** Giorno's theme is orchestral and high-intensity. Called [[https://youtu.be/2MtOpB5LlUA "Il Vento D'oro"]][[note]]"Golden Wind"[[/note]], it is saved for his awesome moments. It even includes pieces of DIO's theme from Part 3! The piano solo from near the end has become the basis of the "epic piano/Giorno's piano/[=JoJo=] piano" meme.

** [[https://youtu.be/M8icn3XlrEM Pierrot Headroom]], a chaotic track that takes some of the lyrics of "WELCOME TO THE WORLD" and sprinkles it all over the place, particularly at the halfway point. Too bad it's used for only one episode.

** [[https://youtu.be/mcLjmxout-A II mare eterno nella mia anima]], an absolutely heart-wrenching opera piece more than fitting for what is probably Battle Tendency's biggest TearJerker moment. CAEEEEESAAAAAAAAARRR!

%%** [[https://youtu.be/xyxOXjZHl9U Propaganda]], BECAUSE THIS GERMAN THEME SONG IS THE GREATEST IN THE WORLD!



* The OP for Stardust Crusaders, [[https://youtu.be/oAzNQKbncxA STAND PROUD]], is just as excellent as the other two openings, while being SEVERAL TIMES AS MANLY. It's a badass, fast-paced, and uplifting song that encourages the protagonists to keep going and triumph over the ultimate evil if they "STAND PROOOOOUUUUUUD!"
* And the new ED theme? None other than [[https://youtu.be/tMnGmoLS6zo "Walk Like An Egyptian"]] by Music/TheBangles.
* Jotaro Kujo's main theme, aka [[https://youtu.be/pjzkEM2GWc4 Stardust Crusaders]]. For the first two episodes, it's only heard at the end of the episode, whether during the "next episode" trailer or the credits before "Walk Like An Egyptian" took its place. However, after that, it effectively becomes Jotaro/Star Platinum's theme tune. The moment the two-metre tall high-schooler lets out a "Yare-yare..." and the guitar riff of this song cuts in, someone's days just got well and truly numbered. It helps that it sounds like a guitar-heavy remix of the OVA's opening theme, serving as a musical link between the two. And, when Part 4 (Diamond Is Unbreakable) rolls around - eleven in-universe years later - the now twenty-eight year old Jotaro ''still'' gets his beatdowns and general awesome moments accompanied by this song! Perhaps the best appearance of this track is during the final confrontation between DIO and Jotaro on the bridge. DIO, having had his legs broken by Jotaro, tries to kick Jotaro using THE WORLD, and Jotaro counters by having Star Platinum punch THE WORLD in the knee. Star Platinum's fist cracks, and there is a moment of silence as DIO laughs, expecting Star Platinum to be destroyed and Jotaro, subsequently, to die. [[OhCrap Then THE WORLD's leg cracks]], and "Stardust Crusaders" has a TriumphantReprise as THE WORLD shatters to bits and [[BreakTheHaughty the vampire screams]] "[[ThisCannotBe WHAT THE HELL?!]]". This is easily one of Yugo Kanno's best works, given he was able to compose this masterpiece alongside the rest of Part 3's OST, and beyond.

* [[https://youtu.be/Tgbloc65cio Shoot Towards the Decisive Battle]], a tense theme that plays during and leading up to Avdol's death at the hands of Vanilla Ice, and when DIO is approaching Joseph and Kakyoin's crashed car.
* [[https://youtu.be/N96g6ehwscY Time of the Decisive Battle]] plays during some of the most intense confrontations in the season - such as when Jotaro uses Star Platinum to block DIO's attempt to decapitate him at the last second, and launches his Stand at the master vampire...all the while, the latter can only stare in shock as after being in control for most of the fight, he's FINALLY about to take the full wrath of Star Platinum head on.
* [[https://youtu.be/kTazVw4IN6g Requiem]] is a massive TearJerker of a piece with a slow paced, heavenly choir and organ that plays when Polnareff watches Avdol and Iggy's souls ascend to heaven after Vanilla Ice is defeated.
* [[https://youtu.be/7qJrFqzrgU4 Awakening Darkness of The World]] plays several times during the final episodes, notably during the first time we see the true power of ZA WARUDO in all its glory, featuring an epic reprise of DIO's theme from [[https://youtu.be/MmxNZH3zrK8 Revival of Darkness]]. What's more, there's a part in the song where the beginning of Jotaro's theme can be heard for a split second - a [[MusicalSpoiler clever hint]] that Jotaro's stand powers mimic Dio's. And then it appears again in the final episode of Part 4 when Kira is finally defeated as the entire Duwang Gang faces him, Koichi stops him from using Bites the Dust, Jotaro freezes time, and Reimi and Arnold finally get their revenge. Again, a dead dog manages to use the battle theme of an immortal vampire Stand user and be that badass.
* [[https://youtu.be/iMIsgta0TRU Demon's Awakening]] sometimes plays when a new stand is introduced. The strings give off a sense of power and regality, while the jazz guitar and bass can only be described as ''"sexy."'' Intense yet paradoxically also very chill, full of swagger, and featuring instruments commonly associated with the desert, the song almost sounds like the auditory equivalent of Part 3's own storyline.

* The first episode ends, and instead of the usual J-pop, we get "Roundabout" by Music/{{Yes}}. (TV version [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKr46XveL6w here]]; complete song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gk-iWj_a-68 here.]]) Awesome. So awesome, in fact, that it in and of itself became [[MemeticMutation a meme]]. The best part is in episode 14, where the middle of the song is used instead. So, when the credits arrive and you hear the iconic lyrics beginning with ''"I'll be the roundabout..."'', you'll definitely start singing along.
* The second episode starts, and for the opening we get [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYdrzdjgiUo Sono Chi no Sadame!]] (JOOOOOOOOOOOOJO~), the kind of [[RatedMForManly Ultra-Manly]] song we seldom see today outside of tributes to the Eighties. Even better: after being replaced by "Bloody Stream" for Battle Tendency, this song returns for the final battle between Joseph and Kars, as Joseph, driven by instinct, uses the Red Stone of Aja to trigger a volcanic eruption and launch himself and Kars up into the sky; sending the latter into orbit.
%%* The anime version of ''Phantom Blood'' is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLk_utDcoFM no]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuEe-5QAlsI slouch]] in the music department, with a score that combines both orchestral music and a little bit of rock.
* Just hearing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrw3NYx2YQ0 "Destiny",]] AKA Johnathan's theme, tells you all you need to know. How you should [[BewareTheNiceOnes beware the wrath of a good man]] like Johnathan, who is about to beat you and look cool doing so.

* The OP for Stardust Crusaders, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAzNQKbncxA STAND PROUD]], is just as excellent as the other two openings, while being SEVERAL TIMES AS MANLY. It's a badass, fast-paced, and uplifting song that encourages the protagonists to keep going and triumph over the ultimate evil if they "STAND PROOOOOUUUUUUD!"
* And the new ED theme? None other than [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMnGmoLS6zo "Walk Like An Egyptian"]] by Music/TheBangles.
* Jotaro Kujo's main theme, aka [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjzkEM2GWc4 Stardust Crusaders]]. For the first two episodes, it's only heard at the end of the episode, whether during the "next episode" trailer or the credits before "Walk Like An Egyptian" took its place. However, after that, it effectively becomes Jotaro/Star Platinum's theme tune. The moment the two-metre tall high-schooler lets out a "Yare-yare..." and the guitar riff of this song cuts in, someone's days just got well and truly numbered. It helps that it sounds like a guitar-heavy remix of the OVA's opening theme, serving as a musical link between the two. And, when Part 4 (Diamond Is Unbreakable) rolls around - eleven in-universe years later - the now twenty-eight year old Jotaro ''still'' gets his beatdowns and general awesome moments accompanied by this song! Perhaps the best appearance of this track is during the final confrontation between DIO and Jotaro on the bridge. DIO, having had his legs broken by Jotaro, tries to kick Jotaro using THE WORLD, and Jotaro counters by having Star Platinum punch THE WORLD in the knee. Star Platinum's fist cracks, and there is a moment of silence as DIO laughs, expecting Star Platinum to be destroyed and Jotaro, subsequently, to die. [[OhCrap Then THE WORLD's leg cracks]], and "Stardust Crusaders" has a TriumphantReprise as THE WORLD shatters to bits and [[BreakTheHaughty the vampire screams]] "[[ThisCannotBe WHAT THE HELL?!]]". This is easily one of Yugo Kanno's best works, given he was able to compose this masterpiece alongside the rest of Part 3's OST, and beyond.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PM42uKqzfI "Virtuous Pope"]], an uplifting, heroic tune which plays for Kakyoin's and Polnareff's times in the spotlight. When this plays, you just know that the tables are gonna be turned on the bad guys.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlgRXAGonLg Setting Off]]. While it may feel a bit out of place for [=JoJo=], it's nonetheless beautiful and calming.
* Hol Horse's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1vqWVXnHJs "Wind in the Wilderness"]], [[ARareSentence an awesome combination of spaghetti western, Indian music and techno.]]
* And, from the second half of Stardust Crusaders, we have "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xF5GfqJrhE Sono Chi no Kioku ~end of THE WORLD~]]", which features the bands behind all three of the previous openings. Awesome CG visuals, a rocking song and an ending of a triple ORAORAORA may make this the manliest opening in anime history. And that's [[SerialEscalation the tip of the]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouqfjvAMg7Y iceberg]].
* Also from the second half, Pat Metheny's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9vQ_y9JJ1E Last Train Home]]" is a perfect way to come down gently through the AwesomenessWithdrawal.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vh_ZK_Rb25s The Oingo Boingo Brothers ED]] that appeared in the titular duo's debut episode. Not only does it replicate the hilariously terrible and creepy art style of Boingo's manga stand really well animated, but it's incredibly catchy as well. Both voice actors turn out to be great singers, especially Oingo. Notable also for being quite popular on the Japanese iTunes after it first aired, being number 20 at one point.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhIDrA26laA Happens again in the ED for the Hol Horse and Boingo team-up]], with the same replication of the episode in StylisticSuck and rivaling the original version in catchiness: especially at Hol Horse's parts, where he sings surprisingly well and [[MickeyMousing fires Emperor in sync with the music]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTnuowntqho Fool of Sand]], just in case you forgot that Iggy is the coolest Boston terrier in the world.
%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2fmArRXjp8 Platinum Fists]], for whenever Jotaro and the gang are doing something epic.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5Vm86dD3n0 Space of a Lone God]], Telence T. D'Arby's theme, highlights just how creepy this man and his... ''"collection"'' is.
%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlW3-mBq6e8 Sprint]], the theme of F-Mega.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tgbloc65cio Shoot Towards the Decisive Battle]], a tense theme that plays during and leading up to Avdol's death at the hands of Vanilla Ice, and when DIO is approaching Joseph and Kakyoin's crashed car.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N96g6ehwscY Time of the Decisive Battle]] plays during some of the most intense confrontations in the season - such as when Jotaro uses Star Platinum to block DIO's attempt to decapitate him at the last second, and launches his Stand at the master vampire...all the while, the latter can only stare in shock as after being in control for most of the fight, he's FINALLY about to take the full wrath of Star Platinum head on.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTazVw4IN6g Requiem]] is a massive TearJerker of a piece with a slow paced, heavenly choir and organ that plays when Polnareff watches Avdol and Iggy's souls ascend to heaven after Vanilla Ice is defeated.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qJrFqzrgU4 Awakening Darkness of The World]] plays several times during the final episodes, notably during the first time we see the true power of ZA WARUDO in all its glory, featuring an epic reprise of DIO's theme from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmxNZH3zrK8 Revival of Darkness]]. What's more, there's a part in the song where the beginning of Jotaro's theme can be heard for a split second - a [[MusicalSpoiler clever hint]] that Jotaro's stand powers mimic Dio's. And then it appears again in the final episode of Part 4 when Kira is finally defeated as the entire Duwang Gang faces him, Koichi stops him from using Bites the Dust, Jotaro freezes time, and Reimi and Arnold finally get their revenge. Again, a dead dog manages to use the battle theme of an immortal vampire Stand user and be that badass.

