When returning to the first loop, the electric guitar is kept during its initial verse.

==Spiral Mountain==
===Origin===
This song is an arrangement of the theme for Spiral Mountain, the introductory area of Banjo-Kazooie. Arranged by the original composer, Grant Kirkhope, the remix references the themes for other areas in both Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie, including Treasure Trove Cove, Freezeezy Peak, Gruntilda's Lair, Rusty Bucket Bay, and Mayahem Temple. It begins as a faster-paced, bluegrass-style remix of the original theme with a fiddle, piccolo, banjo, and tuba as the main instruments. When the first loop is complete, however, it becomes a triumphant orchestral arrangement, and returns to the beginning after an original refrain.

==Gobi's Valley==
===Origin===
This is a 1960's surf pop-style remix of the theme for Gobi's Valley, the sixth level of Banjo-Kazooie. Due to the difference in style, the instruments are also changed from the original, featuring tremulous, clean electric guitars and an organ in place of the original's shehnai lead and backing strings. An extended remix of the theme for Gruntilda's Lair is also included in the second half, transposed to the cut-time beat of the rest of the song. Towards the end of this section, the organs briefly play the alternate version of the Gobi's Valley theme that plays when Banjo is close to Jinxy the Sphinx.

==Trivia==
*Banjo-Kazooie is the first franchise where a non-Japanese musician arranged a theme. Coincidentally, it was immediately followed by in the same time frame.
**Series composer Grant Kirkhope was first hinted about the prospect of Banjo and Kazooie in Super Smash Bros. when Davide Soliani, creative director of the Switch-exclusive Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle (which Kirkhope also composed for), emailed him asking for his contact information on behalf of Nintendo. Kirkhope was initially skeptical, but accepted the offer anyway; upon learning that he was being asked to arrange music for Banjo and Kazooie's appearance in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, he was incredibly excited to return to the characters.
