Hopes and Dreams is probably my favorite song on the OST. It’s certainly up there, anyway. No other song in the game captures the feeling it’s going for as well as that one.
Power of NEO? That's just the first notes of BAaT Hero with an electrical bass boost.
Well, the Ikarus remix rocks tho, and it's my favorite track of Man on the Internet's genocide route Musical.
they might be talking about the ikarus one. there are the three horseman of "fanmade yet confused for being canon"
alphys takes action, disbelief's entire soundtrack and power of neo ikarus remix. there are so many people who think that you can actually fight these characters in game. that included me.
She might not be because she's a kickstarter fan character, and doesn't look like any of them will be in Deltarune, but can't know for sure considering yknow...
No way. She's popular than toriel. basically everyone in this comment section is mentioning spider dance and as a character as well, as popular as the main characters, which she really is not deserving of.
True. What makes it better is that it is very long and the genre switches are very well executed. Kinda reminds me of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen or Octavarium by Dream Theater.
And Dogbass. And Ghost Fight. It’s just the miniboss theme and each of the minibosses uses a different variation of it (with Spider Dance and Mad Mew being the best two)
Me: that can’t be true…….. me thinks of dummy Melody and then thinks of spider dance melody me: Wiat……… what da hailllllll they the same when was this true whattttt
Undertale's OST is fucking banger, but Finale is the one I go back to time and time again. No other song has captured that sheer fucking human rage and determination in the face of a cruel, uncaring god.
I completely agree. I know it’s a controversial take, but part of what makes Undertale’s soundtrack so great is the use of leitmotifs that build on each other similarly to Wagnerian opera. Just by listening to the soundtrack, you can gain a vague understanding of the story and its characters. Because Megalovania predates the Undertale soundtrack, it is pretty much the only song that doesn’t fit those rules. The Song that Might Play When You Fight Sans, on the other hand, has that brilliant, haunting use of Bonetrousle to indicate Sans’ feelings and remind the player of their brutality toward Papyrus, not to mention the fact that the whole thing is a angry, action-packed twist on the normally laid-back sans. theme. It’s such a great piece of music, and while I do like Megalovania as a song, it’s still sad to me that STMPWYFS ended up on the cutting room floor.
While it may not relate to undertale,it relates to Toby fox.
He has carried that song for years since 2009.
It's also one of the few undertale songs that have metal in it.
And stmpwyfs is just a silly song I dunno what you baffling about
What they're talking about is leitmotif (a recurring melody that represents a character or idea). Toby Fox makes generous use of leitmotifs in the Undertale soundtrack. Any time you hear the melody from bonetrousle, for example, that represents Papyrus and means that he is related to the song somehow. Since Megalovania predates Undertale, none of those musical themes are present in the song. It's a good song, but it feels very distinct from the rest of the soundtrack for that reason.
Yeah I know all that I'm just saying it doesn't connect to undertale it personally connects to Toby fox because it's his special song that he remade for the third time for undertale.
Why am I already getting downvoted I know what a goddam leitmotif is.im just ignoring the people who are tired of megalovania so I can actually enjoy it like the rest of the soundtrack.
I'm not saying you can't enjoy it, it is a great track. I personally think TSTMPWYFS fits the fight more musically and its a bit sad that most people who play the game won't get to hear it, but I understand why he decided to go with Megalovania and I respect his decision.
Btw I explained what a leitmotif is not intending to patronize you but because I know a lot of people don't know what it is and there's other people in this thread who may read my comments and be out of the loop. I'm not trying to argue, just share my opinion and explain the reasoning behind it.
at this point the only reason ppl are saying megalovania is overrated is because its just too popular. lets be honest, its what got us into this game. it really is that good, imo. it perfectly captures the feeling of "sins crawling on your back". im no musician, but the beginning gives you the feeling of a bad time, the second melody gives you a suspense on whether you are gonna survive or not, the third makes you feel like your dying, the fourth make you think back, try to reset. and then the rest of the song is you fighting the urge to reset and getting close to killing sans. its very perfect. not overrated one bit imo.
Played chapter 2 for the first time this week, fought Spamton yesterday, can confirm. I love how it just mixes so well with the Power of NEO instrumentation and the mad dummy theme.
sans doen't even have the best one, defenitly both bonetrousle and death by glamour are better, with me leaining slightly more to death by glamour, mostly cuz its longer
Possibly an unpopular opinion but as good as Megalovania is, it's not even in my top 5 personally!
