In its original appearance, "King Dedede's Theme" plays in natural E-flat minor and 4/4, and is based on a single primary intonation, that being a descending minor third. This intonation can be found in the short dominant intro, and repeatedly throughout the melody, which plays twice in different registers. | In its original appearance, "King Dedede's Theme" plays in natural E-flat minor and 4/4, and is based on a single primary intonation, that being a descending minor third.

From ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' onwards, the theme is more frequently featured in C minor and has a new section. This first begins with a minor variation of "[[Peanut Plains (theme)|Peanut Plains]]" with more static phrasing. After it reaches its lower point, this continues with the middle section of "Peanut Plains", rhythmically modified to somewhat resemble the middle section of "[[Green Greens (theme)|Green Greens]]", before culminating in descending scale-like passages not unlike those from "[[Kirby's Triumphant Return]]", after which the base track loops. | From ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' onwards, the theme is more frequently featured in C minor and has a new section.

The descending passages are also occasionally used as an intro, such as in the Super Famicom version of ''Kirby's Star Stacker''. | ||
The new section introduced in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'' and brought back in ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]'' is also based on a more static version of "Peanut Plains", with the rhythmic qualities of the ''Star Allies'' version in particular giving a somewhat sassy tone to the composition. | |||
