Western Animation

• In the Central Park song Can We Do Today Again? Owen sings about how he messed up being a father when he thought he would do a good job while Paige sings about how she thought she earlier thought she doing a bad job being a mother and it turned out she was doing a good job. Owen wants this day to happen to start again so he would have a second chance and do it right that time. Paige wants the day to happen again so she can relive the joy of being so awesome.

• This Bob’s Burgers song is technically a trio, but 2 of the characters are on the same page, so close enough.

• In This Day Aria from My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic Chrysalis sings about how her evil plan is going as planned while Princess Cadance, a victim of Chrysalis’s evil plan sings about how Chrysalis’s plan is proceeding well. Obviously they have different dispositions on if they want the plan to succeed. Technically Chrysalis and Cadence have the same voice actor, but they are different characters so still counts.