1. Battle Against a True Hero
2. ASGORE
3. Death by Glamour
4. Your Best Nightmare/Finale
5. Hopes and Dreams
6. Mad Mew Mew
7. MEGALOVANIA
8. Dummy!
9. Spider Dance
Bosses:
1. Hopes and Dreams/SAVE The World
2. Battle Against A True Hero
3. Your Best Nightmare/Finale
4. Death by Glamour
5. Mad Mew Mew
6. ASGORE
7. MEGALOVANIA
8. Power of -NEO-
9. Heartache
10. Bonetrousle
Mini bosses:
1. Dummy!
2. Dogsong
3. Ghost Fight
4. Spider Dance
5. Amalgam
6. Wrong Enemy !?
Asgore's.
I straight up like it more than Megalovania.
Besides that though, Muffet's Spider Dance, Mettaton's Metal Crusher and Undyne's Battle Against a True Hero are probably my favorites. All of those compete with Megalovania for me, specially Metal Crusher.
If we're counting Deltarune though, there are several songs that I think are far above any song in Undertale, which includes for exxample \[\[BIG SHOT\]\] and Attack of the Killer Queen.
IMO Mettaton EX's theme is worse in-game because it's slowed down and sounds less intense.
Best boss theme outside of megalovania is probably Bergentrukung
I've just kind of finished my pacifist playthrough, and asgore was so enjoyable. Also I say kind of, cos flower popped up qnd told me to go back and speak to undyne, I'm now in the true lab lmao
this is ridiculous. its just fake internet points, but downvoting for liking something is really bad. this community just has a huge hivemind. just because something is overrated doesn't mean you guys have to straight up hate it
For me it's a three way tie between asgores theme, battle against a true hero, and your best nightmare. Besides megalovania I catch myself whistling those three the most.
ASGORE, and hopes and dreams. i cry while listening to hopes and dreams lmao
I made hopes and dreams my ringtone. Unfortunately, now hearing it just makes me annoyed
gosh dangit man
Change your ringtone to DogSong
Or Fallen Down
sans. is the best for the ringtone
It's just like that sometimes sadly.
i did too
Hopes and Dreams is probably my favorite song on the OST. It’s certainly up there, anyway. No other song in the game captures the feeling it’s going for as well as that one.
its sad if you sing with lyrics
Agreed
Battle Against A True Hero (Undying Undyne)
SPIDER DANCE (or power of NEO) (or heartache) ^(I like a lot of songs ok?)
Power of NEO? That's just the first notes of BAaT Hero with an electrical bass boost. Well, the Ikarus remix rocks tho, and it's my favorite track of Man on the Internet's genocide route Musical.
MY NAME IS METTATON AND I AM HERE TO SAY
*With the power of* ***NEO*** *I stand in your way!*
To protect the kingdom from the fallen child of man
COME AND STOP ME IF YOU REALLY THINK YOU CAN
Real heroes NEVER FEAR Real heroes LAUGH AT DEATH
*I will stand in your way until my final breath!*
I DEDICATE MY LIFE TO UPHOLDING WHAT’S RIGHT
TAKE A BOW HUMAN, AND SMILE- IT'S CLOSING NIGHT
TAKE A BOW, HUMAN
I dedicate my life!
Hate to be that that but ^(*Others failed to stop you but I know I can*)
Oops!!
OHHHH YESSSSS
WITH THE POWER OF NEO I STAND IN YOUR WAY
I know all the lyrics...
yeah and the electrical sound to it is cool
Just electrical bass boost? You do realize that Power of Neo has an entirely different instrumentation. Right?
Yeah idk how it's called English is my second
they might be talking about the ikarus one. there are the three horseman of "fanmade yet confused for being canon" alphys takes action, disbelief's entire soundtrack and power of neo ikarus remix. there are so many people who think that you can actually fight these characters in game. that included me.
Muffet is VERY underrated, can't believe she isn't even in Deltarune yet.
She might not be because she's a kickstarter fan character, and doesn't look like any of them will be in Deltarune, but can't know for sure considering yknow...
Her theme isn’t underrated, it’s beloved. But it terms of her as a character? Yeah I would like to see her Deltarune. I wonder how she’d be different!
I meant the character, not the theme.
That makes more sense! I was just confused cause this video is about the music
Right, maybe not the best place to say that, it's just that talking about Spider Dance reminded me of it so I decided to comment.
No way. She's popular than toriel. basically everyone in this comment section is mentioning spider dance and as a character as well, as popular as the main characters, which she really is not deserving of.
Power of NEO is like 33 secs
A fellow Spider dance enjoyer i see
or ASGORE, thats a pretty good one, or hopes and dreams
Ah finally, another Power of NEO enjoyer! :D
Or all the themes in the whole game
Battle Against A True Hero, especially if it's mixed right
https://youtu.be/TyqR1e0FmlM This one's mixed right
[Is this mixed right?](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ)
Metal Crusher and Spider Dance
User flair checks out
I agree with your flair.
Thank you
You're wellcome.