* The first OP for "Diamond is Unbreakable", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r4W0_JVLP8 "Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town"]], tones down the hotblooded tone the previous [=OP=]s were famous for, but more than makes up for it by sheer catchiness and a more funky tone. Now with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIVL9CD-O00 EDM version.]]
%%* And the ED for the part? How about [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EOWfvX2czw "I Want You"]] by Music/SavageGarden?
%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmIXwgNcIxM Josuke's leitmotif,]] which is played in promotional advertisements and episode previews for Part 4 episodes, is pretty damn cool.
* The second OP for "Diamond is Unbreakable", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYNK0YRqZb4 "Chase"]], eschews the funkyness of the previous OP in favor of a "90s Rock" feel, perfectly encapsulating the extreme shift in tone that "Diamond is Unbreakable" undergoes during its second half. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDRKubdmIk8 The acoustic version]] gives a more low-key, [[Music/TheBeatles Beatles-esque]] tone to the song, which gives off a more calm and sad atmosphere than the song heard in the OP.
* Adding to the list of fantastic [=OPs=] is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBiVN5T7dv8 "Great Days"]], with a more uplifting, hopeful tone after the intensity of "Chase". This was only followed up in the final episode with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqDxUPrNgZw Units Version]], which involves every single OP singer returning to lend their voices as JO☆UNITED to the final song of the season.

* The first OP for "Diamond is Unbreakable", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r4W0_JVLP8 [[https://youtu.be/5r4W0_JVLP8 "Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town"]], tones down the hotblooded tone the previous [=OP=]s were famous for, but more than makes up for it by sheer catchiness and a more funky tone. Now with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIVL9CD-O00 [[https://youtu.be/IIVL9CD-O00 EDM version.]]
%%* And the ED for the part? How about [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EOWfvX2czw [[https://youtu.be/_EOWfvX2czw "I Want You"]] by Music/SavageGarden?
%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmIXwgNcIxM [[https://youtu.be/pmIXwgNcIxM Josuke's leitmotif,]] which is played in promotional advertisements and episode previews for Part 4 episodes, is pretty damn cool.
* The second OP for "Diamond is Unbreakable", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYNK0YRqZb4 [[https://youtu.be/HYNK0YRqZb4 "Chase"]], eschews the funkyness of the previous OP in favor of a "90s Rock" feel, perfectly encapsulating the extreme shift in tone that "Diamond is Unbreakable" undergoes during its second half. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDRKubdmIk8 [[https://youtu.be/ZDRKubdmIk8 The acoustic version]] gives a more low-key, [[Music/TheBeatles Beatles-esque]] tone to the song, which gives off a more calm and sad atmosphere than the song heard in the OP.
* Adding to the list of fantastic [=OPs=] is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBiVN5T7dv8 [[https://youtu.be/oBiVN5T7dv8 "Great Days"]], with a more uplifting, hopeful tone after the intensity of "Chase". This was only followed up in the final episode with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqDxUPrNgZw [[https://youtu.be/QqDxUPrNgZw Units Version]], which involves every single OP singer returning to lend their voices as JO☆UNITED to the final song of the season.



