It appears mainly in the Opening Menu Screen as a Loop, but there is also a Reprise Version that plays After the Credits at the Last Screen, where your Report Results are. Kingdom Hearts II.

In Kingdom Hearts, Dearly Beloved was composed solely on the Piano, but in the Kingdom Hearts II Version, it was turned into an Orchestral Piece, even though the Piano still remains dominant.

It also appeared in every Kingdom Hearts game as of yet; including Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, which was a Remix of Dearly Beloved which included slightly different Note Pitch Changes.

Dearly Beloved has been thought as the Main Song of the Kingdom Hearts Series, and is loved by many fans solely for it's Ambience and Simplicity.
