Either the Rocky soundtrack or Top Gun...can't choose

And also the theme from "The Terminator."
The "flame horses" theme from "Krull" (though not my favorite fantasy film).
No "Psycho?" No love for Bernard Hermann? For shame...
"Psycho" is a classic film theme, as well as the opening credits for "North by Northwest" and "Vertigo," and it's the other-worldly love themes. Hermann is considered by many to be the finest composer of films scores in the history of film. I also can't forget the crescendo in "Journey to the Center of the Earth" as the party looks down into the gaping volcano.
I also like the music for Watership Down a lot.
Since this thread was started, I haven't been able to get the theme from Patton out of my head. The strange thing is that I remember only a few notes, but they are evocative of the feeling of the battlefield scenes in the movie and Patton's conviction that he'd had previous lives.
I love the music from Amelie!
A movie soundtrack CD I keep near the player is from the film
Siworae (Il Mare) 2000,one of my top ten Korean movies.I come home from a hard day at work,slap this in and let the cool chill-out jazz/piano/cello tracks,with snippits of film dialogue,drain the tensions of the day

Philip Glass' score for "Mashima."
The unforgettable and heart rending--"Strangers in the Night" by Frank Sinatra.
I forgot that was the main theme of "A Man Could Get Killed" and won a Golden Globe for best theme in a movie -- James Garner and Sandra Dee didn't win anything.