* Yoshikage Kira's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QPEVQp1MZw leitmotif]], which is played whenever he appears on-screen, is an interesting piece that manages to both be whimsical and mysterious, while still managing to be dramatic and creepy at the exact right moments when the episodes call for it. It is the perfect tune for building up to the moments that really cement him as the main villain of the part. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mewbPAtkbAw remixed version]] of said leitmotif that plays when he is impersonating Kosaku Kawajiri is a noticably darker and more menacing version of the theme to play up the fact that he is not the normal man that he appears to be on the surface, and rather something way more horrifying. Bonus points for the track's opening chords resembling Music/HarryNilsson's "One", which is entirely relevant to Kira's desire for a life of solitude.
* Koichi's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rpc8K-zQoYM Courage,]] starts off reserved, gaining more and more instrumentation as it goes on until it's a bombastic orchestral piece to rival Josuke's theme. Perfectly encompasses Koichi's character arc.

* The first OP we get for ''Golden Wind'', [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGfAyOFUdEY "Fighting Gold"]], does not disappoint by giving us a more fast-paced intro piece sung by Coda that's only rivaled by "Sono Chi no Kioku" in sheer intensity.
* The second OP, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqBNnC_apV4 Traitor's Requiem]], is a more dramatic piece that shows the heroes' unwavering courage in the face of the seemingly unstoppable King Crimson represented through a determined track following an oppressive opening. Oh, and there's an official [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ix9KQtcIzQA English version.]] The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psQt50Uwc6Y King Crimson version]] of the opening is ''even more awesome'' with King Crimson opening up a segment of erased time where Diavolo gives a BreakingSpeech in, admittedly janky, Italian about how YouCantFightFate ''right'' before the final verse, transforming it from merely a determined statement to an ''outright ShutUpHannibal'' to Diavolo's fatalist mindset. The addition of a choir backing the final verse helps. Finally, the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMhJau3YY40 Requiem version]] of the opening has Giorno [[LikeFatherLikeSon doing a menacing pose]] right before he stabs the Stand-creating arrow into Gold Experience, with the defiant "Hell no!" line directly in time with the full appearance of Gold Experience Requiem.
* The first ending theme this time around is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYwL-FzFDKQ "Freek'n You"]] by Music/{{Jodeci}}, a relaxing and [[IntercourseWithYou downright seductive]] R&B tune. Which might be strangely fitting considering the amount of [[HoYay/JoJosBizarreAdventure Ho Yay]] in this series.

** Giorno's theme is orchestral and high-intensity. Called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MtOpB5LlUA "Il vento d'oro"]][[note]]"Golden Wind"[[/note]], it is saved for his awesome moments. It even includes pieces of DIO's theme from Part 3! The piano solo from near the end has become the basis of the "epic piano/Giorno's piano/[=JoJo=] piano" meme.
** Bruno's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQmKt8iU08Y "Nella Cerneria",]][[note]]"In the Zipper"[[/note]] is an energetic tune which pumps up some of the most intense moments, combined with clean unzip sounds of Sticky Fingers.

** Narancia's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wcsk0ZXlDQ8 "Aero de caccia",]][[note]]"Fighter Jet"[[/note]] has a sense of urgency accompanied with manic violins which ramp up in tempo the further the track progresses which fits Aerosmith's destructive capability and speed.
** Abbachio's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49Q9HIhHaGs "Riproduzione".]][[note]]"Replication"[[/note]] The music, as expected from Abbachio's rewind powers, sounds like it's being played in reverse, but you can also hear snippets of the others' themes in it as well. Tone wise, it shows why Abbacchio's Stand is called "Moody Blues".
** Fugo's theme, aptly named [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Mr_EW3WMi4 "Virus"]], is a terrifying piece which hits the point that you do ''not'' want to encounter Purple Haze one-on-one. It sounds a lot like a theme song for a slasher movie villain combined with Atum sound effects from ''Stardust Crusaders,'' and opens with a real-life biohazard alarm.
* The {{memetic|Mutation}} [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQx_KMoCgJU "torture dance"]], accompanied by an ''awesome'' song, matching the visuals perfectly like a mini music video. When the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UIn2xq-tOE full version]] (fittingly titled "Canzoni Preferite"[[note]]"Favorite Songs"[[/note]]) was released, fans were not disappointed.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shHdQoBzh3s "La Strada Guista"]], a melancholy requiem played in honor of Narancia on his death.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Biq6S4weZ9Q "Magnetica",]] the theme of Risotto Nero. Absolutely ominous and absolutely metal, it establishes that the leader of La Squadra should NOT be fucked with.
* Diavolo's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsKLvtTOeYo "Un'altra Persona",]] might be one of the most ominous pieces of music ever written. A terrifying, droning dirge of alternating rising and falling notes performed by a men's choir with the accompaniment of a pipe organ, it immediately gets across the menace of King Crimson and how absolutely ''fucked'' its victims are.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tPw04p2Ll8 "Permanenza"]], as played during the infinite deaths of Diavolo. Not as ominous as Diavolo's theme, but the piano, strings, and reversed guitar riffs can guarantee to [[NightmareFuel send chills down your spine]].

