1Some ClosingCredits do not have their own specific background music, but rather feature a {{medley}} of various music pieces from the movie/game. These pieces could be direct copies of the original score or be remixes of the same, in which case it also serves as a RepriseMedley.
2
3Doesn't really count if it's just an expanded mix of just one prior music piece, direct or remixed.

10[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
11* The end credits music for Disney's ''WesternAnimation/{{Dinosaur}}'' combines pieces of "The Egg Travels", "Aladar and Neera", "Breakout/It Comes With a Pool", "Raptors/Aladar Meets the Herd", and "Inner Sanctum/The Nesting Grounds".
12* ''WesternAnimation/IceAgeTheMeltdown'' mixes three tracks from the movie: "Mini-Sloths Sing-A-Long", "The Meltdown", and "Mammoths".
13* ''WesternAnimation/TheRescuersDownUnder'' features an excellent end credits piece using the score's main themes.
14* ''WesternAnimation/RecessSchoolsOut'' was going to use one, until with the other two songs in the credits, they didn't need it. It was later released on the movie soundtrack.
15* The credits music of ''WesternAnimation/TheSuperMarioBrosMovie'' is made up of a "best-of" mix of reorchestrated themes from the franchise at large.
16* The second part of the credits for ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory1'' combines pieces of "Woody and Buzz" and "Infinity and Beyond".
17* The end credits for ''WesternAnimation/BluesBigMusicalMovie'' used a medley of previous background music used for the credits in other episodes.
18* In ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'', the credits contain all the 4*Town songs in their entirety plus the track "Meilin Lee" from the score.
19[[/folder]]
20
21[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
22* All the ''Franchise/StarWars'' movies. Though in the credits for ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'', the only piece that was written for the movie was ''Battle of the Heroes'': the rest is taken straight from ''Film/ANewHope'', tying both trilogies together.
23* Music/JohnWilliams is quite fond of this. Notable example: the closing credits from ''Film/HarryPotterAndThePrisonerOfAzkaban'', which consisted of ''seven'' themes from the film back-to-back. And was awesome.
24* ''Film/BatmanBegins'' and ''Film/TheDarkKnight''.
25* ''Film/ConanTheBarbarian1982'' by Music/BasilPoledouris
26* The end credits of ''Film/StarTrek2009'' are a mashup of the new theme ("Enterprising Young Men") and Alexander Courage's original "Theme from ''Star Trek''".
27* ''Film/StarTrekVITheUndiscoveredCountry''
28* ''Anime/FinalFantasyVIIAdventChildren'' plays a character theme medley over the credits.
29* The ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture'' sequels. As an example, ''[[Film/BackToTheFuturePartIII Part III]]'' features a suite with the film's Western theme, the love theme, and the train theme sandwiched by the main theme of the series.
30* ''Film/MastersOfTheUniverse''.
31* ''Film/IndependenceDay''.
32* The theatrical release of ''Film/TheAbyss'' was the first Creator/JamesCameron film ([[Film/{{Titanic 1997}} but not]] [[Film/{{Avatar}} the last]]) to feature double-column/speeded-up end credits on account of all the people involved, so Music/AlanSilvestri's end credit suite features "Finale," a lot of "Bud On The Ledge" and the ending of "Back On The Air" [[spoiler: (the music for Bud and the aliens heading to the surface)]] without the choir. When it was released on video, it had a slower and one-column only roll which therefore lasted much longer, and had a much longer suite to match made up of "Finale," "The Pseudopod," "Resurrection," a reprise of the first part of "Finale" [[spoiler: (for the spire rising scene)]], and the excerpts from "Bud On The Ledge" and "Back On The Air."
33* ''Film/TeamAmericaWorldPolice''
34* ''[[WesternAnimation/{{Nine}} 9]]'' uses a medley of themes from the film, mainly ''Winged Beast'' and ''Burial'', with a remix of ''The Machines'' at the beginning. It does not appear on the official soundtrack, possibly because end credits medleys tend to not appear on soundtrack albums if they're edited together from already recorded cues (the Intrada issue of ''Franchise/{{RoboCop}}'' is an exception); Williams' Credits Medleys are usually also {{RepriseMedley}}s.
35* In all three ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'' movies, after an AwardBaitSong, there's a medley of music for the film, including some deleted and never heard before pieces. The Extended Editions add from 10 to 20 minutes of additional music over the Fan Credits. ''Film/TheHobbit'' seems to be following the same pattern.
