The entire sountrack from the original Toejam & Earl on Genesis, shit rewired my child brain in funky new ways
Yup
Red Alert - Hell March https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HUWUtTZvK4
My suggestion was Red Alert too, but from 3. I will never know the words, but the tune lives in my heart.
Tetris Theme A.
OG Super Mario NES, World 1-1
This was a triumph...
I'm making a note here, huge success....
my hot take is that even though portal is a masterpiece this song is so cringe because i associate it with unfunny "the narwhal bacons at midnight" type redditors
You need to get out more.
The song is a masterpiece on its own.
the counterpoint to me not liking a song from a Video Game because it of its association with Internet Culture has to be something other than "get out more"
No, it's valid because the reason you claim for it to be bad in itself is kinda cringe
Tetris
One? Ill narrow it down to three,
These are all outstanding songs, but Lost Woods is the only one I'd describe as "catchy"
True, i agree with that. I will amend to be:
Does the Wii shop music count as a video game song?
My time has come. As someone who almost exclusively listens to instrumental soundtrack from movies and games, including from games I have never played, these are the ones that most often get stuck in my head (in no particular order). A plus "+" indicates a song that got stuck in my head regularly before I ever played the game, while an asterisk "*" indicates a song that still gets stuck in my head, despite being from a game I have never played at all.
Baba Yetu - Civ IV (+)
Hyrule Castle - Breath Of The Wild (+)
Lorule Castle - Link Between Worlds (*)
One Final Effort - Halo 3 (*)
Golem King - Moonlighter
Song of the Ancients - Nier Series (*)
Dragonborn - Skyrim
Far Horizons - Skyrim (+)
Dragon Roost Island - Wind Waker (*)
Nate's Theme - Uncharted (*)
Gusty Garden Galaxy - Super Mario Galaxy (*)
Korobeiniki - Tetris (+)
Gerudo Valley - Ocarina of Time (+)
Colgera Battle - Tears of the Kingdom
This Song - The Witcher 3 (It's the song Aen Seidhe, but without vocals)
Bloody Tears - Castlevania (*)
But finally, the song that I credit with making me obsessed with instrumental soundtrack, because I fell asleep with it playing on repeat for a whole night at the age of 5, and then lost the game cartridge, so I forgot what it was from, and which I would get stuck in my head roughly once a month throughout my entire childhood until I finally found the song THIRTEEN YEARS LATER:
Ω) Town Theme - Final Fantasy II
Borderlands 1 and 2 title songs
No rest for the wicked - cage the elephant
No heaven - dj champion
From memory, but I think those are right
Mega Man 2, Wily Stage 1: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aTbfpkByIM8&pp=ygUdbWVnYSBtYW4gMiB3aWx5IHN0YWdlIDEgbXVzaWM%3D
Heck. Half the Mega Man 2 sound track is probably in the top ten.
I still credit the Wood Man stage music for providing me focus and making it through a downpour on an unfamiliar highway with construction.
Yeah, Wood Man might be my #2. Possibly Metal man, too, though.
Hell March from Red Alert
I can hear this comment
Yeah that's why I didn't link it. I can hear the riff and even play the riff on guitar on a moments notice
Friend says "play me something" and I immediately play that riff
bfg division? maybe the katamari theme song.
i play a lot of shmups and their songs are often stuck in my head, most recently some stuff from raycrisis. fire emblem warriors songs get stuck in my head as well.

Hell yeah, Tim Follin is a god.
"Tim, would you mind making the music for our Ghouls and Ghosts Commodore port?"
"No problem, here's 9 full length tracks spanning 22 minutes including a 4 minute long title screen song. I hope that's enough. I hope I got the screams right..."
