"Results (1st − 4th Place),"[1] also known as "Winning Results,"[2] "Result #1 (Win),"[3] or the "Results Theme,"[4] is a musical theme composed by Kenta Nagata for Mario Kart 64, where it plays after the player finishes a Grand Prix race in first to fourth place.
Due to a binary counter glitch in the game,[citation needed] the second half of the theme does not play until the first half loops 64 times, after which the second half loops twice and returns to the first.

Mario Kart World[edit]
In Mario Kart World, all five of the results themes, which play after the player finishes a race, incorporate brief arrangements of "Results (1st − 4th Place)" at the start of their melodies.
The theme that plays when placing in first plays the melody on a saxophone. At about 5 minutes and 43 seconds, an entirely new section plays, possibly referencing the original theme's glitch. This section also loosely quotes "Dolphin Shoals (On the Sea)" from Mario Kart 8. The themes that play when placing in second to ninth place and after finishing a race in Rainbow Road are near-identical to the first place version, except they use an organ and EWI respectively instead of a saxophone.
The theme that plays when placing in tenth to eighteenth place is slower and less up-beat, and uses a trumpet for its melody. When placing in nineteenth to twenty-fourth place, the trumpet is replaced by a harmonica.
A full, faithful arrangement of "Results (1st − 4th Place)" can play in Free Roam. It also incorporates quotes of "Underground BGM" from Super Mario Bros. in its bassline.
