A Gift For You – O.B.N.N

Snowdin Town – Undertale

This song works perfectly as background music, reminiscent of Undertale’s quaint snowy town (I’ll let you figure out the play on words in the song’s title). Contrary to its name, which invokes cold, this tune’s upbeat instrumentals compose a wonderfully calm melody that warms one’s heart.