It can be considered Gold Experience's theme, and it's basically the musical equivalent of Giorno telling the enemy that they're fucked.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Os0xhaBMjuI "Un Sogno"]] ("A Dream") is an inspiring and uplifting brass and strings piece representing Giorno's ambitions. Its reprise, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSdwJ6MYeuo "Determinazione"]], is a heart-wrenching piece that plays when Bruno's spirit wishes Giorno luck before departing.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGgCtdibfBM [[https://youtu.be/dGgCtdibfBM Gold Experience's theme]] is an orchestral theme showcasing that hell will break loose.



* The game has an expectedly awesome [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILmX5MfGuxg opening.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxOuKkLcRqI Jonathan's theme: Luck & Pluck.]] You wouldn't think a light rock theme would suit retro hero Jonathan but it manages to just by reinforcing the heroic qualities in a guitar-style fashion instead.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=feBSsf3MHzE Will A. Zeppeli's theme: Zeppeli the Eccentric.]] Mix some Music/LedZeppelin (those cues to "Rock & Roll" and "Kashmir"!) with some more... "eccentric" pieces and you have a hell of a crazy awesome theme.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opC2Uig9RY0 Dio Brando's theme: Weakling, Weakling.]] The innate creepiness of this theme works wonders for a mad vampire with designs on total domination, while the constant whirring and industrial noise backing the track, though it may seem odd for the timeline, manages to perfectly fit a man who has willingly abandoned his humanity.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIyJjoAFbxY Joseph's theme: New York JoJo.]] What better theme to give to him than a jaunty, goony guitar theme while still staying tough enough to take you by surprise if you make even one mistake against him.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BX5NznUBsXw Caesar's theme: Lonely Youth.]] A badass theme that fits the playboy Caesar Zeppeli, given his tragic past.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JhRCWUtUV4 Lisa Lisa's theme: LISA LISA.]] A nice techno piece that wouldn't sound out of place in a fashion showcase. Fitting for such a fine woman.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtlDvR56rOs Wamuu's theme: A True Warrior]], a wild and reckless-sounding theme, with an honorable, warrior-like vibe to it.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NB2P-dzu28 Polnareff's theme: Aggression and Victory]] is an awesomely fast-paced piece that consists of an epic guitar solo that gets listeners pumped for the next fight, and perfectly captures the nature of Polnareff's Stand, [[SuperSpeed Silver]] [[KnightInShiningArmor Chariot]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E01TCUSNj-U Avdol's theme: HELL 2 U!]] A mystical-sounding rock tune with heavy use of Middle Eastern sounds to compliment Avdol's abilities as a fortune teller.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpJWQlw9Xec Old Joseph Joestar's theme: Lovable Guy]]. A catchy theme with jaunty guitars that wouldn't be out of place in a cowboy Western, showing that while Joseph's gotten older, he still hasn't lost his touch from the days of his youth.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucCi1j1rp6M Iggy's theme: The Phantasmagorical Fool of Sand.]] A rock tune with that mixes together Iggy's carefree confidence with a heroic, do-or-die vibe. Perfect for a CanineCompanion with attitude who's more than capable of getting serious when it counts.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_Frwi9mE5o Hol Horse's theme: MEGYAN.]] A great piece of music perfectly fitting his goofy and easy-going appearance late in the series in contrast to his more serious theme in the Capcom game.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNDT3kM-YKc Pet Shop's theme: Gatekeeper of Hell]] starts off cheery-sounding before transitioning into a harsh techno beat that reminds you this is a bird who won't stop hunting you until you're dead.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCjCaaZjluM Vanilla Ice's theme: Spirit of Emptiness]], with its awesomely face-melting guitar work, and truly ominous breakdown.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9bel8mbJI8 Okuyasu's theme: Surpass My Aniki]] is seemingly unremarkable, echoing how Okuyasu sees himself as dumb, yet the guitar solo gradually rises in tone, revealing his own [[HiddenDepths hidden potential]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vs7rZzHazC8 Koichi's theme: Does That Mean I Got Stronger Again?]] mixes the gentle piano and violin that represent his meekness, with the aggressive electric guitar/bass and techno elements that represent [[TookALevelInBadass his newfound ability to fight back]]. The result is a triumphant melody that tells the story of his CharacterDevelopment and greatest achievements.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auYMuchUa_Y Rohan's theme: Pink Dark Boy.]] A fast-paced rock theme that gets to some monumentally epic guitar work at around 37 seconds in, then takes a sudden darker turn at the [[Mystical108 1:08]] mark, symbolizing his hidden unhinged side.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VZR6pyVWes Shigekiyo Yangu's theme: Harvest]]. An eccentric, awesomely quirky theme that underlies the good heart buried beneath Shigechi's greed.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yA_847kvmY Akira Otoishi's theme: Ultra Super Guitarist]] is a fun yet epic guitar work that is also a ShoutOut to one of Music/RedHotChiliPeppers's songs, "Can't Stop".
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyVUX1tkY0M Kira's theme: Yoshikage Kira Wants A Quiet Life.]] It's almost unremarkable, and yet given that Kira's trying ''not'' to get noticed, it fits.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0qI62olmuQ Giorno's theme: Gold Experience]] fits the son of [[MagnificentBastard DIO]] yet is full of sweet guitar work.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsyBg6AKIrc Bucciarati's theme: Arrivederci!]] is a relaxed theme with a killer saxophone part that serves as a wonderful homage to "Brown Sugar" from [[Music/StickyFingers the album]] his stand is named after.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWVgmSV1sb4 Narancia's theme: Volare Via!]] A heavy rock theme that evokes the image of an aerial dogfight, which is fitting for someone as foul-mouthed and reckless as Narancia.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcIxUtgm9S8 Prosciutto and Pesci's theme: The Grateful Dead.]] An impressive combination of intense electric guitar riffs reminiscent of Wamuu's ''Eyes of Heaven'' theme for Prosciutto, laid-back lap steel guitar for Pesci, and a little bit of ominous and intense techno to go with it, making for a theme that really captures the spirit of a hardened assassin and his close friend and protege.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPqShBm48-M Risotto's theme: I have my own way.]] Fast-paced, head-banging metal, more than perfect for a stand like Metallica. The song manages to blend intensity with a calm collectedness to really show off the personality of La Squadra's leader.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHXKRNAFE48 Diavolo's theme: His Name is Diavolo.]] The foreboding opening and descending piano notes perfectly encapsulate his broken mind, and they even use phone call sound effects to represent Doppio; all in all, the piece makes for a Music/KingCrimson-esque melody that, like his Stand, just works.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2kHB23ik80 Jolyne's Theme: I Want to See the Starlight.]] Fittingly Hendrix-style guitar work that manages a perfect mix of both laid-back and kick-ass for Jolyne.

