- Undertale's soundtrack is absolutely incredible, so of course, it's time to do a tier list ranking the entire soundtrack! Hope you enjoy my 100% objectively correct opinions as the certified Undertale Loremaster. :3

Silly lil' guy.
I assume it's Ditchu. They're the one who drew 2 previous ones
It was Ditchu, you can see it in the desc :)
@@Redpenn_4 what? it's a cute froggit
"What is your favorite song?"
"NGAHHH!!"
"sorry what"
@@thatmagichatguy8761"what about "NGAHHH!!" do you not understand"
No my favorite song is Ooo
@@arch3r_istired i put it in quotes to try to convey that the person who intiated the conversation was very bewildered when the respondent responded that their favorite undertale song was an aggressive growling thing
Long elevator
Your point on Megalovania made me so happy lmao. Everyone pretending they never liked it now is so dumb.
I used to think it was overrated, but now I think it is a complete banger.
I think its Masterpiece to S+ tier, but i dont really know cos it just feels different from everything else somehow...
I personally would have put it in the middle of S+ but I absolutely agree with your point
For me, at least, it's *WAY* too overused, now, yet again, I am arguing with the wall, but like, when I was watching this video, I heard tunes I have never seen in the original tracks, because (first low attention span but second) sans's songs overpopulated the intire fandom, and, I'm about to commit an atrocity here, megalovania is an a tier
To be honest, I love Megalovania, but I won't put it in masterpiece personnally, but in S+
‘Hey bro, what’s ur favorite Undertale song?’
‘NYEH HEH HEH HEH!’
‘what the fuck’
I feel like undertale fans would understand
@@Lucas.pcport85 Lucas u fell down here too?
NGAHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
idk ‘Bird That Carries You Over A Disproportionately Small Gap’ kinda hits harder /j
My favorite song is long elevator
I wonder how he ranked my favorite song: '' long elevator''
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Spoilers: 17:31 😨😨😨😨😨
It is undeniably the best song in the game.
MASTERPIECE
My personal favorite is Bird That Carries You Over A Disproportionately Small Gap
19:40 - Undertale is a sound effect, and the effect is CRYING
did you mean a status effect?
@@somedude4087 its a joke kinda
@@-NotSomeone- I mean I get that
but I was also crying
@@somedude4087 ya sorry (vibing 🕷️🕷️🕷️song, my fave)
I refuse to listen to this song unless I'm willing to take the time to burst into tears-
"Fallen down, thats a solid A"
_Everyone hated that_
The starting a tier list syndrome. When you start a tier list you don’t want to use your top spot so you keep a little prestige to the spot
fallen down is just a worse version of fallen down reprise, same reason as why Once Upon a Time is ranked at A.
And?@@NottSaying
@@rileyinscoe3558 explaining why it was ranked lower
@NottSaying the problem isn't it being ranked lower than the other song, the problem is the tier it's in
22:00 Your Best Nightmare will always be my FAVORITE of the Undertale OST for this reason specifically, the unexpected DROP, it sounds so different BUT IN A GOOD WAY! goes unbelievably hard in my opinion.
it's so good, my favorite as well
@@oscarvaldez7750same
It’s a whole experience of a song, also my fav :)
your best nightmare i think its way better with only the flowey part but its still a banger
I think an undertale bullet pattern tierlist would be cool because enemies are kinda hard to rank imo I think just ranking what bullet patterns are the coolest would be really cool to see
Up

I approve of this comment
asriel immediately wins
Very cool idea!
Love that guy in chat that said "WHEN THE BONES ARE TROUSLING" when Bonetrousle played
*No response...
*but the distant trousle of bones.
"When the bones... are trousling!"
"Chips Ahoy is here for it!"
"Chips Ahoy! Here, for happy!"
ANTENONIO
she trousle on my bone till i nyeh heh heh
WHEN THE BERGEN IS TRUCKUNG 🗣🗣🗣
Despite MEGALOVANIA being overused to DEATH... it doesn't change the fact that it is a good song.
Its overused to death BECAUSE its GOATED
17:15 "069:" was preplaced by "hehe nice" for a second
i just can‘t listen to „your best friend“ without thinking about AI flowey saying „See that heart? No shit!“ 💀
See that heart? No shit!
