Ripple Star: Stage Select[conjectural title] is a recurring theme that first appeared in Template:K64 while selecting one of Ripple Star's stages. It has since been remixed several times over the course of the series.
Composition
A Well-Earned Rest follows a simple 4/4 time signature with a single melodic bar in its simplest incarnations. It is notable for being a short song in most cases despite its prevalence in the series, since it was originally composed for a stage select screen (an area the player is not meant to spend much time in). Most subsequent uses of the track keep it short, though the version used in Kirby's Epic Yarn and Template:KEEY is a notable exception.
Appearances
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
This theme first appeared here, as the level select theme for Ripple Star. This version is somewhat loud and active in nature, featuring many layered flute-like instruments and percussion at a high tempo.
Kirby Super Star Ultra
This theme appeared in Helper to Hero's rest area, under the name Helper's Rest. This was the first instance of the theme being used in a more calm tempo with a relaxed instrumentation. It can be found as Music 93 in the Sound Test.
Kirby's (Extra) Epic Yarn
This theme appeared here as Dream Land's theme. It follows the mellow tone from the Template:KSSU version. Notably, this is the only version that uses a different key, and a glockenspiel is used as the primary instrument, backed by piano.
Kirby: Triple Deluxe
This theme appeared in The True Arena, as the rest point's theme. This track also follows the mellow tone from the Template:KSSU version, though it uses more elaborate instrumentation and features a bend in the tempo near the beginning and end of the track. This version is known as A Well-Earned Rest on the Kirby: Triple Deluxe Soundtrack CD.
Kirby: Planet Robobot
This theme appeared as the results screen theme for The True Arena under the name Well-fed Victory. It is similar to the version from Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, but with different digital-sounding instruments.
Kirby Star Allies
This theme was combined with Miracle Matter's theme and 0²'s theme for a remix in Kirby Star Allies. This remix is used for the fight against Morpho Knight when using Adeleine & Ribbon. As of Version 4.0.0, this remix can be heard as Track 178 of the Jukebox.
Other arrangements
Variants of A Well-Earned Rest have appeared outside of the games themselves. Two in particular appear on the Kirby 25th Anniversary Orchestra Concert CD set. The first comes from the Kirby's Dream Land 3 / Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards Medley and is the fourth part of the performance. The second comes from the Disk 2 track Epic Yarn and is the fourth part of the performance. Both take cues from their respective versions from the games represented in the medleys.