* The demo's preview of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ew-N_FH1-Zg the game's soundtrack]] is the first sign of this game's music being a smash hit.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBr65T8PKso Jonathan's theme]]. A fearless-sounding rock number that also gets rearranged for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hnk-J59jyXc Esidisi's equally epic theme]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzmmBXDpk88 Zeppeli's theme]]. Really fast-paced and intense for a Hamon master.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRP_wcYpxYQ Even Speedwagon gets a cool theme]]! Catchy and thug-like for a guy who's ready to [[{{Determinator}} take on Stand Users, Vampires, and Pillar Men alike]]. It also comes with a slick bass solo.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4d5mpIyJn14 Caesar's theme]] oozes equal airs of elegance and melancholy.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUWG9Q6IQMI Lisa Lisa's theme]]. A really catchy pop track fitting for a fashion show.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHerZWcAaZQ Stroheim's theme]]. Part [[FourStarBadass Nazi military march]], part [[{{Cyborg}} mechanical noises]], part [[LargeHam energetic fun]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gMlFFXFJQc Wamuu's theme]]. Intense and imposing, just like the Pillar Man himself.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2M_4ahMBXKc Avdol's theme]]. An exotic Egyptian tune that is completely [[{{Pun}} fire]] and fitting to Avdol.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQtBoHIoEGo Kakyoin's theme]] mixes the traditional Japanese from his ASB track and the elegant badass nature from his HFTF track into one.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSmloroOy9k Polnareff's theme]] is a fast-paced, heroic-sounding number that continues the trend of him having epic themes no matter what game he's in.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6YmNyROlNQ Hol Horse's theme]]. Although not nearly as intense as either of his previous themes in the ''[=JoJo=]'' fighting games, it's still a very fun and easy-going (not to mention ''seriously'' catchy) banjo and surf guitar-backed piece with a humorous edge to it that wouldn't sound out-of-place in a chase scene for a cartoon.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhSweU3CXi8 Pet Shop's theme]]. A catchy, threatening rock tune for a no-nonsense bird of prey.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jp5y5a4Qcto DIO's theme]]. A really slow intimidating track that starts off with an organ solo.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUL0269awIk Koichi's theme]]. You just know that whoever messed with him and his friends is getting their ass kicked.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTmJ1ztMa68 Mariah's theme]] is a slow metal theme, which is perfectly fitting for a stand user associated with metals.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEGU0LOTTX4#t=14 Yukako's theme]] starts out with a serene, traditional Japanese melody, but much like Yukako herself, it progressively gets more intense by combining rock and dubstep... then gets creepy as a choir of women vocalize in the background, showing off Yukako's more unhinged side.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2K1E6wx_Sc Yoshikage Kira's theme]] [[FridgeBrilliance actually sounds like "Killer Queen" a bit.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gl6CAsKJ0Y Akira's theme]] is an awesome rock piece that is heavily influenced this time by Music/{{Aerosmith}}, especially their song "Walk This Way".
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyxO8nnh3sU Shigechi's theme]] is surprisingly intense and ominous for a greedy middle-schooler, yet perfectly fits the user of a stand with as much power and potential as Harvest has.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUMo4cPImUw Giorno's theme]], contrasting with his more extravagant ASB theme, is a chill piano number befitting the theme and overall tone of his part.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgqbEE2G0T0 Fugo's theme]], a remix of his ASB theme and [[Music/JimiHendrix gives heavy allusion to his stand's namesake]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qfr5dQX5Ig Trish's theme]] features an awesome blend of rock and techno.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sj-S3NHymM Diavolo's theme.]] It works. It just works.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzBwBwUYqqg Jolyne's theme]], which, like Fugo's, also most fittingly sounds like a Music/JimiHendrix song.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZPuD3mFtag Ermes' theme]]. The rock is strong with this one.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8p0FRbr7i1M Weather Report's theme]] sounds like a real Music/WeatherReport [[FridgeBrilliance song.]]
* Pucci has two themes, both equally epic. There's the Whitesnake version's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Gf5cPQRtCE slow, thunderous theme]] that takes some inspiration from Music/{{Whitesnake}}'s "Still of the Night" and "Saints and Sinners", while the C-Moon/Made in Heaven version has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ch5o7_Ob_Rg a faster, more frantic theme]] befitting someone with a time-accelerating Stand, and even has a part that sounds a bit like the intro of "[[Music/{{Queen}} Made in Heaven]]".