36** Some of that additional music was recorded especially for the credits. ''[[Film/TheLordOfTheRingsTheFellowshipOfTheRing Fellowship]]'''s ''[[http://youtu.be/evHF0WRagtc?t=30s In Dreams]]'', heard right after Music/{{Enya}}'s "May It Be", might or might not count[[note]]Its placing in the OST hints that it might have been intended to play over the last scenes of the movie.[[/note]], but ''[[Film/TheLordOfTheRingsTheReturnOfTheKing The Return of the King]]'' has a {{homage}} to [[Music/RichardWagner Wagner]] [[http://youtu.be/Uxt2jb_r_VQ?t=9m51s at the end of the theatrical cut's credits]], plus a whole song called ''[[http://youtu.be/OJQmsKgqF0A Bilbo's Song]]'' at the end of the Extended Edition's Fan Credits.
37* ''Film/{{Serenity}}'' uses one of these, finishing with "You Can't Take the Sky from Me", the theme song of the original ''Series/{{Firefly}}'' TV series.
38* ''Film/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory'' features all five of the film's musical numbers (the puppet show and the four Oompa-Loompa songs) in an extended, mostly instrumental medley.
39* ''Film/{{Popeye}}'' ends with a lushly-orchestrated instrumental medley that includes "I'm Popeye the Sailor Man", "I Yam What I Yam", "I'm Mean", and "He Needs Me".
40[[/folder]]
41
42[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
43* ''Series/{{Skins}}'' does this at the end of season 2 to Wild World to shockingly poignant effect.
44* ''[[Series/WaltDisneyPresents The Wonderful World of Disney]]'' features a medley of Disney songs over the credits.
45* The MediaNotes/AcademyAward ceremony has ended on one of these since the early 1990s, combining famous orchestral movie themes with instrumental versions of songs: "Hooray for Hollywood" (serves as {{Bookends}}), "That's Entertainment", the main theme from ''Film/ETTheExtraTerrestrial'', "Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing", [[Theatre/{{Oklahoma}} "Oklahoma!"]], [[Film/TopGun "Take My Breath Away"]], the themes from ''Film/ChariotsOfFire'', ''Born Free'', and ''Around the World in 80 Days'' (1957), [[Film/BreakfastAtTiffanys "Moon River"]], [[Film/MaryPoppins "Chim-Chim-Cher-ee"]], [[Film/{{Arthur 1981}} "Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)"]], [[Film/FoulPlay "Ready to Take a Chance Again"]], [[Film/{{Fame}} "Fame"]], [[Film/{{Flashdance}} "Flashdance...What a Feeling"]], [[Film/{{Rocky}} "Gonna Fly Now"]], [[Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk The Raiders March]], and the ''Franchise/StarWars'' main title. It's never been updated, possibly because genuine movie theme songs with lasting appeal have been relatively rare since the 1980s.
46[[/folder]]
47
48[[folder:Music]]
49* The title track of Music/{{Nightwish|Band}}'s ''Imaginaerum'' concept album functions as this with full orchestra only versions of different parts of the album.
50[[/folder]]
51
52[[folder:Theatre]]
53* Many stage musicals do this with their outmarches (also known as exit music).
54** ''Theatre/{{Annie}}'' uses an abridged version of the MedleyOverture as exit music.

62** ''Theatre/FlowerDrumSong''[='s=] exit music uses "You Are Beautiful" and "Grant Avenue."
63** ''Theatre/{{Follies}}'' reuses the MedleyOverture up to the sixth bar of "Rain on the Roof," but segues immediately to "Beautiful Girls."
64** ''Theatre/FunnyGirl'' uses "Don't Rain on My Parade" and the "People" coda for the curtain call, and then "I'm the Greatest Star," "People," "You Are Woman, I Am Man," "Rat-Tat-Tat-Tat" and one phrase of "The Music That Makes Me Dance" for exit music.
65** ''Film/{{Gigi}}'' (the ScreenToStageAdaptation) uses "Thank Heaven For Little Girls" and the Can-Can "At Maxim's" for exit music.
66** ''Theatre/HelloDolly'' uses "Put On Your Sunday Clothes," "It Only Takes A Moment" and the title song for exit music.
67** ''I Can Get It For You Wholesale'', after using "Ballad Of The Garment Trade" for the CurtainCall, has an exit medley of "The Sound Of Money," "Who Knows" and "Have I Told You Lately?"
68** ''Theatre/IntoTheWoods'' exit music is a jazzy version of "Last Midnight".
69** ''Theatre/TheKingAndI'' uses "I Whistle A Happy Tune" and "Shall We Dance?" for exit music.
70** ''Theatre/LaCageAuxFolles''[='s=] exit music uses the title song and "The Best Of Times."
71** ''Theatre/LegallyBlonde'' uses "What You Want" and "Legally Blonde".
