    Talking Songs that get stuck in your head whether you like them or not.

    Many of us know that music is a huge part of games it keeps your attention and tugs at you at the worst possible times.

    Anyways here's the thread to let us know what songs you get stuck in your head provided you like them or not

    Example: Crank The Heat Up, Aerith's Theme
    Like Dont like (almost makes me cry no like crying)
    Layin down enjoying the fun unleashing the power of the sun and capturing them all until I'm done.

    Well, about games I cannot really recall one.
    (except a case I mentioned in another thread but I do not want to repeat myself... )

    I play retro-games most of the time and, since the songs that usually "get stuck" in my mind
    are the ones with lyrics, that does not happen much with games. More with Anime and songs
    that I happen to listen on the radio, etc.

    But when a game has a boring part that lasts for too long and the music is always the same
    and keeps looping, yeah, it can get stuck. I am thinking now of one: Lavander Town in Red/Blue.

    I sometimes find myself singing songs that I quite hate though.
    Happened a lot more when we had TV, because the commercials repeated so much.
    One day, I unconsciously sang more than 3 times a song from a "supermarket" jingle, and had to
    say to myself: hey, you, quit it already! I hate that song!

    ... ... so, yeah.

    Not my favorite game music ever or anything (but undeniably good), the music of Mario games gets stuck and I mean STUCK in my old drybone skull for days on end at times. Good stuff.

    I don't actually remember the song, but the final boss theme of Donkey Kong Country used to be my favourite song ever! (I was 7). I remember humming it all the time for weeks. But then I learned how to whistle, and now, every game I'm playing at the moment, I tend to whistle the main theme, like The Witcher main theme (so epic), The Elder Scrolls main theme (being the Skyrim version the best), and from one game that I don't play for ages but I still whistle its main theme: The Godfather theme. I never watched the movies or anything, but in the game, anytime you enter a car those songs start playing, and well, got stuck forever.

    The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time got me whistling many of the Ocarina songs as well. I got this thing from my father, since all the time he whistles, I've learned with him, and got the same old men habit. But I still cannot reach the higher notes.

    For me it's Final Fantasy V's "Clash on the Big Bridge" (or "Battle on the Big Bridge". Really, that thing's title swaps around a bit, but there's usually some confrontation and a bridge involved ). Whoo Gilgamesh.

    Also, some neat choices here, and a few I didn't expect. Mario was a bit of a given, but a few of the Sonic themes I didn't expect. Good choice for Rooftop Run though Darkseid. And Crank the Heat Up Pokemongenius, another good choice.

    ...god, I'm a fanboy, aren't I? Oh well, I stand by the fact that it's good music, fanboyism or no.

    Don't know most of the other themes mentioned here, I'll admit. I might go through links at some point. (Thanks for those Darkseid)

    Since I played Ar Tonelico 2 about five years ago, this song has pretty much been on loop in my head. I whistle it so much while pottering around the house that even my family probably know the melody off by heart now. :'D

    That is... catchy as hell. And thanks to it, I've suddenly remembered that I have both AT games for PS2 but have yet to play them. And now I kinda have the urge to do so. What have you done, woman. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE.


    Anyway, mine's this:

    The theme song to Vanguard Bandits, BECAUSE IT'S FREAKING AWESOME! Haven't played it in years, still know the lyrics.

    Oh, and according to the youtube comments this opening is EXTREMELY RARE. I had no idea.



    Edit: THE FUCK!? VB HAD ALTERNATIVE OPENINGS DEPENDING ON WHICH PATH YOU WERE PLAYING!?!?!??!
