Charmings vs. Evil Queen (2024)

"Charmings vs. Evil Queen" is a song performed by Snow White, Prince Charming and the Evil Queen in ABC's Once Upon a Time musical episode, "The Song in Your Heart". The song is a rendition of Snow White & Prince Charming's "Powerful Magic" and the Evil Queen's "Love Doesn't Stand a Chance". It is the last song to be featured in the flashback.

Having broken into the Evil Queen's castle, the Charmings are confronted by her. After sarcastically congratulating Snow White on her pregnancy, the Queen prepares to attack. However, the Charmings begin singing and the Queen sings back, all the while failing to ignite fireballs to harm them. They corner the Queen, but she informs them that their spell will be broken, pulling out the box Zelena sent her and seals away the singing spell.

Lyrics[]

Snow White & Prince Charming: There's a powerful magic
When two hearts are one
A powerful magic
Bright as the sun

Goodness will triumph, and evil's undone
When you dare to heed love's call

Cause love is the most powerful magic of all

Evil Queen: Down with love, down with hope
Don't need blind faith to cope
Or inspiring songs in my heart

Got the magic I need
For my darkest of deeds
Love at times can entrance
But love doesn't stand a chance
No, no, love doesn't stand a -

Snow White & Prince Charming: It's a powerful magic
When two voices soar
We're ever more hopeful
For what lies in store

Evil Queen: Once I loved and once I learned
Love is weakness
Love will leave you burned

Snow White & Prince Charming:
Nothing will stop us, no not anymore
With our daughter's fate at stake
Seems like we found a lucky break
Now let our song show the powerful magic
We can make

Evil Queen:

Happy endings you will see
Your happy end will end with me
Love doesn't stand a chance

Evil Queen: Got you where I want you now
Your spell will soon be broken
Let us see how strong you are
When everything is spoken

Trivia[]

It's not the singing spell that keeps fizzling out Regina's fireballs. When Regina was defeated and captured previously, Snow White wanted to test if there was any good left in her; Rumplestiltskin provided a test that Regina failed, preventing her from harming the Charmings in the Enchanted Forest.
After the song, Regina noted that she found the box that sealed away the magic in her vault, suggesting that Zelena's magic is strong enough to send objects through realms.
