''Megalovania'' is a song first composed by American composer Toby Fox, that he would remaster for multiple different series. The first appearance of ''Megalovania'' was within Toby Fox's ROM hack of ''Earthbound'', titled "''EarthBound: Halloween Hack"'', where it was used as the theme for the final boss, Dr. Andonuts. It was then reused for ''Homestuck Vol.6'', before being repurposed for ''Undertale'', which introduced the song to a wider audience. The song was used as another final boss theme, this time for the character ''Sans'', should the player choose to go down the ''"Genocide Route".'' The character Sans became widely popular, along with ''Megalovania'', to the point where ''Megalovania'' has become a running joke within several online communities. Many musical artists have created their own renditions of Megalovania published on platforms such as ''YouTube'', ''SoundCloud'', ''Bandcamp'', ''Spotify'', and even Online Sequencer, likely due to its simple and easy to recognize melody. The mass creation of fan-creations of ''Megalovania'' reached a point at which the title of the song itself is censored within Online Sequencer. According to data collated on a June 24, 2023 post by [[Eepic]] on the Online Sequencer Discord server, [https://discord.com/channels/274950581712322561/274950581712322561/1121880074644361309 "...around 0.693% of all sequences are megalos"].