See that heart, no shit
See that heart? No shit!
See that heart? No shit
See that heart? No shit!
maybe the real 'Undertale OST: 'Long Elevator'' is the friends we made along the way
When that one chat member said "good but not really my taste" to Spider Dance someone should have replied "maybe your taste... is exactly what this next batch needs"
Based. I love spider dance. Favorite song in the ost.
Dude honestly I’m glad I found someone else who sees another medium as a brilliant track, the part where it just spaces out and goes dramatic really puts you on edge in the game, but when listening casually has an almost determined like sound.
Another Medium is easily in my top 5. Most people think it's good, yet I still think it's underrated
fr bro
fr I love it
First he disappeared from the underground, now gaster has disappeared from the songs tierlist
As well as happy town, meat factory, and another one idk the name of
@@RuthlessDarknes5Trouble Dingle?
@@RuthlessDarknes5THE GAMBLING THING
@@_Hamler yeah i think it was that, ty
It’s because they’re not part of the official soundtrack.
Bergentrückung is actually a sound effect/cutscene theme because it's quite literally a transition into Asgore's battle.
I'd say it's more of a character theme, as Asgore's leitmotif didn't appear anywhere previously.
@@MoonriseMystery One could argue that Determination is Asgore's theme as well as Chara's theme.
@@derekstryder2281that kinda doesnt count tho
@@aykaraini always viewed His Theme as asriel’s theme and Memory as Chara’s theme cause it’s a gift from their only friend, so why can’t they also share a theme with their dad?
@@Stusheep yeah actually it does make sense now that i look at it again
19:15 megalovania jumpscare
My honest opinion:
Every single song: Masterpiece
B tier: Uwa, so heats
Literally r/fuckyouinparticular in a nutshell
@@Favouritegamfuck uwa so heats in particular
@@Favouritegamlol
I’m so so so happy songs that don’t often get enough love like CORE, Another Medium, and Stronger Monsters get a fair chance here.
Holy shit is that Goku in the thumbnail
Core/hotlands section of bring it in guys
actually i think CORE is liked by a lot of people :P
Is that goku
Goku falls into the underground, what he doing
@@ZekromAndYugiAndDrago123 he just goes back up
17:15 The title changing of For the Fans made me laugh.
obs:Put the video in slow mode.
@@WindofDetermination i saw it AND paused successfully for screenshoting. Skill issue?
mettaton creates an onlyfans
Hehe nice
something i really like about Finale is that towards the end, some notes get these really quick and erratic 8th and 16th note variations on what were single notes earlier in the song, but it never actually breaks the rhythm or progression in any meaningful way which always feels to me like a chaotic force trying to reassert control but failing to escape the steady 4/4 rhythm, and i think that just plays so perfectly with what's happening in that moment whether it's intentional or not
The problem with trying to rank every undertale song is that some just leave you so speechless that you are left paralyzed in your chair
“spear lesbian” - some random guy in shayy’s chat, 2024
i saw that to lmfaoo
I haven't watched this yet, but if Death By Glamour isn't in at least the top 5 I will be disregarding Shayy's opinions for the foreseeable future
It isn't in the masterpiece tier where it deserves to be, very sad :'(
@@ARandomIndieGameEnjoyer By far the best song from the official Undertale OST imo, sad it's not getting the respect it deserves😔
(NOTE: I specified "official Undertale OST" because if you count Megalo Strike Back I think it kinda maybe has a chance of beating out Death By Glamour)
@@rare_edamimi_fangirl My personal order of both Ost and non-Ost (you know what I mean) songs is 1. Undertale 2. Death by Glamour 3. Finale 4. Hopes and Dreams 5. Megalo Strike Back 6. CORE 7. Dummy! 8. Here We Are 9. In My Way (I'm not joking, I like the cool beat it has) 10. Mad Mew Mew (but this is just my opinion, feel free to disagree)
@@ARandomIndieGameEnjoyer Pretty good list, although I'm surprised Spider Dance is higher than Mad Mew Mew since Mad Mew Mew is kinda just an improved remake of Spider Dance
@@rare_edamimi_fangirl Oh, I forgot about that, I'll edit the list
I like how the Spongebob F.U.N. Song is one of the most important lietmotifs in undertale.
What is it floweys?