to:

* The demo's preview of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ew-N_FH1-Zg [[https://youtu.be/Ew-N_FH1-Zg the game's soundtrack]] is the first sign of this game's music being a smash hit.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBr65T8PKso [[https://youtu.be/dBr65T8PKso Jonathan's theme]]. A fearless-sounding rock number that also gets rearranged for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hnk-J59jyXc [[https://youtu.be/Hnk-J59jyXc Esidisi's equally epic theme]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzmmBXDpk88 [[https://youtu.be/rzmmBXDpk88 Zeppeli's theme]]. Really fast-paced and intense for a Hamon master.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRP_wcYpxYQ [[https://youtu.be/FRP_wcYpxYQ Even Speedwagon gets a cool theme]]! Catchy and thug-like for a guy who's ready to [[{{Determinator}} take on Stand Users, Vampires, and Pillar Men alike]]. It also comes with a slick bass solo.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4d5mpIyJn14 [[https://youtu.be/4d5mpIyJn14 Caesar's theme]] oozes equal airs of elegance and melancholy.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUWG9Q6IQMI [[https://youtu.be/xUWG9Q6IQMI Lisa Lisa's theme]]. A really catchy pop track fitting for a fashion show.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHerZWcAaZQ [[https://youtu.be/rHerZWcAaZQ Stroheim's theme]]. Part [[FourStarBadass Nazi military march]], part [[{{Cyborg}} mechanical noises]], part [[LargeHam energetic fun]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gMlFFXFJQc [[https://youtu.be/3gMlFFXFJQc Wamuu's theme]]. Intense and imposing, just like the Pillar Man himself.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2M_4ahMBXKc [[https://youtu.be/2M_4ahMBXKc Avdol's theme]]. An exotic Egyptian tune that is completely [[{{Pun}} fire]] and fitting to Avdol.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQtBoHIoEGo [[https://youtu.be/gQtBoHIoEGo Kakyoin's theme]] mixes the traditional Japanese from his ASB track and the elegant badass nature from his HFTF track into one.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSmloroOy9k [[https://youtu.be/bSmloroOy9k Polnareff's theme]] is a fast-paced, heroic-sounding number that continues the trend of him having epic themes no matter what game he's in.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6YmNyROlNQ [[https://youtu.be/T6YmNyROlNQ Hol Horse's theme]]. Although not nearly as intense as either of his previous themes in the ''[=JoJo=]'' fighting games, it's still a very fun and easy-going (not to mention ''seriously'' catchy) banjo and surf guitar-backed piece with a humorous edge to it that wouldn't sound out-of-place in a chase scene for a cartoon.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhSweU3CXi8 [[https://youtu.be/PhSweU3CXi8 Pet Shop's theme]]. A catchy, threatening rock tune for a no-nonsense bird of prey.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jp5y5a4Qcto [[https://youtu.be/jp5y5a4Qcto DIO's theme]]. A really slow intimidating track that starts off with an organ solo.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUL0269awIk [[https://youtu.be/SUL0269awIk Koichi's theme]]. You just know that whoever messed with him and his friends is getting their ass kicked.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTmJ1ztMa68 [[https://youtu.be/hTmJ1ztMa68 Mariah's theme]] is a slow metal theme, which is perfectly fitting for a stand user associated with metals.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEGU0LOTTX4#t=14 [[https://youtu.be/HEGU0LOTTX4#t=14 Yukako's theme]] starts out with a serene, traditional Japanese melody, but much like Yukako herself, it progressively gets more intense by combining rock and dubstep... then gets creepy as a choir of women vocalize in the background, showing off Yukako's more unhinged side.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2K1E6wx_Sc [[https://youtu.be/U2K1E6wx_Sc Yoshikage Kira's theme]] [[FridgeBrilliance actually sounds like "Killer Queen" a bit.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gl6CAsKJ0Y [[https://youtu.be/-gl6CAsKJ0Y Akira's theme]] is an awesome rock piece that is heavily influenced this time by Music/{{Aerosmith}}, especially their song "Walk This Way".
