In its primary appearance, "Flower Fields" is played in E major by a single piano in 4/4; however, some of its remixes use different instruments and tonalities. The melody consists of an ascending tonic triad and a short cadence, first leading to the dominant, and then establishing E major again. The following section consists of growing intervals, more often than not with a shared note, primarily thirds and fourths or their inversions. The final part of the theme is a slowly ascending passage, and after it returns to the range of the initial triad, the track loops.
In its primary appearance, "Flower Fields" is played in E major by a single piano in 4/4; however, some of its remixes use different instruments and tonalities. The melody consists of a peaceful ascending tonic triad and a short cadence, first leading to the dominant, and then establishing the subdominant A major. The following section consists of rising fourths in C-sharp minor and its relative tonalities, eventually escalating to B major, the dominant of E major. The next part of the theme slowly ascends and is interrupted by a brief yet contrasting C and D Lydian major section, and after the ascending part repeats, the melody returns to the range of the initial triad and the track loops.


The version used in the credits has generally richer harmonies and plays in F major.
Among some noatble differences in the other versions are the following:
*The version in the title screen has a second section similar to "[[Grass Land (theme from Kirby's Epic Yarn)|Grass Land]]"
*"Toy Tracks" has a short introductory section. This version utilizes percussion and has a syncopated bass line. It plays in C major.
*"Tube Town" utilizes electronic instruments. The second theme dominates here while the primary one plays quietly in G major.
*"Outer Rings" plays in C major. It uses percussion and is lievlier in character.
*The version used in the credits has generally richer harmonies and plays in F major. Much like the title screen music, its slower middle section is reminiscent of other themes used in the game.