72** ''Mame''[='s=] exit music uses "Mame," "Open A New Window," a short bridge of "My Best Girl," "If He Walked Into My Life," "We Need A Little Christmas" and the title song again.
73** ''Theatre/ManOfLaMancha''[='s=] exit music uses "Little Bird," "Dulcinea" and "The Impossible Dream"
74** ''Milk and Honey''[='s=] exit music uses the title song, "Independence Day Hora," "Shalom" and "Chin Up, Ladies."
75** ''Theatre/TheMusicMan''[='s=] exit music uses "It's You," "Lida Rose," "Goodnight, My Someone" and "Seventy-Six Trombones."
76** ''Theatre/MyFairLady''[='s=] exit music uses "I've Grown Accustomed To Her Face," "With A Little Bit Of Luck," "On The Street Where You Live," "Get Me To The Church On Time" and the coda of "Wouldn't It Be Loverly."
77** ''No Strings''[='s=] exit music is a swinging medley of "The Sweetest Sounds," "Maine" and the title song.

83** ''Theatre/SouthPacific''[='s=] exit music uses "Some Enchanted Evening" and "Bali Ha'i."
84** ''Theatre/TanzDerVampire'' manages to break the fourth wall with theirs- the final song of the show represents the vampires symbolically accepting and turning their audience, and the majority of the exit music that begins playing as the likely stiff-legged audience members squeeze slowly into the aisles to leave is exactly the same as the playout for the song "Ewigkeit", which ends with the actors playing vampires limping up the aisles to leave.
85** ''Theatre/TheUnsinkableMollyBrown'', following "I Ain't Down Yet" for bows, uses "I'll Never Say No" and "Belly Up To The Bar, Boys" for exit music.
86[[/folder]]
87
88[[folder:Video Games]]
89* ''VideoGame/{{Castlevania}}'': several of the Metroidvanias, beginning with ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaHarmonyOfDissonance''. ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaPortraitOfRuin'' mixes in a theme that can only be heard if you avoid the BadEnding. If you get the Bad ending in that game, you just get the Game Over screen after the cutscene.
90* Given how famous the ones in [[Franchise/StarWars the movies]] are (see above), video games from Franchise/StarWarsLegends usually do this as well.
91* ''VideoGame/NeverwinterNights''.
92* ''VideoGame/BanjoKazooieNutsAndBolts'' features an impressive score that weaves the themes of several main areas into a monster medley as the credits are viewed. The credits include the themes to Mumbo's Test-O-Track, Log BOX 720, Terrarium of Terror, Gruntilda's Challenge, Jiggoseum, Banjo Land, Nutty Acres and Gruntilda's Final Battle.
93* Very commonly used in the ''VideoGame/{{Bomberman}}'' series.
94* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
95** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyV'' uses a partial remix of [[GlobalAirship "The Dragon Spreads its Wings"]] in its end theme, followed by a slowed down version of "[[DiscOneFinalDungeon ExDeath's Castle]]" as a bridge into a march version of "[[TheOverworld Four Valiant Hearts]]" ending with a coda based on the first movement.
96** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'' deserves special mention because it manages to mix together '''every single character theme''' along with the obligatory "Prologue" music in [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic a massive 20-minute long ending sequence]].
97** ''Anime/FinalFantasyVIIAdventChildren'' and ''VideoGame/CrisisCore'' have similar medleys that both begin with a remix of The Main Theme of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'', which is the only time said piece of music is featured on the respective soundtracks. ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake'' uses a medley of "Aerith's Theme," the "Main Theme of ''Final Fantasy VII''," the "Whispers' Theme" and finishing with "Aerith's Theme" once more.
98** ''VideoGame/{{Dissidia|FinalFantasy}}'' creates a medley of the ending themes from the first ten games! The prequel does the same thing, but includes ending themes from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXI,'' ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII,'' and ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII'' as well. It is also bookended by the opening and closing bars of the song Final Fantasy at the start and end. Listen close for them.
99** The end of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX'' (pre credits) uses two of the three main themes.
100** Both ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII2'' and ''VideoGame/LightningReturnsFinalFantasyXIII'' of the so-called ''Lightning Saga'' have this. ''Final Fantasy X-2'' has a theme titled simply "Closing Credits" that is a medley of "Caius's Theme," "Paradox," "Noel's Theme," "Future/Serah's Theme" and "Yeul's Theme." ''Lightning Returns'' has "Credits ~Light Eternal~," which uses "FINAL FANTASY XIII -Miracles-," "Memories of Happier Days," "Snow's Theme ~Final Words~," "The Ark," "Caius's Theme," "Lightning's Theme" and "Blinded By Light."
101* ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'':
102** All the Platform/MegaDrive games did this, combining every stage theme into one medley with a reprise of the title theme at the very end, with the exception of ''[[VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles Sonic 3]]'' which had an original track instead of the usual medley. Both episodes of ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog4'', ''VideoGame/SonicRush'', ''VideoGame/SonicRushAdventure'', and ''VideoGame/SonicGenerations'' do the same thing.
103** The beta version of ''VideoGame/{{Sonic 3|AndKnuckles}}'' actually had its own [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oejBpoCYqE ending medley]] too, where it would play music from all stages in it and ''[[VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles Sonic and Knuckles]]'' (except for Carnival Night and Mushroom Hill Zones, for some reason), but was very likely cut from release version due to the splitting of the game into two parts. That beta is for a game called ''Sonic 3 Limited Edition'' which would've had both games on one cart. It's not a Sonic 3 beta per se.
104* Occurs frequently in the ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' games. Examples include ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker The Wind Waker]]'', ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Twilight Princess]]'', ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]'', ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask Majora's Mask]]'', and ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild Breath of the Wild]]''.
105* ''VideoGame/SuperMarioRPG'' and ''VideoGame/PaperMario'' utilize medleys of their soundtracks in their credits music. The latter's sequel games each play a unique track over their own credits instead until ''VideoGame/PaperMarioColorSplash'' returns to the medley concept.
106* ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiBowsersInsideStory'' has a whole mix of the different theme tunes as the credits music, starting from Plack Beach, to parts of Cavi Cape, to parts of the underwater theme, the Dimble Wood theme and the Toad Town theme. ''[[VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiDreamTeam Dream Team]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiPaperJam Paper Jam]]'' follow suit, using their own respective soundtracks to create credits medleys.
107* ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy''.
108* ''VideoGame/MarioKart Wii''.
109%%* ''[[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver]]'' do this in the opening.
110%%** The end credits of ''[[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue FireRed and LeafGreen]]'' as well.
111* ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'' uses the themes from each respective game in the series (64, Melee, and Brawl). This is done again for the credits sequence of the 3DS and Wii U instalments.
112* ''VideoGame/WarioLand4''
113* ''VideoGame/EarthBound1994'' and ''VideoGame/{{MOTHER 3}}'', if only for the cast roll segment; the rest of the credits have individual compositions.
114* The ending credits sequence of ''VideoGame/EquestriaBound'' features a medley of music from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' that was not used in the game proper. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYgHWRLIxVY Listen to it here.]]
115* The ''VideoGame/WarioWare'' series, starting with ''VideoGame/WarioWareTwisted''.
116* The NA version of ''VideoGame/{{Wild ARMs 1}}''.
117* ''VideoGame/CallOfDuty: World at War'' combined [[RuleOfThree three]] themes into one piece. A HeavyMetal guitar and drum kit were added on top of them, as were some techno bits accompanied by taiko drums.
118* ''VideoGame/LiveALive'' has a credits sequence that plays all of the main characters' {{leitmotif}}s one after another.
119* ''VideoGame/{{VVVVVV}}'', with the music being the background music of various areas of the gamefield.
120* ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'':
121** ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsBirthBySleep'' features a medley of the three main characters' leitmotifs (Terra, Aqua, and Ventus in order), the [[WesternAnimation/PeterPan Neverland]] battle theme, the three Franchise/{{Disney Princess}}es' worlds' battle themes, and the game's arrangement of "Dearly Beloved".
122** ''[[VideoGame/KingdomHearts3DDreamDropDistance Kingdom Hearts 3D [=[Dream Drop Distance]=] ]]'' also does this, using the battles themes for Traverse Town, [[WesternAnimation/MickeyDonaldGoofyTheThreeMusketeers Country of the Musketeers]] and [[WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}} Prankster's Paradise]], followed by the Dream Eater's theme, the battle theme for [[WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDameDisney La Cité des Cloches]] and finished with Dearly Beloved.
123** ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII'' follows suite. The first 10 minutes use the battle themes for [[Franchise/ToyStory Toy Box]], [[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 Arendelle]], [[Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean The Caribbean]], [[WesternAnimation/BigHero6 San Fransokyo]], [[WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}} Olympus]], [[WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}} Kingdom of Corona]], and [[WesternAnimation/MonstersInc Monstropolis]] in that order, then it surges into [[BookEnds Guardando nel Buio]][[labelnote:*]][[StarterVillain Ansem's]] final boss theme from [[VideoGame/KingdomHeartsI the original game]][[/labelnote]], before ending with a triumphal replise of Dearly Beloved.
