And seeing as it’s a song you’ll be hearing a lot of– many players never even get through the first attack of the fight without dying the first few times they play– it has to be a song that won’t get old. Megalovania has all the themes of desperation and hysteria found in Sans during his fight. He has to make you too tired, too annoyed, to continue fighting him– he has to make you give up, and if he can’t do that, then he’ll trap you within the rules of the game and simply not let you take your turn.

He’s desperate and angry, and he understands more than any other character how to stop you. So he traps you in the most difficult fight in all of Undertale, no matter the Route. Allowing you to continue, to slaughter the rest of the Underground and maybe even the Surface, is something he cannot do.

Like in the Pacifist and Neutral Routes, he judges you– only this time he finds you guilty. Sans has become disgusted with your actions of killing everyone in the Underground, including his brother, Papyrus. It plays during the Sans fight– the Sans fight being the biggest in the Genocide Route besides maybe the Undyne fight but, unlike the Undyne fight, the Sans fight can only happen in the Genocide Route. Megalovania is fast-paced and utterly memeable– seriously, check out all the memed versions on youtube. You'll have a bad time fighting Sans, but not because of Megalovania

And its place in the game is important to drive forward the plot, so Your Best Nightmare earns number 6. Your Best Nightmare isn’t the most pleasant song to listen to, but it is memorable. It’s at the lowest point of the game, the all-is-lost, your new friends are gone and your only fate appears to be an endless cycle of death and resurrection at the hands of Photoshop Flowey. During this battle, Flowey becomes a disturbing photoshop monster with a design that, compared to the rest of the game, is utterly Lovecraftian in nature. Undertale is meant to resemble old 8-bit games and the like, but it always manages to turn your expectations around on you at the most effective moments. The Photoshop Flowey battle, too, is like nothing else in the game. This song plays during the Photoshop Flowey battle at the end of a Neutral Route (which can either end as a Neutral Route or goon to become a True Pacifist Route). It’s incredibly off-putting, with an obscure melody and an atonal bassline.

Your Best Nightmare is a song that doesn’t fit in with any of the other songs in Undertale.
