Soundtracks are one of the most memorable things about a work. Often, a work will have one (or many) tunes that, when you hear them, just immediately make you remember the work in question. And then there are those tracks that you associate so much with the work that the absence of it feels like Early-Installment Weirdness. This could be related to many things. For instance, a particular theme could be associated with an Iconic Sequel Character (such as the theme of Rohan from the The Lord of the Rings trilogy), it could result from a particular composer just penning something magnificent that so happened to come later in the series, or it could be because one particular track just struck a chord with audiences. Whatever the case, if you hear a song from a score and it makes you instantly think of the series as a whole, and it doesn't appear until after the first installment, you have yourself an Iconic Sequel Song. As mentioned above, related to Iconic Sequel Character, where it's the character him/her/itself that appears late. See also Bootstrapped Theme, which is when a particular song unofficially becomes the main theme of a particular franchise, as many of those listed below are bootstrapped themes for their franchises. |

Kane's most popular theme is "Slow Chemical" by Finger Eleven, his fifth overall theme. Unlike other examples, it didn't become permanent. None of his subsequent themes since have received much love from fans. | |

Cody Rhodes' most popular theme is "Kingdom" by Downstait, his post WWE theme since 2016. It helps that Cody began using the theme when he's establishing himself in the indies and his founding of AEW. In fact it's so popular that he gets to keep it upon his return to WWE in 2022. | |

Crash Bandicoot: The main recurring theme used throughout Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped would end up recycled in many later titles, becoming something of a Bootstrapped Theme for the series. The theme to Crash Twinsanity is one of the most popular songs amongst the fanbase. Twinsanity is the fifth main title. |

Drew McIntyre's most popular theme is "Broken Dreams" by Shaman's Harvest, which was only the third song he used in WWE. Fans were understandably outraged when WWE decided not to bring it back after he returned to the company in 2017 until its brief one-night return Clash at the Castle 2022. | |

Jeff Hardy didn't use "No More Words" until his ninth year as a wrestler, and his brother Matt only debuted "Live for the Moment" a few years beforehand. Jeff's previous theme "Loaded" is also iconic, but more associated with the brothers as a team than his solo career. | |

Eddie Guerrero's most popular theme was unquestionably "Lie, Cheat, Steal". It's actually a repurposed version of his and his nephew Chavo's theme as Los Guerreros. Eddie actually only used this theme from March 2004 to April 2005 after a Face–Heel Turn, and again upon turning Face again in October 2005 up until his unexpected death the following month (which very likely is what immortalized it as his theme). | |

The song most associated with Fullmetal Alchemist is "Again". It is the first opening theme from its second and more faithful adaption to anime, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Before Brotherhood existed, many American fans thought of the second opening "Ready Stady Go" as the first opening, mainly because for whatever reason [adult swim] skipped the actual first opening "Melissa" in favor of "Ready Steady Go" when they showed the series. | |

The most remembered theme in the Metal Gear franchise is "Encounter", which didn't appear until Metal Gear Solid, the third game in the series. The theme from the following game was this for a time, until Konami learned the hard way that Georgy Sviridov's estate didn't appreciate the overt similarities with his composition "The Winter Road". Also from Solid, there is "The Best is Yet to Come", along with "Snake Eater". These two are also among the most iconic songs of the series. | |

The Legend of Zelda: "Zelda's Lullaby" has appeared in almost every Zelda title, but it first appeared in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past as a tune associated with rescuing Zelda and the other kidnapped maidens. Likewise, the leitmotif for Ganon/Ganondorf isn't introduced until A Link to the Past, and then slightly expanded in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The Hyrule Castle theme, Kakariko Village theme, Fairy Fountain theme, and Master Sword theme are also first heard in A Link to the Past. The recurring themes for Zora's Domain, Saria's Song, Epona's Song, and Goron City first appeared in Ocarina of Time. "Ballad of the Goddess" debuted with The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and became an instant favorite. |

Super Mario Bros.: The recurring theme heard when rescuing Princess Peach made its debut in the original game, but Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels significantly expanded upon the theme by adding a new melodic section, which has since been included in most later games. Bowser's Airship Fleet didn't appear until Super Mario Bros. 3. Peach's Castle, Bob-Omb Battlefield, and Bowser's motif didn't appear until Super Mario 64. The theme for Gusty Garden Galaxy was introduced in the first Super Mario Galaxy. |