This was awesome, Finale in S+ Tier made me so happy 😎 Your Best Nightmare would be near the top for me, it's so catchy and it's great seeing how different Covers of the song sound like, haha.
Out of all of them, "His Theme" still hits me just as hard as it did back in the day.
tbh surprised finale didn't get masterpiece qwq
14:46 LMAO SOMEONE IN CHAT SAID MERG'S THEME
Aren't his theme was the absolute silence?
He would pay 50K for a the same Charlie Treatment to Verbalase but from muffet.
@@pixelcat29Except bro has more than embraced the meme.
MERG, PLEASE DO NOT THE SPIDER
PLEASE DO NOT THE SPIDER
11:28 funny story about "NGAHH"
Im not from a English speaking country and I had a friend how was interested in the game but couldn't fully understand it because he wasn't good at speaking nor understanding English
And ever time he read "NGAHH" he used to pronounce it with a space between n and g and also with a really hard g making it sound like the English n word
After I told him he started pronounce it but spelling each letter separately
Tldr: non English speaking friend though "NGAHH" was pronounce like the n word
Bro Same
Un amico acculturato
LMAO IM SAYING OUT LOUD ITS SO FUNNY
LMFAO WHAT
I actually played through Undertale recently with my friends (we did the voice acting. Every character’s voice morphed into something horrible, I’ll tell you that.)
And one of my friends did exactly this as they read for undyne, the only difference being that they’re a native English speaker.
5:29 clever use of papyrus, very clever.
I will forever remember this video for introducing me to the goldmine that is the SiIvagunner channel. Thanks Shayy
I dont believe that Megalovania is ovverrated, the problem is that once you've heard it the 700th time, you sort of stop caring
I know, right
Yeah, I understand what you said there😅
true
Ayy I see what you did there;)
Come back to it 10 years later
THAT THUMBNAIL IS SO FUCKING BEAUTIFUL
Ikr lol
g o k u
Loved the video ! Waiting for the ranking of deltarune music now !
ur reaction to the laugh and then start of your best nightmare sums up how i listen to cool music to my friends and im like “right here right here here we go”
can't wait for undetale yellow soundtrack tier list
YES
The fact that Specimen Clay gotta be the masterpiece tier
DUDE YES
ABSOLUTELY YES
Same
Woah new Shayy upload! I did not see this coming nor did I have any prior knowledge of this upload
Watching you rank _Long Elevator_ over _Ooo_ fills me with determination.
9:55 I never noticed that but it's GENIUS
I think it's a JoJo referance
You never did? During the battle, one of their dialogue went in sync with the theme and I noticed it right away
@@Jakecake95 i don't have that much brains
the fact that copyright is an issue says a lot about Sebastian Wolff
This is actually youtube's fault, there's nothing materia can do to not claim the songs, Sebastian still fits all the criteria for an over the top evil cartoon CEO though.
CZcams should just delete their copyright system entirely. Someone's using your music? Womp womp.
@SniperOnSunday do you know what copyright is
@@karlthedude I know exactly what it is. I also know that CZcams's copyright system regularly violates the Fair Use Act.
@SniperOnSunday then CZcams gets sued out of existence
16:23 Technically "Undertale" is the Area theme for New Home
Just like how Flock Together can be considered the theme for Lower New Home.
nah not really cos if you come back it doesn’t play. its literally the theme for the under-tale
@@Taffles-hh9cu Fair. It's definetly associated with new home, but yes, you are correct.
🤓🤓🤓 (this is a joke I agree with your statement)
Impossible. Every song would go in S Tier.
Wow! Good video, never seen before this idea of ranking popular games songs. Hope you to make another one with "A Hat in Time" music. 🎉
songs that could be in masterpiece tier but weren't:
-death by glamour
-battle against a true hero
-spider dance
-finale
-your best nightmare
-bonetrousle
(sorted by best to worst)
Another medium too imo
Finale got ROBBED.
@@tnsquidd yeah, but it's overshadowed by core
We are the same person @kuwejtyt1680
Amalgam too in my opinion, such a banger.
