"Break Free (Lead the Way)" (listed in-game as "Honeylune Ridge: Escape" ), a super-upbeat rock track that plays over the last part of the climactic Escape Sequence."Honeylune Ridge: Collapse" is an utterly frantic, anxiety-building track loaded with swathes of dissonant chords, perfectly capturing the desperation of escaping the collapsing caves on the moon to its surface."Honeylune Ridge: Wedding Hall", a not-so- Ominous Pipe Organ piece that perfectly fits the climactic lead-up to the final battle, to the point that it makes you want to shout "I OBJECT!" as Mario and Cappy bust the door open."Honeylune Ridge: Caves" is an epic rock theme that perfectly fits heading to the final battle with Bowser through a gauntlet of obstacles."Bowser's Castle 2" combines jazz and traditional Japanese instruments to create a distinctive and epic theme for Mario to wreck Bowser's home turf by, and the nods to Mario 3's final boss battle theme are an awesome added touch.Really strikes the right balance between calming and adventurous. "Bowser's Castle 1" is very different from his previous level themes, but absolutely awe inspiring in the level its played in.And here it is, albeit extended, with the piano! Sadly, this wasn't included in the Music List. It's a little minimalistic, but it's awesomely threatening. The result is something that wouldn't sound too out of place in The Legend of Zelda. "Shiveria: Town" is a theme that seamlessly blends the feeling of Christmas with the sound of traditional Scandinavian music. It's made even better in-game by the crowd (and Mario, if you leave him alone) dancing to it. "NDC Band Performance" is the main theme of the series (aka the classic overworld theme from the original Super Mario Bros.) done in an incredibly catchy Big Band style.
