"Bring On the Super Ability" is the musical piece that plays whenever Kirby gains a Super Ability in Kirby's Return to Dream Land. The theme was composed by Hirokazu Ando.
Composition
"Bring On the Super Ability" is a theme in 3/4 time and is in the key of C minor. Its melody features a repeated motif of three ascending notes played twice, followed by a descending triad (for example, the repeated ascending notes C-D-Eb-C-D-Eb, then G, then a descending triad of F-D-Bb). It appears to have orchestrated instrumentation. This theme seems to appear as a popular motif in this game, an example of this being the latter half of "Sky Tower". The theme also appears to use snippets of the Green Greens theme at around 0:25 and 0:36.
Game appearances
Kirby's Return to Dream Land / Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe
When Kirby gains a Super Ability, the music changes to this piece until he loses the ability, regardless of the cause.
An alternate version plays in the Ultra Sword segment of Dangerous Dinner - Stage 3, as well as in the Super Ability portion of the Grand Doomer fight. It is named "Ultra-Super Boss Battle". This version is higher pitched (performed in E minor as opposed to C minor) and sounds more intense than the original, containing additional instruments, such as rock guitars.
The theme is incorporated in the beginning of the track for the "Final Battle" cutscene, albeit with modifications near the end.
In Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, the theme is arranged, with traces of Welcome Your New Overlord, as the song that plays in Magolor Epilogue when Magolor atones for his misdeeds by striking down the Master Crown with his own version of the Ultra Sword. It is named "Settling a Score - Atone for One's Misdeeds!", and was arranged by Yuki Shimooka.
Finally, also exclusively in the remake, the "Ultra-Super Boss Battle" remix from Kirby's Dream Buffet is part of the "Secret Area: HAL Room (Kirby's Dream Buffet 2)" medley that plays in the HAL Room of Magolor Epilogue.
