"Grass Land (1)" is the very first stage theme in Kirby's Dream Land 3. It was composed by Jun Ishikawa.

Composition

Kirby stands in the merry fields of Grass Land.

"Grass Land (1)" is a happy, upbeat tune with a BPM of around 180. The beginning of the song is in C major, and sounds similar to "Green Greens". Then, after the intro, it introduces its main melody. For a brief time afterwards, it goes into its minor key (E-flat major), but then goes back into its major key and plays the main melody two times (first with an organ-like instrument, then a synth-like one). Afterwards, it goes into the minor key part again for a bit longer until it loops again.