A few songs out of Red vs. Blue go this way (partly due to only bringing in Jeff Williams to do the music for Seasons 8-10). Despite being there from nearly the beginning and having a simple leitmotif, Tex's titular theme didn't come round till Season 8. Songs associated with the Meta, such as "When Your Middle Name Is Danger..." or "Plagam Extremam Infligere" didn't premiere until he did (naturally). The former came around in Season 6, the latter in Season 8. While Washington was involved in the series since the hiatus between Seasons 4 and 5, he didn't have a proper theme of his own until Season 9, as a recycled theme of the Project Freelancer faction. It didn't become exclusively his until Season 11, when the series was well past the Project Freelancer arc. Carolina's theme "Spiral", one of the series' iconic themes, didn't appear until she showed up in Season 9. |

"Happy" from Despicable Me 2. Pharrell Williams, the singer of "Happy" did the Title Theme Tune to the first film, but it was never as popular due to having a less universal context beyond the scope of the movie.

The Fast and the Furious: "See You Again" is by far the most famous song in the series, despite it not appearing until the seventh film in the series. The reason the song became so popular is because it was written as a tribute to star Paul Walker, who died in a car crash during filming. As such, it spend twelve weeks on the top of the pop charts. From the third movie, the main theme, "Tokyo Drift" by Teriyaki Boyz was also fairly popular, though this might be an inversion, since instead of the song reminding people of the franchise, mentioning the franchise will bring the song to mind immediately. |

As the music of the first game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series is not officially owned by Sega (aside from the Drowning Music), the series has relied on several other themes from later games: "His World" is often treated as Sonic's theme song, or the theme of the entire franchise, but it originates from Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). Shadow's theme in Sonic Adventure 2 was "Throw It All Away". His most iconic themes, "I Am... All Of Me" and "All Hail Shadow", didn't appear until Shadow the Hedgehog. The series is well-known for its lyrical theme songs but they didn't start becoming commonplace until 1998's Sonic Adventure. "Live and Learn" is one of the theme songs of the series but originates from Sonic Adventure 2. "Escape from the City" is another popular song from that game. |

The iconic "Real American" was actually Hulk Hogan's third theme, which he didn't start using until about halfway through his first WWF World Championship reign. His previous themes were "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor from Rocky III, which Hogan appeared in, and an instrumental song in between. While "Eye of the Tiger" is the most well-known song of the three, hardly anyone associates it with Hulk Hogan. | |

The closest thing to a song that represents the entire Lunar franchise would probably be "Thoughts Far Away". It made it debut in the original Sega CD version of Lunar: Eternal Blue under the name "At The Relief", although the remake of the first game added it back into the soundtrack as a recurring leitmotif. For those who have only played the remakes, "Thoughts Far Away" is associated more with the first game due to its prominence in the soundtrack compared to the sequel. | |

Rey Mysterio Jr.'s most popular theme is P.O.D.'s version of "Booyaka 619" (Rey himself sang the original version), which he didn't use until 2006 (he debuted in 1989) and has always used in WWE since then. | |

Bray Wyatt's most popular theme were either "Live in Fear" or "Let Me In" (the latter being Code Orange's cover/remix of the former when Wyatt made a gimmick change), as Wyatt's previous persona Husky Harris didn't really caught on. | |

Mega Man: If there was a song that would be forever considered the franchise's theme, it would likely be the title screen music... from the second game. The Mega Man X series' most definitive theme is the iconic "X vs. Zero", which debuted in the fifth game. The most iconic songs in the Mega Man Zero series are "Departure" and "Cannonball" from the second and [1] third games respectively. |

In Metroid, Samus Aran's theme, Ridley's theme, Kraid's theme, the Lower/Red Brinstar theme, and the Lower Norfair/Magmoor Caverns theme didn't appear until Super Metroid. Ridley's theme in particular also saw a harmonic portion added in Metroid Prime's Meta Ridley theme that has since been included in many of Ridley's boss themes, including in other titles such as Nintendo Land. | |

The most popular songs from How I Met Your Mother, intro music aside, are all absent during the inaugural season. Robin's "Let's Go to the Mall" and Marshall's favorite road jam "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" were both introduced in Season 2, while Barney's "Barney Stinson, that Guy's Awesome" and "Nothing Suits You Like A Suit" were respectively introduced in Seasons 4 and 5. Also, the titular Mother's acclaimed rendition of "La Vie en Rose" was sang in the final season. | |