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyxO8nnh3sU [[https://youtu.be/ZyxO8nnh3sU Shigechi's theme]] is surprisingly intense and ominous for a greedy middle-schooler, yet perfectly fits the user of a stand with as much power and potential as Harvest has.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUMo4cPImUw [[https://youtu.be/qUMo4cPImUw Giorno's theme]], contrasting with his more extravagant ASB theme, is a chill piano number befitting the theme and overall tone of his part.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgqbEE2G0T0 [[https://youtu.be/TgqbEE2G0T0 Fugo's theme]], a remix of his ASB theme and [[Music/JimiHendrix gives heavy allusion to his stand's namesake]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qfr5dQX5Ig [[https://youtu.be/_qfr5dQX5Ig Trish's theme]] features an awesome blend of rock and techno.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sj-S3NHymM [[https://youtu.be/_sj-S3NHymM Diavolo's theme.]] It works. It just works.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzBwBwUYqqg [[https://youtu.be/NzBwBwUYqqg Jolyne's theme]], which, like Fugo's, also most fittingly sounds like a Music/JimiHendrix song.

* There's also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjzkEM2GWc4 Stardust Crusaders]]. For the first two episodes, it's only heard at the end of the episode, whether during the "next episode" trailer or the credits before "Walk Like An Egyptian" took its place. However, after that, it effectively becomes Jotaro/Star Platinum's theme tune. The moment the two-metre tall high-schooler lets out a "Yare-yare..." and the guitar riff of this song cuts in, someone's days just got well and truly numbered. It helps that it sounds like a guitar-heavy remix of the OVA's opening theme, serving as a musical link between the two. And, when Part 4 (Diamond Is Unbreakable) rolls around - eleven in-universe years later - the now twenty-eight year old Jotaro ''still'' gets his beatdowns and general awesome moments accompanied by this song! Perhaps the best appearance of this track is during the final confrontation between DIO and Jotaro on the bridge. DIO, having had his legs broken by Jotaro, tries to kick Jotaro using THE WORLD, and Jotaro counters by having Star Platinum punch THE WORLD in the knee. Star Platinum's fist cracks, and there is a moment of silence as DIO laughs, expecting Star Platinum to be destroyed and Jotaro, subsequently, to die. [[OhCrap Then THE WORLD's leg cracks]], and "Stardust Crusaders" has a TriumphantReprise as THE WORLD shatters to bits and [[BreakTheHaughty the vampire screams]] "[[ThisCannotBe WHAT THE HELL?!]]".

* While the second batch of episodes didn't change the opening theme, the third and final batch changes this in the most dramatic way with the appropriately titled "[[https://youtu.be/oF8AI2wLBBQ Heaven's falling down]]", performed by sana and her band sajou no hana. And much like how "STONE OCEAN" takes cues from "STAND PROUD", this song takes cues from "Sono Chi no Kioku ~end of THE WORLD~", namely the added dread and desperation of the final act; the chorus especially feels heavy.

In a musical take on the good ol' LikeFatherLikeSon trope, this theme borrows cues from "STAND PROUD" (and has both the same composer and lyricist for this theme), especially noticeable with the gut punchy final note of said theme. But instead of having a hard metal-like vibe, it instead takes the punk rock route to reflect upon Jolyne Cujoh's character, and easily captures the grungy, chaotic feeling that Part 6 has to offer.
