Retro music! You are speaking my language!

I don't know how old/average age of the population here on VGChartz, but I'd like to know what one classic/retro game music, when heard still makes you smile and reminisce the olden days?

One? There's no way I can do that. In fact, I just posted a bunch of my favourite old chiptunes in the soundtrack thread the other day. I'll post the appropriate section here...

Yuzo Koshiro! Another of my favourites! Well, except for Streets of Rage 3 - I really don't know what went wrong there. But otherwise, he made some of the best music for the time.

Keep the Groovin' - Streets of Rage...

Long Distance - Revenge of Shinobi...

Chinatown - Revenge of Shinobi...

In fact, I love those 16-bit chiptunes in general. It's always impressed me how they were able to synthesize such catchy music with what was, in retrospect, extremely weak hardware. Here are some more of my old favourites...

The Grubby Dark Blue - Thunder Force 3...

Back to the Fire - Thunder Force 3...

Flugelheim Museum - Batman...

Gotham City Streets 1 - Batman...

Gotham City Streets 2 - Batman...

After Burner Theme - After Burner 2...

Um... yeah... I could go on almost indefinitely but this is already too long so I'll leave it at that.

ColdFire - The man with no name.

Super Metroid is absolutely amazing. I also love every level's music in DooM and DooM 2. Streets of Rage 2 was way ahead of its time and really gets stuck in your head as well.
