The problem with The Evil Queen's new song, All Is Fair, from Disney's Live Action Remake of Snow White is NOT what you think. Calxiyn Cares Too Much breaks down why this time, it is not a matter of the (terrible) performance, or issues with the craft in the lyrics and composition. Instead, we will break down problems with the storytelling of The Evil Queen's song from multiple angles, and explain the problem with The Evil Queen's Characterization throughout the entire movie.
00:00 - 'All Is Fair' is worse than 'This Is The Thanks I Get?!' change my mind
1:30 - Why Songwriting Fundamentals Are WASTED Here (Composition, Instrumentation, Lyric Craft)
11:24 - How and why 'All Is Fair' fails this scene, this character, and this thesis.
38:12 - Key Lesson: Your Villains Must Be...
48:00 - Your Villains Must Show The Audience...

Calxiyn Cares Too Much is a professional musical theatre performer and songwriter who makes video essays about Live Action and Animated Musical Movies from the Walt Disney Company. This video essay is a deep dive on 'All Is Fair', The Evil Queen's new villain song from Disney's Live Action Remake of Snow White (2025). Calxiyn Cares Too Much discusses why 'All Is Fair' is one of the worst Disney Villain songs ever written (yes, even worse than 'This Is The Thanks I Get?!' from Disney's Wish), and talks about the failure of Disney to implement their own victim/villain dynamic written about in the Disney Villain Bible, which was written by Ollie Johnston and Frank Thomas. Through comparing The Evil Queen to Disney's older villains, and her impact (or lack thereof) on Snow White compared to the past Disney heroines/Princesses, we can see how Disney has a BIG villain AND hero problem!

Calxiyn Cares Too Much is a professional musical theatre performer and songwriter who makes video essays about Animated Movie Musicals. This video essay breaks down Happy Day In Hell from Season 1 of Hazbin Hotel, and why it fails as a musical theatre opening number/I Want song from a songwriting perspective. This video also provides a comparison between Hazbin Hotel, Wish, which is often brought up as better than Hazbin Hotel, or that Hazbin Hotel is doing the animated movie musical better than Disney - and other animated movie musicals such as The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Hunchback of Notre Dame from the Disney Renaissance.