124* ''VideoGame/MegaMan6'' credits has snippets of the Robot Masters' stage themes over their respective appearances in the CurtainCall.
125* ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' games frequently do this, starting as far back as the original game; more often than not, generally in conjunction with a unique composition. For example, ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemMysteryOfTheEmblem'' has "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaDbhsD7EqY Ending Medley B]]" from Book II.
126* The Platform/DSiWare game ''Art Style: Pictobits'' ends with one, incorporating bits and pieces from all of the remixes featured in the game.
127* The credits theme of ''VideoGame/{{Patapon}}'' and ''Patapon 2'' is a medley of songs introduced the games.
128* ''VideoGame/StarFoxCommand''.
129* ''VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising''
130* The voice actor credits in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid4GunsOfThePatriots'' run to a brief medley of songs from the series, which ends in [[spoiler:Big Boss's]] theme. The game then cuts to another cutscene with that character until the rest of the credits play.
131* Played with in ''VideoGame/Rockman4MinusInfinity''--the credits theme is a medley of three credits songs from the ''VideoGame/{{Kirby}}'' series - ''[[VideoGame/KirbySuperStar Super Star]]'', ''Block Ball'', and ''Dream Course'', in that order.
132* The credits of ''VideoGame/HatsuneMikuProjectDiva F'' is backed by a medley of various instrumental versions of in-game songs.
133* ''VideoGame/CrashTwinsanity'' uses one of these.
134* This is done in the second and third installments of the ''VideoGame/WingCommander'' series.
135* The ending sequence to ''VideoGame/ShovelKnight'' (before the credits roll) plays a song called "A Return to Order", which plays a medley of each of the bosses' stage themes.
136* The "ending" of ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' is backed by a medley of the title themes.
137* ''VideoGame/PN03'' does this with the Mission 3 and Final Mission themes.
138* ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' has a two-part ending piece called ''"Bring It In, Guys!"'' and ''"Last Goodbye"'' which consists of a large remixed medley of most of the game's important leitmotifs, and a reprise of the final boss music, respectively.
139* ''VideoGame/LittleBigPlanet'': From the second game onwards, as the previous ones only showed the credits if you selected them from the start menu. [=LBP2=] uses "[[Music/PassionPit Sleepyhead]]", then the funk remix of "Music/AlsoSprachZarathustra", and finally "[[Music/{{Ladytron}} Ghosts]]"; while [=LBP3=] starts with "[[Music/TheApplesInStereo Energy]]" (which, strangely, isn't obtainable in Create Mode except through a {{Good Bad Bug|s}}) and then goes through the interactive themes for Manglewood, The Ziggurat, and Bunkum Lagoon. LBP Karting also averts this, and just plays the Gardens remix the whole way through.
140* {{Inverted|Trope}} in a strange way in ''VideoGame/Persona3''. The ''FES'' rerelease features a new ''opening'' with a new song, which combines and remixes elements of several other songs in the game - most notably the credits theme.
141* A lot of the more recent ''Franchise/{{Kirby}}'' games ever since ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamLand'' often do this with their end credits music, taking recurring music pieces from throughout the game and making a medley out of it for the credits.
142* The credits of ''VideoGame/ThemsFightinHerds'' contains a medley of every character's stage theme.
143* The credits of ''VideoGame/TalesOfBerseria'' features a medley of the themes of every one of the game's playable characters - Velvet Crowe, Eizen, Eleanor Hume, Laphicet, Magilou and Rokurou Rangetsu.
144* The credits of ''VideoGame/StayTooned'' not only features the various characters' {{Leitmotif}}s, but, framed as a movie theater screening, these characters are sitting in the audience. As each character(s) theme starts playing, they engage in some dialogue or perform a sight gag, which lasts until the end of their part of the medley. The exception is Schmooze, whose theme, "The Sultan," never plays in the medley, and accordingly, he's the last one remaining in the seats.
145[[/folder]]
146
147[[folder:Western Animation]]
148* The music that plays during the credits of the first ''WesternAnimation/{{BIONICLE}}'' trilogy are all pieces of the in-movie score, though not full themes, bur rather different samples cut together in such a way, they sounds as if they were composed as standalone musical themes exclusively for the credits. Also, they're beautiful.
149* The episodes of ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' that parody musicals, such as [[Film/MaryPoppins "Supercalifragilousexpectiali(Annoyed Grunt)cious"]], [[Music/{{Evita}} "The President Wore Pearls"]], and [[Theatre/MyFairLady "My Fair Laddie"]] have instrumental medleys of the songs performed.
150* The credits music for ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales: The Ultimate Silly Song Countdown'' is a dance remix medley of all the songs featured in the countdown.