They are 100% correct (no sarcasm)

Waterfall, Another Medium, Core, Asgore, Finale, Hopes and Dreams, and Megalovania is just absolute masterpiece
1. agree
2. slightly disagree - B+ as it fits the new game asthetic well
3. disagree - your best friend tricks you into thinking flowey is just this cute character with no harm intentions, but also has that "something's wrong" kinda feeling. your best friend fits flowey really well, so i think it's an A
4. agree
5. agree
6. agree
7. slightly disagree - maybe B+ as it sets it up well, an anticipation for what the better track is

28. slightly disagree - cmon atleast it's a B+; it sets the scene well for a talking flower sans is talking about
29. sfx
30. agree
31. agree? - i would instead put it at S but S+ is fine, as the music itself is awesome
32. agree
33. agree
34. disagree - S, as, when you play the game for the first time, you're left thinking what for and why the statue is playing this really sad song. once you complete the game, you connect the dots, and realize it's connected to asriel, and it ties it together so well
35. agree? - it's not really a Beer, it's a B tier
36. agree - i may be biased because of shayy, since they pointed the 3 repetition out
37. slightly disagree - i think it represents the extremely empty life blooky has, and i think it's atleast B+

79. slightly disagree - S+ possibly even masterpiece, as it compliments the situation all too well; even i was frightened when i first heard it in gqme
80. slightly disagree - this is a masterpiece. the memory motif, the situation, thinking this really _is_ the finale of this hellhole of a bossfight, getting the courage from the 6 souls to finally kill flowey, one of the best tracks in undertale.
81. fat agree

Dude, amazing tier list! Love your vids man!
I was especially excited when I saw this in my recommended and was even happier when you ranked Before the Story. Before the Story and Undertale are my two favorite tracks in both Undertale and Deltarune, they just... bring me back. The Undertale soundtrack got me through some pretty tough times in life as well, so seeing you rank them ABOSLUTELY CORRECTLY was amazing!
Keep up the great work man!
i will never recover from shay putting amalgam nowhere higher than s
oh shit it's omori
the Bassline is so chewy i love it. I’m literally thinking on making harmonies to MOTI’s “Here We Are” to the tune of the Amalgam bassline
the Bassline is so chewy i love it. I’m literally thinking on making harmonies to MOTI’s “Here We Are” to the tune of the Amalgam bassline
I’m not sure if Shayy’s shown musical knowledge before and I just missed it but as someone who does music myself it makes me so happy seeing him make comments on things like how Spear Of Justice increasing pitch keeps energy flowing, along with random fun facts like that Mad Dummy one (which I never noticed before). Makes the tierlist much more engaging :D
Ain’t no way you didn’t put “Battle Against a True Hero” in masterpiece, it’s definitely the 2nd best song in the game and the best battle theme in the game
Really says a lot about this game's soundtrack when they put B tier as the lowest tier (besides cutscene songs)
Man I really like the way you talk about music, you seem to know your shit. Also the Dummy! thing with the three times is genius.
I love the new thumbnail style I am a sucker for a good pixelart :>
Core approach may be a sound effect, but I think it's one of my favorite songs in the soundtrack. Das a banger
Shayy, I just gotta say, your content is so entertaining. Your videos always feel genuine and you're not afraid to be silly, which I really appreciate nowadays! I look forward to seeing more videos of all kinds from you. ^^
Been here since the era of Shayy doing active speedruns.
Safe to say I love your content and so glad people are finally recognizing your work!
ngl, i really enjoyed your little sing along to Fallen Down, you have a nice voice
update: same goes for Determination
update 2: lets just say it goes to all things you sing along to lmao
Dude I’m so lucky I came when it just uploaded today because I really wanted to see an undertale song tierlist
Hi shayy! It was nice to see you on Cibles stream!
I love these tier lists glad to see someone do undertale songs much appreciated 🎉
17:52 and 25:55 Undertale and His theme are moments where the game just says "You survived so much, prepare for my most powerful attack! prepare for FEELS!" as two heart-wrenching yet hopeful songs start playing
7:00 shout-out to the guy who put "NPESTA" in the chat
Gd community is immortal
I was wondering if anyone thought the same and it looks like I’m not alone lol
B-b-b-b-bbut streamer w-w-whatt about the s-sound test songs..?
(Keep up the good work! This was one of the most enjoyable tier list i have experienced in my opinion, keep it up!)
