What's your island tune based on?

Mine is the dun dun dun dun bit from Jaws to go with my island name.
 
mine’s lovely by billie eilish and khalid - there’s not really any meaning behind it besides that it’s one of my favourite songs lmaoo. i’ve been thinking of changing it again but i’m not sure what i’d change it to aha
 
Mine is Linebeck’s theme from the Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. The game takes place in an ocean filled with islands so I thought it’d make sense to implement it as my town tune. And that game is underrated I must say.
 
Mine's based on "It's a small world". You probably know the one. Don't think about it too hard or it'll be in your head all day

I don't know why I went with it but it doesn't bother me, and I have yet to think of anything better :')
 
For lack of any other songs coming to mind, as well as because I had previously requested this forum's own kiwikenobi to turn it into a town theme years ago, I decided to use the theme song of the controversial 1980s movie Cannibal Holocaust. You can check out the song here if you're curious; I figured linking to it would be better than having people, particularly the younger members, exploring and potentially seeing something they might not want to, since the link I've provided is simply an innocuous shot of the title screen. The island's tune is basically the main overarching tune of the song that starts at the 0:14 second mark in the video and continues throughout. Whatever one thinks of the movie, the song is sort of simultaneously beautiful and unsettling, which seemed fitting.

I might change it in the future if any other songs come to mind that seem like they would fit. It seems fairly nice though.
 
Currently it is K.K. Blues, since it was one of the first song I heard a villager sing (Bam <3). But previously, it was Calamari Inkantation and Funky Town.
 
"Wind Scene", the Middle Ages map music from Chrono Trigger.
