==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Welcome Back is in 9/8 time, specifically felt like alternating 4/8 and 5/8 time.
* The majority of Welcome Back is in 9/4 time (grouped 4+5). Paige's interlude is in 4/4 time.
* Technically, Welcome Back is not the first level to tutorialize or use 5-beat defibrillation, that being [[Know You]].
* While Welcome Back is the first level to use a 5-beat long row, [[Know You]], [[Worn Out Tapes]], and [[Kingdom of Balloons]] all feature <code>xx----</code> patterns heavily, which functionally act the same.
** Additionally, 5-beat defibrillation is used even earlier in [[Worn Out Tapes]], albeit without a tutorial.