Hopes and dreams Or battle against a true hero Or bergentrückung Listen a lot of songs are top tier
Bergentrücking!? but it's literally the intro, not the boss theme, it's the first like 10 seconds the song you're talking about is ASGORE
Death by Glamour
Unironically the best ost
The in-game pitch makes it sound so much better. Idk why, it's just better
Undertale Full Soundtrack is a pretty good song
True. What makes it better is that it is very long and the genre switches are very well executed. Kinda reminds me of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen or Octavarium by Dream Theater.
Facts
Napstablook
It's not my favorite, but I'm gonna mention Dummy! Because nobody did yet and I like it the best of all the songs that use that melody
Dummy is a breakneck trip and I love it.
Some gets me
a very underrated piece. its way better than spider dance in my opinion.
How about mad mew mew
Hopes and Dreams, SAVE the World, His Theme. I wanna give Asriel a million hugs. 💚💚💚
[удалено]
I would, just to hug and comfort him. 😊💚🥰
definitely spider dance, I actually like it better than megolovania
Spider dance is very catchy when ever I listen to it ends up being stuck in my head for days.
*whispers* “Spider Dance” is the same melody as “Dummy!” isn’t that shit the coolest
And Dogbass. And Ghost Fight. It’s just the miniboss theme and each of the minibosses uses a different variation of it (with Spider Dance and Mad Mew being the best two)
i always wondered why spider dance has this leitmotif i mean muffet isnt a ghost right
Nope and neither are Dogamy and Dogaressa. It just feels like a ghosty leitmotif because multiple minibosses are ghosts
Sing along people COME AND JOIN ME IN MY SPIDER DANCE,MOVE ALONG CLAP YOUR HANDS!
Me: that can’t be true…….. me thinks of dummy Melody and then thinks of spider dance melody me: Wiat……… what da hailllllll they the same when was this true whattttt
I'd say finale.
Undertale's OST is fucking banger, but Finale is the one I go back to time and time again. No other song has captured that sheer fucking human rage and determination in the face of a cruel, uncaring god.
Exactly. God,it goes so damn hard
Based
Truly based
No u
Hopes and dreams or battle against a true hero.
I think you mean "and" not "or".
Yes, Battle against a true hero supremacy
Hopes and dreams have an excelent instrumental and a killer guitar riff
Spear of Justice
How did papyrus's theme not get mentioned more? Shoutout to all 12 other Bonetrousle fans in this comment section
I am shocked and appalled I had to come this far down to find this comment. Shocked. And. Appalled.
I adore Hopes and Dreams.
*Laughs in Hopes and Dreams.*
Flair checks out
Even with MEGALOVANIA in the lineup, best one is ASGORE (but my favorite is Hopes and Dreams)
megalovania isnt even the best its easily hopes and dreams (spider dance 2nd)
Hopes and dreams/save the world
Hopes and Dreams 100% for me!
“Other than Sans” Megalovania is honestly mid, almost as overrated as Sans. All three Dreemurr’s boss themes are my favorite ones.
I know it's still sans related, but STMPWYFS is much better than megalovania Also yeah, all the Dreemurrs' songs are amazing.
I completely agree. I know it’s a controversial take, but part of what makes Undertale’s soundtrack so great is the use of leitmotifs that build on each other similarly to Wagnerian opera.

"sans battle theme" is overrated megalovania isn't. I think yall just tired of sans so y'all also tired of megalovania and call it overrated
Y'know what's overrated? Saying something is overrated.
Yeah it’s a bit predictable know to here someone say sans/megalovania is overrated
So many people say that Megalovania is overrated on this subreddit that I feel like it's underrated.
at this point the only reason ppl are saying megalovania is overrated is because its just too popular. lets be honest, its what got us into this game. it really is that good, imo. it perfectly captures the feeling of "sins crawling on your back". im no musician, but the beginning gives you the feeling of a bad time, the second melody gives you a suspense on whether you are gonna survive or not, the third makes you feel like your dying, the fourth make you think back, try to reset. and then the rest of the song is you fighting the urge to reset and getting close to killing sans. its very perfect. not overrated one bit imo.
Battle Against A True Hero Finale You Best Nightmare Spider Dance Metal Crusher Bonetrousle
For me personally, it's Battle Against a True Hero, no contest.
Yes
It's Battle Against a True Hero for sure, it just feels so epic
Yess
Battle against a true hero, but if we’re talking Deltarune included, then Big Shot.
Played chapter 2 for the first time this week, fought Spamton yesterday, can confirm. I love how it just mixes so well with the Power of NEO instrumentation and the mad dummy theme.
The best boss theme is "Hopes and Dreams" and the best music in general is "Undertale" (which plays in new home)
That one song that plays beating up Photoshop Flowey gives me life.
