…there’s one clear victor and it’s not even close…

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.

Turtle Woods from Crash Bandicoot 2 has never left me ever since I first played it on the PS1.

Megaman 2 Wily stage 1

I’ve got 3 that I randomly hum in my head every now and then.

1. Mega Man 2 - Airman stage
2. Jet Set Radio - Humming the Baseline
3. Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest - Daytime Town Theme

All versions of moon over the castle from the gran tursimo series, the version from GT4 goes hard.

for me it’s perhaps Metro Exodus end scene.

Hell March from Red Alert

Iunno how this wasn’t mentioned, but Payday 2 has a lot of catchy / going-hard songs.

Gonna leave 3:

1. Hot Pursuit
2. Evil Eye
3. The Mark

I’m locking my answer in on the old Minecraft music. Literally EVERYONE knows it.

Hang On main theme tune is excellent. The soundtrack to Hang-On and Super Hang-On are both top tier.

Naaaaa na-na-na-na-na-naaaa na na, na na na-na naaaaaaaa!

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.

1. Baba Yetu - Civ IV (+)

2. Hyrule Castle - Breath Of The Wild (+)

3. Lorule Castle - Link Between Worlds (*)

4. One Final Effort - Halo 3 (*)

5. Golem King - Moonlighter

6. Song of the Ancients - Nier Series (*)

7. Dragonborn - Skyrim

8. Far Horizons - Skyrim (+)

10. Nate’s Theme - Uncharted (*)

11. Gusty Garden Galaxy - Super Mario Galaxy (*)

16. 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:
