I love how megalovania is barely connected to any other track. It really emphasises that the genocide run is no longer neccesarily the same game as the rest of undertale, but something different entirely.

[@BonaparteBardithion]

I'd say that's because it predates the game's development by several years, but looking it up it's apparently not the only track to have originated in other projects. It's just the only one not to be deeply intergrated into other tracks, though maybe that's because it was so well known already.

[@kaelang12]

@@BonaparteBardithion megalovania is def old. it was first used by toby fox in a mod for Mother, and started to become a recurring song in his other projects. the song slaps, so it's just too good to not be used in different things

[@supernenechi]

@@BonaparteBardithion I doubt that's the reason. He could have used different parts of Megalovania in other songs instead, but not even "Song that might play when you fight Sans" contains any references to Megalovania, nor do any of the other Sans related songs or does it come back in songs like "Bring it in, Guys". I believe what the original commenter said is true, that Toby intended for the song to not be connected to anything during the normal runs because the genocide run is so different.

I never consciously noticed these connections, but i certainly felt them.

i personally feel like its part of what makes undertale special still today,. every character was given a motif and based on the characters who impacted each other or ambient "world sounds" made the songs and motifs feel like conversations with who each of the characters are and how their own world shaped them.

[@jay-virm]

People sometimes say Toby having a soundtrack that's basically 99% leitmotifs is lazy, but I don't think they realize how hard it is to actually have those leitmotifs play enough times where they become engrained in your memory but not too much that it becomes annoying. Every motif associates yourself with not just a character, but also an idea. Enemy Approaching associates itself with the monsters you face, then eventually to tracks like Ghost Fight, Dogsong and Temmie's tracks which become more friendly faces. Snowdin Town is friendly and inviting, so this theme makes you think of friends. You hear it on dates and you hear it with Asriel, someone who thinks you're his best friend. Ruins basically becomes the underground's secondary theme next to Once Upon A Time, almost like an anthem. It reminds you of your first introduction to it and eventually Undyne, who swore to protect and help free the underground. I could go on about how each theme being where could mean all sorts of things but that would take forever. The point is that Toby knows how to write a soundtrack that's memorable and associative.

Didn't go into this video expecting to cry but, man... Toby really melts these themes into your mind and then repurposes them in such a huge variety of contexts that its hard not to be overwhelmed by what you feel when you hear them.

[@Kaethelazy]

Toby literally makes us remember the themes We can hear a couple notes of fallen down or megalovania then have the exact timing where the song was played and almost the entire song in our heads. It's amazing when you're an undertale fan, even if you think you're past the whole loving the game thing you still have a bit of it in you 💀

[@Okami8437]

The connections of the leitmotifs really make you wonder, which song(s) did Toby make first to spiral out into the different variants?

[@lga4187]

My guess is that he simply hammered out a lot of those melodies on the piano before there were any songs

[@SillySausage902]

Fun Fact : Since Barrier is a reversed clip of Giygas' breathing sounds from Earthbound, this means that the Amalgamate Battle theme is a trap remix of a demonic entity breathing, which is weirdly fitting.

seeing how all the songs are connected is already cool but seeing which ones are connected is even cooler!

[@moonstone3008]

When I was listening to Asgore by itself for the first time and that little motif played, my brain went “that’s familiar”. It took me THIS LONG to realize it was from heartache, such a little touch from Toby that made it so much better!

[@symphonyoforder]

Very high quality, and I thought I knew nearly all leitmotives connection... The one that touched me the most was the fact that Small Shock is literally a part of Undertale's chords, and that make both songs even more beautiful. However, I always intepreted Amalgam's intro as reminiscent of that of BAaTH because of notes/rhythm similarity and, well, because both Undyne and the Amalgamates melt at some point.

[@LLGameShows]

Thanks so much! If you wanna support the channel, consider subscribing

[@NotSomeJustinWithoutAMoustache]

Yes, I'm actually surprised that wasn't included! If you speed up Amalgam you get the piano intro of BAaTH I think.

[@symphonyoforder]

@@NotSomeJustinWithoutAMoustache More or less, there are still notes that appear missing or changed, but I do feel like BAaTH based its intro on Amalgam, and then Power of NEO based its intro on BAaTH. In the end, all those 3 themes are about monsters close to Alphys that would experience death or falling down.

[@Eye-Of-The-Beholder]

5:21 The hotel having Leitmotifs of Hopes and Dreams makes SO much sense once you really that the hotel's fountain used to house the statue depicting what was very likely Asriel and Chara's fusion (the one with the musicbox that needs and umbrella)

You forgot Mad Mew Mew's theme when comparing Spider Dance. Also forgot about Dog Shrine/Casino leitmotif. But it's understandable, those are console exclusive, so I get why you didn't bother adding them. Overall, the quality and production of the whole video is really outstanding! Keep it up!

​@@LLGameShows Technically you forgot a few, but it's fine because they are only in the sound test room. The name of the songs are: "Happy Town", "Meat Factory", "Trouble Dingle", and "Gaster's Theme". There's also the two "Dog Test" songs being "Dance of Dog" and "Sigh of Dog". There are some other unused songs but these six are the most known (I think). (If you are curious here are the other song titles: "abc_123_a" - Used to be a message for data miners, but turned into a more jumbled mess after "f_part3" - Was meant to be another phase song for Omega Flowey "kingdescription" - A song meant for Asgore, sounds like a royal version of his pre-fight theme "smile" - Used in the secret room "entry 17" and is commonly said to be Gaster's voice "star" - An ominous sounding song that *kind of* sounds like His Theme slowed down.)
