Undoubtedly, it is noteworthy that the award has been taken by a band of composers completely unrelated to Nintendo, owner of the original theme. Although we don’t know the company’s position on the matter, we can hope that they shouldn’t be too unhappy, as this could be another good publicity push for the excellent Kirby and the Forgotten Land, the hybrid’s most recent big release.
Be that as it may, if your curiosity is piqued, you can listen the winning song under these lines:
