Time for the Results

"Time for the Results" is the primary results screen theme fromKirby's Return to Dream Land and several subsequent games. It was composed byHirokazu Ando.[1]
Composition[edit]
"Time for the Results" is a short track in C major and 4/4, played by a clarinet and accompanying strings. It is based primarily on a "Four Adventurers: Cookie Country" theme, which makes up the first half of the track. Connecting it to the second portion are descending intonations; the final phrase, a rising triad played by a flute, is derived from "Green Greens", specifically "Kirby's Triumphant Return", which gives the track the expected triumphant character.
"The Victor Shines" is largely the same as "Time for the Results", albeit significantly slower and with slightly different instruments.
Game appearances[edit]