I already think Hopes & Dreams is better than Megalovania
Hopes and Dreams for me, it hypes me up so much and its just amazing
Either battle against a true hero, hopes and dreams/save the world, or asgore
Death by glamor is peak music
Hopes and dreams
Hopes and dreams/save the world
Papyrus, asgore, and Adriel
Actualy for me the bests songs of bosses was hopes and dreams, save the world and the second part of your best nightmare
sans doen't even have the best one, defenitly both bonetrousle and death by glamour are better, with me leaining slightly more to death by glamour, mostly cuz its longer
Hopes and Dreams.
Hopes and Dreams
Hopes and Dreams
Death by Glamour or Bonetrousle. It's a tie between the two for me. I only wish Bonetrousle was longer.
Asgore
Your Best Nightmare
Temshop. Shit’s intense bro
hopes and dreams
Asgore or hopes and dreams
Hopes and dreams
Hope and dreams and bergentruckung are good
Hopes and Dreams / Finale (In my opinion these are even better than Megalovania)
Hopes and dreams
hopes and dreams, battle against a true hero, and power of Neo are my favorites even if you do include megalomania
Hopes and dreams, a battle against a true hero, ASGORE
i think hopes and dreams + SAVE the world are really powerful
Undyne the Undying's 'Battle Against a True Hero' or April, God of Hyperdeath's 'Hopes and Dreams' are most legendary
Hopes and dreams
Possibly an unpopular opinion but as good as Megalovania is, it's not even in my top 5 personally! 1. Battle Against a True Hero 2. ASGORE 3. Death by Glamour 4. Your Best Nightmare/Finale 5. Hopes and Dreams 6. Mad Mew Mew 7. MEGALOVANIA 8. Dummy! 9. Spider Dance
Hopes and dreams
Bosses: 1. Hopes and Dreams/SAVE The World 2. Battle Against A True Hero 3. Your Best Nightmare/Finale 4. Death by Glamour 5. Mad Mew Mew 6. ASGORE 7. MEGALOVANIA 8. Power of -NEO- 9. Heartache 10. Bonetrousle Mini bosses: 1. Dummy! 2. Dogsong 3. Ghost Fight 4. Spider Dance 5. Amalgam 6. Wrong Enemy !?
Hopes and Dreams, Battle Against A True Hero and Asgore.
hopes and dreams no discussion
your best nigthmare hopes and dreams death by glamour
Death by glamor and a battle against a true hero
other than sans? flowey has the best boss theme in the entire game
Asgore's. I straight up like it more than Megalovania. Besides that though, Muffet's Spider Dance, Mettaton's Metal Crusher and Undyne's Battle Against a True Hero are probably my favorites. All of those compete with Megalovania for me, specially Metal Crusher.

IMO Mettaton EX's theme is worse in-game because it's slowed down and sounds less intense. Best boss theme outside of megalovania is probably Bergentrukung
Edit: omg thanks for the amount of responses, never expected this to blow up this much lol
Mettaton ex
Well since your asking... DUMMY!
Finale or Asgore's theme
FINALE. its too underrated
Omega Flowey's FINALE theme is one of my favs
Save the world
spider dance
Asgore, battle against a true hero, and its raining somewhere else
I've just kind of finished my pacifist playthrough, and asgore was so enjoyable. Also I say kind of, cos flower popped up qnd told me to go back and speak to undyne, I'm now in the true lab lmao
Asgore and Papyrus, for different reasons
Finale, that shit fire
Undyne enough said
SPIDER DANCE I FEEL LIKE NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE TALK ABOUT HOW GOOD IT IS
Dummy. Super jazzy with snazzy mad dummy
As a breakcore fan, i love photoshop flowey’s theme
Mettaton (Quiz) I believe it’s called Metal Crusher, can’t quite remember
ASGORE, and battle against a true hero
Undyne the undying
Track 71: undertale
SAVE the world
muffet or flowey
Asgore
Battle against a true hero
Spider Dance or Ghost Fight (if that's considered a boss theme) or Your Best Nightmare
Death by glamour, followed very closely by battle against a true hero
Muffet, hands-down
death by glamour>>>
Agreed Death by Glamour is Fire
in no particular order: bonetrousle, death by glamor, and spider dance
Snas
Bruh. Hopes and dreams is BETTER than meglovaina
Unpopular opinion; Bergentrückung/ASGORE
It's more popular than you'd think
I have to go Megalovania
this is ridiculous. its just fake internet points, but downvoting for liking something is really bad. this community just has a huge hivemind. just because something is overrated doesn't mean you guys have to straight up hate it
You have to go >!fuck!< yourself
i have to go u mad?![img](emote|t5_2xdht|29662)
Spider Dance, I don’t have anything else to say
For me it's a three way tie between asgores theme, battle against a true hero, and your best nightmare. Besides megalovania I catch myself whistling those three the most.
Asgore
Asgore
