"CROWNED" (or "C-R-O-W-N-E-D") is a musical piece composed by Hirokazu Ando and serves as the battle theme of Magolor's second form, the final boss in Kirby's Return to Dream Land, and of Magolor Soul, the final boss of that game's Extra Mode.

Composition

"CROWNED" is an orchestral track composed of three sections.

• Section 1: main theme with elements of "Magolor, the Distant Traveler"
• Section 2: main theme in a higher key
• Section 3: "Green Greens" and "Kirby's Triumphant Return"
