RE: Ken's theme. According to the composer, she had seen Top Gun, but hadn't deliberately ripped it off.
Xenon 2, Monkey Island and Portal all get props from me.

Castlevania IV (Title music) on Super Famicom (SNES) gets my vote though.

was joking tbh about the daytona music (i do love it's ott vocals though 🙂

Also like the below.
I'm amazed this thread has got so far and no-one has mentioned:
Which is just bonkers. No intro for a game has ever set the game up so wonderfully. I mean, listen to it- I'm cruising Liberty City in my mind, right now....

Cannon fodder would be my answer but this is a bit of a favourite too:
