"Starship Mario"[2] is a musical theme composed by Koji Kondo for Super Mario Galaxy 2, where it plays on Starship Mario.

"Starship Mario" serves the same role in Super Mario Galaxy 2 as "Rosalina in the Observatory" did in Super Mario Galaxy. Both themes have three versions, each being more orchestrated than the previous, that correspond with the player's progression through the game. "Starship Mario 1" plays on Starship Mario after the player beats "Storming the Sky Fleet".

Super Mario Galaxy 2 marks the first appearance of "Starship Mario". Additional percussion is added to the instrumentation whenever the player rides a Yoshi. Both the original themes and their remixes return for the same purposes in the Nintendo Switch port, Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2. The themes are also included in the official Super Mario Galaxy 2 Original Soundtrack album.
