"Peanut Plains"[2] is a stage theme from Kirby Super Star. This theme is a popular motif in Kirby Super Star, along with Kirby's Triumphant Return, and can even be heard in the latter half of both of the Gourmet Race themes.
Composition
Peanut Plains is a moderately fast theme that is primarily in the key of C. The intro of the song has the bass of the song in Ab major that goes a whole step up (Bb Major). It does this again (with more instruments), but this time, it goes to the key of C. The first portion of the theme plays the main melody, which has its famed motif. It plays this another time, but ends with a C note. On the second portion, it goes to E-flat major with a somewhat slower melody. After this portion, the song loops.

A variation of this song can also be heard in the intro of The Great Cave Offensive. This one has a slower melody, and has different instruments.
