The song uses an upbeat, big-band jazz style, and the most noticeable feature is its lyrics, something very rarely heard in songs from the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series. The song has Pauline detailing an adventure across the worlds of ''Super Mario Odyssey'', referring to herself as [[Mario]]'s "1-Up Girl". A Japanese version of the song has its own lyrics, unique to the international version.{{ref needed}}
