Green Greens
- This article is about the musical piece entitled "Green Greens". For the stage of the same name featured in the Super Smash Bros. series, see List of stages debuting in Super Smash Bros. Melee § Green Greens.
"Green Greens" is one of the most common themes featured in the Kirby series, originating in its debut game Kirby's Dream Land and composed by Jun Ishikawa.
History[edit]
Super Smash Bros. series[edit]
In Super Smash Bros. Melee, the theme received an orchestral arrangement by Hirokazu Ando, which also incorporates "Kirby's Triumphant Return" at the end, the theme that plays at the end of Milky Way Wishes from Kirby Super Star. This arrangement reappears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, another arrangement, "Green Greens Ver. 2", was added. This arrangement was done by Masashi Hamauzu and also returned in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
The Green Greens leitmotif is also incorporated into several other arrangements, particularly "The Legendary Air Ride Machine" from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, "The Great Cave Offensive" from Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and "Staff Credits - Kirby's Dream Land" from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Green Greens is also featured as a playable song in Donkey Konga 3 under the name "Hoshi no Kirby: Yume no Izumi no Monogatari". Specifically, it is a direct port of the version of the song that was used in Kirby's Adventure (arranged by Hirokazu Ando), during the stage that paid homage to Kirby's Dream Land. The song ends by playing the "Kirby Dance" theme that plays when levels are cleared in the Kirby series.
