All of the songs they chose are great, but I think anyone who has heard her two games' arrangements of Fly Me to the Moon and Moon River wish they could've made it in. Considering, however, that those two songs aren't even in the games' official soundtracks, it's highly unlikely they ever would. ScizorSteelix 16:07, 23 January 2016 (EST)

Relatedly, I'm not surprised they dropped the vocals on Mysterious Destiny and Tomorrow is Mine. I assume it's a case like Snake Eater in Brawl where licensing the vocals would've been more complicated. Thankfully, the tracks are still really good even without them.

I can see a minor problem with Fly me to The Moon and Moon River, considering those are copyrighted songs owned by other companies/singers. I imagine they had to pay huge rights to those songs just to have them in the Bayonetta games. So yeah, as much as I wanted them in SSB4, I understand why they're not.

As for music that could've been added but wasn't:

• Fortitudo - In Labors and Dangers (Bayo1)
• Sapientia - In the Choice Between Good and Evil (Bayo1)
• You May Call Me Father (Bayo1)
• The Greatest Jubilee (Bayo1)
• Valor - In Courage and Gallantry (Bayo2)
• Glamor - In Charm and Allure (Bayo2)
• Beyond Time (Bayo2)
• Gomorrah - Devourer Of The Divine (Bayo2)
• The Lumen Sage (Bayo2)

I have to stop myself before I mention every song in the game, but several of these are multipart songs, and they would have to be played in such a way that the parts would flow into each other. ScizorSteelix 21:37, 23 January 2016 (EST)

Oh man, You May Call Me Father and The Lumen Sage are some of my favorite tracks in the series, and would have loved to have them included in SSB4. I'm sad they arent, but you know what, this would make a good bonus music track if Bayonetta got a second stage in the next smash bros