Don't worry Napstablook maybe next time :)
ngl this entire stream taught me a lot about music, thanks shayy
28:45 no cuz fr i once said that i love megalovania on undertale reddit and i got downvoted lmao
i saw a lot of posts there in which ppl were complaining about megalovania being overrated and "bad"
and i was so surprised because I NEVER saw anyone else say that outside of reddit
I love how including different motifs and melodies has so many deep lore implications depending on the context. I think UT, UTY, and DR all have really robust soundtracks in that regard.
Also cool stuff with the Dummy! lore/repetition
The TRUE OFFICIAL tier list of all songs!
I haven't seen one of your vids since you had around 3k subs. It's crazy to see the growth in quality and community.
25:01 just here to say that planetdan4 is hard rn
nice tier list! looking forward for a deltarune ost tier list
the thumbnail goes so hard 🔥
my guy put a :3 in the description, you know this gonna be a fire tierlist
"listen to bangers and bang to listeners"
Great. NOW DO DELTARUNE AND THEN UNDERTALE YELLOW
Great tierlist!
21:28 Bro is having the time of his life every time he speaks Flowey
5:20 Did anyone notice the font change?
Makes sense.
relistening to all of these managed to make me emotional even if I've listened to them a hundred times
This man is unironically becoming one of my favorite CZcamsrs. Shayy singlehandedly got me back into the Undertale fandom
Last Episode! is genuinely my favourite Undertale track, and it's an 8 second sound effect. I just adore it, the anticipation and sheer drama in those chords is insane.
18:41 I think the instrument in the back that echos is actually a drum being hit on the rim with an echo effect, not sure tho
I never realized I had so many of these songs stuck in my brain
Love this editing style keep videos like these up
I wanted to comment on a few songs I really love and why,
Home has this feeling of somberness, like someone who isn't going to cry, but maybe should, especially with the long pauses, or like a parent who cried but doesn't want their child to know.
Home with music box has a totally different mood even though its basically the same, its the calm and the hope, the childhood and everything. I love it and how it relates to the "home" theme
Tracks like Enemy Approaching and Ruins are great! but taken a step back for me personally (to listen to) because of how the track is used a lot, but still great music.
You are so right about Heartache, its underrated as hell
Uwa so holiday makes me feel like I made it home, like whatever happened today, I know I'm safe with my family kinda feel
Undyne is a great track that includes that "rushing wind" feel I love a lot and feel is Undyne's symbol, it also does a great job at saying "YOU SHOULD LOOK OUT FOR THIS PERSON"
Something I never noticed about Waterfall is that, in the mid/end of the song, there's a feel that I can only describe as footfalls
Alphys has one of my least favorite A sections but one of my favorite B sections and C sections
Lots of the later songs, Core, Stronger Monsters, Another Medium, Bring It In Guys, etc. are simply amazing, great sounds, lead-ins, etc etc.
Great video! Personally, I’d put Your Best Friend in B+ because I think it does a great job of being happy, but also sinister and ominous. But maybe I’m just bias because Flowey is my favorite character. :P Keep making awesome and funny videos Shayy!
Shayy singing with these songs was actually really nice
Don't feel like watching this video rn but I need to tell you the thumbnail is the best thing I've ever seen
i had no idea you had such an interest in music theory!! based streamer frog. also PLEASE do this with dr ch1&2 i'm very interested to know your thoughts on that ost too cuz toby's music really evolved between ut and dr.
24:23 “Theme of divorce”😂
cool video, me like. i got a question.
have you ever been interested in doing a video about undertale's AUS, whether it be a ranking video or just your own thoughts on them.
if finale doesnt go in masterpiece tier i dont know what i'll do
.....same
its in S+. its over finale fans.
I feel like if you just listen to it normally it'd be between Top S+ and Masterpiece, but the fact you listen to it after having to endure 2+ minutes of a distorted "your best friend" and actually feeling like the tide has turned is what makes it a true Masterpiece
8:59 fun fact about Quiet Water: the chords are literally the Windows error sound effect in a lower pitch
23:37 i love this feeling like "hey, its bad ending, go back and try to do something different"
It's Raining Somewhere Else had a death grip on me for years
I have the longest and busiest day at my job today (graphic design for a party supply company) and was like "ok I need a good video to get my day going"
