Hey! I wanted to let you know, as a courtesy, about two edits to the Undertale Soundtrack pages that I plan to make along with my reasoning:

One is about the leitmotif first heard in “It’s Showtime!” which you had named “Showtime”, which I had previously identified as part of Mettaton’s leitmotif, which in turn is first heard in its entirety in “Metal Crusher”. “It’s Showtime” is actually an alternate version of the first portion of “Metal Crusher”, transposed four half-tones down and mode-changed from major to minor. I plan to change the name of the “Showtime” theme back to “Mettaton”, making it a part of his entire theme. I would also be fine with leaving “Showtime” be and simply adding it to “Metal Crusher” too, if you would prefer that.

The second one is about what to name the reoccurring leitmotif in “Enemy Approaching”, “Dogsong”, “Temmie Village”, etc., which you’ve named back to “Battle”. My issue with that name is that it occurs in many songs that don’t involve battles at all, particularly whenever the Annoying Dog appears and whenever Temmies appear. Since it appears in three seemingly unrelated and disparate contexts, I plan to rename it to “Battle/Dogsong/Temmie”.

As a fellow lover of leitmotifs and reoccuring musical themes, though, I think we’ve done a great job cataloguing all of them. Toby is an amazing composer, isn’t he?
