"The Finale" is the final song of Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas. It is sung when Jack Skellington returns to Halloween Town and the citizens rejoice for Jack's return. Later, Jack and the other citizens see Santa thanking Jack for helping him save Christmas, bringing snow to Halloween Town. During the last scene of the film, Jack and Sally sing together, confessing their love for each other as Zero watches happily.

Jack: My dearest friend, if you don't mind
I'd like to join you by your side
Where we can gaze into the stars
