic was finally gone and she had a moment of silence..
For the first time since she was 5 years old Dolores was excited for her future. She could finally hear herself again. Until Mirabel placed the handle on the door and her powers came flooding back. No, no, no! She’d done everything right, finally everything was as it always should’ve been. She wouldn’t go back, couldn't go back. And in her agony a new power emerged...

Dolores says stream this song now or else - ffm.to/rulethequiet Wanna sing this? Check out the karaoke track here! https://youtu.be/7Q6K0CnCuCw?si=LM4nGDwxQl5lRa-C New villain and new original song next week! Who are you hoping it’ll be??
-
Mirabel is literally the only one who didn’t panic during Dolores’ outrage… and tried to PEACEFULLY confront her. Dolores didn’t attack her, she was temporarily brought to ease… Mirabel probably could’ve calmed her down if she hadn’t been interrupted.
-
Seeing each girl get their own villain song...all we need now is Luisa and we've collected all Encanto Infinity Stones- I mean songs
-
I love how dolores's villain song is just "yall shut up" cuz honestly... mood
-
I like the little detail that Camilo was also as devastated as Dolores when the magic returned, meaning his imposter syndrome probably still hasn't fully gone away
-
Fun fact: The name "Dolores" literally translates to "sorrows" or "pain" in Spanish. Also, the entire town likely knows about her "gift", so having them set off fireworks and clapping loudly is insult to injury.
-
Okay but like how is Dolores not insane in the movie? She can hear the entire village from anywhere and that much noise 24/7 whether its animals, talking, or anything really would drive anyone insane.
-
2:16 I love how she looks so calm until the kids start talking. She’s going so insane that she will get ticked off by the smallest noise. She’s so ranged that she won’t even let kids speak.
-
This song has just inspired a headcannon for me. I am choosing to believe that Miabel and/or Camillo learned ASL in order to communicate with Doloros without adding to the cacophony of noise.
-
Poor Dolores. I love how Mirabel (obviously) is the only one who actually tries to reach out to her with understanding.
-
I like how they catch Dolores at the end, since usually in Lydia’s animatics, it’s pretty obvious that The Bad Guy Wins. Course, Dolores still silenced a lot of people with no indication it can be reversed.
-
Ngl I love the idea that Dolores, in her desperation for quiet, learns to mute the voices of others. It seems simple but I just adore it.
-
In the movie, Dolores was talking about how she could hear Luisa's eye twitch all night. Assuming she was in her bedroom, also trying to sleep, it would mean she doesn't have soundproof walls. I think her gift should have provided that when giving her a room.
-
Isabella used her thorns and vines to trap Delores in this song like she did with the others in her song. I also like the reference to mirabel in all the encanto songs. Whenever anyone else is panicking, she is the one to try and attempt to calm them down. Yet in her villain song, nobody tries to stop her or support her like she does with everyone else.
-
1:33 "if a tree were to fall, and no one was there, would it make a sound at all?" "The answer is yes, worry less 'bout the tree And more about those in your halls!" This one hits me on a spiritual level
-
I love the fact that at the end her hair is down for the first time ever. She's fully broken down, nothing and no one can keep her together and her hair also covers her ears, as if a sound proof barrier.
-
i love how they'res a subtle hint to Mirabels villain song in Mirabels villain song she calls Dolores out "to scared to even make a sound" and here, in Dolores villain song ,she is literally saying "I Cant make a sound" neat world-building in the Lydiaverse
-
i love how Dolores didn't let Mirabel stop her, either- like girlie threw LUISA into a wall, she's unstoppable now.😭
-
I LOVE how Dolores's character slowly turns more red as she gets more fed up and mad of the noise AND how when she snapped there is a single scene when Delores looked at Pepa as she realised she just hurt her mother ‼️‼️
-
Finally realized that the snapping sounds in the song were super sharp and almost ear piercing to show Dolores' pain and suffering to the listener. Kind of satisfying to hear, though.
